Market Notebook
Discussion –
PRICE ACTION:
Equity prices, as measured by ticker SPY, and bond prices, as measured by ticker BND, closed lower on the week.
TECHNICAL ANALYSIS:
Last week’s price action in SPY suggests SPY could be transitioning to consolidation. BND appears established in an upward trend.
SENTIMENT:
Market participants appear focused on near and medium-term corporate profitability.
As mentioned last week, it is possible that bond prices could decouple from equity prices in the coming weeks.
ECONOMY AND FUNDAMENTALS:
The economic indicators followed within the Market Notebook suggest a recession in the real economy is possible but not a foregone conclusion. Signals appear mixed.
NEXT WEEK:
Be on the lookout for specific opportunities in both equities and bonds.
All the best during the week ahead!
