This podcast provides the latest update and overview of our data-driven modelsthe Asbury 6 (risk management), the Correction Protection Model (wealth preservation), the SEAF Model (sector rotation), the CARP Model (relative performance), and the US vs. The World Model (global asset allocation) — which collectively determine 1) when to be invested, and 2) what to be invested in.

The Asbury 6, our Tactical risk management model, is a combination of six diverse market metrics that we have combined to look beyond the day-to-day, up-and-down noise of the stock market to determine its actual health — in much the same way as a doctor checks patients’ vital signs during an office visit to determine their baseline health. 

The “A6” is a lie detector test for the market.  It helps us to identify real, sustainable market advances or declines from computer-driven traps for investors — the latter which are often generated by algorithmic (computerized) trading which by some accounts now accounts for as much as 80% of daily market volume.

The Asbury 6, as shown below, switched back to a Positive, Risk On status on March 29th — from Negative Risk Off on February 21st.  The S&P 500 has already risen by 2% in the two market sessions since then.

  A Positive status in the “A6” indicates the market’s internal health is currently favorable for rising stock prices.

More About The Asbury 6:  The Asbury 6, updated daily in our Research Center, is a combination of six diverse market metrics that were combined to look beyond the day-to-day, up-and-down noise of the stock market to determine its real health — in much the same way as a doctor checks the patient’s vital signs during an office visit.  The “A6” helps us to identify real, sustainable market advances or declines from computer-driven traps for investors. Four or more metrics in one direction indicate a Tactical bias. The dates in each cell indicate when each individual constituent turned either positive (green) or negative (red). When all Asbury 6 are positive, market internals are the most conducive to adding equities exposure to portfolios. 

The chart below shows that the S&P 500′s recent rise from 3900 has resulted in the emergence of a bullish chart pattern, an inverse head and shoulders, that targets an additional 3.4% rise to 4250.

More broadly, the S&P 500’s ability to significantly rise from the critical 3900 area after a month of sideways indecision suggests that the market has become more confident that the index’s rise above the 200-day moving average in late January indicates a major bullish trend change — and the end of the 2022 bear market.
