Although leading indicators continue to signal expanding economic activity, they peaked in most major regions in late 2017/early 2018. The U.S. economy has been particularly resilient, supported by large-scale tax cuts and increased government spending. But the boost from U.S. fiscal stimulus will fade in 2019 and may even become a drag in 2020. For both the U.S. and global economy, we continue to forecast decent growth for 2019, but at a slightly reduced pace from 2018. Protectionism is among the gravest risks to growth, especially with respect to the relationship between the world’s two largest economies. Tariffs between the U.S. and China now cover hundreds of billions of dollars of trade and, while most trade models suggest the current damage from protectionism is fairly small, uncertainty over potential additional tariffs is likely exerting a greater drag. That said, tensions between the U.S. and China may have eased somewhat after Trump and Xi agreed to a temporary 90-day cease-fire in the trade war. There is no guarantee of a resolution, however, and trade skirmishes could flare up again as the end of the 90-day period draws nearer. Within North America, the signing of the USMCA has curbed the most immediate threat from protectionism. While the new NAFTA is arguably suboptimal, the possibility of a disruptive outcome has now been removed. A variety of other risks are constantly evolving. In Europe, the Brexit situation has yet to be resolved and Italy’s populist government is a constant source of uncertainty. Tightening financial conditions represent a challenge for private-sector debt, which has ballooned in size and deteriorated in quality after an extended period of ultra-low interest rates. And, as before, China’s slowing economy is particularly important because the country accounts for a third of global growth. Fortunately the Chinese government is stepping in with various stimulus measures to support the economy and prevent a hard landing. Although the economy is facing a number of headwinds, sustained economic growth and relatively firm inflation are encouraging central banks to dial back monetary accommodation. The Fed is the furthest along, having delivered several rate hikes and now shrinking its balance sheet. The Fed may soon slow its pace of tightening as interest rates approach the long-term neutral rate. We look for 3 more rate hikes in the U.S. over the next 12 months. Other major central banks have also joined the tightening trend, but at a slower pace, including the BOC and BOE. Central banks in Europe and Japan, though, are maintaining negative interest rates to fuel inflation which remains stubbornly low in those regions. That said, the ECB has taken steps to dial back the degree of accommodation, and is expected to halt bond purchases at the end of 2018, setting up for potential rate hikes in the second half of 2019. Bond yields retreated in most major regions after having risen to multi-year highs earlier in the quarter. The moderating outlook for growth boosted the demand for safe-haven assets, and the steep decline in oil since the beginning of October also weighed on the inflation premium embedded in nominal bond yields. Our models suggest that yields on 10-year government bonds in the U.S. and Canada are near equilibrium, but also that yields in other regions remain unsustainably low and are therefore at a greater risk of upward adjustment. Our models continue to forecast higher yields over the longer term in all regions, paced by a gradual increase in real rates of interest to their historical norms, although the near-term need for that adjustment has lessened considerably in North America especially. After rallying to a new high in September, the S&P 500 Index declined along with other risk assets as higher interest rates, political uncertainty and slowing global growth shook investor confidence. Emerging- market equities were particularly hard hit, with the MSCI Emerging Markets Index down more than 26% from its January peak. In aggregate, global equities offer more attractive total-return potential following the sell-off, but within regions the U.S. continues to trade at a premium relative to other markets. The price-to-earnings ratio on the S&P 500 remains above its long-term norm even after the recent correction, and rising interest rates and firming inflation are likely to limit gains from expanding valuations. Earnings growth will be critical to pushing stocks higher and, although profits have been growing quickly in 2018, they are expected to slow going forward. Earnings surged 28% on a year-over-year basis in the third quarter on sales growth of 8.6%. But without the boost from tax cuts in 2019 and moderating global growth, analysts expect earnings growth to slow to high-single-digit rates. We expect the global economy to continue expanding over our forecast horizon, but we also recognize that growth is slowing as the cycle matures. Rising rates will continue to act as a headwind to fixed income returns, but yields in North America have reset considerably over the past year and bonds also offer protection in balanced portfolios during an economic/equity-market downturn. We maintain a slight underweight position in fixed income, but have taken advantage of the increase in yields earlier in the quarter to add one percentage point to our bond allocation, sourced from cash. Prospective returns for equities remain higher than those for fixed income should the economy continue to grow as we expect. As a result, we continue to maintain an above-benchmark exposure to equities to benefit from potential upside in corporate profits, but given we are in the later stages of the business cycle and that the risk of recession is rising according to our indicators, the size of our overweight is less aggressive than it has been. Our current recommended asset mix for a global balanced investor is 58% equities (strategic: “neutral”: 55%), 41% bonds (strategic “neutral”: 43%) and 1% in cash.

  • A LOOK AHEAD January 2019
    Market Comment A LOOK AHEAD January 2019 As the saying goes, no one rings a bell at the top of the market. This well-known saying is certainly true. The reasons put forward for the correction seem somewhat far-fetched from our point of view; after all, rising interest rates and the trade conflict between the USA and China, in particular, have been talking points for months. Rather, it seems to us that after years of rising prices, the market was overpriced and overbought, and the mood among investors was over-optimistic. The sharp correction of the past few months did a lot of damage, especially in technical terms. Over the following pages, we explain why we first expect a significant countertrend rally before the stock markets continue their correction in 2019. Thus we recommend a highly defensive investment policy. A Look Back – Key Messages Last July Equities The current economic expansion is among the longest in history. Currencies But signs are mounting that the current cycle is mature and we We do expect the current dollar rally to be nearly over and see the risk of a recession by autumn 2019 the earliest.

  • Second Quarter 2016 Investor Letter
    Second Quarter 2016 Investor Letter Portfolio Comments The second quarter was characterized by weakening economic conditions, easier monetary stances by central banks and rising commodity prices. Thus, our natural resource holdings outperformed, especially gold miners. Our long-term Treasury positions benefitted from slowing economic growth, and our defensive large-cap US stocks performed better than US stock indices. All-in-all, the portfolios performed well, with our small hedge positions the only categorical underperformer. We anticipated uncertainty during the quarter, so the effects of the Brexit vote were positive for our portfolios, especially our short euro positions. Second Quarter Market Conditions In April, crude oil was the big winner for the month, with West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude rising 20% to end the month at $45.92. Equity markets, however, decoupled from the crude markets, failing to rise appreciably. US equity markets started April slowly, rose during the middle of the month, but a late month swoon took equity indices back toward unchanged, leaving only small gains. The S&P 500 was up just 0.39%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained just over 0.50%, while the Nasdaq Composite fell almost 2%, led down by earnings disappointments in a number of companies, most notably Apple and Microsoft. The Energy, Materials, Financials and Healthcare sectors had good gains in April, while Technology, Utilities and Telecoms were down the most. European stocks outpaced US stocks, with the European Stoxx 600 up 1.2% for the month. In other markets, gold was a big winner during the month, rising 4.5% and ending at 1,289.20/oz, while silver gained 15.4% to end April at $17.89/oz; mining stocks were also up strongly.

  • Technically Official: Stock Market Set to Rise
    Technically Official: Stock Market Set To Rise Oct 27, 2020 By Peter Switzer, Switzer Report It’s technically official: stock market is set to rise! “I’ve seen a vision of the future…” and it’s very positive for stocks. Now this isn’t my vision, and, best of all, it’s supplied by a man known for his realistic views on the subject of the economy and markets. Percy Allan was a former New South Wales Treasury boss and put together an initiative that we supported called Market Timing. Regrettably, not enough investors were into getting insights when a market would crash or zoom off! That said, critics of market timing indicator watchers could ask: “Did they see this Coronavirus crash coming?” The cynic has a case with this one, as the virus-created pandemic and recession was from the furthest imaginable left-field ever! However, the Citi Bear Market checklist, which I watch closely, shows two important things that critics of market timing should remember. First, on the list of indicators that Citi’s smart market team watches, it doesn’t have anything like “pandemic threat” that has been an issue for markets in the past. Second, before the recent stock market crash, only four out of 18 indicators screamed get out of stocks. Before the dotcom crash, it was 17.5/18. And before the GFC, it was 13/18. And with the latter case, the debt ratings agencies didn’t tell us about their false rating on the exotic investment products (called CDOs), which rattled financial markets into a death spiral, taking stocks down 50%! If they did tell us the truth, that number might have been 15 out of 18, and the cautious market-timer might have gone to cash or at least defensive.

  • Forecasting of Security Prices Using Relative Strength Index Method Dr
    Forecasting of Security Prices Using Relative Strength Index Method Dr. Rama Naik M* *Lecturer, Department of Hunanities JNTUA College of Engineering, Ananthapur(A.P) ABSTRACT The relative strength index (RSI) is a technical indicator used in the analysis of financial markets. It is intended to chart the current and historical strength or weakness of a stock or market based on the closing prices of a recent trading period. The indicator should not be confused with relative strength. The RSI is classified as a momentum oscillator, measuring the velocity and magnitude of directional price movements. Momentum is the rate of the rise or fall in price. The RSI computes momentum as the ratio of higher closes to lower closes: stocks which have had more or stronger positive changes have a higher RSI than stocks which have had more or stronger negative changes. The RSI is most typically used on a 14 day timeframe, measured on a scale from 0 to 100, with high and low levels marked at 70 and 30, respectively. Shorter or longer timeframes are used for alternately shorter or longer outlooks. More extreme high and low levels—80 and 20, or 90 and 10—occur less frequently but indicate stronger momentum. If the RSI is 70 or greater, then the instrument is assumed to be overbought (a situation in which prices have risen more than market expectations). An RSI of 30 or less is taken as a signal that the instrument may be oversold (a situation in which prices have fallen more than the market expectations). INTRODUCTION: Security analysis is the analysis of traceable financial instruments called securities.
