Strong interest in bonds - bias reaches all-time high!

The underlying interest in bonds remains strong. For the U.S. in particular, the bias is developing diametrically to the positioning pattern. In terms of investor behavior, there are therefore clear opportunities. Basic strategic confidence is also rising in gold and bitcoins. This conviction is lacking in equities. Rather, the pessimistic sentiment from 2 weeks ago is still having an effect, the short squeeze that was unleashed is still in full swing. A vola signal is pending at the end.

Further results

• Equities: Short squeeze still running
• Gold: Solid bias development

Short-covering underway

After the sentiment signal of the previous week, the price upswing in equities has put the bears under pressure and already forced large parts of them to give up. A good part of the performance potential has been worked off, but not all of it. There are new, interesting signals to report for silver and crude oil.

Further results

• Bonds: Continued high underlying confidence
• Crude oil: Bias upswing

Vola is back - fears too

The Vola is back! Via the high neutrality, we have recently received the hint that the price volatility will increase in the summer. This process has now begun: the neutral camp is starting to take sides. Very impulsively, the sentiment sags downwards. A tactical recovery is thus in the offing. However, the all-clear cannot be given yet. A new buying reflex is not indicated by the bias. The Super Neutrality Index also still offers considerable room to the downside.

Further results

• Bonds: Z-score in TD index at almost -3!
• Gold: Bias goes into advance
• sentix economic index: Monday, 10th July at 10:30 CEST

More than a summer lull

Concerns about the further development of the global economy have probably not diminished with the latest values of the sentix business cycle indices. For in the "Global Aggregate Index" we note the fifth decline in a row. The Eurozone is certainly making a particular contribution to this. At -22.5 points, the overall index for the Eurozone has fallen to its lowest level since November 2022. The values for Germany, the most important econ-omy in the Eurozone, can only be described as "dramatically bad". However, the "Asia ex Japan" region also con-tributes significantly to the weak global picture, as the overall index here also falls for the fifth time in a row.
