NAS100 DAILY CHART -Record high looms above

Scroll below to see reasons to be cautious in a market where stocks remain resilient.

One difference with the NAS100 is that unlike the S&P and DOW, it has yet to set a new record high.

For that to be a risk 20K needs to become upport.

US500 DAILY CHART –  Caution>?

Seems to be more reasons for caution…

–       US elections in just over 4 weeks

–       – Middle East geopolitical risk

–       – Earnings season needs to see strong result to justify lofty valuations

With that said, stocks have been resilient but would need to take out the record high or risk at least some consolidation

Week Ahead

Focus on stocks to set risk on/risk off tone

Geopolitical risk + higher yields after jobs data vs earnings reporting season and support for high valuations

Fed still seen cutting rates in Nov but by 25bps rather than the market fantasy of 50bps

NEW YORK, Oct 4 (Reuters) – A high-stakes corporate earnings season kicks into gear next week, with bullish investors hoping results will justify increasingly rich valuations in a U.S. stock market near record highs.

The case for strong U.S. economic growth got a boost on Friday, after labor market data came in far above expectations. The S&P 500 is up 20% year-to-date and stands near record highs despite recent tumult spurred by rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.

Wall St Week Ahead Investors look to earnings to support record-high stock prices

XAUUSD 4 H0UR CHART: TUG-OF-WAR

XAUUSD has traded within 2622-2685, the latter being the new record high, for 7 days in aa row.

Tug-of-war: Higher US yield vs. simmering Middle East geopolitical risk.

While this consolidation will not last, if you view 2600-2700 as a range, then 2650, currently having a magnetic pulll, will eventually dictate the next move.

If there is a drop off in risk appetite I see the 161.80 area for EurJpy as a viable zone for the market to reestablish some balance.

[SF Monedge]

Put to Call Ratio on Nasdaq stocks is only roughly 2/3 from last Friday’s low so it has more room.  Ratio on S&P is mid-way so has more room.  Prior ratio noted is for Dow stocks.

[SF Monedge]

The Put to Call Ratio in US stocks bounced off of relative lows from last Friday and so the odds are strong that there will be aggressive selling opening next week without something substantial to support it.  An isolated metric but one that holds water usually.  Euro likes happy stocks.  It does not like mean stocks.
