US DEBT COULD BE HUGE PROBLEM IN LONG TERM!

Quantitative Easing – Recently announced they would be gradually eliminating the helping hand from the FED. This could eliminate some inflationary fears.

Hoque, Monzurul (HM) - Sholuld be same font.

Conditional Recommendation - USD

Based on my findings I would go LONG the PowerShares DB US Dollar Index Bullish Fund (UUP).

Based on economic indicators, I believe the economy is improving. With QE slowly unwinding, inflationary fears will weaken. Thus, investors will regain confidence in the dollar.

Also, the dollar catapulted to its highest level against the yen in over four years - a bullish signal.

Experts Opinion - USD

ETFtrends.com

BULLISH: “In currency markets, the dollar has been notably strong against the Japanese yen” And “Diminishing inflation expectations”

EtfGuide.com – Chad Garnes

BULLISH: On the notion that inflationist is wrong. It seems there are larger underlying factors counteracting any inflationary policies by the Federal Reserve.

Forbes – Dean Popplewell

BULLISH: On stronger fundamentals data of late, couple with ongoing Eurozone Saga.

HEDGEFUND DATA

Fund Managers Survey by Merrill Lynch revealed that almost 80% of managers hold a view that further appreciation of the US Dollar is very likely. The reading was the highest in the surveys history (inception in early 2001).

USD Stochastic – Directions

Although both %K and %D are at high levels, I can not find a definitive direction. Considering %K and %D are in unison, it’s tough to say whether this is a buy or sell indicator.

However, if the slow %K shows some resilience and cuts upwards through the %D, I will see this as bullish.

USD ADX: Strength

Considering the +DMI (38.62) is above the –DMI (26.65), prices are moving up.

However, the ADX is only at 14.56 so there isn’t a strong trend to back this bullish move right now. I believe the ADX will rise from these low levels in the near future.

ADX Value Trend Strength
0-25 Absent or Weak Trend
25-50 Strong Trend

USD RSI - Longevity

According to this chart, the RSI is at 59. I believe there is still more room for this to run.

In the last year, out of the 3 times the RSI hit my oversold indicator of 70, the U.S dollar continued its trend to 80 two of those times. I believe this could happen again.

Chief Strategist Valeria Bednarik stated that the pair "trades above 100.70, establishing a fresh high since May 2009, and with no aims of retreating any. Market players are now eying 101.44, [the] April 2009 monthly high, and dips toward 99.70/100.00, if any, will be seen as strong buying opportunities.“

Forbes

Hedging Analysis – USD: Pairs trade with gold

Definition of 'Pairs Trade‘

Matching long and short positions in two stocks of the same sector. Creates a hedge against the sector and the overall market that the two stocks are in. The hedge created is essentially a bet that you are placing on the two stocks; the stock you are long in versus the stock you are short in.

There is an intrinsic co-relation between gold prices and the US dollar

When the demand for the US dollar falls, banks as well as investors around the world invest more in gold.

2. When the US dollar appreciates, an increasing number of investors shift their investments from gold to the US dollar. This fall in demand causes the value of gold to depreciate.

Hedging Analysis – USD: Conclusion

I WILL SHORT GOLD IF THIS FALLS BELOW THE 20 DAY MOVING AVERAGE (Support) @138.90

Technical Analysis – S&P: Conclusion

Based on the technical indicators, which indicated an upward trending wind with some good strength behind it.

Even with the overbought condition, I feel that with the bullish signal continuing, this is a good time to enter the market and I will be buying into the S&P 500 Index via a SPDR S&P 500 ETF.

Expert Opinions – S&P 500

Oppenheimer & Co Inc’s chief market strategist John Stoltzfus, who last year publicly predicted that the S&P 500 would reach record levels, was in Bermuda last week as the index reached an all-time high of 1,633.70.

He believes the S&P 500 will continue to advance, and has predicted a year-end target of 1,730, or over 100 points higher than it is now.

He also feels that the current period is marked by the degree of risk balanced against opportunity in the market.

Therefore I have decided to go long with the S&P 500 Index via a SPDR S&P500 ETF, and to protect my investment against risk, I will take a short futures position.

Conditional Recommendation – S&P

On 06-MAY-2013, I took a long position with (7) SPDR S & P 500 ETFs at a cost of $162.11 x market price the current price of the index of $1614.40= $1,831,972.69 (Total value). As stated before with the current market conditions, I took a conservative approach and also on 06-may-13, I took a short futures position by selling one futures contract on the CME for $250.00 times the current market price of $1,613.30, with a total value of $403.350.00

Conditional Recommendation – S&P

On the 20th of May, I performed a mark to market check on my portfolio, which showed that the current price of my primary asset had gone up in price to 166.92 and the S&P 500 index increased to 1665.68, with a total value of $1,890,163.69 (1665.68 x 162.11(7)). So far this gives me a total profit of $58,191.00. And my hedging asset price also increased to $1,663.00 giving a total value of $415,750.00. This gives me a loss of $12,400.00. Currently, I have a total portfolio profit of $45,791.00. My Primary asset gives me a holding period return (HPR) of 76.32%, while My hedged asset gives me a HPR of -71.58%. My total portfolio HPR is 48.96%

NG ADX - Strength

After two month-plus bullish trend, D- crossed over D+ on May 2 (1) and sharply diverged.

Looked like another crossover could take place on May 17 (2), but once again diverged.

Overall trend seems to be weak and growing even weaker, presently near 20.

“Strength of Wind” - Weak

ADX Value Trend Strength
0-25 Absent or Weak Trend
25-50 Strong Trend

Technical Analysis – NG: RSI

Further evidence that bullish trend ended around May 2 (1) and market is now bearish.

Rally on May 15 (2), but quickly ended and returned near previous levels.

Could be due for another turnaround because longevity of current bearish trend seems low with levels around 42.

U.S. natgas futures end up sharply on late buying spree - Reuters, 05/17

"Futures seem to have found a bottom" after testing/holding technical support at $3.90 several times during past week.

"The weather is still a little bearish, but we managed a net gain for the week. It looks like we hit some buy stops when prices broke the $4 mark," said Steve Mosley at The SMC Report.

Many traders remain skeptical of the trend, at least until more heat arrives

Natural Gas Seen Dropping in Survey on Milder U.S. Weather - Bloomberg, 05/17

Nine of 13 analysts (69%) predict NYME NG futures will decline this week. Three (23%) said gas will advance and one was neutral.

Above-normal temperatures this week will turn lower early next week with no significant heat surges anticipated, according to Commodity Weather Group LLC.

“We have no extreme temperatures in the forecast so we are not going to need a lot of power generation,” said Gordy Elliott, a risk-management specialist at INTL FC Stone LLC in St. Louis Park, Minnesota. “We should have some bigger injections in the next three or four weeks and we should continue to see pressure in this market.”

Expert Opinions – NG

Do you agree?

For the most part, yes.

Based on the weather forecast, it doesn’t seem like anyone will have much use for natural gas at least during the next week.

My own analysis also showed support for prices slightly lower than the $3.90 predicted by analysts.

Hedging Analysis – NG: June/Aug. Futures

Hedging Analysis – NG: Commit. of Traders

Long is slightly dominant in commercial market due to more than two times as many short positions exiting the market as long positions.

Short is dominant in non-commercial market. Almost 30,000 total positions exited the market during this period, with ~60% of them being long.

Long is dominant in non-reportable market.

Analysis: many participants left the NG market last week due to uncertain conditions and/or profit taking.

Week of 5/14 to 5/22 Long % Long Short % Short
Commercial 469,043 51.25% 446,197 48.75%
Non-Commercial 336,788 46.16% 392,798 53.84%
Non-Reportable 74,374 64.35% 41,210 35.65%
Δ past week Long Short
Commercial -6,060 -13,742
Non-Commercial -18,081 -11,675
Non-Reportable 1,221 2,497

Hedging Analysis – NG: Market Analysis

Futures prices trending upward.

Long hedgers dominate commercial market.

Analysis: Contango Market

Hedging Analysis – NG: Conclusion

Long traders are marginally ahead but not dominant in commercial market.

Short traders are dominant in speculative market, in addition to recent exodus of long traders.

Strengthening basis.

Contango market.

Recommendation:

Trade a short July contract and use a Long August Futures contract to hedge exposure.

Conditional Recommendation – NG

Short term – Bearish/Stay out of the market

Weather is a major aspect of NG prices, looks like there will nothing to drive demand for weeks

No sign of production slowing or supply dwindling

Would recommend staying out of the market until electricity demands due to summer cooling pick up.

If you must trade in the near future, I would recommend going short on front month contract and hedging with a contract that expires later like August or September.

Long term – Bullish

NG is cheap, abundant, relatively clean

Process for extracting natural gas is efficient and becoming more so

May even replace gasoline in the future

Conditional Recommendation – NG
