The equity bears are retreating
The counter-movement on the US stock market is clearly unsettling the bears, who are retreating to the neutral camp. New bulls, on the other hand, are emerging only slowly. While this may prolong the current upward momentum, it is more reminiscent of a bear market rally than a new bull market. We measure further interesting data in the OCI for equities and bonds, as well as in the currency segment and for gold.

Trump-o-meter at all-time low
The disenchantment with Donald Trump and the impact of his policies on the stock market is reaching a new dimension. Compared to his first term in office, the incumbent US president is starting with enormous advance praise. There is nothing left of the Trump euphoria in autumn. The barometer falls to an all-time low! The initial shock on the stock market subsides somewhat, but the damage (to confidence) that has already been done is enormous. This is reflected in the bond and FX sectors.

All bearish. But is that enough?
What a week! Above all, the US customs announcement has massively shaken the stock markets and caused a crash-like downward movement. This dynamic is also very evident in the current sentix sentiment data, where we are seeing massive swings in short and medium-term expectations for US equities. But there are also significant distortions in the currency area. We are measuring another extraordinary data situation for bonds.

Increasing risks in gold
The seasonally positive month of April for equities is just around the corner. So far, this has not lured investors out of their reserves. The equity bias remains depressed despite falling share prices. Bargain hunters are in short supply. On the bond side, professionals are continuing to add to their positions, although they are not developing any confidence. The risks for US bonds and precious metals are increasing significantly. Only EUR/USD is showing positive signs: underlying confidence has risen to its highest level since January 2021.

US equity pessimism points to opportunities in April
Last week saw a certain degree of stabilization in US equities, although the chart picture is not yet particularly convincing. At least basic confidence has improved slightly and the number of bulls in the sentiment remains low, which is a rather positive sign statistically. And yet the TD-Index shows why investors should remain cautious.

Trump weighs on sentiment
From celebrated beacon of hope to pariah, and all in just three months. After the US election in November, the reintroduced ‘Trump policy sentiment’ recorded an all-time high. Investors were counting on a business-friendly president. Now it has crashed to an all-time low. The view of the US is as bad as it has rarely been, while at the same time investors are celebrating the ‘debt orgy’ in Germany. A divergence that should not last.

Crash with announcement
Last week saw a rare sentiment signal: Equity sentiment between the US and Germany is doing a real balancing act. Rarely before has there been such a wide divergence! The crash on the bond market also made a big impression on investors. The weakness came with an announcement. Unfortunately, the data points to further trouble ahead. Things are looking better for gold, even if the high level of overconfidence suggests that consolidation will continue.

Cautious reaction after the Bundestag election
The reaction of investors after the German Bundestag election is now available: The medium-term bias for German equities has increased slightly, but still remains below the zero line at -4 percentage points. Sentiment remains depressed at the same time, so it should be noted that the potential new German government has not yet generated any optimism among investors. Instead, the first loser of the election is emerging: bonds are being penalised.

The equity sentiment cools significantly
The mood on the stock markets is cooling. Particularly in Germany, investors even have a touch of fear before the election weekend. Nevertheless, from a sentiment perspective, this does not yet represent a buying opportunity. In any case, investors view German government bonds as the losers in the upcoming government policy in Germany.
