Our Top 10 report was just published. In this weekly note, we highlight 10 of the most important charts or themes we're currently seeing in asset classes around the world.
Whipsaws Around The World
One of the most common characteristics of choppy markets are whipsaws. The chart below is a great example of this kind of price action, and we’re seeing it all over the place of late. Many risk assets recently violated key levels of support, but ultimately repaired the damage and reclaimed them. This type of action continues to reiterate that while the market is bending, it’s not breaking. The list of new lows in our internal breadth metrics remains muted, and critical indices and commodities, such as Energy, continue to hold their heads above important levels.
There’s an old adage that “from failed moves come fast moves in the opposite direction." Is this what could spark the next leg higher for the market? Time will certainly tell, but it’s leaning in that direction, at least in the near term.
