The market collapse was driven by both fundamental and technical factors: Sevens Report Quoted in Investing.com

These are key indicators to watch for signs the pullback is ending

According to Sevens Report, the market collapse was driven by both fundamental and technical factors.

Fundamentally, economic data has finally forced investors to acknowledge the economy’s loss of momentum.

“Namely, that the economy is losing momentum and an economic hard landing, while not yet likely, is possible.”

“This market needs some solid economic data and the sooner, the better, because that will push back on premature recession concerns and remind investors that while growth is slowing, it’s not collapsing,” Sevens Report said in the note.

How much of this excessive yen carry trade has been rung out?: Sevens Report Editor, Tom Essaye, Quoted in Barron’s

Traders Seek Refuge in Bonds Amid Market Volatility

“I think the big question for the market in the short term is how much of this excessive yen carry trade, leveraged long bets, has been rung out by the last couple days, or really the last two weeks,” Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye tells Barron’s. “I think it’s, unfortunately, very hard to tell.”

Market Multiple Table: All About Growth: Start a free trial of The Sevens Report.

What’s in Today’s Report:

  • Market Multiple Table – All About Growth
  • Chart – Semiconductor Stocks Bounce, But Long Term Technicals Deteriorate

Stock futures are tracking global equity markets higher as traders shrug off an earnings miss from AI-proxy SMCI (stock down 14% pre-market) and instead focus on a pullback in the yen and sharp drop in the VIX.

Economically, German Industrial Production rose 1.4% vs. (E) 1.0%, further easing global recession worries.

Today, there is one second-tiered economic report due to be released in the afternoon: Consumer Credit (E: $10.0B) but the data is unlikely to move markets.

There are no Fed officials scheduled to speak today but there is a 10-Yr Treasury Note auction at 1:00 p.m. ET. Auction results that are strong could bolster recession worries while a weak auction could rekindle “higher for longer” policy rate worries.

Finally, earnings season continues to wind down with only a few notable reports today including: DIS ($1.20), CVS ($1.74), LYFT ($0.19).

We started the landing a couple months ago

We started the landing a couple months ago: Sevens Report Editor, Tom Essaye, Quoted in Barron’s

The Market Is Finally Paying Attention to Slowing Growth. That Doesn’t Mean We’re Headed for a Recession.

Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye argues the latest data doesn’t rule out a soft landing, though some market participants had until recently ruled out a hard landing.

“We started the landing a couple months ago,” Essaye says. “It’s no different than when you’re on an actual plane. Sometimes the plane descends more quickly than other times, but that doesn’t mean that you’re crashing.”

Essaye argues summer jobs numbers are generally volatile, so he doesn’t expect the Fed to start panicking. He also notes other economic metrics like retail sales and durable goods, while slowing, are not showing extreme weakness. On the flip side, he thinks a market that had been oblivious to slowing growth could show signs of weakness in the coming weeks.

“The data was not that bad,” Essaye says. “The fact that the S&P 500 is down two and a half percent is more a function of the market’s complacency toward this risk, rather than it is the risk actually becoming substantially greater.”

The main reason the geopolitical tensions have not had a more pronounced impact on the global energy markets

The main reason the geopolitical tensions have not had a more impact on global energy markets: Sevens Report Co-Editor, Tyler Richey, Quoted in Morningstar

Oil prices see 4th straight weekly decline on worries over demand

The main reason the geopolitical tensions have not had a more pronounced impact on the global energy markets since tensions in the Middle East first picked up last fall is that there has not been a meaningful impact on global supply, said Tyler Richey, co-editor of Sevens Report Research.

“And demand risks related to a looming recession are much more significant than the threat to supply that the current geopolitical landscape presents which leaves the fundamental scales tipped in favor of the bears right now,” he said.

“I don’t think the market is really doubting the whole AI story at this point,” Sevens Report Research’s Tom Essaye told Barron’s. “But I do think there are extremely high growth expectations. And if those growth expectations disappoint, even a little bit, then you’ll see some punishment. And that’s really what’s been going on in the earnings season.”

The biggest question facing investors today remains ‘Is It Different This Time?: Sevens Report Editor, Tom Essaye, Quoted in Barron’s

The Stock Market Doesn’t Look Like the Dot-Com Bubble. It’s Something Worse.

No, that’s not the real worry. The S&P 500 is. It smacks of 2007 all over again. From last July until now, the index has traded with an 85% correlation to July 2006 though July 2007, according to Sevens Report’s Tom Essaye.

Essaye went so far as to describe the resemblance of this market to the 2007 market as “concerning to say the least.” And he touched on the uncertainty that investors are facing.

“The biggest question facing investors today remains ‘Is It Different This Time?’” he wrote
