Does &#8220;Sell the Rips\u201d Replace \u201cBuy the Dips\u201d?"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p>Traders love adages.&nbsp; \u201cDon\u2019t Fight the Fed\u201d, \u201cThe Trend is Your Friend\u201d, and \u201cBuy the Dip\u201d became highly worthwhile mantras for traders and investors alike.&nbsp; Foolproof strategies are investors\u2019 Holy Grail, and since March 2020 following those phrases had become an essentially foolproof set of strategies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Almost everyone who has been involved in markets over the past two years is intimately familiar with the concept of \u201cbuy the dip\u201d.&nbsp; It didn\u2019t work for every stock every time, but persistent monetary accommodation and successive bouts of fiscal stimulus provided a continual boost to asset prices.&nbsp; Major equity indices entered significant uptrends that rarely wavered.&nbsp;&nbsp; If one didn\u2019t fight the Fed and embraced those trends, it became quite profitable to buy dips when they occurred in leading stocks and ETFs linked to key indices.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yet those of us with some *ahem* history in the markets know that there is a second half to the \u201cbuy the dip\u201d mantra.&nbsp; The full phrase is actually \u201cBuy the Dips, Sell the Rips\u201d.&nbsp; It\u2019s a cute way to say \u201cbuy low, sell high\u201d, a concept that has applied to investors since time immemorial.&nbsp; It\u2019s easy to forget the second half of that phrase when markets are rising with nary a break, but forgetting that latter part can prove catastrophic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because the three adages referenced in the first paragraph tend to be intertwined, let\u2019s address them sequentially.&nbsp; Over the past two years, the Federal Reserve expanded its balance sheet at a record pace while keeping the Fed Funds rate anchored near zero.&nbsp; The most recent stimuli came after over a decade of generally accommodative policies by central banks around the world.&nbsp; Since the global financial crisis of 2007-2009, the Fed has presided over only brief periods when it attempted to raise rates and withdraw liquidity.&nbsp; It is no coincidence that markets had tremors during those periods, <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/macro\/2022-outlook-big-waves-ahead\/\">something we noted in our 2022 outlook<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>In response to the global financial crisis, the Fed and other central banks began quantitative easing in addition to low interest rates as a means to resuscitate the financial system.&nbsp; Over the past 12 years we have seen markets hit significant air pockets each time the Fed has even thought about reducing stimulus.&nbsp; Think about the taper tantrum of 2013, the market swoon in the fourth quarter of 2018 and the repo crisis of late 2019.&nbsp; All were events that induced volatility.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To be fair, each of those hiccups was met by another bout of Fed liquidity.&nbsp; But it behooved investors to be cognizant of and more risk-averse during the few times that the Fed was no longer accommodative.&nbsp; \u201cDon\u2019t Fight the Fed\u201d meant that one should have avoided buying stocks until the Fed returned to its stimulative ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a result of all that monetary accommodation, trends have largely been friendly to investors and many key trends remain that way.&nbsp; During uptrends, it typically behooves investors to buy dips when indices test major moving averages that have provided support to prior downdrafts, especially when those averages show rising trends.&nbsp; But it is important to remember that the converse holds true.&nbsp; When trends are pointing lower, those same moving averages tend to provide resistance points.&nbsp; That is when it behooves traders to sell the rips.&nbsp; We are starting to see that occur in some key market segments.&nbsp; Consider the following graphs:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-s-p-500-index-spx-2-year-daily-candles-white-blue-with-10-30-50-100-and-200-day-moving-averages\"><strong>S&amp;P 500 Index (SPX) 2 Year Daily

a recent attempted bounce.&nbsp; It has become more critical that the 200-day average provide support to this tech-heavy index, bearing in mind that NDX hasn\u2019t come close to that moving average

8% below that level and there are few obvious support levels for another 10% or so.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>S&amp;P TSX 60 Index (SPTSX, TSE60) 2 Year Daily Candles (white\/blue) with 10, 30, 50,

higher.&nbsp; While those of us in the US were off for MLK Day, our neighbors to the north were pushing this key index to a fresh all-time high.&nbsp; Even though banks are the largest sector in the TSE60, Canada is clearly a beneficiary of global inflation in oil and other commodity prices.&nbsp; Although the Bank of Canada is also moving toward a less accommodative stance, the trends in key Canadian industries, and hence their stocks and indices, remain in solid long-term uptrends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The takeaway from these graphs is that in many cases the trend still remains investors\u2019 friends.&nbsp; In those situations, \u201cBuy the Dip\u201d may still be a valid strategy, though the impending change in Fed policy adds a level of risk that was not present for well over a
