VNQ trade ideas
Weekly Bearish Engulfing On The Real Estate SectorThis Real estate ETF looks like it's ready to rollover on the weekly timeframe due to it bearishly engulfing, being at a 1.272 fib extension, and the RSI trendline being broken after reaching overbought.
I will either be looking to buy puts in VNQ tomorrow or i will be looking to purchase shares of the 3x Ultra Short Real Estate ETF $DRV
Weak mortgage applications print... VNQ about to head south? The mortgage applications print today was somewhat rough and represented an overheated market that's priced out the average citizen homebuyer. Mortgage apps actually declined in growth while building permits exceeded expectations. We can see that VNQ has been highly rangebound since the Covid rally and has failed multiple times to clear local highs at 107. Extremely bearish divergence for the better part of a year and MacD suggesting that any bullish pressure has been completely exhausted. I have no VNQ position but I expect to see this bear trend continue!
Why Im Watching Real Estate [VNQ]Vanguard Real Estate is showing some interesting things after quietly consolidating since early June. And now, it finds itself in the midst of a breakout of its previous all time high at $105.77. It is still very early, but if the VNQ can confirm any sort of sustained price action above the $105.77 price level on the daily and weekly time frames, fireworks could be in store for the REITs sector of the market.
It should be mentioned that VNQ's price action has not properly back-tested the always important .786 fib level ($99.35) I have plotted here. So a pull back to this level before having enough juice to push decisively through the all time high would not be out of the ordinary.
On the flipside, if the VNQ can get a close above the major level we are at this week, a setup for price to run to $124 could be in the cards in the not-so-distant future.
Housing - Bubble PopIdea for Housing/REITs (VNQ):
- The Housing Market will crash. I am short REITs.
- Lumber rose 400% in a year during a global crisis and then dropped 50% in a month... This is not a correction, but a bubble pop.
- China reining in commodity prices. They announce that they will soon release state stockpiles of metals:

- State firms ordered to curb overseas commodities exposure.
- Fed continues MBS purchasing with QE, despite RRP skyrocketing. Why? The MBS and Housing bubble is critical, and it is ready to collapse.
- Homebuyer sentiment drops to 10 year low:

- Homebuilder sentiment declines to reach a 10 month low (NAHB):

- Housing prices being speculated such that locals are priced out of the market. Institutional investors and State-backed institutions buy up neighborhoods as they seek yield in an overheated global market.
- The Credit Cycle has turned down, and the liquidity flows have been shut off. Institutions can no longer bid up their own assets.
- As commodities prices crash, it will become cheaper to build a house than to buy one off the market, leading to increasing supply and decreasing demand.
- When housing no longer provides yield, institutions will dump their assets onto the market and prices will crater.
- MBS's and Lumber leading the crash, the REITs will soon get the hint.
