Technical and Quantitative Research

Vermilion Research

Vermilion’s objective is to deliver timely, actionable, and unique technical research to professional investors through the application of our various technical indicators.

Our research strategists seek to highlight securities which we believe are at major inflection points, based on our various technical and quantitative indicators, and offer asymmetric risk/return profiles. Our unique research methodology, centered on relative strength, enables our strategists to deliver superior investment recommendations.

Our process begins by organizing the universe of actively traded stocks into discrete sectors, then into industry groups. We then apply our technical and quantitative tools to identify developing price trends. Once attractive trends are identified within a selected sector or group, we screen for individual stocks which we believe offer the best risk/reward profile. We provide a historical perspective that often reveals, through our long-term charts, how price patterns often repeat themselves over time.

Technical Analysis

<ul>
<li>Global equity indexes have staged impressive rallies from oversold levels, and certain hard-hit areas in Europe (STOXX600 Technology, Industrial Goods &amp; Services, and Chemicals Sectors) display bullish short-term price reversals.</li>
<li>We view this as a potential signal that the lows may have been established for this correction, but we need to see more upside follow-through.</li>
<li>Regardless, we want to stick with Sectors and stocks that have remained technically attractive throughout this pullback, not on areas that are just now spiking from oversold levels within downtrends.</li>

Deteriorating credit metrics continue to support our view that the level of risk is increasing within the small-mid cap universe. </li>
<li>
Our screen looks for high valuation multiples presented by candidates with significant earnings growth forecasts, as well as financial indicators that suggest balance sheet distress. Therefore, with the credit markets pointing towards high yield stress, this screen becomes highly relevant.</li>

15 stocks appear in our Q2 2020 screen. The average stock rank in our list has decreased to 67.5 from 72.1 points since early March 2019. The reduction reflects some of the continued bearish moves in recent weeks within the Asian Universe. We, therefore, feel, as highlighted in other recent commentary, that the market is currently undergoing a defined separation of Quality, Value and relative Momentum.</li>
