I’ll present the weekly charts right this moment as all 5 fairness ETFs have detrimental weekly charts.
A detrimental weekly chart happens when an ETF is under its five-week modified transferring common with a declining studying in its 12x3x3 weekly sluggish stochastic.
The major motive I’ve been bearish since October started is the unwinding of the Federal Reserve stability sheet. As of Dec. 19, the Fed stability sheet was marked at $4.084 trillion, down $416 billion for the reason that finish of September 2017 when it was $4.5 trillion. The Fed is predicted to empty one other $46 billion in December. Then in 2019 and 2020, the Fed is predicted to empty $50 billion a month, a complete of one other $1.2 trillion.

The draw back danger is to the 200-day easy transferring common at $206.56, which I think about the “reversion to the mean”. The horizontal line goes again to the October 2007 excessive.
SPDR S&P 500 Trust ETF (NYSEARCA:SPY)
The weekly chart for the Spiders stays detrimental with the ETF under its five-week modified transferring common of $264.21.

When you have a look at these charts, the horizontal strains symbolize the highs earlier than the Crash of 2008. Consider strength above this line as being fueled by cash printing attributable to quantitative easing that inflated the Fed stability sheet to $4.5 trillion. The response to unwinding of the stability sheet is extra important. It’s all about Fed coverage creating asset bubbles repeatedly then popping them.
