Hello again Investors! Following up on my email of earlier this morning as well as my post to you of last week showing the about-to-break S&P 500 chart and accompanying comments, the below are steps I’m advocating we take next this morning:
1.Bump up your allocation to the AdvisorShares Ranger Equity Bear ETF (HDGE) to 10% of your overall portfolio (all accounts).
2.Bump up your allocation to the ProShares Ultra Short S&P 500 (SPXU) to 5% (all accounts).
3.For more Aggressive accounts add a renewed position to the Direxion Daily Small Cap Bear 3X ETF (NYSEArca-TZA) equal to 3% of your portfolio.
Stocks are poised to gap down a fait bit at the open; and together with the markets being slightly oversold already, be mindful that you may want to do the above in stages, in case there’s a bounce later today/in the coming few days.
But that said, my view is that the markets will continue to “ratchet” downward.
And especially if 1. the budget/C.R. negotiations hit a more rocky patch and 2. the Fed, as I expect, does not reduce rates next week, I see the bearish impulse continuing for a while.
All the best,
Chris Temple
