Swing Trade Ideas – March 26, 2021
Market View
World markets are positive with USA mixed, Japan green, Europe green, Hong Kong green, China green and Asia green, Yield curve is steepening sharply which is positive for the financials and small caps. US dollar is slightly positive which is neutral but commodity currencies are up signaling risk-off. USA markets are setup for the rotation/inflation trade with banks, materials, energy leading and tech lagging. News that banks can increase dividends and do buybacks post June is lifting bank stocks. Steeper curve is weighing on the FAANGMT stocks and hence the Nasdaq. Russell2000 is leading due to the strength in financials and energy stocks. S&P500 is at a zero gamma level which makes it susceptible to large moves. 3900 is a key support level and 3950 resistance. Since Tues SPX has been making lower highs and lower lows which is a short term down trend. Today one should watch the financials and the FAANGMT. For the S&P to move higher, both sectors need to move up together. China stocks are dropping premarket, perhaps due to tensions between Taiwan and China
