Volatility rising and widening across asset classes internationally now. Its all part of the normal historic trend of rising volatility pre a trend change, imo. I wouldn’t go aggressively short yet but it was correct to move to a high cash level as of a month or so ago. Here a few updates: Firstly GS: …

We are in the final stages of this 6 year bull market. Europe appears to have already set her highs. World indexes also appear to have topped out. The wild card is the US where the Fed continues to talk rising rates and pipeline ever improving data. The US$ is at her supports and on …
Equities are bouncing off some key levels. Europe is seeing high volatility as speculators look to hedge euro weakness and the grexit issue comes and goes. Technically a corrective bounce aside unless we see a reversal in the multi month technicals we should see many indexes fail to achieve higher highs here to confirm a …

The bond markets are continuing to drive this weakness in risk asset markets here. Volatility is rising considerably across bond and equity markets though particularly in non US markets. The Sp500 and other US indexes still show as many technical signs of a continuation as opposed to any trend change move, for now. European markets …

FX markets are once again the scene of extreme volatility which is feeding negatively into European stock prices. We have many cross winds here from technical non confirmations of the recent highs to currency confusion and increasing bond volatility. Ftse100 has dropped below her multi month uptrend line support which is a bearish and needs …

Contrary to what many market pundits have been writing this bull market lives on and is moving higher, for now. There are all sorts of technical and fundamental issues with these new highs but we are paid on price and price is showing that another leg albeit on low momentum is in progress here. I …

Euro asset markets have bounced off some key technical levels (especially euro equity indexes) which has been important to at least halt this recent weakness. US indexes like the dow and sp500 have made new record highs, albeit with low momentum thus far. Technical issues remain of course like breath divergences as well as lead …
2015 was always going to be a volatile year. US markets have stalled in terms of momentum and selectivity is rising but I agree with the Swiss team that, for now the bull trend is holding and certainly above 2077 sp500 the trend remains our friend and is higher. Europe’s sell off is entering an …

Its been another very busy week of short term currency trading. There has been stellar momentum in FX markets. Positionally its been correct to shift FX book inline with a weakening US$ to provide a warm US$ tailwind to the long book. It was correct to shift out of the US$ cash and only cover …

Its time for another technical run through of the major asset markets. We have continued to chop up directionally across all asset classes here from equities to fx. We are looking for direction which is neatly reflected in the latest cftc report. Some profit taking and paring of positions but no trend changes, as yet. …
