Anyone expecting the June lows to hold may be disappointed. This chart shows that recession associated lows for inflation adjusted stocks occur with or after rate cycle peaks. Perhaps it's different this time? Though I doubt it!

The vertical lines show initial YC inversion. Since equities discount the economy and inversions precede recessions, an inverted curve increases the probability that stocks ultimately end up lower than when the inversion initially took place. Just look at the arrows!

There have been two major trend breaks in US stock performance vs the World since 1992. The third is right at the 104-week (2-year) MA and secular up trendline. An oversold bounce is likely now but stay tuned for what could be a major signal of forthcoming US underperformance.

Here’s a ratio between the VIX and the 10-year yield. When rising, it reflects fear as the VIX is firmer than yield. Green trendline breaks are bullish red bearish. Ratio is caught between 2 lines, so a decisive breakout may signal the direction of the next important market move.

This tech/energy relationship has broken down. Both industries are under regularity pressure. That for tech is likely to harm margins but restrictions on energy will create shortages sending up the price. Note all momentum is bearish. Ergo, the decline in the ratio will extend.

The Gold/bond ratio has broken out and the KST is bullish. The solid arrows show that the ratio usually leads commodities. The ratio’s multi-year high and its reluctance to follow the post 2018 commodity decline argues strongly in favor of higher commodity prices.
