The Swiss team’s latest report below. Conditions are becoming over bought across many sectors. The internals of 52wk highs not confirming the breakout. Sentiment close to contrarian levels.

The Swiss team have done themselves proud once again. Words fail me. A superb analysis. Lets see if they can win the European technical team for 2013 as they did in 2012. To the report specifically. There is much to digest here. What I continue to admire about their approach is that it’s probability driven....

Another great and final macro technical report for 2012 from the Swiss team. I’m in the process of my annual migration to the mountains so i’ll simply post up the report for now.

WF Securities 2013 Fundamental Economic Forecast – “The New Normal”

by on
Wells provide us the first 2013 fundamental projection report. Many more will follow of course and I’ll try and post up as many of these as I can to see what themes emerge. The Wells report is a US centric report, to my mind. I pick this single chart out from the report. This is...

Weekly Technical Comments – “S&P500 Capped Near Term 1430 to 1440, Shanghai Based & Watch Silver”

Another great macro technical report from the Swiss team. There is a lot of detail in the report from regional index comment to sector comment to commodity comments.

Weekly Technical Comments – “Oversold But (SP500) 1320 Possible to the Downside”

by on
Another solid report from the swiss team. They acknowledge the correction has “expanded” but they stick to their bullish call that this is a correction and rotation rather than the ending of the 2009 bull market. On the plus side the seasonals are good from here and many sectors remain constructive including many European markets....

Weekly Market Roundup – “US Equities Vulnerable Short Term But Weakness An Opportunity To Average In”

by on
SC sticking to their defensive yielding blue chip equities theme. Buy the dips is their view with 1370 and 1345 buying zones in their opinion. Fund flows to fixed income and money market funds as well as the level of bearishness in the market leads me to mirror their view at present. I’m out of...

Weekly Bullion Technical Comments – “Short Term Bearish, Medium Term Bearish”

by on
I’d like them to explain themselves a little more than they have done in the past but we have to hand it to the German team they have “nailed” the bullion weakness in recent months. Only the false break to the upside made the question their call and this questioning lasted only a week or...
