Here is another trading Snack.
Ever sense the stock market pushed to it last all-time-high, followed by risk off fears of the pandemic, we’ve only challenged the re trace move bacK to the 61.8 Fib level and now are grinding around.
With zero or close to zero rates in most of the world, money managers who for the most part have only seen for the last 11 years a by the dip strategy, now are managing from the point of stocks are the only real game in town. This kind of mind set only feeds the fire of a grinding market till the next great big head line.
To some degree investors are also looking towards the nation reopening up after the virus appears to be under control from spreading farther. But what will the effects of the nation closing the economy have on future outlooks and business planing?
Most of the virus number that will effect investor short sided views aren’t in the mix yet. Mostly those numbers just started to show up, or in some headlines are the best guesses of our investor gurus in our present times. Buffet one of the greatest investors said the other day, now is not the time to buy! In fact his investment firm has been actively selling and raising cash levels.
So what is the trade?
In my opinion ask yourself what is the driving force in pushing stocks higher over the 61.8 level and then challenge those all-time-highs again? If you can not find a reasonable driver to that possibility, then the higher probability trade is sell the rallies.
