Equities – The 3-months triangle pattern between 3,209.5-3,234 (9/24 and 10/30/20 lows) and 3,588-3,646 (9/2 and 11/9/20 highs) has been resolved in favor of the bulls. The 11/9/20 breakout renders the next SPX target toward 3,773 (recent 1-mo breakout above 3,646), and above this to 3,967-4,082 (triangle breakout target), intermediate-term), and then to 4,595 (Aug 2002 V-breakout projection, longer-term). Initial support rises to 3,634-3,646 (12/1/20 gap-up breakout), and below this to 3,550-3,588 (11/9/20 gap-up breakout), and then to 3,485-3,502 (50-day ma and the extension of the triangle). Intermediate-term support remains at 3,116-3,159 coinciding with the 7/9/20 low and the 200-day ma.
Fixed Income – The 30-year US yields (TYX) and the 10-year US yields (TNX) temporarily diverged during April-August 2020 via a higher-low in TYX and a lower-low in TNX. Since September 2020, a series of higher-lows and now higher-highs suggest the return to its direct relationship and the potential for higher US interest rates, intermediate-term. A TYX breakout above 1.761-1.767%/1.83% reaffirms the next TYX rally toward the next key resistance at 1.940%. A TNX breakout above 0.957-0.975%/0.989% suggests the next TNX rally toward the next key resistance at 1.171-1.266%.

S&P 500 Sectors – In the past eight weeks ending on Nov 30, 2020, the S&P 500 sector rotations have dramatically changed. Only one S&P sector now resides in the Leading Quadrant (Industrials – XLI). Most S&P sectors are currently residing in two quadrants. In the Weakening Quadrant are Consumer Discretionary (XLY), Technology (XLK), Communication Services (XLC), and Materials (XLB). In the Improving Quadrant are Healthcare (XLV), Utilities (XLU), Real Estate (XLRE), Consumer Staples (XLP), and Financial (XLF). The rotations denote overbought conditions in some sectors and hence corrections (Weakening Quadrant) and oversold conditions in other sectors (Improving Quadrant).
