Weak bias is a problem
The strategic bias for equities in the eurozone has fallen to its lowest level since July 2020, with investors interpreting the price recovery in the indices as an opportunity to reduce their positions. As pessimism in sentiment has given way at the same time, price risks are emerging on the stock market. The situation is reversed on the U.S. bond market, where countercyclical buy signals are increasingly appearing. Crude oil prices could fall and thus provide relief for inflation fears.

Investor irritation increases
Early start or false start? That is the question currently being asked of Euroland equities, because the strength of stocks before the March futures expiry on Friday is unusual. Usually, stocks rise after the expiry into the "strong" April month. It is unlikely to be that easy in 2022. For just as unusual as the seasonal pattern is the sentix data situation at present. The signs point to continued unrest.

Sentiment still supports
After the very negative sentiment extreme on the stock market, prices were able to recover somewhat. Sentiment remains depressed, but this creates opportunities in line with a contrarian sentiment strategy. However, the weak development in the strategic bias weighs on the picture. Meanwhile, greater risks are also indicated for gold bulls. Here, too, there is an unfavourable development in fundamental confidence.

Investors in panic mode
The past week saw a significant rise in investor fears of a widening of the Ukraine conflict and major economic dislocations. We measure a multitude of all-time highs or lows in our data! At the same time, investors have also reduced their portfolio risks. Professionals are similarly cautiously positioned as they were at the time of the Corona Crash in March 2020. Will we see a similar recovery process?

Signs of life
The equity bias (here USA) sends a sign of life once again for a long time, while equity sentiment remains downbeat. At the depressed price levels, more investors are now declaring their willingness to buy stocks. The investment degrees of the institutional ones prove: The now strong underinvestment opens up clear potential for a price recovery. U.S. bonds are also showing a similar sign of life, with their bias rising significantly.

Sentiment buy signals
Sentiment on equities has deteriorated significantly over the week. For US equities, the number of bullish investors fell to the lowest level since 2017. This creates opportunities for contrarian investors, as statistically the S&P 500 rose significantly in around 75% of cases in subsequent weeks.

Fear of war and medium-term concerns
Fears of war arise! Investors are increasingly worried and also look negatively into the medium-term future: The bias for the U.S. equity market falls below the zero line even among institutional investors. The last time this situation occurred was in the midst of the Corona Crash in 2020. Energy prices in particular could be affected by an outbreak of war in Ukraine. One thing is certain: High risks for the oil price are already indicated!

Stronger Contrarian Signals for Bonds
Investors in the U.S. equity market remain fearful, volatility structurally high. Does this mean it's time to get in? Medium-term underlying confidence is weak, even reaching new 52-week lows. So far, hardly any bargain hunters are willing to go on a buying spree at this level. The rise in interest rates is weighing too heavily on the mind. However, we are measuring increased contrarian signals in bonds in particular. The EUR/USD bias is also on the move.

Underlying confidence continues to weigh on equities
Sentiment in equities recovered over the course of the week. We still measure a certain scepticism, which has a stabilising effect in the short term. But the basic strategic confidence remains weak. Equities are not yet back in stable waters. On the other hand, we hear a clear sentiment signal for crude oil and the EUR-USD.

Prepare, but don't buy yet!
The put-call ratio in the U.S. jumps up, sentiment tilts down. Normally, such contrary signals are a buy indication. But the strategic dimension weighs on the market, as do style preferences, which are unfavorable. The S&P should target the chart support at 4,300 points and then start a countermovement. However, whether this attempt is sustainable?
