Is It a Bear Market Yet? 9/24/21


Recommended Posts

The market peaked yesterday afternoon around 2 PM at 4458 on the ES S&P futures. In the short short run, it was a higher high. But in the longer short run, since the September 6 high, it was a lower high. 

So is the short term trend bullish or bearish? 

It all depends on what happens here at 6:15 AM in New York. There are support lines at 4425 and 4417 and then around 4415 at about the time New York opens for trading. If they hold, then the short short term bullish trend still rules. If they fail to hold, then 4380 would beckon. At that level the market would make a decision about the future of the world as we know it.

2-3 day cycle projection says we're going to 4420 here.

All it was Short covering and bulls Buying. Double rocket fuel. Nothing has changed. 

Fake break down was followed by Fake breakout.

Today will find out if Bulls have any more rocket fuel for another Huge green candle.

A lesson I learned early is that there is nothing new in Wall Street. There can't be because speculation is as old as the hills. Whatever happens in the stock market today has happened before and will happen again.

my guess is the 2 Treasury year note saw very little of that T-Bill paydown?

RRP slush fund, i.e. the institutional money fund of money market funds rose by $70 billion yesterday, and they only withdrew about $40 billion today.  The rest is still sitting there. Over the last week it is up $96 billion.

We need to be clear again about where that $69 billion came from. Yesterday the US Treasury paid down $86 billion in T-bills. $17 billion went somewhere else. Just a coincidence of course that stocks rose a zillion points. No causal relationship there. No sir.
