SPX futures attempted a rally, challenging the 50-day Moving Average, but couldn’t break through. They have since slipped beneath the Head & Shoulders neckline and most likely have triggered that formation. That should send the SPX beneath the 200-day Moving Average at 2666.78 and possibly beneath the lower trendline of the Broadening Wedge formation at 2625.00.

ZeroHedge reports, “US equity markets are looking to undo yesterday's bearish reversal, with index futures higher this morning, reversing the trend from earlier markets where Asian stocks flirted with a 9 month low and Europe was mixed.”

NDX futures have also slipped beneath its Head & Shoulders neckline. A more likely target may be at 6322.60, the origin of the Ending Diagonal.

VIX futures had early morning losses, but is staging a comeback.

Bloomberg reports, “Options bets on stocks and exchange-traded funds are piling up around key deadlines in President Donald Trump’s trade crusade and at least one strategist doesn’t think it’s a coincidence.

Six of the 11 most-active contracts on the U.S. exchanges Tuesday had a June 29 expiration. That’s a day before the Treasury Department is scheduled to propose restrictions on Chinese investments in the U.S. It’s also the last session before Congress can block renewal of a measure known as the trade-promotion authority, which provides for a yes-or-no vote by lawmakers on trade deals.”

TNX appears to be stalled at mid-Cycle support at 28.26. Should a breakthrough happen, the Head & Shoulders neckline may be the next target. TNX has about three weeks until its next Master Cycle low, which may simultaneously conform to an UST high. One fly in the ointment is the $30 billion of US treasuries that need refinancing on or around June 30.

ZeroHedge comments, “It’s that time again. At the end of this month, the Federal Reserve has over $30 billion of notes maturing. I won’t rehash what this might mean for the market, rather for those not familiar, I ask you to go read Pink Tickets On QT Days.”

USD futures appear to be consolidating. My best analysis suggests there may be a final run-up to the Cycle Top resistance at 95.89 in the next few days. Another inverted Master Cycle high is due.

Gold futures reached a new low at 1249.80 this morning, testing the Cycle Bottom before pulling back. This may be the final low since it is overdue for a Master Cycle low. The subsequent rally may be Wave [c] of 2. The likely target may be the mid-Cycle resistance at 1306.22.
