Technical Speculator ...your financial market review

The February 2025 Newsletter has now been posted

These three pages are part of the 25-page February Newsletter.

This month's research report topics are Commodities: Inflation, Yields, Trump.  International Equities: Take out the SPX; markets look weak.  U.S. & Canadian Equities: Some cracks are showing.  Breakouts!  Four new securities to profit from.

The Commodity section reviews the continued connection between the S&P Commodity Index (GTX) and the US 10-year yields.   The same forces drive both assets.  The Agriculture and Livestock sectors are the top 90-day performers.  Oil prices continue to feel headwinds as WTI prices remain under pressure in Q2. Gold swings to a new high with a new upside target.  The US dollar remains favourable among traders as inflationary pressures continue.

The S&P 500 is the primary support for the bull trend in global markets.  When the SPX is removed, a different picture appears.  The UK, DAX, Spain's IBEX, and Australia's ASX led. 

The US economy is slowing. Unemployment and inflation pushes higher.  GDP growth shows no increase.  A new downside target for the Canadian dollar,  New highs for the NYSE, S&P 500 and TSX.  

Four new breakout stocks.  Gold, technology and financials securities offer upside potential.
