Model switches to CASH/NEUTRAL.
The NASDAQ Composite is failing at its 50dma. Best to minimize risk. That said, this market has a tendency to look its worst when it shortly thereafter, finds sloppy support, then heads higher. That said, the recent reports here and here show the odds tilt in favor of a potentially sideways market at best.
The yield on the 10- and 30-year Treasurys are still uncomfortably high thus could serve as a capital drain on stocks. The recent Fitch downgrade of US credit pushed bond yields higher making them potentially more attractive than stocks. The latest PPI came in at 0.1% over estimates for both normal and core which also pushed yields higher.
