Why Market Timing Is A Must


Last week indices rallied despite rising interest rates across the entire debt spectrum. That is bullish and signals that higher interest rates are "baked-in" now, and more importantly, the Fed is limited as to how far they could possibly raise short-term rates.  Currently the market estimates that limit ("terminal rate") to be around 5.5% and that is also baked into equity markets.


SGS Market Timer

As of the close of last Friday (3/3), the value of SGS was calculated to be +82.  The status of SGS changed from SHORT to LONG.
