Let's Go Briden (Brandon or Biden?) 🤠✌️Biden to the rescue : Biden could soon lift tariffs on China in bid to tackle inflation ''The Biden administration is wrapping up a mandatory review of tariffs on Chinese imports that were first imposed by former President Donald Trump, who argued that China needed to be penalized due to unfair trade practices.'' Good move that could help reverse the situation. No 'FOMO' though, we stick to our chart regardless of the situation: Support at 10530, allows us to be 'Buyers'. Under that level= more chaos For now: Optimism may return. Key points to watch out for: - Earning Reports coming up - Employment data If these 2 are good we could be up for a major recovery here. Economic data will dictate what happens next. If economy is healthy Rate Hikes might be priced in already (Feds said 3,5% will be, which really is not much) One Love, the FXPROFESSOR ps. good move there Brandon! ps2: Nasdaq up = Btc upper

SSE Shanghai Composite W1 topped w/ a diamond? W2 comingThis China index confirmed its completion of ABC when lockdown ended & their economy resumes. It has risen so much from the ABC correction low of 2888 & we may see wave 1 topping out with a diamond reversal pattern. As seen in the past 2 times shown in chart, a diamond can be either a reversal or continuation pattern so proceed with caution. Reasons why I see this as a reversal: 1) index has already risen 500 points (2888 to 3388 completes the 5 sub-waves of wave 1) without any major retracement. 2) price was rejected exactly at wma 50 & an anchored VWAP from 3300 bottom of July 2021 3) price was rejected at the 2015 red trendline 4) price has reached the 1.272 FIB retracement of the most recent leg down (an ideal spot for abc zigzag retracements) The 2 most probable supports (the 2 yellow zones) for the wave 2 correction are: 1) the 0.383 FIB near the 3100 to 3200 pivot zone 2) the 0.618 zone near 3100 If wave 2 is shallow, then the future wave 4 may be a deeper correction like 61.8% or 78.6%.

US500/SPX enters into a bear market The last time this happened was in 2018 but the market some how management to rally which resulted in a false breakout. In 2020 the market came back to this level and spiked around this area before turning into an almost 2 year rally. 2007 was a different story as market broke structure and the result was a sell of that lasted one year. What will happen in 2022? Will the bulls take control and result in the SPX hitting another all time high. Or will we see similar events of what happened in 2007 which resulted in a huge sell off that one year.

Will HSI finish strong for Q2?2 weeks ago we discussed why the HSI:HSI rebound rally would be slowed by profit takers (). The choppiness in the index we saw for the past 2 weeks was also due to the discrepancy between the China and US equity market. While the SSE Composite SSE:000001 still held above 3300 level, the US equity indexes all broke through the 2022-May low due to the increasing worries of inflation and recession risk. Hong Kong as a market sitting in between the east and the west taking different messages from each side, fluctuation is inevitable in such a situation. Strong rebound in the US equity market last Friday In the recent Friday session (Jun-24), the US equity markets showed a strong rebound and paired back most of the losses from the past 2 weeks and stood above the May-2022 low again. That means the breakout to the downside we saw last week is likely to be a false breakout. While the main direction of the US equity market is still downward, it could take a break at this price level (to accumulate more energy before diving further). This break also means alignment between the US and China markets, which create the necessary condition for Hong Kong HSI to continue the rally to the upside. Xi Jinping is joining the HKSAR 25th anniversary event Next Friday, July-1 is the 25th Anniversary of the establishment of the HKSAR (also known as reunification with China). Last week Xi Jinping has confirmed that he will physically attend the anniversary event , which marks the first time for Xi to step out of mainland China since Covid outbreak in 2020. This gesture re-emphasizes the importance of Hong Kong to China. Reopen to revive Hong Kong Economy Back in early June the Liaison Office of Central People’s Government (LOCPG, Beijing’s main body overseeing Hong Kong) had hosted a meeting with foreign business chambers to collect “suggestion” and “advice” on how to revive the Hong Kong business environment. All chambers had expressed that the existing quarantine measure is the biggest roadblock for local business. With the new chief executive of Hong Kong, John Lee coming onboard next month, all eyes will be on him to iron out the reopening details of Hong Kong with mainland China and the rest of the world. Personally I am optimistic about the relaxation of quarantine measures as soon as the coming Q3. Reopening of Hong Kong is actually a one-stone-two-birds move for China. First, it can serve as a welcoming gift for John Lee from China, to help him rebuild trust between the government and the people in the city. Second, reviving Hong Kong economy, especially its financial market, is one of the crucial steps for China to save its downturning economy. I believe the announcement of the reopening would be one of the major events in Q3 that send the Hong Kong HSI Index to the upside. Technical Discussion HSI index retested the 20 days and 50 days moving average without going through, reconfirming the support at these levels. The strength also pulled the 20 days moving average above the 50 days creating a bullish technical signal. If we follow the upside rally narrative, below are the levels the index must break through to confirm the sustainability of the trend: 22142: 09-Jun, choppy zone peak 22523: 04-Apr, rebound peak from market plummet in Mar-2022 However, one needs to be extra cautious if the index drops below the low of the choppy zone at 20697 again , as this would mean the rally narrative discussed above is still premature. Long positions in the index as well as other Hong Kong listed stocks should be trimmed partially for risk management.

Chine ETF GXC about to break out...For some time, GXC had been flagged as potential for upside... massive upside. Within a triangle, it had already gained over 10% since it was flagged. This week, it appears to be breaking out... out of the triangle that it has been coiling in. Obvious that the weekly and daily chart technical indicators are bullish, or crossing over bullishly. Candlesticks are pointing that too. All systems go here. Target 20% upside... 112 in early to mid-August 2022.

Alibaba set to break long down trendFor various reasons, the Chinese tech giant Alibaba has been in a downtrend since October 2020. The company has had many headwinds, most of them related to the regulatory environment in China. Most of those issues now seem to be resolving, and I think BABA will be one of the better performers in the coming year. The China Credit Impulse A major leading indicator for China stocks is Bloomberg's "China Credit Impulse" index. As the following chart from MacroMicro shows, the credit impulse's last peak more or less coincided with the last peak in Alibaba in October 2020: As you can also see from the chart, the credit impulse now seems to have bottomed and is improving, a bullish sign for China stocks and for Alibaba in particular. Whereas the US and most other developed nations have been raising interest rates, China is actually in a rate-cutting cycle. Key policy rates in China have only been cut by about 15 basis points, so I don't want to make it sound like they're cutting rates drastically, but they're certainly not raising them, and there's no sign yet that they intend to do so. That makes China potentially a safe haven from rising rates in the US and other developed markets. countryeconomy.com US Delisting Risk For the last couple years, the US has been making noise about delisting China ADRs (the depository shares that China companies use to trade on US exchanges. The SEC has been demanding that Chinese companies comply with US accounting regulations, and the Chinese government has been making it impossible for these companies to do so. At the same time, China enacted a crackdown on big tech companies. The crackdown included steep penalties imposed on Alibaba, including a $2.8 billion fine for monopolistic behavior. The Chinese government also disappeared Alibaba's founder, Jack Ma, for three months. This is "the big one" for Alibaba, but the problem recently seems to be headed toward a resolution. Jack Ma eventually reappeared in Hong Kong and has dutifully been doing as he's told, including restructuring Ant Group and selling off media companies to address the Chinese government's monopoly concerns. Last week, the Chinese government signaled through state media that the tech crackdown should be over soon, and that the Chinese regulatory commission will support companies in complying with US accounting requirements so that ADRs can remain listed in the US: www.cnbc.com While this isn't yet a done deal, it looks really promising and could lead to a large rally in China stocks if and when it gets across the finish line. Zero Tolerance Covid Policy China has had a policy of zero tolerance for Covid, which means the whole country goes into lockdown every time a Covid outbreak happens. This one is not as big a deal for Alibaba, because it's an ecommerce company and thus potentially a beneficiary from people staying home. But I suspect that if China ended this zero tolerance policy, the entire China stock market would rally, including Alibaba. There have, indeed, been rumors that China may end the policy, as reported by the LA Times: www.latimes.com China has a pretty high vaccination rate overall, but they've used the somewhat less effective Sinovac vaccine, and the elderly population surprisingly has been less willing to get vaccinated than younger people, so death rates in the current outbreak have been pretty high. This may make it difficult to end the zero tolerance policy, but they have to end it sometime, so we'll see. Alibaba Valuation and Buybacks Alibaba's got something like an 8% free cash flow yield, which makes it a pretty incredible value for a big tech stock. EV/EBITDA is about 10x, which is mid-range for China's consumer discretionary sector and way below US tech firms of comparable size. The valuation makes BABA hard to resist. They could flush half their capital down the toilet and still be a better value than a lot of US tech. And the signs are that they plan to deploy their capital well rather than poorly. Yesterday Alibaba announced that it will increase its buyback program from $15 billion to $25 billion, which means it will opportunistically take advantage of low share prices to efficiently return capital to shareholders. That's called good capital allocation, and it's one of the things I look for in an investment. It's a really good sign for Alibaba here. Technicals As you can see from the chart, Alibaba has been in a long downtrend. It looks ready to attempt a breakout from that downtrend, however. I'm adding on any pullback to the 112-116 range and looking for a test of that downtrend line probably within a couple weeks.

Event-Driven Strategy on Binary OutcomesCBOT:ZS1! Last week, I laid the groundwork for a new idea on event-driven strategy. Event-Driven Strategy Focusing on Global Crisis. Three-factor Commodities Futures Pricing Model and Game Theory Matrix were introduced, illustrated with my own experience trading COMEX Gold Futures (GC) during the US-China trade conflict in 2019. My idea was featured on Editors’ Picks, generating over 16,000 views and nearly 800 likes. Today, I would expand my idea to traders who want to construct their own event-driven strategy, in a 3-step approach. Firstly, to qualify as a crisis, it needs to have the magnitude to shock the global market. Below is a few examples of global crises in the past five years: • US-China Trade Conflict (2018): The two countries account for 42% of global GDP and have a combined population of 1.7 billion people, 22% of the world total. New tariffs imposed on thousands of goods with multi-year cumulative amount reaching $2 trillion. • African Swine Fever (2018): It reportedly wiped out 60% of the pigs in China. Supply shortage from the No. 1 pork producer sent pork price up 300% in China. Global markets from the U.S. to Europe also felt the pain, as meat prices went up across the board, affecting pork, beef, lamb, and poultry. • Brexit (2019): The withdrawal of Great Britain from the European Union resulted in a loss of 20% of GDP and 13% of population in the world’s third largest economic block. The impact on Britain itself is less than certain, as it would trade less with EU members, and more with countries outside of Europe. • COVID (2019): The Coronavirus outbreak has turned into a global pandemic, and dramatically changed the world and our lives as we know it. • Trump defeated in the U.S. presidential election (2020): It put a stop to the “America First” policies. In just four years, U.S. political landscape has once again swung widely. • Russia-Ukraine Conflict (2022): First major military conflict in Europe since WW2. In addition to the hundreds of thousands of casualty and millions of refugees, the ongoing conflict disrupted the global supply of energy and agricultural products, sending US inflation to a 40-year high. • Lockdowns in China (2022): Dozens of Chinese cities have been under some form of lockdowns in recent months, affecting a quarter of its population. It also created huge bottleneck in global supply chain, sending rippling effects around the world. Secondly, analyze the impact of a crisis and attempt to define it in binary outcomes. These outcomes must be mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive (MECE). If you are unclear of the outcomes, or there are too many of them, it would be difficult to construct a trading strategy around the crisis. Riding on the above examples of crises events, we will have their binary outcomes as follows: • US-China Trade Conflict: Fight or Talk (alternatively, Tariff or No Tariff) • African Swine Fever: Contained or Spread Out (Not Contained) • Brexit: Approved or Not Approved • US Election: Democrats Win or Republicans Win • Ukraine situation: Putin Wins or Putin Loses (Peace deal is considered a Loss for Russia) • China’s Zero-Covid Policy: Shanghai Lockdown or End of Lockdown Thirdly, search and identify financial instruments that are most affected by the crisis. How do you know which is the right one amid a wide range of financial instruments? A quick test is to observe whether its price change correlates to the binary outcomes of the crisis. In a classical supply and demand diagram, fundamental drivers move price up or down along the supply and demand lines in a continuous fashion. A crisis event shifts the lines to the left or to the right, pushing sudden price bumps as the event hits the news headlines. Deep dive into the trade conflicts between China and the U.S., we can deploy the event-driven strategy on a commodity directly impacted by tariff. Interestingly, it was not a Chinese commodity tallied by Mr. Trump, but a U.S. commodity being taxed by China – Soybeans produced by U.S. farmers. On April 2nd, 2018, the Trump administration announced that it would impose 25% tariffs on about 1,300 industrial, technology, transportation, and medical products made in China. In less than a day, China responded by imposing a 25% tariff on 106 goods in 14 categories, including soybeans, automobiles, and chemicals originating in the U.S. Following China’s announcement, CBOT Soybeans Futures (ZS) dropped 2.2% and touched a low of $9.83/bushel. In my view, the initial price down was an understatement. I believed that CBOT Soybeans could go a lot lower with the tariff making the U.S. grains less competitive than those from South America. Over the next week, I put in Short ZS Futures positions, mainly on back-month contracts. Here are the logics behind my trades. As the world’s largest consumer and importer of Soybeans, China imports 85% of its soybeans for domestic consumption to meet the huge appetite in cooking (soybean oil) and animal feeds (soybean meal). United States is the largest producer and exporter of Soybeans, with 68% of its export going to China. Tariff takes time to impact the market fully. At first, Chinese importers expedited purchase of US soybeans ahead of the tariff deadline. They also increased buying from Brazil and Argentina. Eventually, when the cheap grains were exhausted and inventory was depleted, they would be forced to buy from American farmers again. The higher price with tariff would encourage use of alternative ingredients and reduce the overall Chinese demand on soybeans. This prediction has been proven to be on the right track, as CBOT Soybean Futures continued to decline in the next three months until it hit $8.00/bushel, down 20% from levels before the tariff. Let’s rework the Soybean trade using our 3-step approach. Firstly, Does it have the magnitude to shock the global market? Yes. 40 million metric tons of soybeans, or $15 billion a year, would be taxed by China. It had huge negative impact on U.S. farm incomes. Secondly, could we define the Soybean tariff as an event with binary outcomes? Yes, it is either “Tariff On” or “Tariff Off”. If the tension escalated, tariff would stick and become a permanent part of soybean cost. On the other hand, if US and China started a trade talk, soybean tariff could be removed later. While the tariff impact on nearby futures is fixed, it is not so on back-month futures prices. Thirdly, is Soybean Futures the right instrument to use? Let’s apply our three-factor commodities pricing model on soybean, as follows: Soybean Futures Price = Soybean Cash Price + Market Sentiment + Probability of Tariff In a “Tariff On” scenario, the probability of tariff increases to 100%. While production cost in the U.S. is not affected, Chinese exporters must pay 25% more to buy. The reduced demand for U.S. soybean has the net impact of pushing futures price down. Therefore, the sign of Tariff Premium should be negative in the case of soybean futures. In a “Tariff Off” scenario, trade talk could reduce the probability from 100% to 25%, for example. A signal of Chinese demand recovery has the net impact of raising futures price up. Typically, about 1/3 of US soybean, or 40 out of 120 million metric tons of the grain, is exported to China every year. This sheer size made tariff a dominant factor driving soybean price, outweighing fundamental factors such as planted acreage, weather, and yield. This concludes the use of US-China Trade Conflict as a case study for applying the event-driven strategy. My next writings would explore new strategies on more recent event shocks such as the lockdowns in China and the Ukraine situation. Meanwhile, please tell me what you think, either on TV or by email. Happy Trading.

HSI rebound rally will be slowed by profit takerWhile my view toward HSI remains bullish since the end of May after the index has decisively surged through its major resistance of the 50 days moving average, one need be aware that the index has entered a choppy zone due to the emerging selling pressure from profit taking of short term traders. That said, one should avoid breakout buying as higher price might trigger more profit taking orders causing slow down in upside price movement. No matter how affirmative one is, it is always important to keep your head up for potential developments that are aligned with, or against your point of view. Overconfidence will turn intuition into “into-wishing” . Below are some of the actions I would closely follow in the coming weeks to detect market sentiment change: 1. Market reaction after the US CPI and FOMC rate decision Last Friday the worse than expected US CPI figures pushed down the US equity market. Asian equity index futures (such as HSI, A50, NK225) in the night after-hours trading session also reflected the plummet. However, no matter how risk-off it was on Friday, it is worth noting that all of the 3 major US equity indexes ( SP:SPX , DJ:DJI , NASDAQ:NDX ) actually didn’t even reach the May-20 low. That means the CPI surprise indeed was not so surprising that it provided no new information to the market. What we need to observe is how the market moves when it reopens on Monday. However, major movement might only come after Thursday’s FOMC rate decision. 2. Chinese investors risk appetite Compared to HSI, Shanghai Stock Exchange Composite Index (SSE Composite Index, SSE:000001 ) better reflects Chinese investors sentiment. SSE Composite Index has creeped back up to the 2022-Apr rebound peak level around 3290. At this major resistance level, the market will require positive news or policy release to sustain the bullish sentiment in order to surge through, otherwise the natural profit taking force will drive the market into consolidation or even reversal. With the increasing correlation between Hong Kong and the Chinese stock market, any change in Chinese participants' sentiment can move HSI greatly. 3. Non-Chinese fund FOMO buying of Chinese tech If follow the Southbound fund flow from China to Hong Kong closely, 4 weeks ago Chinese investors actually have started to rebuild their position in major tech firms such as Meituan HKEX:3690 and Kuaishou HKEX:1024 (Note: Alibaba HKEX:9988 is not available for direct purchase by Chinese investors due to secondary listing and weighted voting right issue). Only until the recent 2 weeks after the earnings release of Alibaba and Meituan, non-Chinese investors finally woke up from the Chinese bearish dream and started FOMO buying. An interesting observation is that since last Thursday when HSI briefly touched 22100 level, Chinese investors have turned from net buying into net selling of Chinese tech firms. That means for the past 2 days, Chinese investors were effectively selling the stocks to the non-Chinese. Once the non-Chinese find out they are the only one buying, there might be some retracement until the price at which Chinese players are comfortable to start loading up their position again. 4. Risk of China new round of lockdown Only 10 days after the end of Shanghai lockdown, Shanghai is restarting mandatory mass testing across districts over the weekend. Whether this event is a false alarm, or will evolve into a new wave of city lockdown is a major uncertainty. While most of the upside is already priced in from the current rally, one should actually prepare the sharp reversal to the downside when risk of lockdown emerges.

BABA is going for a solitary run.I am not a fanatic of BABA and to be honest, I was waiting for it for around 60$, but this last next week BABA has shown strength in one of the worst times ever for the markets when usually this stock down performs always NDX. This last week BABA broke the channel that it has been into since historical maximums. Not only that, but the price was minting and has broken decisively above, backtesting the level and losing just 0.3 percent as the NDX plummeted 3% when it would have ordinarily fallen 9 or 10%. It has not only broken the channel but is also above an important level with a volume below it, indicating that we might consider purchasing (for a stretch, not in the long term). It's too early to predict what will happen to BABA, but since China is pouring money into its market as if it were free, it's likely that BABA draws something like shown in the chart. A stock that has gone poorly in the last year is showing now a lot of divergences. If the scenery is correct (let's see that the price does this next week in order to validate it) It may be a 50% change from the present price, which is significant.

RBA and China Are Bullish For Aussie- Elliott wavesAussie is trying to wake up as RBA started hiking rates while China is going out of lockdowns in June, so seems like wave C is already in place, unless this is still a higher degree leg A from the 0.7661 highs. Well, at this stage it's too early to confirm any new long-term bottom, but at least in the short-term we should be aware of more upside after recently broken trendline resistance in the first leg, so more upside can be coming after pullback. Support is at 0.7/0.7030 which can be also a base of a right shoulder on 4h chart. Also, HSI has made a nice turn up recently which can be positive for the Aussie.
