Why Market Timing Is A Must


Alarms are ringing loudly this weekend in the Federal Reserve building in Washington DC as the Fed wonders if the failure of Silicon Valley Bank is the tip of an iceberg of small bank failures across the county.  The Fed's own economics are warning stock and real estate prices could tumble significantly   The Fed is holding an emergency meeting tomorrow. 

At this point, there is a good chance that the Fed announces a 25 BPS rate hike and not a 50 BPS rate hike in the next FOMC meeting on March 22.   Also, the Fed might decide, during their emergency meeting tomorrow, to suspend their QT program or to reduce its size substantially. 


SGS Market Timer

As of the close of last Friday (3/10), the value of SGS was calculated to be -555.  The status of SGS changed from LONG to SHORT.


S&P 500 Support And Resistance Levels

Support and resistance levels for SPX for this week are shown above.  Indices are oversold short-term and there is a good chance that we see a short-covering rally early this week.


My Plan

Per my plan I opened a new long position in SMH last Monday.  Now with SGS turning SHORT, my plan is to close my long positions and open a position in SDS sometime early this week.
