Sweetgreen (SG) AnalysisCompany Overview: Sweetgreen NYSE:SG is strategically expanding its footprint, with four new restaurant openings in Q2 2024, including a significant location in New Hampshire. This move underscores Sweetgreen's focus on untapped markets, aimed at driving revenue growth and geographic diversification. Key Catalysts: Expansion into New Markets: Opening in new locations, particularly in New Hampshire, demonstrates Sweetgreen’s plan to broaden its market presence, catering to new customer bases, which could meaningfully contribute to its overall growth trajectory.

SINGAPORE COVID-19 Wave 3 Projection Update XIIIn a rather surprising, and significant turn of events, when revisiting the daily counts (which are grossly under reported as many are asked to stay home with primarily ART testing; only PCR positives are logged) there appears to be another kink in the trajectory. Earlier, the model projected a tapering of the numbers. This was also modelled in line with the experience of Malaysia, Indonesia, and even India. Two factors seemed to have not so relevant... the population density in built up areas in Singapore is much higher than any of these countries. Also, the measures imposed are rather different. And these two might be the crux of the kink, dragging along a sub wave, which in my humble opinion is probably a lot steeper, but appears less aggressive on the MACD histogram. Taking these into consideration, the model is projecting a longer run, with a less steeply rising histogrm. This would easily push the tapering off into December, if at all, else into 2022. Stay safe people... do decide to do what you think is necessary. Take very good care of yourself and especially of your family. Do take time to check into an earlier post at the end of June 2021... something was clearly indicated, and showed its face about a month later. Meanwhile, at that time, measures were relaxed and people got optimistic, perhaps a tad too early. Clearly, the model works, and this is yet again telling us something. We are still behind the curve.

SINGAPORE COVID-19 Wave 3 Projection Update IIILast week, an update was made and projected that this Wave 3 was to be more significant and previous, as well as longer in duration. The days passed with events that corroborated with the projection, and in fact, surpassed the projection. The MACD histograms had crossed sooner than expected and the MACD lines show the momentum of the up trend. What this translating into is that this Wave is growing and becoming larger as the days go by. The previous projection was still underestimating the amplitude of the wave; which now looks larger and longer to contend with. By estimating the the momentum, together with virus infection dynamics and including measures imposed, it may be reasonable to expect at least 6-8 weeks before we see the plateau. This would bring us into July 2021. Check in again next week... meanwhile, stay safe, seriously.

SINGAPORE COVID-19 Wave 3 Projection Update IIToday's hot news was that Wave 3 is upon us and appears to be bigger than initially anticipated. So, relooked at the charts... charts that had predicted the Wave 2 spike in COVID-19 cases in SG in November 2020, which appeared in January 2021. (See attached links to related ideas below) And again on 5th March 2021, which gave heads up on a clear and present spike in weeks to come. Basically, I have a custom Fibonacci-ed MACD that I use for technical analyses, and I applied it to the COVID confirmed cases. These numbers only increase, so I was analyzing the moving average trends, and realized that the convergence divergence model could be used to give heads up on increasing numbers. So far, 2 out of 2 waves projected about 6-8 weeks in advance. That's a 100% hit rate that would have given critical time for action. Looking at the daily chart on the left panel, where the rising MACD histograms project a spike. And once the histograms cross over above zero, within weeks we will see the spike in the reported numbers. What appears worse is when the MACD crosses over. As seen from early April 2021. Now, using the same model, I apply to the weekly chart of SG COVID-19 cases, and it shows that this Wave 3 spike was underestimated previously. I might have underestimated this Wave 3 . The MACD histogram is about to cross over zero, and the MACD itself is also crossing up. Ominous projection? Yes, and I would give this some serious thought as a heads up mechanism to start t hinking ahead of the (virus) curve instead. Because, the current wave might just spiral out over the next couple of months. *remember, any wave starts, needs at least a month to settle down due to the epidemiologic curves.

Singapore COVID-19 Wave 3 UpdateSo... Technical analysis is not the orthodox tool for Pandemic infection monitoring, BUT it appears that IF we can look beyond the box, we can see more, and get ahead of the curve a little more. This is the SECOND time the Singapore COVID-19 charts are giving us about 6-8 weeks heads up of an imminent spike in COVID-19 cases. Much could have been done IF we looked closer and took appropriate actions. Last post on this matter, on 5th March, it was clear and present danger that a 3rd wave spike was to happen in April... and now, we are in the onset of a spike in cases in Singapore. It should be about another 8 weeks before things we under control... This is NOT chance, but high probability (though unusual) projection of the dynamics. You see, the RPM in the middle panel shows that it is not as powerful a run up this time (as previously expected); and the MACD histograms correctly warned of this imminent spike, now indicating that it is probably nearing a peak out. This predictive model also works for other countries. So it is robust. Till next time, stay safe and stay healthy! PS... see related ideas below for the historical tracking
