This chart below tells a great story.

Want to know what's happening in the Stock Market? Here's a pretty good one that helps explain:

Remember, historically the S&P Industrials have the highest positive correlation with the S&P500, of all the Sectors. It's probably because it's so diversified: Airlines, Heavy Machinery, Human Resources, Railroads, Logistics Companies, Engineering, Trucks, Security & Alarm Services, Defense Companies and the list goes on.

We came into last week wondering if we'd get follow through from Bank stocks.

I think we can all agree that we did. And not just in the U.S. but around the world.

Here are Regional Banks above those key 2018 highs:

There are few things as bullish as Regional Bank stocks acting well.

The talk around town this week is the potential "double bottom" in US Interest Rates. 

You can see that here along with the higher low in the highly correlated Regional Bank stocks:

Is the resiliency in Copper pointing to higher rates?

You can see Copper relative to Gold here and how closely the ratio moves with rates:

I rip through more charts than almost anyone in the world. 

Here's the bottom line. Some stocks are going up, most stocks are not.

That's the answer.

You want know what's up? That's the deal.

So are more stocks going to start going up too? 

Maybe.

But right now that's the trend. Mostly a choppy sideways hot mess, with some stocks resolving those consolidations higher.

One thing I will add, however, is the lack of downside resolutions.

We're just not seeing these stocks and indexes breaking down and holding down. Or at least, we're not seeing more and more of them do that.

I've also promised you guys that I would do my best to highlight the work of some of my friends who I think do a good job of analyzing markets. 

So today I want to show you a seasonal chart from Ari Wald, Head of Technical Analysis at Oppenheimer.

The main chart represents the US Presidential Cycle peaking in the 3rd quarter of Post-Election years. That's this quarter.

What are these falling rates suggesting for the rest of this summer?

I think this one tells an interesting story. I believe there are implications here for small-caps.

An upside resolution in $IWM likely means rates have found a floor:

But they still have some work to do. 

There are stocks going up and there are stocks that are not going up.

What you're not really seeing is many stocks going down.

That's probably the best way to describe this market.

We've outlined our long positions, particularly those that have been showing relative strength and positive momentum. Those areas are working.

But most stocks are not.

You can see the difference in the Value Line indexes, when we compare them to the S&P500. Think of these more of the "Median" stock:

You can see the same thing in other areas we look for confirmation of risk appetite. Both the Aussie/Yen and the High Beta / Low Volatility ratios are not confirming the new highs in S&Ps:

One thing that stood out to me this week was the relentless amount of mixed intermarket signals.

On one hand, we have Lumber Futures getting completely destroyed. When I've ignored Lumber in the past, it's been a mistake.

This is probably something we shouldn't ignore:

On the other hand, if things were about to get worse for the Stock market, then why are Consumer Staples and Utilities both making new relative lows?

One thing that stood out to me this week was this table of new highs and new lows. It's a great way to visualize what's going on underneath the surface:

I also see here how investors have way too much exposure to stocks, compared to historical measures. We're seeing this in other sentiment data too.

But here's the Household Asset Allocation Stocks vs Bonds ratio:

One thing that stood out to me this week is the lack of deterioration underneath the surface.

We're just not getting an expansion in new lows.

Fewer new highs? Yes definitely. For a while now.

But more new lows? 

Not broadly speaking yet, no.
