A key broad market gauge is potentially breaking a major line of support...

As our Chart Of The Day shows, the VLG closed yesterday below the bottom of its 8-month trading range.


So what is the technical significance of this development? Is it the end of the road for the bull? First of all, it confirms the late-July false breakout and projects a move lower. Secondly, the loss of the range support opens the door for such a move. Just how much of a drop are we talking about? And can a recovery negate this breakdown?

"Investing in Phase 3 is a dangerous game. Equity markets are moving into overshoot mode. This is nice while it lasts, but the Dreaded Phase 4 may not be too far awayThis is when a global recession pushes both equities and credit into a bear market. Bubbles collapse... In 2007, Phase 3 lasted only 4 months."
The unspoken, if all too familiar, message was that riskier financial assets, such as credit and equities, have been artificially boosted by central bank actions, actions which are soon coming to an end whether voluntarily in the case of the Fed, or because the central bank is simply running out of eligible bonds to monetize, in the case of the ECB and BOJ.


In short, King is worried the global market is about to enter another tantrum.
Is he right?

To answer that question, another Citi strategist, Robert Buckland, admitting that "we are (always) worried", takes a look at where we currently stand in the business cycle as represented by Citi's Credit/Equity clock popularized also by Matt King in previous years.


For those unfamiliar, here is a summary of the various phases of the business cycle clock:

  • Phase 1: Debt Reduction – Buy Credit, Sell Equities
Our clock starts as the credit bear market ends. Spreads turn down as companies repair balance sheets, often through deeply discounted share issues. This dilution, along with continued pressure on profits, keeps equity prices falling. For the present cycle, this phase began in December 2008 and ended in March 2009. Global equities fell another 21% even as US spreads tightened.

  • Phase 2: Profits Grow Faster Than Debt – Buy Credit, Buy Equities
The equity bull market begins as economic indicators stabilise and profits recover. The credit bull market continues as improving cashflows strengthen company balance sheets. It’s all-round risk-on. This is usually the longest phase of the cycle. This began in March 2009, and according to most Wall Street analysts, is the phase we find ourselves in right now. Equity and credit investors both do well in this phase.

  • Phase 3: Debt Grows Faster Than Profits – Sell Credit, Buy Equities
This is when credit and equities decouple again. Spreads turn upwards as fixed income investors become increasingly worried about deteriorating balance sheets. But equity markets keep rallying as EPS rise. Share prices are also boosted by the effects of higher corporate leverage, often in the form of share buybacks or M&A. This is the time to favour equities over credit.

  • Phase 4: Recession – Sell Credit, Sell Equities
In this phase, equities recouple with credit in a classic bear market. It is associated with a global recession, collapsing EPS and worsening balance sheets. Insolvency fears plague the credit market, profit warnings plague the equity market. It’s all-round risk-off. Cash and government bonds are usually the best-performing asset classes.

The reason why Citi is concerned where exactly in the business cycle the US economy and capital markets are to be found at this very moment, is that as Goldman showed recently, corporate leverage has never been higher...

"...during the last 19 months the Red Ponzi propagated a false upturn in the global economy that is already decisively reversing. This comes at the same time that central banks of the major developed world economies are finally bringing their printing presses to a halt... the morning-after toll will be especially severe and disruptive - this used to be called a 'depression'..."

"For decades the liberal/progressive/left has invested heavily in driving people apart. Black studies, women’s studies, and Native American studies can easily cross into propaganda that generates hatred...

"The Trump presidency that we fought for, and won, is over," Steve Bannon said on Friday. "We still have a huge movement, and we will make something of this Trump presidency. But that presidency is over. It’ll be something else. And there’ll be all kinds of fights, and there’ll be good days and bad days, but that presidency is over.”

"The removal of Bannon is the end of even a facade of populism. This is now the Goldman Sachs Presidency with a thin-skinned, unthinking authoritarian as a figurehead."

"While nobody with any sense can find any logic in the far-right racist groups like the Nazis or the Klukkers vs. Black Lives Matters' media power - and the fear many have of being labeled a racist for opposing them will continue to give haters on the far left the power to rewrite American history."

Marco Rubio openly incites to violence

"In a truly 'free' society, no one gets beaten up for their political views. Laws cannot be passed against thoughts or symbols. And mob violence is not allowed to rule the day. But Florida Senator Marco Rubio, like most establishment political hacks, is not interested in a free society. He’s interested in seizing power in any way possible."

Global depression is on…China, RU, Iran search for State socialis+K- compet. D rest in limbo


Just when China is starting to offer an alternative—an alternative that the US should be trying to bury—the US is moving to “weaponize” the dollar and pound other nations—even those as geo-strategically vital as Russia—for simple domestic political reasons. It all seems so short-sighted.
