Emerging markets may indeed be approaching an opportune moment: Sevens Report Analysts Quoted in Investing.com

Are emerging markets finally a buy?

As per analysts at Sevens Report, emerging markets may indeed be approaching an opportune moment for investors to re-enter. Sevens Report analysts point out that emerging markets are widely “hated,” evidenced by the dismal equity flows into these regions. 

The Sevens Report outlines several investment vehicles, including ETFs that offer diversified exposure to these markets.

The Vanguard FTSE Emerging Markets ETF (NYSE:VWO), for instance, provides broad-based, low-cost exposure, while the WisdomTree Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund (NYSE:DEM) focuses on income-generating assets within emerging markets.

Sevens Report’s Tom Essaye also sees technical indicators flashing red

Sevens Report’s Tom Essaye also sees technical indicators flashing red: Sevens Report Editor, Tom Essaye, Quoted in Barron’s

The Stock Market Is Rising, but So Are the Risks. What to Do Now.

Sevens Report’s Tom Essaye also sees technical indicators flashing red. The Relative Strength Index, or RSI, a momentum indicator used to identify overbought or oversold conditions, has been diverging from the S&P 500 for about six months, turning lower even as the index keeps pushing higher.

“That is a concern because it is a bearish divergence that we have repeatedly seen when lasting market tops are being established, including the early 2022 highs,” Essaye writes. “This same divergence occurred before the market peaks in 2000, 2007, and even the short-lived bear market of 2020. Bottom line, the divergence between the outright price action of the S&P 500 (hitting higher highs) and its weekly RSI indicator (establishing lower highs) is a concerning technical dynamic that warrants attention as it suggests the risks of a more pronounced pullback in the stock market is statistically elevated right now.”

I think the Fed will be a bigger influence over markets between now and year-end: Tom Essaye Interviewed on BNN Bloomberg

S&P’s $8 Trillion Rally Will Be Tested by Tricky Earnings Season

“Unless earnings are a major disappointment, I think the Fed will be a bigger influence over markets between now and year-end simply because earnings have been pretty consistent,” said Tom Essaye, founder and president of Sevens Report Research. “Investors expect that to continue.”

The port strike could disrupt the data

The port strike could disrupt the data: Tom Essaye Quoted in Forbes

Could Dock Worker Strike Spike Inflation? Experts Are Split.

Sevens Report analyst Tom Essaye wrote Tuesday to clients any strike-related inflation uptick is ultimately just a “temporary disruption” and shouldn’t impact the view of the broader inflation picture.

“The port strike could disrupt the data, essentially creating a smoke screen for the Fed when trying to stick the soft landing,” wrote Essaye.

Futures contracts tied to the index are telling a different story

Futures contracts tied to the index are telling a different story: Tom Essaye Quoted in Market Watch

Why Wall Street’s ‘fear gauge’ could spike again around the election

But futures contracts tied to the index are telling a different story, and it’s one worth paying attention to, according to Tom Essaye, founder of Sevens Report Research.

The October VIX contract is trading at a premium to the November contract, an unusual development known to futures traders as “backwardation.” Typically, the VIX futures curve exhibits a smooth upward slope. But for most of this year, there has been a kink along this part of the curve.

According to Essaye, the inversion is notable not so much for its degree — the October contract was just 0.3 points above its September sibling as of early Thursday — but for its staying power. This segment of the curve has been in backwardation since the October contract started trading in February.

Rate-cut expectations played a major role in the stock market rebound: Sevens Report Co-Editor Tyler Richey Quoted in S&P Global

Stocks surge to all-time highs; market questions if Fed cuts can sustain rally

“Rate-cut expectations played a major role in the stock market rebound off the early August pullback, but only because the increasingly dovish Fed policy expectations for sooner-and-deeper rate cuts were accompanied by encouraging economic data that helped ease the suddenly urgent fears of an imminent recession in the wake of the July jobs report,” said Tyler Richey, a co-editor with Sevens Report Research.

Rate cut expectations will weigh heavily on the stock market through the end of 2024, primarily as they relate to the outlook for economic growth, said Richey with Sevens Report Research.

“Soft landings are historically elusive, and the Fed has notably never pulled one off after a deep and prolonged yield curve inversion like we have seen in the Treasury market since the summer of 2022,” he said. “Using history as a guide, we are in a late cycle environment and very likely closer to seeing a lasting market top established than a new leg higher in a sustainable bull market.”

Tyler Richey of the Sevens Report highlights a market breadth concern

Tyler Richey of the Sevens Report highlights a market breadth concern and is quoted in MarketWatch

A technical concern suggests upside momentum is fading

Tyler Richey of the Sevens Report highlights a market breadth concern: there are more stocks trading below their 200-day average than their 50-day average.

“In simple terms, a situation where there are more stocks below their 200-day MA than their 50-day is a bearish one as in a healthy market environment, there should consistently be more stocks above their 200-day MAs than 50-day MAs,” Richey says. Another concern is the NYSE advance-decline line declined last week even though the S&P 500 hit record highs.

The threat of significant earnings reports or major economic releases

The threat of significant earnings reports or major economic releases: Sevens Report Analysts Quoted in Investing.com

What the Fed decision means for markets, beyond the near term

Without the threat of significant earnings reports or major economic releases, investors appear to be operating in an environment that is “1) easing Fed, 2) slowing but ‘OK’ economic data, and 3) generally solid earnings,” Sevens Report said in a recent note.

According to the Sevens Report, if the rate cuts are timely, they could lead to falling yields, strong earnings growth, and positive economic tailwinds. This would likely result in continued upward momentum for stocks, with the potential for the S&P 500 to hit 6,000.

“I say that confidently because the Fed cutting in time would create this macroeconomic outcome: 1) Falling yields, 2) Continued very strong earnings growth, 3) Positive economic tailwinds, 4) The prominent existence of the Fed put and 5) Expectations of accelerating growth in the future,” President of Sevens Report wrote in the note.
