QQQ - Do not forget we are still in the bear market
Aggiornato
Yesterday, after the CPI print, the Nasdaq 100 index made a new low for 2022 before erasing all early losses and gaining more than 2%. New lows for QQQ marked approximately a 37.8%% decline from the all-time-high value, while for NQ1! this figure was close to 37.5%. As we stated previously, we expect the market to swing up and down ahead of the upcoming FED meeting. Therefore, we want to abstain from setting a price target, and instead, we want to stay on the sidelines and monitor the market.
We think it is essential to wait out the volatility and look for a better repositioning on the short side. In addition to that, we would like to see exhaustion among dip buyers and those predicting the market bottom while disregarding the macroeconomic factors. Accordingly, we stick to our bearish view of the U.S. economy and believe that the market is not done selling.
Despite that, we are very cautious as the market might be positioning itself for a continuation of the rise, which we expect to be short-lived. Furthermore, we expect the bullish hype to continue affecting other sectors of the economy, including cryptocurrencies. Though, we believe this dissolution will clear out with another interest rate hike by the FED and earnings season. Indeed, we think these events will strongly bolster our thesis about the second stage of the bear market.
