Investors Weekly Update

Our equity/bond model - This long-term reliable investing model provides investors with simple decision making in the markets:

• When the model favors stocks, investors should overweigh in equities for maximum growth.
• When the model favors bonds, investors should overweigh in bonds for safety.

Our benchmark S&P500 is on long-term buy signal.

Oil sector is on long-term sell signal.

Gold sector is on long-term buy signal.

VIX – volatility index

VIX is now up and markets are down.

Since 2010, spikes in the VIX have been buying opportunities for the long-term, will this time be different?

Summary

The long-term signal remains on buy at month end.

However, the current investing model favors bonds, therefore, investors should continue to overweigh with long bonds or bond ETFs for safety over growth.
