XLU trade ideas
➡️ Market crash 2021 MAJOR UPDATE: Intermarket analysis.. 📉 Hi mates, i sharing my thoughs about markets from last week and my view for week ahead.Today i bring some more focus on intermarket analysis in this post. So lets start with last week recap:
Summary of last week:
We had busy week for macro, that shows worsening US economy by COVID-19
Dissapointing retail sales for December at Friday: Core Retail Sales m/m: -1.4%, Retail Sales m/m: -0.7%
Dissapointing Uneployment claims: 965K vs. 785K
CPI numbers just in line with expectation
New $1.9 Trillion stimulus proposal by president-elect Joe Biden
Earning season started by Banks NYSE:JPM NYSE:WFC NYSE:C
SPY Chart commentary:
On this chart you can see AMEX:SPY and XLU/SPY
OPENING (IRA): XLU FEBRUARY 19TH 56 SHORT PUT... for a .56/contract credit.
Notes: Selling premium in XLU, which for some reason has popped to the top of my screener, with 30-day is at 44.3%. This one's a modest yielder (2.942%), so, as usual, fine with taking assignment, getting paid to wait, and selling call against if that happens. 1.0% ROC on capital at max; 8.1% annualized.
This time is...⏰ Market exuberance:New secular bear market? 🐻Hi mates, stock market is probably near top and next huge market meltdown is next door . Why i think so?I want to share with you some pieces of my analysis:
📌S&P500 vs. Utilities sector ratio
It seems it could forecast short and mid term corrections in stock market but it looks like its good indicator of broader market cycles as secular bear/bull markets. A secular market trend is a long-term trend that lasts 5 to 25 years and consists of a series of primary trends. A secular bear market consists of smaller bull markets and larger bear markets; a secular bull market consists of larger bull markets and smaller bear markets.
📌Yield spread
Inverted yield curve is leading warning indicator of future recession.
The basic principle is whe yield spred inverted (was in negative territory) you can expect recession in next 12-months.It happened when Dot.com bubble bursted in 2000-2001 and so in Great financial crisis in 2007- 2008 as you see in chart.
📌Put/Call ratio
The put-call ratio is calculated by dividing the number of traded put options by the number of traded call options.
You can use it as contrarian indicator to determine how much Bullish/Bearish the market is.
An extremely low ratio means the market is extremely bullish. A contrarian might conclude that the market is too bullish and is due for a pullback.
Contrary extremely high ratio means the market is extremely bearish.
In my analysis i using 20day MA of Put/Call Ratio an looking up for divergencies.
📌VIX divergence of 20 MA
📌Nasdaq vs Russlel 2000
Just so similar pattern on monhly chart of Nasdaq and Russell 2000
📌Other factors
Margin debt acceleration is another sign of speculative frenzy in the market
Margin debt is not a technical indicator for trading markets. What margin debt represents is the amount of speculation that is occurring in the market. In other words, margin debt is the ‘gasoline,’ which drives markets higher as the leverage provides for the additional purchasing power of assets. However, ‘leverage’ also works in reverse as it supplies the accelerant for more significant declines as lenders ‘force’ the sale of assets to cover credit lines without regard to the borrower’s position.

XLF Utilities The Slow Boat Gets to CHINA........Some times in highly volatile markets and fast flyers we forget the basics. If you interested in a safe steady return in a changing market, XLF will provide a steady return with a work horse dividend of 3 percent.... If we Evaluate a price point of 71 a share off 65 today we recieve a 9 percent return and great dividend into March. This is a great tool to diversify off xle and other high flyer picks while being in a sector thats pretty consistent in a recession and in a bull market.... One should continue to watch RSI to make sure they out beat previous highs.... I might add that although a cigar boat is fun to drive remember the slow boat gets to CHINA TO
