Tame PPI Equals Risk-on

S&P 500 with Nasdaq brought us some more gains with bullish price action, and another reversal of first session half weakness. No beating around the bush, here are my thoughts as regards the PPI and consequences for stocks (the real asset ones are given separately).

Note the show of intraday strength since this was posted early European morning – expect also bond prices to increase later today, and remember how well junk corporate bonds had been doing lately no matter the higher for longer revival. All signs of risk-on environment persisting – no surprise to to my meticulous readers and clients.

S&P 500 and Nasdaq

✕

5,015 support level is unlikely to come into jeopardy today – 5,041 is likely to contain any temporary pullback as S&P 500 is heading for a positive weekly close. Russell 2000 performing very bullishly considering yields – biotech had been one of my picks, and most of the regional banks are doing all right as well, in a clear nod to risk taking and breakout of the two year long base. Specialty retailers and discretionaries in general don‘t favor stock market pullback or recession either.

Gold, Silver and Miners

✕

Gold delivered Thursday‘s upswing, and isn‘t likely to decline today either. The bias is bullish, and silver is pointing to no rates squeeze ahead as well. Same for miners.

Crude Oil

✕

Crude oil is to be weaker today than precious or base metals – precisely because of lower inflation figure. Equities would be the chief beneficiaries rather than real assets.
