(CHINA'S BIG TRADE WIN),
(SPY), (TLT), (UUP), (USO), (GLD), (SOYB),
(HOW TO USE YOUR CELL PHONE ABROAD)
Tag Archive for: (SPY)
My phone started ringing on Sunday afternoon as soon as the futures markets opened in Asia. The U.S. had reached agreement with China on trade and the Dow futures were up 200 points.
Had the next leg of the bull market begun? ?Was it time to buy?
I asked what were the specifics of the deal. There weren't any. I asked about generalities. Those were absent as well.
All they knew was that the U.S. was suspending threatened tariff increases in exchange for a vague Chinese promise to buy more U.S. exports over the long term.
It was in effect a big Chinese win. The development allows the Middle Kingdom to do nothing but stall for time until the next U.S. administration comes to power regardless of which party wins. The Chinese think in terms of centuries, so waiting three more years for a better negotiating backdrop is no big deal.
It vindicates my own call on how the Chinese trade war would play out. After a lot of threats and saber rattling, the administration would achieve nothing, declare victory, and go home.
Traders should NOT be buying this pop in stock prices on pain of death. All that will happen is that stocks will trade back up to the top of the recent range, and then stall out once again as we slide back into slow summer trading. In fact, all we have accomplished is to revisit last week's high in stocks.
Stocks (SPY) weren't buying this trade agreement for two seconds, nor were bonds (TLT), foreign exchange (UUP), gold (GLD), or energy (USO). Not even the agricultural markets were believing it. Soybeans (SOYB), the commodity most affected by the China trade, were up a measly 2.45%. If markets really believed something substantial was afoot they would be limit up three days in a row. I've seen this happen.
It was obvious that little was accomplished when you saw the endless parade of administration officials praising the deals merits. My half century of trading experience has taught me when someone is working so hard to sell you a bridge, you look the other way.
And here is the problem. Beyond cutting-edge technology, there's nothing that China HAS to buy from the U.S. China's largest imports are in energy and foodstuffs, both globally traded commodities.
The oil and gas coming out of America looks pretty much like the Saudi Arabian and Russian kind. U.S. energy infrastructure is already groaning at the seams as it approaches 11 million barrels a day.
To double that from current levels just to fill the trade gap with China would require a multi-decade effort financed with trillions of dollars in private capital just to produce more oil with prices at a three-year high. In other words, it isn't going to happen.
The same is true with agriculture. I doubt there is a single farmer in the country willing to risk his own money to increase production on the back of the China deal. Rainfall is a much bigger concern.
In the end, stocks will eventually rise to new highs by the end of the year, just not right now. And they will do so on the back of the prodigious earnings growth of U.S. companies, which has been expanding at a breakneck pace for nearly a decade.
It is notable that the only major index that hit new highs today was the small cap Russell 2000 (IWM) where the constituent companies essentially do NO trade with China.
To believe otherwise would be giving the cock the credit for the sun rising, which happens every morning like clockwork.
It Worked Again!

(JOIN ME ON THE QUEEN MARY 2 FOR THE MAD HEDGE JULY 11, 2018 SEMINAR AT SEA),
(THE MARKET OUTLOOK FOR THE WEEK AHEAD, or NO TRADE),
($INDU), (SPY), (TLT), ($TNX), (CPB)
That was the most boring week of 2018.
Not only did we get no net movement; the range was an infinitesimal 200 Dow points. It was hardly enough to make a dog's breakfast.
Of course, the big news was the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury bond (TLT), which rose to 3.12%, a seven-year high. You might have expected this to prompt a complete stock market rout. It didn't. Maybe that is next week's business.
It is rare that the bullish and bearish arguments reach a perfect balance, but that is what we got. In the meantime, trading volume is shrinking, never a good sign. Will the last one to leave please shut out the lights?
Which is all an indication of what I have been warning you about for months. This is setting up to be a dreadful summer. If you've already made your year, with a 19.88% gain like I have, you're better off taking a long cruise than trying to outsmart the algorithms.
I managed to squeeze off only one trade so far this month. I sold short the S&P 500 (SPY) right at the high of the week. However, when the downside momentum failed, and a Volatility Index (VIX) spike failed to confirm, I bailed for a small profit. Pickings are indeed thin.
Whenever my trading slows down, I get the inevitable customer complaints. My answer is always the same. Reach for the marginal trade and you will get your fingers bit off. Don't be in such a hurry to lose money. As my wise Latin professor used to say, "Festina lente," or "make haste slowly."
My May return is +0.53%, my year-to-date return stands at a robust 19.83%, my trailing one-year return has risen to 56.25%, and my eight-year profit sits at a 296.30% apex.
And remember, the market is making this move in the face of rising oil prices and interest rates, always bull market killers.
To mix a few metaphors, when the sun, moon, and stars line up once again I'll go pedal to the metal with the Trade Alerts once again.
If you held a gun to my head and ordered me to tell you how the markets will play out for the rest of the year, try this.
We remain is this narrowing trading range for months, ending with a final decisive break of the 200-day moving average to the downside, now at 23,909. But we find a new low only 1,000 points, or 4% below that.
Then we launch into the post midterm election year-end rally, which could take stocks up 15% to 20% from the 23,000 low. This is why I have been saying that the best trades of 2018 are ahead of us.
So, renew that subscription!
To witness how cruel and stock specific the current market is, look no further than hapless Campbell Soup (CPB), the first ticker symbol I have had to look up this year. There is probably not a reader alive who was not nursed back to health by its iconic red canned chicken noodle soup.
A surprise earnings loss triggered a hellacious 14% one-day plunge. It is the first big victim of the new steel tariffs. Although it amounts to only a few pennies a can, that can be disastrous in this hyper-competitive world. It also turns out that Millennials prefer eating fresh food rather that the canned stuff.
Give thanks for small mercies. With three daughters I am at ultimate risk for a tab for three weddings. The nuptials for Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are thought to cost $45 million, most of it on security. Hopefully I will not someday become the father-in-law of a prince.
This coming week has a plethora of Fed speakers, some key housing numbers, and that's about it.
On Monday, May 21, at 8:30 AM, we get April Chicago Fed National Activity Index.
On Tuesday, May 22, nothing of note is announced.
On Wednesday, May 23, at 10:00 AM, the April New Home Sales.
Thursday, May 24, leads with the Weekly Jobless Claims at 8:30 AM EST, which saw a rise of 11,000 last week from a 43-year low. At 10:00 AM, we get April Existing Home Sales.
On Friday, May 25, at 8:30 AM EST, we get April Durable Goods Orders.
We wrap up with the Baker Hughes Rig Count at 1:00 PM EST.
As for me, I will be spending the weekend putting the finishing touches on my 2018 Mad Hedge European Tour.
Thanks to rising U.S. interest rates and a strong dollar, the price of a continental trip has dropped about 10% since the beginning of the year. Got to love that Swiss franc at 1:1 parity with the greenback. Maybe I can afford an extra cheese fondue.
Good Luck and Good Trading.

(GET READY FOR THE COMING GOLDEN AGE),
(SPY), (INDU), (FXE), (FXY), (UNG), (EEM), (USO),
(TLT), (NSANY), (TSLA)
I believe that the global economy is setting up for a new golden age reminiscent of the one the United States enjoyed during the 1950s, and which I still remember fondly.
This is not some pie in the sky prediction. It simply assumes a continuation of existing trends in demographics, technology, politics, and economics. The implications for your investment portfolio will be huge.
What I call "intergenerational arbitrage" will be the principal impetus. The main reason that we are now enduring two "lost decades" of economic growth is that 80 million baby boomers are retiring to be followed by only 65 million "Gen Xers."
When the majority of the population is in retirement mode, it means that there are fewer buyers of real estate, home appliances, and "RISK ON" assets such as equities, and more buyers of assisted living facilities, health care, and "RISK OFF" assets such as bonds.
The net result of this is slower economic growth, higher budget deficits, a weak currency, and registered investment advisors who have distilled their practices down to only municipal bond sales.
Fast forward six years when the reverse happens and the baby boomers are out of the economy, worried about whether their diapers get changed on time or if their favorite flavor of Ensure is in stock at the nursing home.
That is when you have 65 million Gen Xers being chased by 85 million of the "millennial" generation trying to buy their assets.
By then we will not have built new homes in appreciable numbers for 20 years and a severe scarcity of housing hits. Residential real estate prices will soar. Labor shortages will force wage hikes.
The middle-class standard of living will reverse a then 40-year decline. Annual GDP growth will return from the current subdued 2% rate to near the torrid 4% seen during the 1990s.
The stock market rockets in this scenario. Share prices may rise very gradually for the rest of the teens as long as tepid 2% growth persists. A 5% annual gain takes the Dow to 28,000 by 2019.
After that, after a brief dip, we could see the same fourfold return we saw during the Clinton administration, taking the Dow to 100,000 by 2030. If I'm wrong, it will hit 200,000 instead.
Emerging stock markets (EEM) with much higher growth rates do far better.
This is not just a demographic story. The next 20 years should bring a fundamental restructuring of our energy infrastructure as well.
The 100-year supply of natural gas (UNG) we have recently discovered through the new "fracking" technology will finally make it to end users, replacing coal (KOL) and oil (USO). Fracking applied to oilfields is also unlocking vast new supplies.
Since 1995, the United States Geological Survey estimate of recoverable reserves has ballooned from 150 million barrels to 8 billion. OPEC's share of global reserves is collapsing.
This is all happening while automobile efficiencies are rapidly improving and the use of public transportation soars.
Mileage for the average U.S. car has jumped from 23 to 24.7 miles per gallon in the past couple of years, and the administration is targeting 50 mpg by 2025. Total gasoline consumption is now at a five-year low.
Alternative energy technologies will also contribute in an important way in states such as California, accounting for 30% of total electric power generation by 2020, and 50% by 2030.
I now have an all-electric garage, with a Nissan Leaf (NSANY) for local errands and a Tesla Model S-1 (TSLA) for longer trips, allowing me to disappear from the gasoline market completely. Millions will follow. The net result of all of this is lower energy prices for everyone.
It will also flip the U.S. from a net importer to an exporter of energy, with hugely positive implications for America's balance of payments. Eliminating our largest import and adding an important export is very dollar bullish for the long term.
That sets up a multiyear short for the world's big energy consuming currencies, especially the Japanese yen (FXY) and the Euro (FXE). A strong greenback further reinforces the bull case for stocks.
Accelerating technology will bring another continuing positive. Of course, it's great to have new toys to play with on the weekends, send out Facebook photos to the family, and edit your own home videos.
But at the enterprise level this is enabling speedy improvements in productivity that are filtering down to every business in the U.S., lowering costs everywhere.
This is why corporate earnings have been outperforming the economy as a whole by a large margin.
Profit margins are at an all-time high. Living near booming Silicon Valley, I can tell you that there are thousands of new technologies and business models that you have never heard of under development.
When the winners emerge, they will have a big cross-leveraged effect on economy.
New health care breakthroughs will make serious disease a thing of the past, which are also being spearheaded in the San Francisco Bay area.
This is because the Golden State thumbed its nose at the federal government 10 years ago when the stem cell research ban was implemented. It raised $3 billion through a bond issue to fund its own research, even though it couldn't afford it.
I tell my kids they will never be afflicted by my maladies. When they get cancer in 20 years they will just go down to Wal-Mart and buy a bottle of cancer pills for $5, and it will be gone by Friday.
What is this worth to the global economy? Oh, about $2 trillion a year, or 4% of GDP. Who is overwhelmingly in the driver's seat on these innovations? The USA.
There is a political element to the new golden age as well. Gridlock in Washington can't last forever. Eventually, one side or another will prevail with a clear majority.
This will allow the government to push through needed long-term structural reforms, the solution of which everyone agrees on now, but for which nobody wants to be blamed.
That means raising the retirement age from 66 to 70 where it belongs and means-testing recipients. Billionaires don't need the maximum $30,156 annual supplement. Nor do I.
The ending of our foreign wars and the elimination of extravagant unneeded weapons systems cuts defense spending from $800 billion a year to $400 billion, or back to the 2000, pre-9/11 level. Guess what happens when we cut defense spending? So does everyone else.
I can tell you from personal experience that staying friendly with someone is far cheaper than blowing them up.
A Pax Americana would ensue.
That means China will have to defend its own oil supply, instead of relying on us to do it for them. That's why they have recently bought a second used aircraft carrier. The Middle East is now their headache.
The national debt then comes under control, and we don't end up like Greece.
The long-awaited Treasury bond (TLT) crash never happens. The Fed has already told us as much by indicating that the Federal Reserve will only raise interest rates at an infinitesimally slow rate of 25 basis points a quarter.
Sure, this is all very long-term, over-the-horizon stuff. You can expect the financial markets to start discounting a few years hence, even though the main drivers won't kick in for another decade.
But some individual industries and companies will start to discount this rosy scenario now.
Perhaps this is what the nonstop rally in stocks since 2009 has been trying to tell us.

(ANATOMY OF A GREAT TRADE)
(TLT), (TBT), (SPY), (GLD), (USO),
(CYBERSECURITY IS ONLY JUST GETTING STARTED),
(PANW), (HACK), (FEYE), (CSCO), (FTNT), (JNPR), (CIBR)
So, I'm sitting here agonizing over whether I should sell short the US Treasury bond market (TLT) once again.
Thanks to the bombshell Israel announced today alleging the existence of a secret Iranian nuclear missile program, oil has rallied by 2%, the US dollar has soared, and stocks have been crushed.
The (TLT) has popped smartly, some $2.5 points off of last week's low, taking yields down from a four-year high at 3.03% down to 2.93%.
The report is probably based on false intelligence, which is becoming a regular thing in the Middle East. Suffice it to say that the presenter, Prime Minister Benjamin "Bibi" Netanyahu, may soon be indicted on corruption charges. Clearly, they are going "American" in the Holy Land.
But for today, the market believes it.
You can understand me chomping at the bit, as selling short US government bonds has been my new rich uncle since the market last peaked in July 2017.
I just ran my Trade Alert history over the past nine months and here is what I found.
I sent you 38 Trade Alerts to sell short bonds generating 18 round trips, AND EVERY SINGLE ONE WAS PROFITABLE! In total these Alerts generated a trading profit of 216%, or 21.62% of my total portfolio return.
That means 35% of my profits over the past year came from selling short Treasuries.
You should do the same.
Falling Treasury prices have been one of the few sustainable trends in financial markets during the past year.
Stock rallied, then gave up a chunk. Gold (GLD) has gone nowhere. Only oil has surpassed as a sustainable trade, thanks to successful OPEC production quotas, which have been extended multiple times.
Texas tea is up an admirable 67% since the June $42 low. And who was loading up on crude way down there?
Absolutely no one.
Of course, I have an unfair advantage as a bond trader, as I have been doing this for nearly 50 years.
I caught the big inflation driven fixed income collapse during the 1970s, which had a major assist then from a rapidly devaluing US dollar.
That's when they brought out zero-coupon bonds, effectively increasing our leverage by 500% for virtually no cost. Principal only strips followed, another license to bring money on the short side.
The big lesson from trading this market for a half century is that trends last for a really long time. The bull market in bonds that started in 1982, when 10-year yields hit 14%, lasted for 33 years.
As we are less than three years into the current bear market the opportunities are rife. We are very early into the new game. This one could last for the rest of my life.
The reasons are quite simple. The fundamentals demand it.
1) The Global Synchronized Recovery is accelerating.
2) The Fed will start dropping on the bond market in the very near future $6 billion a month, or $200 million a day, worth of paper in its QE unwind.
3) Tax cuts will provide further stimulus for the US economy.
4) With the foreign exchange markets now laser-focused on America's exploding deficits, a weak US dollar has triggered a capital flight out of the US.
5) We also now have evidence that China has started to dump its massive $1 trillion in US Treasury bond holdings.
All are HUGELY bond negative.
All of this should take bonds down to new 2018 lows. What we could be seeing here is the setting up for the perfect head and shoulders top of the (TLT) for 2018.
As for that next Trade Alert, I think I'll hold out for a better price to sell again. What's the point in spoiling a perforce record?

(APRIL 25 BIWEEKLY STRATEGY WEBINAR Q&A),
(TLT), (TBT), (GOOGL), (NVDA), (PIN),
(SPY), (C), (AMD), (EEM), (HEDJ)
Below please find subscribers Q&A for the Mad Hedge Fund Trader April Global Strategy Webinar with my guest co-host Mike Pisani of Smart Option Trading.
As usual, every asset class long and short was covered. You are certainly an inquisitive lot, and keep those questions coming!
Q: Are you out of Alphabet (GOOGL) and Microsoft (MSFT)?
A. I'm out of Alphabet and I'm in Microsoft, but only for the very short term. I'm waiting for another big meltdown day to go back and buy everything back because I think the FANGs and technology in general are still in a secular bull market.
Q. Are Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) and NVIDIA (NVDA) affected by the underperformance of Bitcoin?
A. They are. Bitcoin has been an important part of the chip story for the last two years because mining, or the creation of bitcoins, creates enormous demand for chips to do the processing. I think selling in bitcoin is over for the time being. You had a $25 billion in capital gains taxes that had to be paid by April 15.
People were paying those bills by selling their bitcoins. That's over now, and bitcoin is rallied about 30% since Tax Day because of that. So, yes, bitcoin is getting so big that it is starting to affect the chip sector meaningfully. That is another reason why we see secular long-term growth in the entire chip sector.
Mike Pisani: Interesting take on bitcoin today, and I've been with you on it. I think the worst of it is over; it's going to go. Today is the largest volume day we've seen on it so far. We're up over 15,500 contracts traded.
Q: If you're 100% cash, is now a good time to commit funds to the equity market?
A. Franz, I would say nein. Absolutely not. 2009 was the time to commit funds to the equity market. If you're 100% cash now I would stay out for the next six months. We may get a good entry point over the summer or the fall. I'll let you know when that happens because I will be jumping back in myself.
But right now, a week ahead of the worst six months of equity investment of the year, I would stay away and do research instead. Read your Mad Hedge Fund Trader letters. Build a list of names that you're going to buy on the next meltdown and practice buying meltdowns with your practice account, which doesn't use real money.
There's a lot of things you can get ready to do for the next leg up in the bull market, but buying right now, NO! I would put that in the category of, "Is it time to start shorting bonds question?" that we got a few minutes ago.
Q: Why did tech stocks sell off when they have great earnings results?
A: It's called, "Buy the rumor, sell the news." So many people already own the stocks and were expecting good earnings that there was no surprise when they were announced. These are some of the most over-owned stocks in history.
Everybody in the world owns them. Many people have multiple weightings in them, so when we enter a high-risk macro environment, which we have now, you want to get rid of the most over-owned stocks. That is exactly why all of these stocks that have had great runs are selling off, even though they have great earnings report.
Q: Are financials a good play here with interest rates rising though 3%?
A. Normally I would say yes. However, the macro background for the general market are so negative they are overwhelming any positive fundamentals specific to individual sectors like banks and stocks like Citigroup (C). By the way, financials all reported great results and got killed, so that is why I bailed out of my (C) position this morning at around cost. If you throw the best news in the world on a stock and it won't go up, it's time to get out of there.
Q: Would an unleveraged inverse ETF like the ProShares Short S&P 500 ETF (SH) be good at a spike even now?
A. Yes, but when I say spike up better expect at least 20 (SPY) points or 1,000 Dow points. All these downside ETFs are great but you've got to get in at the right price. You know as they say in trading school, the profit is always made on the "BUY" and not on the "SELL."
So, if you can get on one of these super spikes up on the short side that is a great trade. So is the ProShares Ultra Short ETF (SDS) if you want to do the 2X leverage short fund. We've recently started doing this every month. We've been shorting (SPY)s and buying (VIX) on every one of these spikes up, and it's been working like a charm.
Q: Here's the best question of the day. Your timing has been perfect says Mary in Chicago, Ill.
A: Well, I'll take that kind of question all day long. Thank you very much. You're too nice to do that.
Q: Richard is asking would you buy an NVIDIA (NVDA) LEAP?
A: I would wait for meltdown days. Remember this is a market that gives you lots of meltdown days. Just wait for the next presidential tweet and you might get another 600-700-point dip in the markets. Those are the days you buy LEAPS. You don't have to get buy writing Trade Alerts like I do. You can just enter a limit order in your account. Put it as a stupidly low level to "BUY" and you may get hit. And that's where you really make the big money in this kind of market.
Q: Is there a good one- or two-month trade in Amazon?
A: Yeah, Paul, with this volatility you can pick a big winner like Amazon and you know to buy the 250-point dips and sell the rallies. These ranges are so wide now that even a beginner can make money. So, I would say you have to wait until after tomorrow on Amazon and let them get their earnings out. We know they're going to be great. They're doing home deliveries now to your car.
Q: Can long bond interest rates go up to 4%, and if that happens what would the market do?
A: Yes, they can go up to 4%, and I expect them to probably do that next year. What will it do to the market? Answer: Cause a bear market and a recession. Is that answer clear enough? My bet is that interest rates cap in this cycle much lower than they did in past cycles, maybe 4%-5%. We have been used to zero cost of money for so long that a move to 4% would be like stabbing somebody in the chest. People are much less able to deal with rising rates than they ever have been in the past, so watch this space.
Q: Should I buy the ProShares Ultra Short Treasury ETF (TBT) or the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond Fund (TLT)?
A: Brad, it's really is a leverage question for you. The (TLT) is 1X; the TBT is 2X, so I would be taking profits on the (TBT) here and then buying a couple of points lower. Or if you want to keep it for the long term you can but remember the cost of carry on the TBT is around 7% a year.
Q: Yves in Paris, France is asking: What possible scenario will you see material wage growth that could lead to higher inflation?
A: We're starting to see that now with the ultra-low unemployment rates. People are having great difficulty hiring anyone in technology. But at the minimum wage level there seems to be plenty of supply. The other possibility is that the cost of everything else goes up but wages, because technology is replacing jobs so fast there may never be any increase in wages.
So, we will get inflation, but nothing like the inflation we saw in the past driven by rising wages, commodity prices, oil prices, and interest rates. Yes, money is a commodity, which can add quite a lot to the cost of leveraged companies like airlines, REITs, and so on.
Q: Will rising interest rates force the US dollar up?
A. The answer is yes! It has been a long time coming, but if rates continue to rise from here, you can expect that to lead to a continuously rising dollar and falling foreign currencies, and that will become a major drag on the economy and corporate earnings going forward.
Q: When is a good time to buy TIPS?
A: Just like your Treasury bond short, I would buy Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS) on the next rally in bond prices (TLT) and dip in yields. That will give you a decent entry point. That said, TIPS have been a horrible performer for the last 10 years because there has just been no inflation. A lot of people just keep TIPS as a hedge in their portfolio and it just costs them money every year.
Q: Which could blow up, Brad wants to know, TBT or TLT?
A: The easy answer there is probably neither. But if I had to pick between the two, the (TBT) would be the one to blow up because it's a 2X and has a lot less liquidity. So, I can't image in what world has (TBT) blowing up, but then I don't watch zombie TV shows either.
Q: I think US equities are expensive. Are emerging markets (EEM) or Europe (HEDJ) a better bet for the rest of the year?
A: I would say yes. Because if interest rates here in the US go higher that means a stronger dollar. That means a weaker US stock market. Because US companies are punished by a rising dollar. And European and Asian companies benefit from a rising dollar and falling home currencies, so that makes Europe the first choice of any of the global markets.
Q: Does oil going to $100 have a chance of bringing down the US economy?
A: Absolutely yes. If oil prices don't start to slow down, they will start having a big impact on the economy because that means rising prices for any energy consumer, which is you and me.
With no ability to offset that by rising prices of your products that would put a squeeze on any oil consuming industry, which is why things like the transports and consumer staples have been performing so poorly. If we get to $100, then you're really looking at a full-on recession and bear market for stocks. By bear market I mean down 25% or more in stocks.
Q: How do you see the India ETF?
A: We like it. India is the No. 1 pick of any hedge fund investor in emerging markets, and the ETF you can buy there is the PowerShares India Portfolio ETF (PIN).
