Putin's Big Bluff

SGS  Market Timer Status:  SHORT 
SHORT as of the close of Friday January 7, 2022
Previous SGS Status
SGS is a Long-Term (weeks to months) Timer
Why Market Timing Is A Must


I am not a Russian or Ukrainian expert but it seems to me that Putin is bluffing about going into Ukraine and the West has called his bluff.  So now he has three options: (1) fold and back off, (2) invade, or (3) do little incursions here and there (Donbas region) but keep full invasion option on the table.  I think Putin very likely does the third option and the standoff continues for a while.  If Putin actually invades, indices would take a leg down and SPX could drop another 5% to around 4000.   


SGS Market Timer

As of the close of last Friday (2/18), the value of SGS was calculated to be -645 and the status of SGS remains SHORT.
