The financial markets always look ahead...
Preview from my weekly report:
Summary and Conclusion
• Potential stock market risks outweigh potential rewards at this time. It is seems most prudent to take advantage of current high prices to reduce risks.
• Investor confidence appears to be entirely based on faith in the Fed and other global monetary authorities continuing to flood the global financial system with ever more massive quantities of fiat currency created out of thin air and backed by nothing.
• Debasement of fiat currency has limits, however. "Printing money" by the trillions is neither a prudent nor a sustainable monetary policy. Some Fed insiders already openly express concern about easy money creating distortions in capital allocation and blowing a dangerous monetary bubble that could burst and cause a financial crash and economic depression. Unprecedented monetary stimulus risks disruptive cross-border spillovers and potentially heavy losses when the time comes to exit, according to a report by the International Monetary Fund.
• The financial markets always look ahead, attempting to anticipate future events, and so markets will begin to anticipate an end to Quantitative Easing at some point. When they do, a reversion to the mean may be swift and severe, deflating asset price bubbles overnight, in other words, creating a sudden market shakeout or a crash. The risk is there, although the timing is uncertain.
• Some, but not all, technical price momentum indicators for the stock market continue to show bearish divergences. Such divergences raise caution flags for the months ahead.
• Investor sentiment is excessively bullish, another caution flag. The majority of investors are more bullish than they have been in years. The uptrend seems to be feeding on itself, with higher prices creating greater demand--but that can't last.
• It is not a "new era" or a "new bull market" for stocks, as some of the fully-invested cheerleaders talking their position in the main stream media would have us believe. Stock prices have been rising for more than 4 years already, since March, 2009, so the bull market is now very old. History shows that markets have always been cyclical, and major stock market price trends seldom last more than a few years before reversing. Bear markets naturally follow bull markets as night follows day.
• Seasonally, in years past, the summer months have seen many significant stock market declines.

Analysis of market forces may offer a sense of probabilities. But the many variables that can impact market prices are notoriously difficult to predict. And, market analysis is something less than an exact science. So, sound trading tactics are always recommended. See my Money Management Rules.

According to CFTC Rule 4.41, hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not been executed, the results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profit or losses similar to those shown.
My ETF Rankings are not investment advice. Rather, they are an objective ongoing research study.
