I love green Nasdaq Composite, Nasdaq 100 is already green. S&P 500 is still red a little bit but there are still about two hours before the market close. Watch out tomorrow FOMC meeting. The expectation is interest rate to hike 50 basis point, when they indicate to interest rate hike of 75 basis point, prepare the market might tank again.

This change has been talked about ever since China joined the WTO back in 2001 (and probably some time before then), has something happened that makes it more relevant at this time than previously?
What's special about 21 years? Is that significantly different to 20 or 22 years?

No doubt data driven this year and probably for months to come. Bond yields up in the last week with expectations of higher rates. 2.7% to 3.4%. Could even hit 4% next year but let's see ?

Goldman Joins 75bps Rate Hike Bandwagon, Warns It Will Trigger Recession | ZeroHedge
Tea leaves show indicators oversold in weekly timeframe but to be fair even with the poor inflation figures the index isn't that far away from last months low of 3800 now at 3730 ish. Has the market absorbed the latest set back well it hasn't slumped.? Early days and more data needed that's for sure. Fed and rates up next.

I've mentioned the monthly charts don't always play out but in the summary below looking at the Stochastic it's heading there. Nasdaq and R2K at the oversold levels and SP , DOW and others not too far away. A choppy summer without major falls would bring things into line without too much damage to the levels. A rare event when the monthly is oversold.

Found a link to rates and valuations . In Figure 1 rates have been higher than 5-6% before valuations start to fall below P/E 15. Current forward P/E is around 16 . $230 earnings and 3800 on the SP500. We can only see if earnings hold up. ?

That's the question though isn't it? Fed may be happy to induce recession in order to get inflation under control (lesser long term pain), at which point earnings could drop.

Anyone heard of the concept of "Ice Nine" in relation to the financial market?
Ice Nine is a fictional substance which if you put just one drop into the ocean the entire ocean, and any water connected to it, will freeze.
An Ice Nine of the financial system means that the whole thing would be frozen. All the banks, all the markets.

Yes, you are not the first to correlate a fictional book story with real life financial markets, but as there’s no precedent then I’m not sure what your point is?Type_45 said:Anyone heard of the concept of "Ice Nine" in relation to the financial market?

It’s not like your own portfolio is positioned for such a scenario.
