Option Professor-S&P 4650 by EOM or Deterioration to Downside Acceleration? Must Read!
September 10 2021 Option Professor Observations & Opinions
Greetings Everyone!
This is the tug of war we are now now involved with in the first 2 weeks of September…..is this a 2 week dip before a big up move going into end of Q3 OR are we deteriorating our short term graphs and will test longer term MA’s? The inflation numbers came out and they are very high and much of it may stick. The talk of higher taxes has not been factored into prices nor has tapering in our view. China is tired of being lectured to by the USA as they see we have our own problems plus at $17 Trillion to our $22 Trillion…they no longer are the little kid on the block. Will they brings ships toward Guam-Japan-Philippines and cause havoc in the South China Seas & Taiwan??…Who knows-Who’s Ready? Our view is the biggest risk to the market is VALUATION in that Barron’s had a chart last week showing the differential between the 10yr Treasury yield and the P/E ratio on the S&P 500. The chart went back decades and the spread between the 2 in our summation had never been wider….we surmise that the spread will tighten and with little appetite to raise rates the logical conclusion is that P/E’s will decline. An analyst at Citi noted a few weeks back that a normal P/E with inflation running even at 3%+ would be 18 so at 200 X 18 =3600 and even 240X18=4320…just basic math. We saw today how any news can cause a sizeable reaction when AAPL got hit regarding the app store and the stock is about 10 bucks off the highs…no big deal but if 158 is not taken out by EOM and we turn lower in October it may be. Speaking for October….it has been a tricky month so if we do run up to SPX 4650 by EOM Sept…it may be wise to look to sell calls/buy puts into that stampede as the risk reward at that point may be a bit dodgy. Our monthly graphs gave us a sell at SPX 4540 and went home accelerating to the downside…our yearly graphs have support at SPX 4450..close!!

Bond Market
The ECB hinted at tapering and the Fed will announce the same on Sept 22 after an inflation report that is scary and sticky.

Gold Silver Copper Crypto
Our view has been traders should avoid the precious metals until they close and maintain above the LT 1 yr MA’s. Since that has not happened no rush here. Our view since July was that BitCoin & ETHE bottomed and so far that is accurate
