Central banks adopted a cautious tone on monetary policy, driving gold to a new high last week. The EUR suffered a 'sell the news' reaction following the announcement of Germany's spending plans. President Trump's comments on tariff flexibility provided a boost to the S&P 500 late on Friday. Looking ahead, this week promises to be eventful, with over 50 corporate results from China, and Ukraine peace talks. Investors will be closely watching Friday's US PCE inflation data. According to Mensur Pocinci, Head of Technical Analysis, a sustained rebound in US stocks will require broad-based buying and a shift in behaviour from retail investors - refraining from buying every dip in the market.00:00 Introduction by Bernadette Anderko (Investment Writing)00:28 Markets wrap-up by Mike Rauber (Investment Writing)06:28 Technical Analysis update by Mensur Pocinci (Head of Technical Analysis)08:23 Closing remarks by Bernadette Anderko (Investment Writing)Would you like to support this show?

Michael Oliver, CEO and founder of Momentum Structural Analysis, joins me to share how he sees the technical momentum setup in gold, silver, US general equities, precious metals stocks via the XAU index, the US dollar, bonds / interest rates, and commodities.   We start off getting his technical outlook on gold and silver; where Michael postulates that when the US general equities really start to roll over, that a portion of investors will rotate funds into gold, silver, and the PM equities.  In addition to remaining constructive on gold, where dips should be bought, Michael points out that the setup in silver and the precious metals equities are setting up to make a bigger breakout versus gold, and he is also keeping a close eye on the gold to silver ratio.   We then shifted over to the nuances and difference in what the pricing chart in the S&P 500 or Nasdaq was showing versus the picture shaping up in them momentum framework. Michael is anticipating a correction and cooling off in US general equities, but notes it doesn't need to be a sudden crash, but really more of a protracted bear market in US equities.  Despite this future bearish backdrop for US equities, he still sees the pathway forward where gold and silver equities can attract a bid, from money rotating out of stocks into the precious metals complex overall due to rising underlying metals prices. He points to periods of times in late 1970s where we had a similar setup of market forces, and points out the XAU index has been both outperforming the US equities and even Gold for some time, even if GDX hasn't quite performed as well.   We then move into his analysis of the US dollar and trends in interest rates and bonds.  He points to the potential to see bonds get a short to medium term bid along with gold as safe havens outside of the general equities, for investors want to diversify some exposure into these asset classes, but that longer-term he still remains bearish on the larger pattern playing out in bonds.   Wrapping up we take a look at the commodities sector through the lens of the Bloomberg commodities index, noting the commodities haven't tracked with gold thus far, but that may about to be ready to change where commodities pick up some of the money rotation bid as well. In particular, Michael is constructive on the soft commodities and grains complex, as well as fertilizers, farmland, and related agricultural sectors.  He believes that a second major leg higher in commodities complex is setting up.   Click here to follow along with Michael Oliver's work

While European equity markets rose in yesterday's trading, their US counterparts had a rough day as the latest economic data added to speculation that the Federal Reserve will leave interest rates unchanged this month amid inflationary pressures. This pushed Treasury yields higher across the curve, with traders no longer fully pricing in a Fed rate cut before July. Dario Messi, Head of Fixed Income Research, tells us why he would tactically take the opportunity to close any duration gap, but would still avoid excessive duration at this stage.00:00 Introduction by Bernadette Anderko (Investment Writing)00:31 Markets wrap-up by Jan Bopp (Investment Writing)05:40 Starting the year with higher bond yields: Dario Messi (Head of Fixed Income Research)11:00 Closing remarks by Bernadette Anderko (Investment Writing)Would you like to support this show?

Sean Brodrick, Editor of Wealth Megatrends and contributing analyst to Weiss Ratings Daily, joins us to unpack the ongoing euphoria in the post-election “Trump Trade,” which has seen strong buying in US equities, but we wonder how much is already priced to perfection before the new administration even gets going in January of next year.   We also discuss how the strong US Dollar may eventually roll over and start to weaken again in the year to come, and how that could be a driver of investment capital into gold and gold equities.  Rounding out the discussion we also review many of the tailwinds for nuclear energy that are giving a boost to both uranium equities, small modular reactor stocks, enrichment stocks, and potential ties in with utility companies.   Click here to follow along with Sean's work at Weiss Ratings Daily and Wealth Megatrends   Click here to learn more about Resource Trader

Ben Carrier, Vice President of US Equities at Vaughan Nelson, recaps the Small Cap Value strategy's 3rd Quarter of 2024.

Nick Hodge, Co-Owner of Digest Publishing and editor of Foundational Profits and Hodge Family Office, joins us for a longer-format discussion on the beginning of the Fed rate cutting cycle, as shift from growth to value sectors within US equities, and the case for higher commodities prices in copper and uranium to fuel policy initiatives.  We also get a recap on his recent site visit in Peru to visit the flagship exploration project Hannan Metals.   When looking at the macroeconomic factors moving markets, we discuss how the beginning of the central bank rate cuts will impact rate-sensitive sectors like utilities, real estate held in REITs, the financial sector and gold. This brings up the recent trend where money is rotating some out of the magnificent 7 and growth tech stocks,  into those types of value sectors, including  consumer staples and hard assets.   Shifting over into the commodities and resource stocks, the conversation gets into all of the policy initiatives for the green transition in energy, and EVs, and how the move from coal to nuclear power is obvious, but will require more production from uranium mines, as well as more lithium and cobalt resources to come online for batteries.  We also review all the projections around A.I. data centers and how few generalists are really considering the massive amounts of copper that are going to be required. This brings up the point about the long lead times needed to bring mines in to production, and that something needs to be done to expedite permitting bottlenecks.  Nick points to the timeline of over a decade to finally see the recent positive permitting outcome for Perpetua Resources (Nasdaq: PPTA) (TSX: PPTA) authorizing the Stibnite Gold Project for their antimony and gold, as an example of how long these processes can take, and the patience required as resource investors.   Wrapping up we discuss the site visit he just returned to from Peru, visiting the flagship Valiente Copper-Gold Project for Hannan Metals (TSXV:HAN)(OTC PINK:HANNF), and the exploration upside present, and some of the unique observations made seeing the project in person and talking to local community and stakeholders.   Click here to follow Nick's analysis and publications over at Digest Publishing

Sean Brodrick, Editor of Wealth Megatrends and contributing analyst to Weiss Ratings Daily, joins us to review how he is sitting tight through the recent downward pressure and volatility within US Equities, but also seeing value building in home builders, tech stocks, oil and natural gas stocks, and uranium stocks.   We start off having Sean outline some of the drivers of the recent market weakness.  He points out that a number of earnings reports have shown that the ROI has not been there for all the investment into artificial intelligence, and that many US companies are guiding for weakening earnings moving forward. Then there is all of the weakness from the Japanese Yen carry trade unwinding.  Another layer of market uncertainty and volatility is coming from the political uncertainty around US elections this November, and which sectors would stand to benefit based on which administration is in charge.  Then there are concerns about weakening macroeconomic data points that have accelerated into more fears of an imminent recession; which Sean feels is getting a bit overblown.  Then one more big factor is the markets perceptions that the Fed is, once again, behind the curve with it's monetary policies, and have stayed tight for too long.   Sean sees in the value in interest rate sensitive sectors like the home builder stocks, REITs, and auto-related stocks, as well as some of the tech and semiconductor companies that are now getting a bit oversold.  With regards to the commodities sector, he continues to hold tight in the oil and nat gas stocks, as well as the uranium stocks, expecting both to still do well in the medium to longer-term, despite their recent corrective moves lower. He sees global growth being robust enough to underpin more need for electricity from natural gas plants and nuclear power plants, and feels the recent corrections in both nat gas and uranium, fly in the face of the fundamental factors at play.    Click here to follow along with Sean's work at Weiss Ratings Daily   Click here to learn more about Resource Trader

Sean Brodrick, Editor of Wealth Megatrends and contributing analyst to Weiss Ratings Daily, joins us to review the rotation trade within US Equities, but also into beat up value sector stocks, gold, the re-industrialization of America stocks, and uranium stocks.   We start off discussing the rotation trade out of the mega-cap tech leadership and down into both smaller cap growth stocks.  Sean weaves in his take on the supposed “Trump trade” that many outlets are touting, but outlines that many of the trends due to anticipated tariffs, or increased energy drilling are at odds with market signals.  This then brings in the discussion of anticipated Fed rate cuts, how many and how impactful they may be, and what that could mean for regional banks and homebuilders.    Next we move over into opportunities Sean sees in the value stocks, like real estate and healthcare, dividend-paying stocks, and also gold.  He also breaks down how 3 separate fiscal spending bills passed are very bullish for the “re-industrialization of America” and companies that can help with the build out of new infrastructure.   With regards to the uranium stocks, he remains very encouraged based on the number of reactors being built or planned globally, and the increased receptivity to nations with regards to nuclear power. One of the big catalysts we discuss is how the changes to the taxes have increased in Kazakhstan, and how that may limit any big increases from Kazatomprom in production in the medium-term.  As for the uranium stocks, Sean is more animated by the uranium companies that are either in production, or that have a near-term pathway to production.   Click here to follow along with Sean's work at Weiss Ratings Daily   Click here to learn more about Resource Trader

Our Head of Corporate Credit Research shares four reasons that he believes credit spreads are likely to stay near their current lows.----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Andrew Sheets, Head of Corporate Credit Research at Morgan Stanley. Along with my colleagues bringing you a variety of perspectives, today I'll be talking about why being negative credit isn't as obvious as it looks, despite historically low spreads.It's Friday, July 19th at 2pm in London.We're constructive on credit. We think the asset class likes moderation, and that's exactly what Morgan Stanley forecasts expect: moderate growth, moderating inflation and moderating policy rates. Corporate activity is also modest; and even though it's picking up, we haven't yet seen the really aggressive types of corporate behavior that tend to make bondholders unhappy. Meanwhile, demand for the asset class is strong, and we think the start of Fed rate cuts in September could make it even stronger as money comes out of money market funds, looking to lock in current interest rates for longer in all sorts of bonds – including corporate bonds. And so while spreads are low by historical standards, our call is that helpful fundamentals and demand will keep them low, at least for the time being. But the question of credit's valuation is important. Indeed, one of the most compelling bearish arguments in credit is pretty straightforward: current spreads are near some of their lowest levels of several prior cycles. They've repeatedly struggled to go lower. And if they can't go lower, positioning for spreads to go wider and for the market to go weaker, well, it would seem like pretty good risk/reward. This is an extremely fair question! But there are four reasons why we think the case to be negative isn't as straightforward as this logic might otherwise imply.First, a historical quirk of credit valuations is that spreads rarely trade at long-run average. They are often either much wider, in times of stress, or much tighter, in periods of calm. In statistical terms, spreads are bi-modal – and in the mid 1990s or mid 2000's, they were able to stay near historically tight levels for a pretty extended period of time. Second, work by my colleague Vishwas Patkar and our US Credit Strategy team notes that, if you make some important adjustments to current credit spreads, for things like quality, bond price, and duration, current spreads don't look quite as rich relative to prior lows. Current investment grade spreads in the US, for example, may still be 20 basis points wider than levels of January 2020, right before the start of COVID. Third, a number of the key buyers of corporate bonds at the moment are being driven by the level of yields, which are still high rather than spread, which are admittedly low. That could mean that demand holds up better even in the face of lower spreads. And fourth, credit is what we'd call a positive carry asset class: sellers lose money if nothing in the market changes. That's not the case for US Treasuries, or US Equities, where those who are negative – or short – will profit if the market simply moves sideways. It's one more factor that means that, while spreads are low, we're mindful that being negative too early can still be costly. It's not as simple as it looks. Thanks for listening.

Joel Elconin, Co-Host of the Benzinga PreMarket Prep Show and Editor of PreMarket Prep, joins us to discuss the continued march to new highs in the S&P 500, the mega-cap tech leadership, a deep dive into Tesla, and technical comments on Bitcoin and gold.  Joel points out that in this market, the stories and narratives mean more than the valuations, and that capital flows will continue to pile into the tech leadership as a safe haven, and what could be dubbed a defensive bull market.   The only fly in the ointment that he sees may be the jump in crude oil from the low $70s to the mid-$80s as a potential input that may increase inflation and impact many companies in the travel and leisure side of the markets.   Click here to visit Joel's PreMarket Prep website.

Three big things you need to know: First, we are lifting our YE 2024 S&P 500 price target to 5,700 from 5,300, which we would characterize as a nervous raise. Second, we think the risks of a short-term pullback in the S&P 500 are growing, similar to what occurred in April. Third, on positioning, we think it will be tough for the US equity market to see a sustainable leadership transition away from mega cap Growth until we are through the economic soft patch.

US Credit Strategy: how does it work, who are the players, and what are the career opportunities?  Today we are discussing the structure of the Credit Strategy desk at an Investment Bank with Dominique Toublan, head of US Credit Strategy at Barclays Capital.  We discuss how you approach the vast world of corporate bonds and distill trends as a strategist, how you reconcile investor sentiment with supply/demand dynamics, and what role are you serving within the ecosystem of Wall Street.  The US Credit market --- meaning, where corporate bonds trade after they've been issued --- is orders of magnitude larger than the US Equities market.  Credit spreads, which are a measure of the riskiness associated with the debt of an individual corporate borrower, are a critical barometer of economic strength/weakness and investor risk appetite.  Understanding these dynamics is essential not only to those who wish to pursue a career in credit strategy, trading, or sales, but also for those who wish to understand the Private Credit markets and the funding dynamics that influence deal making and investment on the Private Equity and Hedge Fund side of the industry.  The Funds4Teachers event is happening the dates below:Locations/DatesAtlanta - Apr 25Boston - June 6Chicago - June 18New York - Sep 26To learn more about how to support this initiative and register click here: https://iconnections.io/funds4teachers/Follow us on Instagram and Tik Tok at @thewallstreetskinnyhttps://www.instagram.com/thewallstreetskinny/
