Big selloff today . For Sure


gotta love the timing of that post.

Nothing fundamentally has changed, but that was a huge intraday rally from Powell's statement that was already known information. Really incredible actually.

We'll see how much carry through happens with every trader eyeing S&P's long-term resistance lines coming up between 4080-4010, which the index is essentially at after it blew its load today.

Fundamentals are on the back burner until further notice.

Powell is playing this kind of brilliant. CPI comes in light, he can go dove and say I was prepared to go further but data is guiding us. If CPI comes in higher than expected, he basically just stays on the same course and says "I was telling you guys ALL ALONG". And they managed to not break anything.


Exactly, he can change his tone at any point.

We don't know if anything will break, but he's driving us towards stagflation.

The answer to the question is when the SPR is empty and OPEC cuts production. Oil will moon to 130+ and inflation ramps back up

Maybe, but this board said the SPR releases wouldn’t do anything and oil was going to $200, and it’s sitting at $80. I too would have been wrong on this big of a drop, but oil has defied the odds for 6+ months now.

Core PCE came in still high and not showing any significant dropoff.

Powell shared this slide yesterday and admitted the rate hikes haven't changed inflation's course. It's been sideways all year. Let's get ready to welcome stagflation next year.

Sorry for the quality. It was a screen grab from video.


Looking more into what happened yesterday, the market started rallying before Powell even spoke a word

I’m not sure how much change you can really expect when the effective FFR was 1.6% 125 days ago. It’s only been restrictive for two months, and our data that tracks the economy is at least 1-month behind that.

This seems like the economic equivalent of firing Brian Kelly after the FSU loss.

No, I agree and that's my point on the S&P pricing is way too optimistic again.

It's still unknown the effects the higher rates will have and if the terminal rate will need to be higher than thought due to possibly sticky inflation in the 5-6-7% range meanwhile unemployment increases due to lower corporate earnings.

Wall Street may take stocks a bit higher, but the move is nearly over. Looking forward to the fade and turn lower on the indexes.

Indexes have given up all gains during the fake Powell pump. If you are one to analyze charts, the prices are near breaking support lines from the November CPI print. If it breaks down, there is a big gap to fill from that event.

If indexes become oversold before next week's CPI and FOMC, it may be more probable to pump on next week's news, but it will be short-lived since January is around the corner.

Saw an article today saying that the final capitulation will come mid year 2023. (Panic sell off)
I don’t necessarily agree that we will have a panic sell off but I do think we will hit a new low next year.

Agree I think we go back down under 3500 early '23. There are really no near term catalysts I can think of.

I'm not selling what I'm holding but I'll probably start building up some more cash.

I’ve been bearish on longer dated rates but they’ve fallen too far too fast IMO. There is substantial downside risks 2+ year rates IMO. I think we see 4% on the 10y before we see 3%.

For sure too much to fast, but 10yr went from what? 4+% to 3.4% in one month since CPI for October. Dec 13 November CPI; if it were to say, surprise to the downside, 3% doesn't seem that far. If it shows a slower than expected decline, you are definitely right. The markets are in the process of blowing it's load realizing 9% inflation is over; the markets haven't yet realized that getting from 4-5% to 2% will require unemployment to go up unless we magically bring back productivity and that is not happening. I'm playing for a light CPI and I'm going to unload alot of these calls if that happens.

10y went from 4.3% to 3.4% in a month.

I think most of the money on those calls has been made, but good luck.

I have 4 TLT call positions, the ones I bought in sept are up like 6% and 5% now after being down huge, had me sweating. The ones I bought last week are up 70% and 20% so yea, I feel uneasy with this much green these days, you're probably right. Shoulda took some profits yesterday, will probably be how I feel a week from now.

Altho jobless claims today
