I can't give you a short term timing. When I short term trade I play the price action as it happens. The market might turn down next week or not. I wait until we get there.

Should I sell this week or wait a few weeks, regarding the remainder of what I have, in order to further increase my cash position?

Re: Financial topics
Were they raising rates at the end of 2002? It looks like they did, half a point in November of 2002 and continued cutting into mid 2003 and beyond. Very interesting.Higgenbotham wrote: ↑Wed Nov 23, 2022 2:57 amStill not much new here. I started going short November 10 and added a little as the S&P approached and exceeded 4000.

Would be very interested in any additional views you may have
My equity is holding steady since starting to short again on November 10 and my account has good gains since the market bottom at 3500 (which is good performance for someone biased as bearishly as me). The big spike down in account value late September was a withdrawal.
If the 20 year (double decennial) cycle deserves any weight, December 2, 2002 was a local top before a sizable move down to the March 12, 2003 low. My best recollection and I have a bias that pattern could be approximately repeated (and with bigger swoons).

Without something cataclysmic, and that might happen in 2023-25 for sure, I see the S&P back down to 2800-3200, then foreign money will pour in and support the US markets. Later on, the government will have to print due to the global depression, and that's when we see oil, gold and BTC go through the roof.

How is this oil price versus energy stocks to be interpreted?

I'd say that the oil price in general is more "manipulated" like all pure commodities are by central banks/members, whereas the market flows and the business models (dividends, discipline, cash) bring in more to the stocks themselves.

Crowdstrike Holdings warning sparks selloff in cybersecurity stocks
Reuters
Nov 30 (Reuters) - A warning from Crowdstrike Holdings Inc (CRWD.O) that clients were cutting back on spending and delaying purchases due to an economic slowdown slammed cybersecurity stocks on Wednesday, inflicting fresh pain on the battered sector.
Crowdstrike's shares sank 20% before the bell after the company forecast current-quarter revenue on Tuesday that fell short of analysts' estimates, while peers Zscaler Inc (ZS.O), SentinelOne Inc (S.N) and Palo Alto Networks Inc (PANW.O) fell between 2.0% and 6.2%.
While the periphery breaks down rather slowly at first, the capital cities of the hegemon should collapse suddenly and violently.

Re: Financial topics
Select Sector SPDR Trust Energy is energy stocks on NYSE. The issue is that prices of energy stocks are going up while oil is going down. Why the only recent diverence?Cool Breeze wrote: ↑Wed Nov 30, 2022 10:14 amThose holdings are mostly oil stocks, not "energy" generically per serichard5za wrote: ↑Wed Nov 30, 2022 9:40 amHow is this oil price versus energy stocks to be interpreted?

Re: Financial topics
My favored scenario is taking shape. That would be for today or tomorrow to be a high before a significant move down starts. I added 50% to my short position late yesterday and this morning.Higgenbotham wrote: ↑Wed Nov 23, 2022 2:57 amStill not much new here.
