The Search For Liquidity in ERA of TighteningYoung corporate executives in Mumbai, who may never have read Marx, were recently circulating by e-mail portions from Karl Marx's 150-year-old writings which lucidly talk about a stage in capitalism where banks would throw ever larger doses of cheap debt for consumption until there is a crises of repayment and the state would step in to take over the banks. Indeed, Marx had even said the original proponents of free trade will be forced to turn protectionist at some stage of globalisation!
So it was only appropriate that the G-20 leaders should have met so close to Marx's grave. In fact, there are many other warning signals the G-20 leaders can take from the writings of Marx, undoubtedly one of the greatest thinkers of the 19th century.
Seen in Marxian terms, the G-20 leaders represent the global bourgeoisie which wants to find new ways of revolutionising the instruments of production to take global capitalism to a higher level from what seems like a deep stagnation in large parts of the world today. In this context, Marx had specifically spoken about periods of commercial crises in advanced capitalist societies which are visited by an epidemic of overproduction
The epidemic of overproduction creates total disorder in bourgeois society, threatening existing property and productive forces at large.
Metair skyrocketing to R30.00 with a warningFalling Wedge which looks more like a rectangle flag formed on Metair.
We then saw a Major breakout today.
The next target is generally to the top of the formation.
However, we have mixed signals and a warning.
200>21>7 - Bearish
RSI>50 - Bullish
Target R30.00
WARNING
We need the price to break above the 200MA to indicate it's in a confirmed uptrend. We need to wait for this to happen before the bullishness shows more on the charts.
ABOUT
the group manages an international portfolio of companies that manufacture, distribute and retail products for energy storage and automotive components. Metair was formed in 1948, becoming a supplier of automotive components to a single OEM in South Africa in 1964.
Shoprite showing something unusual - Target R189.75W Formation has formed on Shoprite.
The strangest thing is that the 200MA is actually the Neckline of the pattern.
so if the price breaks below the 200MA, all Heck is going to break loose.
There are other bearish signs like
21>7>200 RSI<50
Bearish bias
My first target is R189.75.
CONCERNS:
We haven't had a break of structure yet. This means, the position will remain neutral until it does.
Academy Sports (ASO) I bought some of this near the IPO back around $15 a share. I cashed out around $28 a share. I wished I had held, it is now near $63 a share.
Small cap sports retailer out of Katy, TX with superb financials and growth plans. 0.47 PEG, ROE of 41.71%. Solidly increasing free cash flow and margins. Solid and steady accumulation.
$67.13 is 1.618 extension on monthly. $67.83 on weekly
2.142 extended on daily right now, so I am hoping for a pullback to the $57.74 on daily 23% extension, which is in the range of the thin vol profile on weekly down to volume expansion at $58.41
$51.66 mo. & weekly 23% fib retrace; thin vol profile on weekly down to $58.01
$51.51 prior swing high on weekly
$58.41 23% fib on daily; thin volume profile from $61.89 down to $58.41 fib
I don't chase, I always wait for a pullback to buy, so I am setting an entry target of $58.56 in hopes of a pullback to higher volume profile off that 2.142 extension.

#XRT - Retailers ETF consolidating for a breakout?Keep an eye on Retailers in the US. Fundamentally it doesn't feel right but technically its telling a different story. Nice consolidation off the 200 weekly ma since may Last year. Level is clear here. A convincing weekly break above $66.50 should see this move higher to at least a target of $77.50
SPY Cycle Patterns For Dec 12, 2022 - More sideways melt-up.Here are the SPY Cycle Patterns for this week.
Expect more sideways melt-up trending as we head into the Fed rate decision and key economic data.
Traders will start to shift into early 2023 expectations this week (after the Fed). Check out my other posts.
The markets are not expecting anything extraordinary right now - more of the same.
The Fed rate decision will likely come in between 50pb and 75pb (as expected).
All of this has been BAKED INTO the markets already.
I can tell you what I'm seeing out here in So. Cal... Shoppers EVERYWHERE. Traffic is a mess. Lots of our of state cars everywhere. Malls and shopping centers seem packed.
From what I can see, Q4:2022 will probably stay very solid for retail and online shopping. Unless there is some catalyst to BREAK the markets, US stocks should slide into 2023 with fairly strong expectations.
Follow my research.

Stochastic indicator in weekly already Oversold, so there is a chance price will have a short Rebound to the Neckline Area.
Disclaimer ON.
Buy Australian Dollar? HmmmUSD is having upside from the shaky risk perceptive that is the result of CCP protests in China. AUDUSD has traded into support following the dissapointing AU retail sales data.
Despite this I'm bullish the pair, as generally the market sentiment feels USD bearish & I'm looking for this trend to resume.
Find out if the AUDUSD will appreciate alongside me.
