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.

<li>Watch the CNY as well as DXY. Chinese Yuan has broken out of its long-established target band. Net capital outflows are very weak. Could the CNY test RMB10/US$?</li>
<li>China’s broken economy needs a new source of demand that can create less debt dependent future GDP growth. Devaluation may prove the solution</li>
<li>Oct/ Nov show PBoC injecting more liquidity into Chinese money markets after year of tightness, following attempts to support the Yuan. Lower CNY will allow PBoC more space to ease</li>

<li>We were transitioning to short USD at DXY 114 and 113 ahead of the touted break below trendline support that is now unfolding. Our pullback target is DXY 103.</li>
<li>A weaker USD is acting as a key risk turn for EM and Asian equities (EEM bull from 34).</li>
<li>The USD breakdown is accompanied by a clear yield support break that is perhaps the higher conviction bet into a recession.</li>

<ul>
<li>The market remains in bear market rally mode, and our price target remains the 200-day MAs on the SPX and Russell 2000, as discussed in last week's Compass (Oct. 25).</li>
<li>Longer-Term, this is still a bear market until the S&amp;P 500 and IWM can break above their respective YTD downtrends/200-day MAs, and markets could easily test their lows again.</li>
<li>With that said, there are signs that suggest breakouts above YTD downtrends/200-day MAs could be coming. Catalysts include the FOMC announcement on Wednesday, followed by midterm elections on Nov. 8.</li>
