Great charts and analysis Scott. It's especially instructive that the 34 BOP shows decline in both periods, but the 21 BOP diverged last year but has failed to do so this year.
I'm getting a "not yet" inkling from a different time and place.
The top slot in my momentum correlations has been taken over by 8-27-1990. This corresponds to one of the August periods mentioned in an earlier thread. The SPX declined into October that year with the Mideast a major player. Also we were in recession beginning in mid-July, although it wasn't confirmed by BLS until 1992. I am not committed to our current situation and market being like the comparable 1990 period. It's just one scenario of what might happen.
Despite this week's late lift-off, the projection from my somewhat unreliable R2 process has shifted to flat (albeit with a fair amount of variability) for the next few weeks. It was about 60% positive before. Don't know what will really happen. Again, I don't do the quants as a forecast...only to get an idea of what the possibilities are. It tends to diminish excess enthusiasm or pessimism (of which I have bunches ).
