Classic BTFD Setup Or Not

Lee Adler

This report has the answer and an idea about how to play it.

The 10-12 month cycle may have bottomed in May, with a high due in xxxxxxxxx. I like to focus on the six month cycle, which should be turning up in the near term. That is not quite confirmed, but it’s xxxxx. Any xxxxxxx xxxxxx should xxxxx it. Non subscribers click here to access.

With the 6-month cycle due to xxxx xxxxxxxxx soon, I’d place my bets on the xxxxxx here. It looks like a quintessential xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxx. The 6-month cycle down phase was xxxxxx. That’s often a setup that leads to xxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx in the up phase. Non subscribers click here to access.

Beware! Jobs Really Much Weaker Than They Say

Lee Adler

In the early August update we saw that withholding tax collections had gone flat. They have not improved since then. Collections remain weak. Non-subscribers, click here for access.

BLS jobs reports have begun to adjust to that fact with tepid growth reported for August, but the reality is much worse. Over time the numbers will reflect that. But we don’t know when. Nor do we know how the market will react to the news when that adjustment finally comes. Non-subscribers, click here for access.

We do know however, that weak tax collections mean bigger deficits. Bigger deficits mean more supply. For the time being there are no increases scheduled in long term paper during the current quarter or Q4. The supply hits will come in the T-bills. And that often works in favor of stocks as market participants use the bills for collateral. It means more money and more leverage. Stock prices rise, but the system grows increasingly fragile as leverage increases. Non-subscribers, click here for access.

We live in “interesting” times, and the longer this goes on, the more interesting it becomes. There’s opportunity, and there’s risk. This report should help you take advantage of the former and minimize the latter. Non-subscribers, click here for access.

Gold Makes Case for Synchronized Low

Lee Adler

The case for a 9-12 month cycle bottom and resynchronization of the 13-week cycle continues to build. A move xxxx xxxx would support that view and a xxxxxxx xxxx xxxx would confirm. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Last Week Was Solid, Adding Longs Now

Lee Adler

The screens produced 29 charts with multiple buy signals as of the last two trading days. There were 25 charts with a second sell signal. Those were small numbers on both sides by recent standards.

Here’s Why Gold Needs 2020 Vision

Lee Adler

Short term cycles have bottomed and there are hints of a bottom in the xxxx month cycle. A daily close above xxxx would tend to confirm that. The 13-week cycle would resync with the bigger cycle if that happens. But it’s too early to tell if that would lead to the 6-month cycle getting in gear also. A xxxxxxxxx xxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx 2020 would give xxxxxxxxx xxxxxx xxxxx on that. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Here’s Why This Is a No Clickbait Market for Primary Dealers

Yesterday’s bond market rally appears to be but a brief respite in a relentless trend toward lower prices and higher yields. A reaction rally is nothing new, and isn’t likely to change the fact that a market steadily getting pounded with new supply when dealers are already net long, will continue to see generally lower prices until something changes. Change is xxxxxx xxxxxxxxx current picture, xxxx xxxxx xxxxxx xxxxx xxxxxx future.

That rally in the bond market notwithstanding, there’s no reason to change my long-term xxxxxxxxx view of the bond market. The pressure on bond prices ultimately will exact a price on stocks as well.

However, the key word is “ultimately.” These are not market timing measures. They merely provide context. These measures of primary dealer market risk say yes, there’s risk, but they are not at xxxxxxxxx that suggest an xxxxxxxxxxxxxx that stock prices are xxxxxxxxxxx another major xxxxxxxxxx.

This is just a lukewarm endorsement of the bullish trend in stock prices for most of this year. The pullback of the last month does not appear to be in the context of xxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx , either in technical terms or in terms of the liquidity context represented in this data.

All things considered, I can only endorse xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx chart opportunities on xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxthe ledger, as opposed to xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. Non-subscribers, click here for access.

Gold and Miners Set Up Ugly

Lee Adler

A 4-week cycle low is overdue but there’s a projection of xxxx for that time frame and xxxx for the 13-week cycle. A daily close below xxxx would create a big top pattern with a conventional measured move implication of xxxx. The miners look even worse.  Non-subscribers click here for access.
