MTI Unchanged At 0.96

Despite a pickup in volatility across its categories, the Major Trend Index was unchanged at 0.96 using data for the week ended November 20th. The failure of the MTI to bounce in response to last week’s 3%+ market gain reinforces what we’ve been saying for more than three months: the backdrop for stocks remains a fragile one, and portfolios with the requisite flexibility should remain significantly underweight equities.
