Market/ETF Review and Outlook Video
Weakness is widespread throughout the stock market, and other markets. The Composite Breadth Model is and remains bearish. fewer than 20% of S&P 1500 stocks are above their 200-day SMAs and yield spreads show stress in the credit markets. Almost all stock-based ETFs are in downtrends and most of the alternative ETFs are also in downtrends (bonds, gold, silver, the DB Agriculture ETF and the DB Base Metals ETF). Oil, the Dollar and a few agricultural-related ETFs are holding up, but the pickings are slim, very slim. Although I am not predicting a 2007-2009 style bear market, today’s video starts with this period and shows that the Composite Breadth Model was bearish for well over a year.
