Recently, I have been collaborating on a research project with Arun Chopra, an experienced investor and good friend who holds a CFA and CMT. Together, we have been blending longer-term fundamental indicators with technical indicators to do historical studies. If you like what you see here, note that we will be launching a subscription service soon.
Today, we take a closer look at the S&P 500 Index (INDEXSP:.INX).  More specifically, can the S&P 500 July breakout continue into late summer/fall without the assistance of China, the transports, and crude oil?
Here area few nuggets of interest to keep an eye on:
- Spring/Summer 2015, Transports and China topped, Oil bounce topped, Yield Curve and Yuan broke down.
- These traditional “growth” indicators have continued sideways to down.
- While S&P 500 has v-shaped repeatedly off these and other scares (Iran, terror, Brexit, EU).
- The rebounds ostensibly lie on the backs of further easing from global central banks (Helicopters).
We often ask rhetorically: “It doesn’t matter until it does”? (in terms of divergences)
With the S&P 500 reaching new highs this Summer (Brexit bounce/jobs data), is Everything Awesome? Will the S&P 500 July breakout stick?
Does it matter in a world of central bank “whatever it takes”? Â Extra Credit:
“Everything is Awesome” bounces
Thanks for reading and best of luck out there.
