  1. Now that's a bullish chart... Oh... wait The Rhymes of History
  2. Well, it's hard when you're 32, but soft when you're 72.
  3. Oh my goodness, I have no idea. I just look at aggregates. This is no surprise and is going exactly as forecast when the Fed started QT. It's direct cause and effect. Yet somehow, people are surprised that deposits are declining. It was a given as soon as QT became policy. As far as parsing what kinds of deposits they are, that's above my pay grade. 😊 Nor do I see the value in that kind of detail. But I have probably used the words crash and accident interchangeably in my reports for the last 18 months. 😊 That the Fed wouldn't change anything until after it happened.
  4. 5 day cycle projection drops to 4230. Hard to believe harry.
  5. The Italian pulled pork version is my favorite. It's greasier and more flavorful than the sliced version.
  6. Weeks ago I began ruminating in my real work, that being Liquidity Trader, and in this case the Technical Trader reports, whether the coming 6 month cycle low would be a nice soft rounded bottom, or a vicious, violent V. There's really no way to know until the process is under way. I bet on the benign, despite warnings from my liquidity research that a very significant top was forming. Well, now we know. V it is. Victory for the bears. Vomit for the bulls. Early bottom pickers (comme moi) have gotten bombed over the past few days. You pays your money and you takes your chances. I am pleased that my liquidity analysis did show as early as July, the beginnings of an important stock market top. It has also led to a consistently and relentlessly bearish conclusion about the bond market. There's no way around the fact that until the Fed gets back into the business of buying Treasuries in massive size this won't change. Bond fund holders are doomed. If you are rich enough to buy them outright and hold them until they mature, then you don't need my research or anyone else's. Clip those coupons baby! Do they still have paper Treasuries with coupons? In today's news, the Phillies are back in the playoffs and the Eagles are 3-0. I don't know whether this is bullish or bearish. But I'm happy tonight. I'm not fearing any man because I have seen the promised land. It's a roast pork sandwich shop in S. Philly near the stadium complex. As for the secondary matter of today's market, 4260 was the number to look for on the 5 day cycle projection. 4270 on the 2-3 day. Been there, done that, and there's a big positive divergence on the hourly oscillators on the ES, 24 hour S&P futures. So it looks like a bottom. But I said the same thing yesterday. Fool my once shame on you yadda yadda. Make no mistake what happened yesterday was a new bear market confirmation signal. But the first leg is well advanced. Prime Time for Danger and Opportunity As for swing trades, I will probably try- buy a few on the dip. But I'm pretty bloody from yesterday. Can I muster the stupidity to try again? If I do, I will hold with tender fingers, dripping with the fat and juice and fixins of a DiNic's Roast Pork sandwich. A sandwich that was once a pig. And now you know the rest... of the story. As for the bond market, permit me to repost my now world famous Hindenburg Omen chart of the TLT that I first published 18 months ago.

  7. The technical side and the liquidity analysis have been at odds recently. The liquidity side had been warning that a significant top was under way, but the technical side as I interpreted it said, not yet. I leaned to hard on that. It was wrong.
  8. I think that maybe long is wrong. This is very humbling. I have handled this miserably on the technical side. Cue Jimmy Swaggert apology.
  9. The market has completed and broken a huge top here that began forming in June. Prime Time for Danger and Opportunity
  10. The world didn't break when rates were 16%. It won't break now. There will be losses, for sure, but a good cleanse never hurts.
