Wall Street Bazaar: S&P Futures, Treasury Yields, and Gold Cycles – Key Market Insights and Trends 12/12/24

The Wall Street Bazaar is a chaotic blend of sounds, colors, and unpredictability, much like the behavior of the S&P 500 futures. Recently, the hourly chart of the ES 24-hour S&P futures has been anything but ordinary—showing a wild surge followed by a period of stagnation. As of 6 AM ET, the price hovers near the 22-hour moving average band, representing a key inflection point for traders. If this support holds, we could see a rally toward the 6087-6092 range. However, if the support fails, a potential consolidation or slight decline may follow, with trend support levels at 6065 and 6045.

Meanwhile, the macroeconomic backdrop is influenced by significant Treasury bill paydowns, providing excess liquidity that may flow into stocks and bonds. While the Treasury coupon issue faces some challenges, the bond market remains on the sidelines as stocks benefit from marginal liquidity growth. The S&P 500 cycles are also pointing upward, though a high is imminent, suggesting a possible shift soon.
