What’s next for Gold & S&P 500?Having covered Gold & the Equity Index last week, this week we will look at how we could leverage both to trade on the move we’re watching! Quite a happening market we first covered Gold two weeks ago. Firstly, the interest rates market had a sizeable correction, with the 10Y-2Y yield now trading at close to -0.45% instead of the -1% range just 3 weeks ago. Secondly, with FOMC out of the way, we have some clarity on what the Fed thinks of the current bank contagion episode as well as how markets reacted to the Fed’s statement. With all these in mind, one thing we want to point out is the relationship between yield curve inversions across the different tenures of the curve. Comparing the past 2 episodes of yield curve inversion on the shorter and longer end of the curve, we note a few things here. Firstly, the 10Y-2Y inversion generally leads the 2Y-3M inversion. Secondly, the past 2 times when both sections of the curve were inverted, we saw a significant sell-off in equities happening soon after. Thirdly, the inversions also marked the start of the next leg up for gold. With peak inversion likely to pass for the 10Y-2Y curve and 2Y-3M inversion at the all-time low now, we see some potential to buy Gold and sell Equity Indices, as we’re raised over the past 2 articles! When we use the S&P500 Futures Contract and the Gold Futures contract to view the ratio of the S&P500 / Gold, this ‘Selling’ point becomes clearer! With the past 2 periods falling 59% and 69% respectively and lasting more than 700 days, this trade could take a while to play out, but the risk to reward seems attractive. As to the hypotheses of why this relationship might exist, it could reside in the idea that abrupt rate cuts likely merely take place in a time of financial distress, hence the selloff in equities and flight to safe-haven assets like gold. When rates fall off, the non-yielding assets like Gold would start to look more attractive to yield-hunting investors, which could have added fuel to the Gold rally, too. Taking a conservative target of 35% lower from the current ratio level of 2, we position a short in the S&P 500 / Gold ratio by selling 1 S&P 500 Futures and buying 1 Gold Futures, at the current price of 1980 for CME April 2023Gold Futures (GCJ3) and 4010 for the CME June 2023 (ESM3 ) S&P 500 Futures, the notional value of the position for the long & short leg is almost equal at; Long GCJ3: 1980*100 = 198,000 Short ESM3: 4010 * 50 = 200,500 Setting up such a spread trade requires some monitoring of the difference in notional value to ensure that the position is properly hedged. Each 0.25-point move in the ESM3 contract is equal to 12.5 USD while a 0.1-point move in the GCJ3 contract is equal to 10 USD. Trading this spread would be eligible for a margin offset of up to 70%, meaning that the capital required to set up this trade is much lower.

US02Y: BOND MELTDOWN / 4.00% CROSS / MACD CONVERGENCE / RSIDESCRIPTION: In the chart above I have provided a simple MACRO ANALYSIS on current bond market meltdown where the US02Y dropped nearly 25% within FIVE TRADING SESSIONS. POINTS: 1. US02Y deviation is simple & marked at every 1% difference as bonds rise and fall within the same range percentage therefore it has a rubber band like price action relationship with it's lowest 1% points. 2. Overlapping Orange Line represents ES1! a US Market Future. 3. Dotted Green Lines represent continuous downward momentum in past Bear Markets (2002 & 2008). 4. Bubbles overlapping dotted green lines represent initial break of supporting bond percentage %. IMO: In my opinion the most concerning factor to take into consideration when it comes to current bond positioning is the STEEP RISE IN PERCENTAGE especially when the overall US market momentum is tied to BOND PERCENTAGE during both RISES & FALLS & the STEEPER THE INCLINE THE STEEPER THE DECLINE can become. MACD: Notice a complete meltdown of Bonds when MACD confirms convergence to MEDIAN & eventually breaks past median and falls into into negative territory. RSI: Notice that unlike in other recessions RSI levels have seen more consistent exposure to MEDIAN of 50. But as of lately from a MACRO perspective that is not the case as we have seen current RSI levels linger around 70 or above in EXTREMELY OVERBOUGHT TERRITORY. SCENARIO #1: In a very BEARISH scenario we come to see BONDS PERCENTAGE go through a complete free fall. SCENARIO #2: In a less BEARISH scenario we come to see BONDS PERCENTAGE go through an extended consolidation phase with PERCENTAGE LINGERING ABOVE 4%. FULL CHART LINK: www.tradingview.com TVC:US02Y

US02Y is on a breaking point. Great news for stocks!The U.S. Government Bonds 2 YR Yield (US02Y) is testing its 1W MA50 (blue trend-line) for the first time since May 31 2021. The 1W RSI is on the very same Lower Highs trend-line rejection that it was during the December 17 2018 1W MA50 test! Needless to say this shows that the price is on a critical point as when it broke in Dec 2018, a downtrend followed that was at the bottom of the U.S. - China trade war and sent stocks (black trend-line = S&P500) on a 1 year mega-rally (until the COVID crash).

$TNX US02Y are CRATERING, Yields falling hardLast week we mentioned that #yields cratering like they did was not normal. Currently they are all at support with $TNX holding better than short term yields. The 10Yr has BOUNCED a bit off support. In a positive note it does lessens the inverted Yield curve :D We'll see how this scenario holds. What's happening today is more SPECULATION than anything else. The belief is that the #fed will stop raising rates due to the the bank closures that are happening. IMO I don't think it'll stop them but MAY slow them down a bit. The Fed Reserve HAS to pick between #economy & #stocks. While the Fed has been friendly to equities and markets in the past its main concern in the US Economy. They also care about the US #dollar.

DXY is now Risk On scenario now as banking sector gets crushed!Sharks are smelling blood in the banking sector and they are loading up to strike. Last week, we saw Silvergate Bank collapse and shortly after that, Silicon Valley bank (SVB). Within 48 hours, 2 moderate size regional banks went under. Last Friday, several banks tanked at least 20% and few were halted due to massive shorting. The house of cards are falling and this situation looks like a Lehman Brother's. Contagion will spread to vulnerable sectors such as housing and auto. Jerome Powell wants to further increase interest rates, which will cause more destruction. Investors will be spooked and wanting to pull their money out of Dollar debt system and investments. 2 year US Treasury Bond yields dropped off the sky. With US national debt being so incredibly high at $32 Trillion and counting, US Treasuries are also no longer safe havens. Gold and Crypto perhaps? DXY just broke new lows on Daily timeframe. The bear market rally is over I believe and with the catalyst of collapsing banking sector with its contagion expectations into other sectors, DXY is Risk On now, which is Bearish.

Japanese have been selling bonds, have Yields peaked for now?One of the reasons US Treasuries, and other bonds, have been selling off is the dumping by Japanese investors. All duration #YIELDS have done well but more so the shorter term. The Inverted Yield Curve has widened over the last few months but has been significantly lately. However, today we see the 1 & 10Yr ($TNX) selling off but the 2 Yr is CRATERING! Interesting. Also interesting is that volume has been waning for investment grade and high yield bonds. Liquidity could be an issue later on if this continues.

🔥 US Bond Yields Suggest More Interest Rate Hikes: BEARISH 🚨The US 2-Year bond yields are important because they tell us how much returns an investor will get by lending his money to the government. In periods of higher economic risk, investors demand higher returns. Thus, the height of the bond yields can be used to determine whether we're in an economically risky period or not. As seen on the chart, once the 2-year yield starts increasing, the FED will increase the interest rates. Higher interest rates are BEARISH for the markets. With the 2-year yields making a new high recently, it suggests that the FED will need to increase the interest rates further. Is the current 25 basis points enough to tame inflation and market risk? Certainly not if the yields will keep like this. If the yield will keep on rising there's a decent probability that stocks will continue to go down. If so, crypto will likely follow. For now there's little reason to believe that we're going to make new bear-market lows, but once stocks will really start selling off this probability will increase. Will monitor.

US 02Y possible black swan for stocksUS 02Y is close to breakout from the bull flag. After reaching the top, the price of 2 y did consolidate but never dropped hard. After consolidation on this level, it seems it's ready to break out of the bull flag which would be very bullish for 2 Y but bearish for the market as a whole. Remember, even though a lot of retail traders follow FERD, they should follow 2 Y yield as that is what FED and Powel followed. FED is much smaller than the bond market, and the interest rate on the 2-year bond is something that is important for FED. Also one of the main problems for retail traders is most of them don't follow yield inversion which is now at a huge level. Meaning the interest rate is now higher for a 1 or 2-year bond than on 10 or 30 which is insane and is a sign of huge money indicating something big will break out soon. Every yield inversion till now finished with massive stock collapsing, so will likely now too. With the breakout of the bull flag, there would be a trigger possibility for 2 y to retest highs which would mean the FED fund rate must go much more than 5% which would be very bullish for US Dollar/DXY and very bearish for stock, crypto, and gold and silver/ commodities as a whole. A good thing would be that all would have pressure on inflation which we all need at this moment.
