Although IBKR has edited for clarity no material changes have been made<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Andrew Wilkinson:<\/strong> Welcome to this week\u2019s Market Minute with me, Andrew Wilkinson, and my guest, Kevin Davitt from the Nasdaq. Kevin, welcome back to the program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kevin Davitt:<\/strong> Thanks for having me back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Andrew Wilkinson:<\/strong> Let\u2019s get straight into it. Markets started to sink at the end of last week, with certain technical factors\u2014ones we\u2019ll get into later\u2014coming into play. However, that Truth Social post from President Donald Trump at the start of trading on Monday sent futures markets surging, and equity prices moved sharply higher. Kevin, what feedback did you hear from traders?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kevin Davitt:<\/strong> There are so many different ways you could look at it. My primary feedback\u2014and I\u2019ve spoken with a handful of people active in the markets\u2014was around energy, and the extent to which, particularly over the past month, energy prices have been almost perfectly negatively correlated to equity prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What do I mean by that? When energy goes up, equity prices and indices tend to trend lower, and vice versa. Crude oil, as well as Brent, both fell precipitously following that Truth Social tweet\u2014or whatever they\u2019re called\u2014and energy prices rallied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The other part of it, or the other rumblings I heard\u2014and I think others shared this view\u2014was that the close yesterday was pretty weak. There was no follow-through on that initial knee-jerk rally. Despite a number of metrics going into standard or quarterly expiration last week, and breaking through some important technical levels, we simply didn\u2019t have enough momentum to push higher beyond about 2%. The Nasdaq 100 closed a little more than 1% higher, and we\u2019re seeing similar dynamics today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you watch the markets day after day, rather than intraday, it can seem like nothing is happening. But there are many days with fairly significant swings that don\u2019t close at either extreme. It\u2019s been quite a volatile few weeks in the markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Andrew Wilkinson:<\/strong> It certainly has. I continue to be blown away by the fact that one person\u2019s tweets can move markets to this extent, without much thought given to what\u2019s actually being said. Did anything stand out to you from Monday\u2019s session? Are there any clues about the stickiness of the rally?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kevin Davitt:<\/strong> I think the way I look at it is almost as a mirror of what we saw on Friday. The prior session was one of the worst breadth and volume down days for the broad market in quite some time, and that was largely reversed yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking at just the Nasdaq 100, only about eight of the 101 tickers in the index were lower. That kind of breadth\u2014so much participation on the upside\u2014is unusual. And we saw similar dynamics across other indices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But that can also be confusing. The broader trend over the past six weeks has been lower lows and lower highs, with a lot of intraday volatility in between. From my perspective\u2014and I\u2019m not saying we necessarily need it\u2014there hasn\u2019t really been a signal of broader capitulation, though sometimes you do get those.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Andrew Wilkinson:<\/strong> As you mentioned, the Nasdaq and the S&amp;P 500 both fell below their respective 200-day moving averages. How concerned does that make you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kevin Davitt:<\/strong> It does make me concerned, and I don\u2019t think I\u2019m alone. That said, I don\u2019t want to lean too heavily into fear or place too much weight on a single long-term support level. Historically, it mattered more when there were more active investors with rules-based triggers for de-risking, and the 200-day moving average was often one of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In today\u2019s market environment, there are more systematic, rules-based participants\u2014CTAs, for example\u2014and they tend to be trend-following, so their triggers may or may not align.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The only time the Nasdaq 100 has been below its 200-day moving average over the past two years was during the risk-off period in March and April of last year, driven largely by tariff concerns. Before that, you\u2019d have to go back to 2022 for both the last occurrence and the longest stretch below that level. The S&amp;P and other indices show a very similar pattern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The longer we stay below that level, the more concerned I become about an environment resembling 2022. For those who may be newer or a bit removed from that period, we had significant inflation concerns, compounded by the Russia-Ukraine escalation, which is still ongoing. More recently, geopolitical tensions have again raised inflation concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At that time, tech valuations were at the epicenter, and we\u2019ve since seen a washout across much of the software sector. It hasn\u2019t been as broad-based as in 2022, but to sum it up: if we can\u2019t reclaim the 200-day moving average relatively quickly, my concern\u2014without overstating it\u2014continues to build.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Andrew Wilkinson:<\/strong> And just to remind the audience, last week\u2014available on IBK webinars\u2014Kevin delivered a fantastic 45-minute session on whether this bull market is set to rebound or turn into something else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kevin Davitt:<\/strong> Yeah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Andrew Wilkinson:<\/strong> Go and check it out\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kevin Davitt:<\/strong> Thank you for that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Andrew Wilkinson:<\/strong> It\u2019s well worth your time. Kevin, I\u2019ll let you get back to what you do best at the Nasdaq. Thanks for joining me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kevin Davitt:<\/strong> Thanks for having me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Markets are swinging sharply as headlines and social media posts appear to drive sudden surges and reversals.
