This entire year we’ve been talking about under-performance in the mid-cap and small-cap segments of the market. To take advantage of that we’ve wanted to be shorting, or at least avoiding longs in, the weakest names in sectors like Public Sector Banks, Infrastructure, Metals, Media, Realty, etc. Last month many of our downside price targets were hit from a tactical perspective and we took a more neutral approach, waiting for better entries on the short side. Now that we’ve seen a multi-week bounce off the lows in the mid and small-cap indexes, we’re going to revisit the space for the best reward/risk setups on the short side.

China Under-Performance and The US Equity Market
From the desk of Tom Bruni @BruniCharting
Every so often we hear the narrative that under-performance from China’s stock market is a canary in the coal mine for US Equities, and the recent tariff tantrums have brought this discussion front and center. Today I want to look at this relationship to see if it has any merit or if it’s just a smart sounding soundbite that you can use around the office water cooler.
Fresh Breakouts In This Leading Sector
From the desk of Tom Bruni @BruniCharting

The index has 57 components, but because the top 10 stocks make up roughly 60% of the index, opportunities in the smaller components tend to be overlooked by many market participants. In this post I want to look at all of its components and highlight names where our risk is well-defined and the reward/risk is still skewed in our favor. [Read more…]
