Tweet of this week —> “Alt season starts”

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell stated this week that interest rates have likely reached their peak and anticipates at least three rate cuts within the year. Following this announcement, the S&P 500 index swiftly reached another all-time high, while the U.S. Dollar Index (#DXY) faced resistance at lower time frame (LTF) levels.

The to be expected trajectory is clear: a potential blow-off top in the market followed by a significant economic downturn, as outlined in the analysis in the FED rate chart below: when the Federal Reserve initiates rate cuts, stocks typically decline and enter a recession within approximately a year, and with the expectation of three rate cuts this year, this scenario seems imminent.

The 10Y-5Y and 30Y-5Y yield spreads have reversed above 0, indicating that broad economic expectations are normalizing for the 5Y time window. For the 2Y and 3Y timeframes this is not the case yet, implying broad negative sentiment for the period until 2027.
