As of the close of last Friday (11/22), the value of SGS was calculated to be +162 and the status of SGS remains Long.

S&P 500 Support And Resistance Levels

The support and resistance levels for the current week in the SPX are shown above. The fluff surrounding Trump's election victory came off completely. Indices look good but bigger players are not putting more money to work. There is something out there that scares them. Maybe a wider war in the Middle East, maybe a big sell off in the bond market.
My Plan

Last Wednesday, I put 25% of cash to work on and bought XLF (10%), SPY (10%), BCT (5%), and last Thursday I added to XLF (10%) and SPY (10%) positions. Going forward, I am going to continue to add to my long positions.

Harris Is Very Likely The Next POTUS

SGS Market Timer Status:  LONG 
LONG as of the close of Friday August 16, 2024
Previous SGS Status

SGS is a Long-Term (weeks to months) Timer
SGS & SGS-ST Performance Data 


SGS Market Timer

As of the close of last Friday (11/1), the value of SGS was calculated to be +23 and the status of SGS remains Long.

S&P 500 Support And Resistance Levels

The support and resistance levels for the current week in the SPX are shown above. In the week leading up to both elections with Trump on the ballot, SPX
(Monday's Open to Friday's Close) dropped 2.1% in 2016 and 4.6% in 2020. Last week SPX dropped 1.8%.

Presidential Election Scenarios:
  • 70% Chance: Harris wins decisively. SPX rallies to a new all-time high, reaching 6,000 and potentially higher.
  • 25% Chance: The outcome is unclear for days or weeks. SPX experiences a significant sell-off, dropping 10% to 20%.
  • 5% Chance: Trump wins decisively. SPX remains volatile, trading sideways for an extended period.
My Plan

No change from last week, I'm planning to remain in cash at least until the presidential election is resolved and the next U.S. President is confirmed.
