Out of 104, Only Two Industry Groups Show Rising Momentum

Out of 104, Only Two Industry Groups Show Rising Momentum

DecisionPoint Diamonds scans have failed to produce. In order to get even a few results it has required easing the restrictions, particularly on EMA configurations. If we don’t get scan results for “Diamonds in the Rough”, we dive into the Industry Summary on StockCharts.com so we can find pockets of strength. Well… there are none.

As of yesterday EVERY industry group had declining Price Momentum Oscillators (PMOs). Today two PMOs managed to rise a hundredth of a point. Technically that is positive momentum, but these groups are still very suspect.

First is Oil & Equipment Services ($DJUSOI). The price chart is murky at best, but there are a few signs of life. The RSI entered positive territory above net neutral (50) today. As noted in the opening, the PMO has turned up above both the zero line and signal line which is usually considered very bullish. While price did rebound and closed above the short-term rising trend, it stayed beneath at the 50-day EMA and February lows.

The Crude Oil chart (USO) is far from encouraging. Yes, there was a rally today, but it finished with a bearish filled black candlestick. Indicators are still very negative. Until this chart looks more healthy, I would be careful with this industry group.

The other industry group that saw rising momentum was Gold Mining ($DJUSPM). The Mining ETF ($DJUSMG) is still showing declining momentum.

We’ve been writing in the DP Alert that Gold Miners are beat down and are really vulnerable to more decline. Instead of using the industry group chart, we are going to use GDX. We have “under the hood” indicators available to us on that chart.

Currently, GDX is at 52-week lows and after the recent breakdown below the July low, we’ve warned that this group isn’t likely to rebound anytime soon. The big problem for Gold Miners is the complete lack of participation. You’ll notice 0% for nearly all participation indicators with the exception of one or two stocks with price above their 20-day EMA. Gold had a good day and likely that spurred GDX on.

The Gold chart is showing improvement with today’s rally, sort of. If Gold can continue to rally, fishing from the Gold Miners would be palatable. However, Gold Miners aren’t only subject to Gold prices, they are subject to the overall market trend as they are companies, not the metal.

Conclusion: There is nowhere to hide out. Interest rates are skyrocketing so the safety of Bonds is out the window and Gold has not been seen as a safe haven, at least not yet. The safest place is sadly cash or for brave souls, inverse ETFs and shorts.

Good Luck & Good Trading,
