Trends unchanged
US STOCKS
For roughly 2 ½ months stocks
have been declining. Dave Moening of “StateoftheMarkets.com”, whom I hold in
high regard, has recently penned that
investor’s sentiment is very bearish, and hence, a rally is to be expected.
He writes that the odds now
favor that one month from now stocks will have advanced. However, I feel this would be
a mere secondary reaction (to be faded) under a primary bear market, since a
primary bear market for stocks was signaled on December 11, 2015. After such a
signal stocks have fallen in earnest.
Furthermore, a very long term
“sell” signal (Dow Theory applied to weekly bars) was flashed on January 8th,
2016, as explained here:
Thus, both the intermediate
trend and the very long term trend have turned bearish in unison. Nothing is
certain, but technically stocks are screaming “bear market”. Therefore, it
seems likely that stocks are close to a rally of secondary proportions.
However, such a bounce has high odds of fizzling out.
