Option & Stocks for L/S positions; corp credit/derivatives; DeMark studies; I trade in time frames of a few wks to a few mths, and occasionally a few years.
Seen Bruce > 100x in last 45yrs, but this was 1 of the best: in my hometown of Milan, w/my brother from another mother, a virtual loop of Bruce feeding on the crowd feeding on Bruce, & Bruce dunking on our POS wanna-be tyrant, corrupt, waste of oxygen, sorry excuse for a president

Ignore the levels bc these r-time indxs use diff methods to calculate spreads. Showing IG/HY spreads to see how much damage been done, & how much needs 2b repaired 2go back to "normal". Of course, having corp bond issuance restart will b the real tell #SPY #QQQ

This is a 3y chart of a LevLoan index. Small/mid size private cos with need to access credit are about to get strangled. Great job #MAGA
#SPY #QQQ

#QQQ touched the 200dma from below and turned south. If this is just a pullback before a break above the 200dma, imho it needs to hold $484ish on a closing basis, or the red trendline in the chart below whichever is higher.
March 26, 2025 at 4:15 PM
Before #QQQ can contemplate recouping the 200dma ($493.81), it has a significant knot of other resistance to cut thru. Credit remains plenty supportive of higher stk prices, but the charts have a lot of damage to repair. #SPY

#GEV CEO saying by end of summer their capacity shud be sold out thru 2028; AI only about 15% of backlog. Above > $400 it might have gotten ahead of itself, but < $300 it's pretty much the definition of GAARP imho.
GAAP EPS Est. ↓

As of yday's close, 53% of #SPY stks were < the 200DMA, and 58% < 50DMA. Below is the 5y history. Top chart is the #SPX
March 11, 2025 at 2:36 PM
Spreads cudn't fight back against the last woosh in stks. IG/HY cash are now +5bps/+21bps. That qualifies as a bad day. But key remains that stks r leading cred rather than the far more worrisom opposite. Red/Green lines r inverted #SPY & #QQQ . White is IG CDX

3-mth #VIX curve in puke mode. Generally from this level (inverted by 6.5pts) we shud b close 2a bounce. Only 2 stabs lower in last 3yrs (since 0DTE gambling became the thing).Caveat: LOTS of #SPY puts OI 4 Wed at 558. If that gives,more -ve gamma kicks in.Tdy & tmrw max put OI = 545. Stay safe 😜
March 10, 2025 at 6:14 PM
1/ The 4.5 points inverted 3-mth #VIX curve did the trick almost on the nose: mkt reversed when curve hit -4.89 (white line on chart/SPY red) and #QQQ hit the $480 level I highlighted on Mon in this piece filzucchi.substack.com/p/random-tho... That said, bounce wasn't convincing...

1/ #SPY trading < 100dma. There have been only 3 closes below that ma in the last year. Also 50dma has turned downward sloping. #IWM shows textbook rejection at 200dma (chart ↓). It's also trading < 50wma for 1st time since Nov'23, and only $0.70 > neckline of a freaky looking H&S pattern (↓)...

#If u think today's move in #MDGL means u missed it, here are the EPS estimates just for Rezdiffra going out to 2029 when - maybe - other MASH drugs may finally be ready for the current indication. And the est have not yet been updated based on today's report.

Re: #NVDA report: no idea what happens, but peeps r > worried than in Nov. ↓is the option Skew on Nov EPS day & tdy. Note how the whole term structure is higher (top line) and it skews bearish. For 2/28, max OI positions for puts & calls r at 140 strike,while Max $ pain is at 131. Good luck

Since 0DTE options became the preferred gambling game the implied vol term structure has been meaningfully compressed. +3 on the 3-month #VIX curve(white) was the bulls sweetspot, now it's a pretty frothy level. As u can see ↓, most times that level was reached a correction followed; #SPY in red

#RH has been the subj of a number of of scathing short reports, and just by listening to ccalls it's easy to conclude that the CEO is an egomaniacal asshole. As short interest goes in these names, 12% SI is not crazy high and the chart is now breaking.

The shitco parade will continue until all the shorts are dead.

Here is a look at how #GEV rev and adj EBITDA margin estimates for the next 3yrs have changed over the last 6 months. No lack of optimism as you can see. IMHO this stock will be stuck b/w $280-360 for a while, so at $320 it shows the friction b/w optimists & realists

By the way, the same indicator triggered at the open on the 60m chart of #SNOW and it worked for $8 in 2 hrs.

If people didn't know this is a chart of Eli Lilly, most wud be inclined to sell/short it against the 50 & 200 DMA.
December 4, 2024 at 5:00 PM
For fast money types (& in light of JPow at 1:40pm), there's a notable -ve divergence b/w IG CDX (white line) and $SPY $QQQ (red/green lines - inverted scale)
December 4, 2024 at 4:55 PM
W/ this kinda whiplash in IG credit derivs today, bunch of traders are gonna need some "billboard-quality" injury lawyers by the end of the day.
$SPY $QQQ $IWM

Cud b, but if it inverts again w/ Fed cutting I'm scared 2c what's gonna do to mkts.The small no. of times the curve has univerted, it has always gotten steeper. Given how deeply & for how long the last inversion has been, a reinversion wud be the ulitmate "this x is different" event
