An Economic Renaissance Emerges – Look Out Below

Our researchers believe the US stock market has potentially ended the “relief rally” phase where the US Fed stimulus pushed prices off the recent lows and upward towards key Fibonacci retracement levels and will soon engage in a new price exploration phase.  We believe this new phase will attempt to properly value the “solvency” question that has become one of the top discussions for our researchers.

The Solvency question equates to this simple issue... How can individuals, companies, states, and other entities continue to operate with greatly reduced income/revenues, moderately high debts, and liabilities throughout a process of an extended shutdown?  Certainly, the option of adding more debt to ease the short term pain of lost revenues may be a solution, but we believe this issue is much bigger than these traditional short term solutions. We believe the COVID-19 virus event is presenting a shift in traditional thinking for many economists, individuals, and enterprises.

That shift may be the beginning of a transition away from 19th-century economic thinking/operations and into a more effective transitional process that may take 10+ years to completely rebuild the global economy into a 21st-century powerhouse.  This process requires the destruction of old, faulty, and ineffective processes that have become a massive liability for individuals, companies, states, and other entities as well as an “awakening” moment for many technical investors. This is not the same market we experienced over the past 40+ years.

This transition may force states, local governments, corporations and thousands of other enterprises to rethink how they run their accounting as well as what a recovery process really looks like.  We believe it certainly does not include the traditional liabilities, asset valuation levels, and ongoing enterprise-level engagement we experienced over the past 25+ years.  Things will change because revenue/income, as well as future economic expectations, must be altered to address the post-COVID-19 world. We believe the next phase of the markets will be a revaluation phase that will likely include a “double-dip” bottom set up – as we've been predicting for over 8+ weeks.

Dow Jones E-Mini Futures Daily Chart

This Dow Jones E-Mini Futures Daily chart suggests the critical Fibonacci level, near $23,100, is a key price support level for the US stock market.  Once this level is breached, we believe a new downward price trend will set up quickly and result in a moderately deep downside price move that may retest recent lows near $18,000.

Transportation Index Daily Chart

This Daily Transportation Index chart highlights another critical price support level near 7960 which has already been breached.  We believe the Transportation Index and the Mid/Small Cap US stock market indexes have illustrated a very clear breakdown in prices over the past 14+ days and we believe the broader US stock market is setting up for another downside price collapse as the reality of the future global economic recovery sets in.

Concluding Thoughts

As we've suggested, we believe the process of the post-COVID-19 recovery will be very eventful.  We continue to believe the process of the recovery will likely result in a difficult and painful process of shedding economic liabilities as revenues/income continue to falter for state and local governments as well as individuals and corporations.  We believe the process that will likely unfold over the next 24+ months will be one where taking on more debt is an unwise solution given the foundational shift that is likely taking place within the global markets. 

Emerging markets may be one of the first segments of the global markets to push this shift into momentum.  Eventually, we believe, the broader global market will follow this shift and begin to realize that we can't simply print money to solve these economic issues.  A true 21st century economic Renaissance is likely to take place in the future.  We believe this is the only real solution given the policies and processes that have taken place over the past 20+ years.
