The first thing we notice is that the weekly Displaced Moving Average (DMA) Channel is below price which means that the bias is positive. In other words, it makes sense to be long.
Second, the Erlanger Volume Swing (EVS) is at 9.41 from 0.16 last week. Above 0 is good and below 0 is bad. So currently, it is back above zero and holding at that level.
Third, the Erlanger Crossover Spread (EC) Spread is at -0.68 from 0.12 and has turned to red which is a negative.
Last, the Erlanger Trend Direction (ETD) is still in pullback mode as it is red in the upper half.
So what is an investor to do here. We would recommend to stay with stocks but not be a buyer currently. Rather hold on to what we own. If we see further deterioration, then we will alert you to start raising some more cash.
Is the Chinese economy in trouble? I am shocked that the number two leader in China, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang, who spoke this morning at the opening of a World Economic Forum conference in Tianjin, China indicated that possible future.
"China is confronted with a host of challenges," Li noted. "[We're facing] greater difficulties in keeping stable performance of the Chinese economy." Li added claims that the recent slide of the yuan against the U.S. dollar was an intentional policy decision from Beijing were "simply not true."
Is China trying to make itself look weak to build support against the U.S.?
