US Risk SP500 and Technology have both over shot and reached record overbought territory on their weekly and daily time frames.

I hope all are enjoying their summer breaks here. Certainly listed securities of all shapes and sizes are moving here and we see major new trends taking hold and old trends gradually breaking down.

All assets markets have a positive tail wind here with dovish comments from the several of the major central banks and what appears to be the last gasps of a renewal of the “bad news is good” theme of the last decade. Lead indicators like...

We are still in the Summer recess here across world markets but its noteworthy to record the observation that divergence between world equity markets and US equity markets is at an all time extreme standard deviation.

Risk is bouncing strongly here and particularly so US tech and the mid cap Russel2000. The larger caps (tech aside) are under performing and world indexes are still under performing US indexes over the recent period of weakness. The selectivity is increasing here which is usually a clear indication of weakness inside a rally with...
