Will the Magnificent 7 Let It Go?
Hey Market Timer!
The next full length newsletter will be released on Friday July 12th.
Have You Heard the News?
The government said the U.S. economy added a solid 206,000 jobs in June in its nonfarm payrolls report early on Friday. That was more than analysts expected but below May's downwardly revised tally of 218,000.
The unemployment rate slightly increased to 4.1%, a significant rise from the 3.6% recorded a year ago. This shift will likely fuel the anticipation that the Federal Reserve might soon consider a rate cut. The market is currently pricing in a more than 75% chance of the Fed reducing its benchmark lending rate by a quarter point at its September meeting, as per the CME FedWatch Tool.
Biden dismisses questions about his age and health in ABC interview, says he is staying in 2024 race.
Equities in China and India are being touted as potential Asian outperformers in the year's second half as investors flock to emerging-market themes. . .

Trend Channels
Trend channels are an important element of technical analysis.
The upper and lower trendlines of the channels represent resistance and support.
These resistance support levels often work but not always. Minor trendline overthrows are acceptable.
Significant breaks of the trendlines suggest an acceleration of the trend or confirmations of trend reversals.
The chart below shows two channels for NDX, blue and gray.
I do not expect NDX to significantly exceed the upper blue trendline; it is a formidable resistance.
The break of the lower gay trendline would be the first indication of an MT trend reversal.
The break of the lower blue trendline would be more significant.
In addition to these levels, one should consider Mas, the Fibonacci levels, and the price support level for indications of trend reversal.

Sentiment
There are many sentiment and valuation indicators at multi-decade extremes.
The chart below (courtesy of SentimenTrader) shows unprecedented long positioning of small speculators (retail), exceeding anything seen in the last 35 years.
This cannot last much longer, IMO. And a potential reversal may be painful for retail traders/investors. When will that reversal happen? I think soon, but we need to check with what Magnificent 7 think.
For your full benefit, please follow me on X. Many premium subscribers do.
Below is my post on X from this weekend about the S&P500 Book Value. Its Book Value reached the 2000 level. Subsequently, the S&P 500 underwent a significant bear market.
Will the history repeat? Likely. When is a reversal going to happen? Looks like it depends on Magnificent 7 to a great extent.
Trust but verify. Here is the chart.
