May 21 Friday - Market Summary:

Stocks SPY=, Bond TLT+0.43%, EEM-1%,Small IWM+0.3%,SpecTech ARKK-0.7%.


Existing Home sales slipped -2.7% m/m to 5.85m (expected 6.09m; ) from an unrevised 6.01m in March). January-April was +20% from a depressed 2020.

The key takeaway: supply of existing homes for sale remains near all-time lows. HPI increases beyond income gains rates, creates affordability pressures for prospective (mainly first-time) buyers. Fed tapering talk likely increases at Jackson Hole this weekend (the main annual Fed policy debate symposium).


The Fed conducted its largest overnight Reverse RePurchase operation (daiily, 13ET) in 4years today (RRP), with $369B take-up (also $351B on Thursday, and $294B on Wednesday). This drains cash, to prevent rates dropping below target. (PBOC uses RP/RRP tool to manage daily CN liquidty, at 21ET, before HK open). The Biden admin cut its infrastructure spending proposal to $1.7T from $2.2T.


Financials XLF+1% led the continuing rotation from growth(tech) to value.

AAPL-1.5% Apple's CEO testified in a legal battle with Epic Games over fees.

Nvidia NVDA+3% announced 4-1 stock split; chips held big weekly gains.

F+7% Ford booms on new EV version of its F150 truck, that Biden endorsed.


Main busy half of Quarterly earnings season, ends next Thursday May 27.

May 12 Wednesday: Market Summary:

Stocks SPY-2%, Bonds TLT-1%, Emerging Mkt EEM-2.8%, Smallcap IWM-3.2%.


Shock weak CPI (0.8%, e0.2) unplugged all-asset-class liquidation, on Tax day.

That is 5% annualised. Main drivers: used car prices, airfares, rent. Core +3%YoY.

Fear is, persistent inflation forces Fed to slow QE (like UK CA AU NO already).

"Transitory" likely means until~Sept: UI benefits, and summer reopen, both end.

10year Breakevens are 2.5% (inflation expectations from 10yr TIPS). 30yr BE: 3%.

Firm $41B 10year bond auction, halted Bonds' rout; main 30year auction tmro.


SPY nears 50Day Moving Average. Only 5% off highs. 200DayMA is 10% lower.

P/E ratios, especially Cyclically Adjusted CAPEs, are still near record ATHs.

GeoPol risks: Middle East war potential: escalating Israeli<>Palestinian attacks.


Biggest 1year bubble: DOGEcoin ballooned 500x! to $100B, with no tech merit.

DOGE-23% BTC-17% (<50k A/H: TSLA-5% won't accept BTC for cars; but won't sell it's BTC: seems self-harming) ETH-13%; COIN-6% RIOT-11% MARA-12% SI-5%>+14%AH: to be exclusive issuer of FB's new planned Diem stablecoin. SQ-7%.

JOLTs: 8.1m jobs (e7.5m). Flat $58B 3year bond auction. Druckenmiller WSJ OpEd: low rates: beware inflation. Former NY Fed head Dudley, believes Fed will have to raise rates, more than expected. Big US CPI Inflation data Weds.

(A $50B MktCap, 7th biggest, new Crypto began today: ICP Internet Computer. This may move towards breaking the dominance of any one cyptocurrency. Most have asymptotically limited supply. But if a stream of ever better new coins is seen, investors may realize there is effectively infinite oversupply overall.

If bubble delusions finally melt in crypto, the biggest craziest bull market ever, this likely impacts futuristic-value tech stocks too: overlapping ownership.

Periphery markets, can be froth indicators (for core markets): Eg Crypto/NFTs, SPACs, ARKK, meme stocks; thin key comods like lumber, palladium, biofuels)

May 10 Monday: Market Summary:

Stocks SPY-1%, Bonds TLT-1%, Emerging Mkt EEM-1.8%, Small IWM-2.5%.


Copper-0.5%, was +3%. Lumber-3% limit, briefly was +3%, after weeks of mostly +3% limit-up days. (Very thin market, even more due to frequent limits at these elevated prices; it's main price action is mostly soon after 9ET regular day open).

Iron Ore+3%, also reversed sharply lower from early +8% from Asian time.


Oil= was flat, despite Colonial Pipeline in emergency shutdown (due to a RU connected cyber attack by "Darkside", who apologised: they want more subtle big ransom op's). It is #1 in US, supplying nearly half of East coast oil. XLE=, XLF=.


Bonds tried a bounce, but sank to new lows, hurting Techs QQQ-2.7% (Nasdaq NDX100 closely tracks XLK Tech sector; distant cash flow value falls with bonds).


Musk hosting SNL Sat. Nite Live, was a meme sentiment climax, as we suggested here: DOGE-28%, BTC-5%; ETH+13%; COIN+11% (hot ETH, DOGE; RobinHood outage, Binance withdrawal curb); RIOT-18%, MARA-11%, SI-6%. SQ-7% TSLA-6%.


Defensives stayed firm: Utilites XLU+1%, Property XLRE+0.5%, Staples XLP +0.7%.


Tonight: CN census data (decennial; delayed; births fall); AU annual gov't budget.

May 5 Wednesday: Market Summary:

Stocks SPY+0.2%, Bonds TLT+0.2%, Emerging Mkt EEM+0.5%, Small IWM-0.4%.


Weak ADP jobs (a sign for Friday's NFP Jobs) and ISM Services hit techs, but cyclicals keep rising: Materials XLB+1.3%, Financials XLF+0.2%. US Quarterly Treasury Refunding announcement (all bond auction sizes) came in as expected.


Rotating hits on market sectors in sequence, often dent overall assets very little.


Richly valued Techs are slipping back, despite blowout earnings: rate rises hurt.


VNQ-1.5% REITs: rate-proxy sectors weak, on rate rise fears, via Yellen.


Biotech IBB-1.3%: US backs vax IP waiver. Big disincentive, and key tech loss.


Dow DIA+0.2% made new highs again. FTSE+1.5% similarly benefits more from a higher cylical weighting (and early UK reopen, on May 17.) Thursday's UK regional elections may help Scottish independence parties; also BoE decision.


A G7 statement urged China (CN) to follow it's global agreements (TW/WHO; trade practices; Uighurs). CN's NDRC has suspended trade dialogues with AU.


FB-1%: Facebook's independent oversight board kept up the Trump ban, for inciting violence with disinfo; and demanded clear rules.


Trump has just set up his website, for a 2024 Presidential run.


LYFT-6% beat but gig workers reclassifed as employees: hit DASH-5%, UBER too.


Peleton PTON-14%: treadmill recall, after a child's fatal accident, and reopening.


CME-1% will close all floor pits, except STIR Eurodollar options.


HNST+44%: $2B MktCap IPO of Jessica Alba's baby/beauty Honest Company.


BTC+4%, ETH+8%: COIN-3%, RIOT-3%, MARA-1%, SI+2%. SQ+2%. TSLA=.


DOGEcoin+16% (#4 Crypto) seems the biggest meme-bubble ever: a crazy-spec indicator. Musk (pumps DOGE) hosting SNL this weekend, may lead to a climax.


A PolkaDOT (#7 Crypto) Closed End Fund is likely to be listing soon.


Earnings Movers: GM+4%. HLT-4%. CNHI+4%. ALB+3%. SMG+6%. FMC+2%. TT+2%. RUN-4%. NYT-4%. RDFN-5%. SPR-5%. PSN-4%. BBU+7%. DNB-5%. HAYW+24% Hayward pool equipment. Office Depot ODP+9%, also spinoff.

May 4 Tuesday: Market Summary:

S&P SPY-0.7%, Bonds TLT+0.7%, Smallcaps IWM-1.2%, EEM-1.1% EMs weak.


CN, JP on holiday. Infineon IFX-6% (missed earnings, on auto chip shortages) led DAX-3%; also dragged by general China/Taiwan fears. Greens' candidate for Chancellor, Baerbock, has the best ratings for replacing Merkel. This means tougher DE responses to CN on human rights, which can hurt DE supply chains.


US Tech XLK-1.8%: AAPL-3.5% on a MS note. But supercap Dow DIA= climaxed and bounced all 1% early loss, after Yellen's suggestion (softened later) that small rate hikes could tame inflation: as Financials XLF+0.8% benefit from rate rises.


AMZN-2%: Amazon's streaming video, with ads, now reaches 120m viewers.


Microsoft MSFT-2%: Bill and Melinda Gates announce a divorce. No preNup.


SDC-19%: SmileDirect (braces) disclosed a cybersecurity attack weeks ago.


BTC-6%, ETH-1% ($3,500 high, on Fintech/ Smart Contract / NFT edges); SQ-5%, COIN-5%, RIOT-6%. TSLA-2% (still the core meme-linked boom stock).


Oil+3%, yet Energy sector stocks flat XLE=. Grains boom on CN demand, BZ drought, Biden's biofuel. Lumber has hit limit up most days in the recent boom.
