Stocks, Bonds, Crypto, & Copper Soar As Confidence Crashes Near Decade-Lows

...remain a slave to illusion (stocks 1% from record high); or a slave to reality (sentiment at 10 year lows)...

This week was a tale of two halves. Stonks chopped lower into Wednesday morning, bounced off an opening dump then accelerated (despite The Fed Minutes signaled considerably more hawkish taper and rate-trajectory expectations). Nasdaq was the week's biggest gainer (thanks to Small Caps puke today) and The Dow underperformed but only modestly...

Traders Are Pushing Oil, Rates, & The Dollar. Are They Right?

Are they right? Or, are they about to get smacked by a slower economy and deflationary headwinds?

Currently, net shorts on the VIX are still very elevated but reduced from 2020 levels. However, speculators have once again started to increase their net short-positioning over the last several weeks as the market declined.

See Chart:

https://cms.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/COT-VIX-101121.png?itok=RWmpZIz5

Currently, traders are more aggressively long contracts suggesting rates could still rise a bit further. However, while there is upside to rates, it is likely limited to less than 2% before economic growth gets impacted.

See Chart:

https://cms.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/COT-InterestRates-101121-1024x508.png?itok=E2iqqn14

Conclusion

The markets are oversold enough on a short-term basis to rally. However, numerous headwinds are mounting from higher rates, inflation, oil prices, and the dollar. So while traders are piling into inflationary trade, they are likely going to be disappointed.

The biggest problem is that technical indicators do not distinguish between a consolidation, a correction, or an outright bear market. As such, if you ignore the signals as they occur, by the time you realize it’s a deep correction, it is too late to do much about it.

I suggest that with our “sell signals” triggered, taking some action could be beneficial.

Trim back winning positions to original portfolio weights: Investment Rule: Let Winners Run
Sell positions that simply are not working (if the position was not working in a rising market, it likely won’t in a declining market.) Investment Rule: Cut Losers Short
Hold the cash raised from these activities until the next buying opportunity occurs. Investment Rule: Buy Low

There is minimal risk in “risk management.” In the long term, the results of avoiding periods of severe capital loss will outweigh missed short-term gains.
