Mish’s Daily: Long Bonds Could be Ready
Mish’s Daily: Long Bonds Could be Ready
Written by Michele ‘Mish’ Schneider
Among the throngs of headlines on X, this one came out today
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP JUST SAID: – ANNOUNCED THE TARIFF PAUSE BECAUSE PEOPLE GETTING AFRAID – REVERSED TARIFFS FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME, NOTHING IS OVER YET
Earlier today, Trump said,
Those who follow me regularly know that I have ranted about taking Trump and his right-hand men at face value.
Clearly, the market did after he first foreshadowed the rally and then announced the 9-day moratorium on tariffs.
Later, he announced that
“I WAS WATCHING BOND MARKETS; BOND MARKET NOW IS BEAUTIFUL”
That took me right to the chart of TLT, which also made a spectacular turnaround.
The chart shows a classic reversal pattern. New 60+ day low, and a close near the top 25% of the intraday trading range.
It also cleared back over the January 6-month calendar range high.
While SPY was well underperforming the long bonds, today, the long bonds took a backseat to SPY.
The Real Motion indicator is flatlining but does not show anything significant in the way of divergence.
Volume, not shown, indicates a flush to the downside.
Now, the price must confirm the reversal.
That means that Thursday, TLT must close above today’s high or 88.76.
