Resilience is a signal (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Macro PictureYields on US Treasuries have reached the highest levels since 2009 and yet equities have shown immense resilience and moved up, despite the panic in bonds. Maybe Equity traders just dont get it, maybe its a sign to pay attention. Underneath the surface of the indices we have seen quite a big correction with breadth levels below the market bottoms from the Iran war and the Tariff Tantrum last year. I think there is a reason to be optimistic about equities in the near term as energy r

Macro overhangThe FED hiked as expected and Warsh was just as hawkish, if not more hawkish as expected.

In short: XLP, XLV, XLE and XME bid with Momentum and Growth getting a haircut over the coming months. Oh and by the way, all of retail is long Semis and AI
