Futures: Rotation, Not Retreat<\/h1>\n

By Eli Levy, Senior Analyst & Series 3 Broker<\/em><\/h3>\n

\"futures\"<\/p>\n

The New Quarter Begins<\/h3>\n

The new quarter arrived with a jolt. After a first half where the AI and semiconductor trade did much of the heavy lifting, this week saw that same corner of the market hit with selling pressure and real volatility \u2014 and notably, it happened even as oil prices eased and yields drifted lower. The pressure wasn\u2019t about the macro backdrop turning hostile; it was about money in motion, rotating out of the most crowded trades and looking for a home elsewhere.<\/p>\n

PHLX\/KOSPI\/SOX<\/h3>\n

The numbers tell the story. The PHLX Semiconductor Index (SOX) fell roughly 12% over just two sessions, pressured in part by a sharp overnight drop in Korea\u2019s KOSPI, which shed 7.89% in one session. On one side of the coin, this looks like a long-overdue mean reversion: the SOX rallied nearly 100% in the first six months of the year, a parabolic run that arguably needed to cool.<\/p>\n

Mircron<\/h3>\n

Micron\u2019s reaction last week was a tell \u2014 the stock traded poorly on massive volume despite reporting, and the optical names tied to the AI build-out have been rolling over alongside it. On the other side of the coin, sharp pullbacks inside a longer-term uptrend have repeatedly turned out to be buying opportunities, and there\u2019s a case that this one proves no different.<\/p>\n

Healthcare\/Insurance<\/h3>\n

What\u2019s keeping the mood constructive is where the money is going. Rather than fleeing the market entirely, it\u2019s rotating beneath the surface. Healthcare is breaking out of a five-year trading range, insurance is emerging from an 18-month base, and REITs \u2014 flat for the better part of five or six years \u2014 are being watched as a possible next leg. As long as capital rotating out of momentum keeps finding a home, the pullback reads as healthy churn rather than a broad unwind. The economic data and growth forecasts remain strong, the broadening looks like it\u2019s still underway, and July seasonality has historically favored the bulls.<\/p>\n

US – Iran Relations<\/h3>\n

Overseas and in Washington, the picture is mixed but not alarming. The U.S.\u2013Iran ceasefire is not going smoothly, and the status of the Strait of Hormuz remains unclear, yet oil has held below $70 a barrel and markets remain hopeful of a resolution. At the ECB forum, Fed Chair Kevin Warsh stayed tight-lipped on forward guidance while reiterating his commitment to getting inflation back to the 2% target. With next week light on both the economic and earnings calendars, near-term direction can likely be steered by technicals, Middle East headlines, oil, and yields rather than by fresh data.<\/p>\n

3:2:1 Crack Spread<\/h3>\n

The 3-2-1 Crack Spread approximates the value of crude oil inputs and product outputs \u2013 in effect an indicator of refinery profitability. The 3-2-1 Crack spread approximates a theoretical refinery crude yield that produces two barrels of gasoline and one barrel of diesel for every three barrels of crude input. In other words, the simplified refinery yield implied by this calculation is two-thirds gasoline, one-third diesel. It is calculated in $\/bbl.<\/p>\n

Here is the simple mathematical formula:<\/em><\/h3>\n

The PriceCount study is a tool that can help to project the distance of a move in price. The counts are not intended to be an \u2018exact\u2019 science but rather offer a target area for the four objectives which are based off the first leg of a move with each subsequent count having a smaller percentage of being achieved. <\/em><\/p>\n

It is normal for the chart to react by correcting or consolidating at an objective and then either resuming its move or reversing trend. Best utilized in conjunction with other technical tools, PriceCounts offer one more way to analyze charts and help to manage your positions and risk. <\/em><\/p>\n
