The US stock market opened Sunday, March 8, 2020, dramatically lower.\u00a0 Oil collapsed 25% to near $30.\u00a0 Gold shot higher to levels just above $1700.\u00a0 All of the major US indexes were lower than 5%.\u00a0 As of this morning, the US major indexes are lower by 6.40%, and oil down 23%. Bonds are set to open 7-8% higher at this time.<\/p>\n

As mentioned in yesterday\u2019s update, we could see metals and miners get hit with margin calls, and silver took a beating last night down over 5%, and miners are down 5% in pre-market, so things could get uglier yet.<\/p>\n

The war on oil has officially started. To me, it\u2019s a typical bully\/bad guy move. When everyone is bleeding, and in trouble like the financial markets, everyone\u2019s mental state, and our health, the true bullies and bad guys (sharks) come out of the woodwork. Russia is being difficult and will keep production high for oil; the Saudis are giving out hug discounts on oil and jacking up their production to flood the market with their oil and take as much of the market share possibly. When blood is in the water, the sharks attack.<\/p>\n

This oil war is going to devastate the USA and Canadian oil sectors and businesses if the price of oil trades between $20-35 per barrel, which I think is what will happen and could last a few years.<\/p>\n

The US futures for stock hit a circuit breaker and halted futures trading of the Indexes once a 5% drop took place, but ETF and regular stocks will continue to trade. The next round of circuit breakers are only during regular trading hours and was implemented after the May 10, 2010, flash crash.<\/p>

This new set of circuit breakers have never been hit before which are:
\nA drop of 7% stock halt for 15 minutes.
\nA drop of 13% stocks halt for 15 minutes.
\nA drop of 20% stocks halt for the rest of the session.<\/p>\n

This is a huge breakdown in the US markets and indicates much greater weakness within the global markets and further concern that the COVID-19 virus may continue to disrupt the US and European markets (as well as others).<\/p>\n

The potential that multiple billion-dollar disruptions in the US and other foreign markets, including travel, leisure, autos, hospitality, and many others, may see a continued decline in sales and incomes over the next 6+ months.\u00a0 We don\u2019t believe we will truly understand the total scope of this COVID-19 virus event until possibly well after July 2020.<\/p>\n

The crazy part is I\u2019m in a little secluded town in Canada, and people are starting to panic and buy food and toilet paper for their bunker stash. Almost everyone I talked to this weekend while out snowboarding has been affected by manufacturing, trade show cancellations, travel restrictions, etc..\u00a0 We are in a full out global crisis that seems to affect everyone in some way no matter their location, occupation, or business.<\/p>\n

There will be some great opportunities to find and execute incredible trading opportunities \u2013 yet the risks are very high right now for volatility and price rotation.\u00a0 Think of the markets like a body of water in a severe storm.\u00a0 The waters are very choppy, unstable, and chaotic \u2013 just like the markets.<\/p>\n

Unless you have the right information, skills, and vehicle to navigate these waters, there is a very high probability that a dangerous outcome could happen.\u00a0I closed out our last position on Friday with our TLT bond trade for a 20.07% profit and we are 100% cash watching this market VS trying to survive it.<\/p>\n

Right now, Cash is king.
\nWaiting for proper setups and understanding risks is critical.\u00a0 Timing your entries and targets is critical.\u00a0 Learning to stay away from excessive risk is essential.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll scan the markets for you and find the best opportunities that set up over the next week.<\/p>\n

We appreciate your loyalty and want to continue to deliver superior analysis and research.\u00a0 Please be well aware that the current market environment is very dangerous for traders.\u00a0 The VIX recently touched above 50.\u00a0 We believe it could reach levels above 75~90 still.\u00a0 These are incredible levels for the VIX.<\/p>\n
