The number of SPX stocks above 200-day SMA is decliningThe 200-day SMA (Simple Moving Average) is a widely followed technical indicator used by traders and investors to assess the overall trend of an asset. When stocks rise above their 200-day SMA, it is generally seen as a positive sign and considered a bullish development. The logic behind this idea is that if the stock's price has been consistently higher than its long-term average, it indicates strength and potential for further upward movement. Conversely, if stocks drop below this level, it is viewed as a bearish signal, implying weakness and the possibility of more downside. Monitoring the percentage of stocks above the 200-day SMA can provide valuable insights into the overall health and direction of the market. Therefore, today, we will examine the percentage of stocks in the S&P 500 Index that are currently trading above their 200-day SMA. Since SPX’s lows in October 2022, there have been three significant peaks in the index, particularly on 13th December 2022, 2nd February 2023, and 1st May 2023. From October 2022 lows until the peak in December 2022, the percentage of SPX stocks was rising (as a matter of fact, this metric started to grow even sooner than the index, in late September 2022). However, after constituting a high in December 2022, SPX started to decline, and so did the percentage of SPX stocks above the 200-day SMA. This decline did not last long, and SPX began to rise again toward the end of 2022 and early 2023. The growth was sustained until 2nd February 2023, and after that, SPX started falling until a low on 13th March 2023. Then, the index began to rise again until 1st May 2023. The SPX was accompanied by a rising percentage of SPX stocks above the 200-day SMA on the first two legs up. But on the third leg up, SPX was accompanied by the growing metric only until early April 2023. Then, in mid-April 2023, the metric started deviating from the increasing (or sideways-moving) price of SPX. This catches our attention as it can potentially imply exhaustion for the rally, showing more and more stocks turning bearish while the index continues to hold up.

Quick overview of banking results: JPM, Citigroup, WFCThe last week brought earnings from three major U.S. banks, including Citigroup, JP Morgan Chase & Co., and Wells Fargo. Overall, the results for the first quarter of 2023 were mixed, with indicators pointing to positive and negative trends. All three banks showed solid growth in revenue and non-interest income. However, declining deposits and loans paint a worrisome picture for the industry (together with rising provisions for credit losses). As a result, we believe the theme of banking earnings will be “big capitalized banks that can make money even in the current environment versus small, less resilient banks facing obstacles ahead.” Citigroup Citigroup Inc. reported a net income of $4.6 billion (up 7% YoY but down 19% YoY when excluding divesture-related impacts) for the first quarter of 2023, compared to $4.3 billion for the same period in 2022. The bank’s revenues grew 12% YoY (or 6% YoY excluding divestiture-related impacts) and 19% QoQ. Operating expenses rose by 1% YoY and 2% QoQ. Citigroup's end-of-period loans were $652 billion at quarter end, down 1% YoY. Deposits remained unchanged versus the prior year, standing at $1.3 trillion. JP Morgan Chase & Co. For the first quarter of 2023, JPMorgan Chase & Co reported $12.6 billion in net income (up 52% YoY and 15% QoQ) and record managed revenue of $39.3 billion (up 25% YoY and 11% QoQ). Its noninterest expenses rose to $20.1 billion (by 5% YoY and 6% QoQ). The Consumer & Community Banking division had an ROE of 40%, with average deposits down 4% YoY and client investment assets down 1% YoY. The Commercial Banking division saw its average loans grow 13% YoY and 1% QoQ. However, it experienced a decline in average deposits of 16% YoY and 5% QoQ. Meanwhile, the Asset Wealth Management division saw average loans drop by 1% YoY and 1% QoQ, with average deposits declining as much as 22% YoY. The bank’s total deposits dropped by 7% YoY and average deposits by 14% YoY and 3% QoQ. Wells Fargo Wells Fargo reported $4.9 billion (up 32% YoY and 52% QoQ) in net income and $20.7 billion in total revenue (up 17% YoY and 3% QoQ) for the first quarter 2023. Net interest income rose by 45% YoY, while noninterest income dropped 13% YoY. Period-end deposits decreased by 8% YoY and 2% QoQ. Furthermore, period-end assets fell by 3% YoY.

US500 - Wait for more Monday CloseON US500 I would not trade in the next few days, more information and more movement is needed because from this area it can both go up and down. In practice, I closed the day above the support but it is below the trend line (the blue one), if on Monday it does not close above the trend line and possibly confirms on Tuesday above the trend line, then in that case I would go long but in the given situation, we have to take into account that on Monday it could close below the trend area and thus it could go to the next support area down. Including the RSI shows us that it is overbought, which would be related to the resistance trend line in the downward trend.

The FED continues to imply a recessionYesterday, the FED hiked interest rates by 25 basis points, causing an initial rally in the U.S. stock market, followed by a selloff after FOMC’s press release. In his speech, Jerome Powell acknowledged the persistence of high inflation (replacing the tone of “easing inflation”), banking sector problems, and a strong labor market. Furthermore, he reiterated FED’s commitment to bringing the inflation rate back to 2%, adding that “some additional policy firming” may be required to achieve this goal (translating to the possibility of more rate hikes). As for projection materials, the median forecast for the unemployment rate in 2023 is 4.5% (and 4.6% in 2024). We discussed a few months ago that historically, each 1% increase in the unemployment rate was always accompanied by a recession. Therefore, considering that the unemployment rate was 3.4% in January 2023, we could argue that the FED implies a recession over the course of the current year (even though it has been implying it at least since September 2022 through its forecasts). In addition to that, the FED’s documents show a median forecast for FED’s fund rate at 5.1% in 2023, which is higher than the current target range of 4.75% to 5% (telling us that interest rates should be higher at some point). In our opinion, this means only more stress for the already weak U.S. economy. Due to that, we will stick to our previous assessment of more downside for the stock market in the coming months. Accordingly, we maintain our price target for SPX at $3 400. Illustration 1.01 Illustration 1.01 displays the 5-minute chart of ES1! continuous futures. Yellow arrows indicate particular events in the market. Vicious whipsaws in the price can be observed. Technical analysis Daily time frame = Bearish (Weak trend) Weekly time frame = Neutral Illustration 1.02 Illustration 1.02 shows the daily chart of SPX and the bullish breakout, followed by invalidation after Jerome Powell’s speech. We will pay close attention to today’s price action in SPX. To confirm a bearish bias, we would like to see the price stay below the sloping resistance (ideally, manifesting more weakness).

US500 - Short - RR3Smart Money Concepts During the london killzine (2.00-5.00 ny time) a draw on buyside liquidity took place. The draw on liquidity took out the previous high and formed a bearish market structure shift. As a result of taking out the previous high and forming a market structure shift, a bearish breaker block has formed. Due to the strong bearish momentum, a bearish fvg has formed. There's a difference between an imbalance and an fvg. We only take an entry on an fvg combined with a breaker. An fvg is a 3 candle formation that has formed immediatly after a draw on liquidity. The overlap between the breaker and the fvg is our point of interest to take an entry. In addition, a bearish orderblock has also been formed, which will serve as a last line of defence for our stop loss placement. As an extra confluence to the above strategy, at least one of the conditions below must be present as well (not all of them are required, one is sufficient enough). 1. MACD signal must be bearish for a short, or bullish for a long 2. MACD bullish divergence for a long, or macd bearish divergence for a short 3. Hull Suite green colored and price above the ribbon for a long, or Hull Suite red colored and price below the ribbon for a short. 4. RSI over bought for a short, or rsi oversold for a long 5. RSI bullish divergence for a long, or RSI bearish divergence for a short 6. Fibonacci golden pocket
