2-Year Business Cycles Matter in This Market

Some of you might have already heard us speak about the monthly moving averages or have read our commentary about their significance.

On Monday, we asked, “What if the trading range top at 4200 we have been calling for in the S&P 500 turns out to be… the top?” Then, on Fox Business’ Making Money with Charles Payne, I discussed the 2-year business cycle.

Today, we show you the charts on how that business cycle looks. A 2-year or 23-month moving average in blue is at the very least, interesting.

What has happened in the last 2 years? A bullish run in 2021 based on easy money. Inflation running hotter than most expected. The banks caught off guard… and by 2022… party over.

So, that really begs the question of why this year’s 23-month moving average is one of the most important indicators for equities.

Here is the Russell 2000 (IWM). Even cleaner perhaps. As Granddad of the Economic Modern Family, a break and close over the 23-month MA would be enough evidence to believe in a soft landing and good news for the economy and market. A failure to pierce that MA means chop. A break of the also majorly important 80-month MA (green) that represents a 6-7 year business cycle-bad… very bad.

In October, IWM held the 80-month and got us believing that a recession would be averted. Now, the market literally hangs in the balance between a longer term and a shorter-term business cycle.

Trust the charts and know your timeframe.
