Credit Trumps Stocks For 4th Day In A Row
From the open last Thursday, high-yield bonds (as priced by the HYG ETF) are down notably while stocks are in ignore any taper news mode. The last 4 days have seen a very similar pattern play out where stocks jump exuberantly at the open, ride through POMO and the EU close, and then drop back in hurry to credit's less sanguine view of the world. It seems each and every ramp in the S&P away from credit stalls at the 50DMA and today was no different.
Credit seems to be a little less excited than stocks... (blue - stocks, red - credit spreads, green - HYG)
and stocks just can't break that 50DMA...

I dunno, for all those little dips, it's still higher every day.
And with this post out there now, how long before the 50DMA is soundly trounced? Ben just got off the phone with Kevin ... cleared for take off!
Higher EVERY day? Well depending on what timeline youre looking at....wasn't the DOW recently about 500 points higher?
These markets are weak as anything. I am holding my IWM puts until Friday.
Wednesday is a half day. Thursday is closed. Investors positioning themselves for a major sell-off coming soon.
well then...it sounds like credit needs a "catch up" provision. Mr. Chairman! Start Printing! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2i08yPjOfGE
WTI to break $100 in a few seconds.
WTI "market" is a fucking manipulated joke.
"What hath Ben wrought?"
DEflation.
exactly, 4 days, not getting above the 50 day moving avg, and no drop. the market is a joke,
But the past 4 days you can also see it's a short covering rally, those are seen when the clos of the day is the close, but stocks are up the next day for multiple days.
Did anyone else notice that boy with his finger in the dam?
So many jokes possible, will not even try
Anyone else watch, "The Company Men?"

To be continued in July.
No back above 50 dma for you! For year!
It's bedazzling to think S&P only 3.4% from all-time highs. Yep, the safeest and most secure asset class, yep!
Fuck you bernanke and Miners...looks like I'll be skipping the Fourth at the in-laws this year..."thanks for the miners moron" from the 11 year old prodigy nephew whose name I never remember isn't my idea of freedom. i'd rather hear it from the wife the rest of the year than explain sentiment indicators again.
Can't believe I bought ABX for 50 and sold for 53 not so long ago.
Just when you think ABX and SLW can't possibly go lower, they do.
Mish's butt must be hurtin' about now.
Mish is a fucking jerk-off, ignorant scumbag seeking pity in the worst way. Sorry about that but he is fucking arrogant, rude and a moron! Ok, done.
good call.
When miners were #1 etf 3Q 2012 I thought I officially figured out the markets at long last. Looking back, of course, every sign said short. Even now, they look like death. Maybe they're all going out of business. I'm buying FB.
utilities. MANY and varied...if trading is your wont.
You were not alone on that idea. To keep watching shit roll down to the bottom (in some cases likely zero) has been stunning to say the least.
Yeah Mish - He puts out all this sorrow for his dying then dead wife (collects donations) and suddenly and quite quickly finds the love of his life on a dating website. Really? Keep that shit to yourself that fucking prick!
No reason to expect the ability to buy webspace to be an indicator of sanity; near as I can tell, the guy is a true sociopath.
Agreed.
