THE CYCLICAL v DEFENSIVE ROTATION 

03-06-25

We updated the chart above which we highlighted previously (Last Weeks Chart Link) to shown how quickly the markets have rotated to Defensives versus Cyclicals.


RSI suggests the bottom is in, Sentiment says maybe not yet though the average stock is off 30% from highs. The vol Term structures (chart right) suggest we may initially get a bounce but the lows are likely to be retested before heading higher. The markets are generally oversold and the all-important CTA community has de-risked, but certain aspects of sentiment in general, and gross leverage among hedge funds in particular, make the overall tactical backdrop messy and absolutely not a clear-cut signal.

MA-CHS-03-06-25-MARCH-Roaring-20s-or-Great-Depression-2 image

JPM's head trader Elan Luger:

"the bottom line for me: yes we are technically oversold. Yes we are very close to a bounce (I like Financials specifically alts best for a long trade + Mag 7 + Utilities)…but we are in a new regime that warrants a sell rally mentality more than a buy dip mentality" 


CHART RIGHT:

The gap between strategists' SPX target and SPX is very wide. Market too bearish, or strategists too bullish?


Maybe the gap shrinks, from both "sides"...

MA-CHS-03-06-25-MARCH-Roaring-20s-or-Great-Depression-2 image

IT WAS ANOTHER TUMULTUOUS WEEK!!


A 10% correction in 20 days, the 5th fastest correction in the last 75 years (fastest ever was 8 days during the onset of Covid – 2/27/20)


THE TRIGGERING SEQUENCE


  1. VALUATIONS: Concern with Mag-7 sustaining rate of sales growth and historic level of margins
  2. ROTATION: Rotation begins to S&P 500 493 and cheaper Euro and European bank stocks.
  3. DOLLAR WEAKNESS: Weakening USD with falling US stocks forces European to chase DAX & Military Build up stocks
  4. GROWTH: US Economic growth becomes an increasing concern primarily on the worry of Tariffs and Trade Wars.
  5. RECESSION: A late 2025 US Recession increasing;y on investors radar


The Prediction Markets (chart above right) were early and highly accurate in predicting a Trump victory. They are rapidly seeing the betting increase for a Recession ahead!


GROWTH => STAGFLATION => RECESSION


THIS IS NOT THE START OF A BEAR MARKET FOR US STOCKS

STILL MOST LIKELY ONLY A INTERMEDIATE DEGREE "WXYXZ" CORRECTION


More pain may be in stocks (after a bounce) as the current “down-in-yields/down-in-stocks” move is ominous, and very 2000, 2002, 2008. Buy SPX @ ~5300 in late Spring


bfmE563_0 image

REASONS TO CONTINUE TO BE FEARFUL:

  1. Growth Concerns (payrolls + ISM manuf.. follows weak confidence readings)
  2. Tariff Fatigue magnified by thematic re-pricing in AI
  3. Global Complexity (Ger & Fra Yields breaking out + China higher again on JD, BABA QwQ-32B AI Model)
  4. Technicals Weak (SPX flirting with 200dma 5732, counterbalanced by most major indices & single stock bellwethers approaching technically "oversold" levels)
  5. Systematic Supply (CTAs have sold almost $60bn of US equity delta in the last week, ~30bn SPX)
  6. Positioning Elevated (HF Gross Leverage rose +1.1 pts this week and sitting in 100th percentile vs past 1-year // Nets remained ~flat and in 47th percentile vs past 1-year)
  7. Liquidity very challenged making new lows
  8. LO Risk Reduction (seen in relative out-performers such as HCare, Utilities, & Semis)
  9. Consumer Woes (think: ANF, FL, ROST, VSCO, Cruise lines, etc.)
  10. Poor Seasonality (bounce set up for 3/14)

***S&P 500 MONTHLY - POST GFC***

CHART NOTES:


  • PRICE - Price has decidedly broken away and below the red parabolic trend that has been in place since the 2008 GFC with one modification (a big one) for Covid.


  • MATASII PROPRIETARY MOMENTUM INDICATOR - Momentum in the bottom panel has broken the major support shown by the black dotted trendline & marked by the red arrow. The next level of support is much further below.

MARKET LAB

Being bearish on US mega-cap tech carries higher risk than being bullish. Timing is crucial — history shows that even correctly calling the 2000 tech bubble peak, but being early led to massive rallies against short positions (13% in one month, 31% in three, and 94% in six). ,While today’s market may not have the same upside, Shorting US tech still requires near-perfect timing.


OBSERVATION -

During the 2000 Dotcom Bubble the market also weakened near the March Quadruple Witch, but didn't fully start breaking down until September.

PATTERN – SPX 

03-08-25

We have noticed similarities to the 2022 correction in markets. Yes, we will have bounces, but sometimes you should zoom out and look at longer term crosses. The post Covid bull started with the 50 day crossing the 100 day in Q32020. The 2022 bear went serious post the negative 50/100 day cross early in the year. The latest bull went aggressive as the positive 50/100 day cross occurred in early 2024. Note the that the negative 50/100 day crossed kicked in this week. (click to enlarge).

MARKET LAB


Consider that the typically high-performing S&P 500 technology sector lagged the broader index in January by the widest margin since 2016. Four of the Magnificent 7 have recently been trading below their 50-day moving averages, another bearish signal for traders. In addition, hedge funds are increasingly reducing gross exposures to these kinds of stocks for the first time in a year, while companies' insiders are selling shares at the highest rate since 2021, raising questions about the company's ability to achieve earnings targets and justify their lofty valuations.

***NVIDIA - NVDA - DAILY***



MATASII CHART NOTES:

  • PRICE - NVDA pushed higher Friday closing at 121.67 up +6.09 (+5.27%), and up compared to last Friday at 112.69


  • DMA - Price has broken well below the 200 DMA and with support being found with the lower trendline of the shorter term support channel.


  • MATASII PROPRIETARY MOMENTUM INDICATOR - The NVDA MATASII Momentum indicator finally found support at its lower support level (black dashed line) and has been rallying from it.


Prior Longer Term Note:


  • At some point, the major unfilled gaps (at much lower levels) must be filled. We anticipate a likely test of the 200 DMA in Q4 2024 or Q1 2025.
  • NVDA therefore may no longer become a Short to Intermediate Long Term hold, but rather a position trading stock, as other competitors enter the space, force margins and the earnings growth rate contracts. 








NOTE RIGHT: Analyst Rating to the right are always too positive and delayed. History suggests the trick is to BEGIN reducing positions as soon as ANYONE changes their rating to Hold or Lower.


5 OUT OF 66 IS A CONCERN

AS GOES NVDA SO GOES THE MAG-7!


AS GOES THE MAG-7 SO GOES THE MARKET!

With a market cap of $3.61tn and nearly as big as the entire DAX and CAC combined, earnings are going to be a big event. To give you a scale for their astonishing earnings trajectory over such a short period of time, at the recent lows in Jan 2023 Nvidia earned $4.4bn over the preceded last 12m. However, today the consensus will see them earn $61.4bn over the last 12 months. By the time we hit 2027, they are expected to earn $118.1bn LTM.


The growth in NVDA’s forward revenues and operating earnings have both been remarkable, as has its ability to maintain a forward profit margin north of 55%. Nvidia’s forward P/E of 32.6 is certainly higher than the S&P 500’s forward earnings multiple of 21.6. But it looks reasonable relative to the company’s expected forward earnings growth of 53.1%.
