    SPX has more or less hit Equity Clock’s bottom support level it has been calling in the 4200-4260 range hitting 4266 on Monday. As far as a market catalyst is concerned it would be negotiations on the US debt ceiling with a government shut down possibly occurring by Sunday. This situation is nothing we haven’t seen before and inevitably there will be a deal. The extremists in the GOP are a little more concerning this time around.
    Oil and gas continues to be the sector that outperforms with CNQ making a new USD high this morning. I will continue to bang the drum on that sector which is underowned and has had no shortage of naysayers though they tend to be muted now.

  2. Larry/ON Says:

    IMO – New all-time high. MEG – New all-time high. ARX – New high going back to Jun 22 which it close to clearing.

  3. Larry/ON Says:

    BCE – The drop is a fascinating example of a darling blue chip widows and orphans stock just getting hammered with investors left stunned not understanding what is happening. Bond proxies are just the worst place to be with rising rates. ENB is another. When you see bond yields turn lower these stocks will bottom. I was looking at BCE when it was around $55 and passed on it. Now down another 8%. It broke an important support level going all the way back to Q1 2020 at the 52.25 range which was tested Oct 22. The 40 year era of dropping interest rates died in 2020.
