This Week in Trend: A Sea of Blue with the VIX Futures Tamed
In this edition of This Week in Trend, we explore a dramatic shift towards stability as volatility recedes and market movements offer new opportunities for trend followers. The VIX futures plunged by -18.15%, signaling a sharp reduction in market uncertainty, while most asset classes showed positive gains, leaving currencies as the only slight decliner.
Key highlights include a strong rebound in the Nasdaq 100, surging by +4.32%, and a remarkable +19.42% rise in Palladium, driven by robust industrial demand. Commodities like Platinum and Silver followed with impressive gains, adding momentum to the metals sector. Energy markets remained resilient, with Crude Oil holding steady despite broader global slowdowns.
Trend followers will find opportunities in both the bullish outliers and bearish moves. Canola and Ethanol experienced notable declines due to improving supply conditions, presenting potential bearish trends for those monitoring agricultural markets.
With the Trend Barometer holding steady at 50 and the SG Trend Index showing positive month-to-date gains, the outlook for trend-following strategies remains optimistic. As market conditions stabilize and the fear gauge cools, now is the perfect time to align your strategies and capitalize on emerging market trends.
