“Life is a constant series of opportunities. If we don’t reach out for things, if we don’t take advantage of what comes our way, then we cannot be in harmony with the essential nature of life.” – Ming-Dao Deng, 365 Tao: Daily Meditations
As we move into August, make sure you keep some of the main seasonals in the back of your mind. Kiwi, Dax and Nikkei are not featured in the following charts but this topic will be the focus of our Webinars and Video updates to kick-off this week.

Remember that we also have a lot of headline risk into NFP as we wait to get Biden’s V.P. pick, as the Relief Bill Circus continues and as we wait to hear the broad array of measures on Chinese-owned software.

Week Ahead
“Never think that lack of variability is stability. Don’t confuse lack of volatility with stability, ever.” – Nassim Nicholas Taleb
FOMC, GDP releases and especially the Thursday Earning Trifecta will be key this week as we wait for the vote on the next round of financial support programs.
Remember that we will also have to deal with a lot of continued headline risk, not only as the administration continues to try and pump up the volume on stimulus and a vaccine but also on the China escalation front.
Our base-case scenario (sentiment, technicals and seasonals) remains that we started a topping process on Monday 13th and we’ll continue to focus on our roadmap from here on.

As we have been highlighting, Monday 13th was a ‘key’ day and you should not underestimate the importance of the reversals we witnessed on that day along with the intraday action > FAANG+M, Copper, Tesla and so on.
In today’s session we are going to continue to focus on the recent all too familiar text-book earnings pump and fade dynamics along with where this fits into things from a cyclical and seasonal perspective.
Don’t forget that despite the ever increasing headline risk, markets remain extremely complacent at these levels.
