Rotation - After gyrationsINVESTMENT CONTEXT S&P 500 Energy Sector has registered 10-trading day decline dropping by 23.7% as fears of recession and lower demand pushed traders to liquidate longer-dated positions On June 23, all 33 of the U.S. biggest banks, some of which considered as systemically important, successfully passed the Fed's annual stress tests, confirming their ability to lend and maintain capital levels during severe economic breakdown During the summit in Brussel on June 23, Ukraine and Moldova formally received the symbolic status of "candidates" to join the European Union JPMorgan does not expect a recession to materialize over the next 12 month; according to the Bank, global growth will accelerate from 1.3% in the first half of 2022 to 3.1% in the second part of the year thanks to recovery of Chinese economy On a different note, Germany warned that Russia's move to curb natural gas deliveries to Europe could trigger an economic downfall similar to that caused by Lehman Brothers at the onset of the Great Financial Crisis Copper prices recorded 16-month low on June 23 because of growing worries about rising COVID-19 cases in China and stoking worries of a global economy recession PROFZERO'S TAKE As the world finally takes notice that there won't be a solution to the current industrial crisis unless a global strategy on energy emerges, ProfZero has witnessed the steep correction faced already by commodities just on fears of a recession. Brent crude has plunged to USD 110/boe after some bull analysts forecasted it could top its all time high at USD 147.50/boe (July 2008); iron and copper are down 30% and 17%, respectively, on a monthly basis, while also wheat prices retraced 25% from the all-time high touched on May 17. Albeit encouraging under an inflation perspective, these signs may be indicative of greater distress in commodities - hence more stringent need to quickly restructure global supply chains, particularly as soft commodities are exposed to extreme conditions (Italy drought) Growth stocks roared back on June 24, as traders unloaded Value and commodity-driven stocks repositioning in favor of the battered tech segments. ProfZero argues the move comes as investors reassess the likelihood of a recession, which would undoubtedly punish cyclical players, starting from big-ticket items (automotive, leisure operators) down to non-core consumer goods (non-food retail, handheld devices). As Growth trades still at record lows, it might be a good chance to start fishing for opportunities before the next cycle kicks-in - yet bearing in mind that within the next 2 weeks markets will still likely face volatility spikes due to June inflation reading in the U.S. (ProfZero does not expect a major slowdown yet from May's 8.6%) and Q2 earning season After Citi and Deutsche Bank located the probability of a recession in the U.S. at 50%, JP Morgan historical bull Marko Kolanovic reiterated his positive stance for a soft landing in the second half of the year, thanks to solid Chinese recovery and stabilizing geo-political conditions, including the conflict in Ukraine . As much as in May, ProfZero fails to share Mr. Kolanovic constructive tone. Although fully persuaded the war in Ukraine shall end, any tangible sign of relief for the world economy will take months to materialize. In China, President Xi has confirmed the country will achieve the 5.50% GDP growth target it set; yet, it remains to be seen then how the country will cope with its internal hurdles in real estate and rampant industrial overcapacity (steel)

Real economy beating expectations yet markets trading in red 🤔INVESTMENT CONTEXT President Vladimir Putin said that Russia was not blocking Ukrainian wheat from being exported, and that the grain could be dispatched via ports controlled either by Russia or Ukraine. Before the war, Russia and Ukraine accounted for ca. 29% of international annual wheat sales U.S. economy added 390,000 jobs in May, beating analyst expectations (325,000) and showing resilient real economy in the face of rampant inflation and higher interest rates Crude oil inventories in the U.S. fell to 414.7 million barrels in the wake of strong demand, yet limiting chances of further releases to cool domestic energy prices Goldman Sachs COO John Waldron followed JPMorgan's CEO Jamie Dimon saying “This is among if not the most complex, dynamic environment I’ve ever seen in my career". On a similar tone, in a leaked Tesla email, Elon Musk cited having a "super bad feeling" about the economy as the main reason for shedding 10% of the company's workforce PROFZERO'S TAKE When good news are met with S&P 500 dropping more than 1.50%, and Nasdaq doing even worse at 2.47% in the red, we know something is off. That's what happens when bears are in control, and policy makers are desperate to understand how far can they move with tightening before the backlash. A remarkably strong U.S. economy just added 390,000 jobs in May, beating analyst expectations and reassuring the Fed it could maintain the trajectory of 50bps rate hikes in July and August. ProfZero clearly welcomes Main Street's resilience and rising wages - yet, as anticipated in Step99 podcast, it cautions against the forward-looking effects of monetary policy vs. the actual state of the economy. As pointed out by The Economist, "A recession in America by 2024 looks likely" - today's strength of the real economy may at best soften its blow Citigroup CEO Jane Fraser sees "three R" whiplashing EU economy - rates, Russia and recession, this latter happening in Europe ahead of the U.S. because of "the energy side (...) really having an impact". ProfZero has made energy a key theme of this Parlay, with potentially more decisive effects on the real economy than monetary policy. With Brent testing again USD 120/boe and fading cushion inventories from the U.S., it is hard to imagine how the EU will cope with the next cold season without rationing output, hence slashing GDP growth. Regasification plants and last-generation nuclear are definitely tools of the future; but by then, are seaborne imports going to be enough? Equities are definitely off the lows witnessed in April and early May - perhaps Musk's "super bad feeling" and Mr. Dimon's "hurricane" are rather looming on the real economy? Not an inch less worrying... BTC once again confidently breaking up the mid-term triangle pattern and trying to regain 32k after trading below 30k on June 4-5 - and yet ProfZero's eyes are set on the lurking death cross on 200MA PROFONE'S TAKE After sharing about lithium and nickel, ProfOne completes the overview of rare minerals that are crucial for the production of batteries setting its eyes are on cobalt. Cobalt prices soared from USD 30k/ton in January to USD 52k in May - on top of the 2x surge in 2021 vs. 2020. According to the Cobalt Institute, in the next five years cobalt demand is expected to hit 320k/ton, up from 175k/ton in 2021. ProfOne argues that meeting such demand won’t be operatively easy. For once, cobalt is yet another highly concentrated resource: about 70% of world’s cobalt comes from the Democratic Republic of Congo, where production is dominated by Chinese companies and commodities trader Glencore (GLEN). Adding to it that world's second supplier of cobalt is Russia, the metals puzzle turns out to be a fairly intricate one

Did someone forget we are in a bear market?INVESTMENT CONTEXT JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon stated at a banking conference that investors should brace for a "hurricane right out there down the road and coming our way" At the same conference, Wells Fargo's CEO Charles Scharf added "the scenario of a soft landing is (...) extremely difficult to achieve in the environment (...) we're in today" U.S. manufacturing data for May positively surprised, with the index declining to 56.1 vs. analyst expectations of 54.5 - demand apparently remains strong even amidst supply-chain constraints choking retail Italy's natural gas distribution leader Snam bought a floating regasification terminal with capacity of 5 billion cubic meters a year from Golar LNG as efforts to diversify energy supply off from Russia gain pace President Joe Biden is expected to be visiting Saudi Arabia later in June to discuss greater OPEC+ commitment to lift crude oil production in a bout to lower prices PROFZERO'S TAKE Equities are failing to keep up the rebound attempted last week, on the back of still weak fundamentals and waning technical support - Nasdaq testing the 12k mark in particular testifies that a much-awaited bounce back in tech stocks simply can't hold for now. Tellingly, Jamie Dimon's meteorological metaphors muted from "big storm clouds" just on May 23 to a "hurricane"; ProfZero won't broadcast on The Weather Channel, but definitely concurs the winds of volatility will be blowing strongly for a few quarters more Encouraging signs from Saudi Arabia are tempering concerns of even higher crude oil prices due to Russia's output being squeezed by sanctions. OPEC+ largest producer indicated it will step in raising output should Russia's quota drop excessively - yet ProfZero argues that can't be expected happen too fast, given the cartel's clear liking for the current price environment. Call on President Biden to ease the increase ProfZero won't say "I told you" - the big red candle on page 3 does an already excellent job reminding BTC traded in overbought territory for almost 2 sessions. Calling the bottom now? Only on stronger fundamentals PROFONE'S TAKE ProfOne set its eyes on lithium, indicated by IEA as the mineral for which demand was growing the fastest. Lithium price ballooned 68% since the beginning of 2022, and car manufacturers do not anticipate any easing for several years, now that the European Parliament just voted to ban the sale of new cars with combustion engine from 2035. Lithium demand is growing so rapidly that ProfOne understands why Tesla (TSLA) CEO Elon Musk wants to integrate upstream into lithium production. Lithium shares a common issue in the commodity space - 80% of the world’s lithium is mined in just 3 countries, namely Australia, Chile and China. Yet another head-scratching factor amidst talks of de-globalization and tighter supply chains PROFTHREE'S TAKE This week was rich in Purchasing Manager’s Indices (PMIs) print for May in China. Both the official manufacturing PMI and the Caixin gauge beat expectations, ticking up from April lows. Although the figures remain below the 50-point level which separates growth from contraction, the negative trend seems to have come to an end (or a hold) thanks to lifting in COVID-19 restrictions. ProfThree sees optimism over Shanghai reopening to continue, yet warns against being too naive to exclude the probability of another variant coming. With China’s economy reeling and limited headroom for monetary stimulus due to soaring inflation, it is too early to call a rebound. Profs remain cautious about this year’s economic perspectives for the country - and in a certain way for the (ex?) globalized world at large

JPM - Short Term Opportunity with 60% Upside?Given the tendency of banks benefitting from the periods when interest rates are rising, is JP Morgan going to provide investors an impressive 60% upside at these turbulent times? Let's look at it in more detail. Fundamental indicators: Revenue and Profits - demonstrated consistent long-term earnings growth over the past 10 years Profit margin - impressive 31% in 2021 P/E - 8.7x which is considerably lower than the current S&P500 ratio, i.e. very attractive Liabilities - no problems with considering this is a banking sector Technical Analysis (Elliott Waves): Following the correction of March 2020 shares of JPM have been growing but in a very choppy manner which indicates a potential development of an Ending Diagonal pattern Waves 1 to 3 have been already completed and we are observing the shaping of corrective wave 4. It has already entered the space of wave 1 bust just about and it's likely to correct a little deeper Once wave 4 is completed this scenario suggests another zig-zag to the upside before global and very lengthy correction starts, that may last more than 2 years for JPM What do you think about JP Morgan and its short term prospects? Also let me know if you would like to see other stocks, indices, Forex or Crypto analysed using Elliott Waves. Thanks PS Below is the Educational post about Ending Diagonals

JPMorgan Falls Thru Trap-Door Equivalent to Pre-COVID HighsNot much of an explanation needed here... financials have been struggling, and JPM right along with them. What's notable here is that price has fallen below the pre-COVID highs, which means that all recapture, plus growth obtained prior to COVID, has all be vanished for stockholders of the mega-bank.

$XLF tons of overhead supply ; will the gaps fill?Financials on full display going into earnings . Will those GAPS fill? Keep them on your radar. #XLF #JPM #C #BAC Interest Rates continue to rise on 30 year home mortgages and the federal interest rates consumers begin feeling the pain of being both pushed out of the market and every direction they turn. In most cases higher interest rates help the banks and some could say, “higher rates drive up prices, which increase companies earnings and consumer price index ( CPI );” however, I think many are overlapping the current with past recessions. In most cases that may work – but this time isn’t like any time of our past. The amount of headwinds on the global fronts and out of control printing of debt holistically. In any case, I am cautious on banks with all the segments of their lives being impacted with oil , shipping, economic contraction, rising rates, etc. not to mention rising wages being outpaced by inflation and poverty increase by x-hundreds of thousands per month. Tons of overhead supply that could be potential opportunities for entries on rejection. WILL THE GAPS FILL? ** What happens when households cannot afford to acquire loans and it’s too late for them to refinance their homes… just food for thought.

Trading Idea - #JPMorganMy trading idea for JP Morgan - SHORT / SELL Entry: 133.20 USD Target: 108.00 USD (+18% profit) Stop: 146.10 USD JPMorgan Chase & Co . is a global financial services company. The company operates in four segments: consumer & community banking ( CCB ), corporate & investment bank ( CIB ), commercial banking ( CB ) and asset & wealth management ( AWM ). U.S. banks face huge earnings losses. First-quarter profit expectations for major banks have been cut considering the Russia sanctions and a severe slowdown in business activity. JPMorgan (NYSE:JPM) is the 17th most popular stock among hedge funds, according to a study by ClearBridge Investments. JPMorgan was in 107 hedge fund portfolios in the fourth quarter of 2021, compared with 101 in the previous quarter. Even with the increasing interest from institutional investors, the stock has lost about -20% in the last 3 months! Insiders believe "JPMorgan Chase is too big to fail". JPMorgan is indeed an influencing giant of the financial world, but a share price recovery also depends on the global economy and its recovery. In terms of the chart, we have been in a strong downtrend since November 2021. Again and again, there have been strong moves to counteract it. This has led to high volatility in the share. The SHORT momentum remains and solid ground by a support level is not really in sight.
