First, the market celebrates any progress or less than bad news on China tariffs. As it was widely expected $200 billion more but at 10% to start vs the 25% as feared. A slight concession by the US. The tariffs go into effect on September 24th, a little earlier than expected and before the first talks start on September 28th. The Chinese are still very unclear who they are dealing with as the decision maker is Trump. Apple was exempt from tariffs thanks to Tim Cook's dinner with
Trump recently. Expect the Chinese to retaliate further to where it will start to be felt in the US.
Second, bond yields continue to climb and I expect them to move further with relatively low DeMark Countdowns on the upside and sentiment that is just now starting to move lower. Some people has expected the great rotation out of bonds into stocks to happen but it will likely mean people long bonds and bond funds will just see lower values on their investments.
Third, Elon Musk and Tesla are now under criminal investigation. The stock is down about 5%. Not only are they looking into his "Funding Secured" tweet but other statements that were possibly materially false. This is not good for Elon and Tesla as he owns 30% of the company and is levered extensively with the possibility of a margin call if the stock dropped below 250. I have heard it might be closer to 200 but breaking that important level of 250 would break the cabal of
tightly held mutual fund long holders. Think before you Tweet.
Website is coming along and hopefully we can roll out this week. Again, if any client would like a free copy of Jason Perl's excellent book "DeMark Indicators" please email me your address and I will send you a copy.

DEMARK SCREENS - Daily, Weekly, Monthly Upside/Downside Exhaustion Signals
|
|
|
Daily/Weekly DeMark upside/downside exhaustion signals (Sequential) weekly updated on Monday's and monthly on the first day of the new month. Price flips occur when a stock closes higher/lower than four previous closes and increases conviction of a price turn.
The upside 13's are sell signals and downside 13's are buy signals. Price flip's are confirmation signals that increases potential for a price trend change. For example, if you are long a stock and there is an upside 13, you will want to take cautious action by selling down or out of a position. If initiating a short sale with the upside 13's, we tend to start with a 1/2 size and add with the downside price flip. The opposite is true for when there are downside 13's. Take a 1/2 size position
and add with the upside price flip. The DeMark Indicators are designed to assist the user with buying into weakness and selling into strength to anticipate trend exhaustion. Selling into a rally and buying into a decline often afford the opportunity to exit a trade without too serious a loss if wrong.
