1 cmgwealth.com Trade Signals Short-term Sentiment Says Buy, Trend Evidence Positive, Bonds are a Different Story S&P 500 Index 2101 By Steve Blumenthal March 18, 2014 A quick summary review of the charts provided below: The market s trend evidence remains positive. Daily investor sentiment reached an extreme pessimism reading which is short-term bullish for stocks. The most recent correction may have run its course. With the trend positive, I remain in the buy the dips camp. The Zweig Bond Model and our CMG Managed High Yield Bond Program both remain in a sell signal suggesting short-term bond exposure is appropriate. Included in this week s Trade Signals: Cyclical Equity Market Trend: The Primary Trend Remains Bullish for Stocks Volume Demand Continues to Better Volume Supply: Bullish for Stocks Weekly Investor Sentiment Indicator: NDR Crowd Sentiment Poll: Extreme Optimism (short-term Neutral for stocks) Daily Trading Sentiment Composite: Extreme Pessimism (short-term Bullish for stocks) The Zweig Bond Model: The Cyclical Trend for Bonds has turned Bearish Cyclical Equity Market Trend: The Primary Trend Remains Bullish for Stocks The active signal is highlighted in yellow. The historical performance statistics are highlighted in orange. See important disclosures at the bottom of this report.
2 Big Mo follows a weight of evidence approach to determine the market s cyclical trend. Click here to see How I Think About Big Mo. Click here for NDR disclosure information. 13/34-Week EMA Trend Chart: Cyclical Bullish Trend for Stocks
3 Following is a closer look at the S&P 500 via the ETF SPY 2006 to present. Click here to see How I think about the 13/34-Week Exponential Moving Average. In summary, both Big Mo (Momentum) and the 13/34-Week EMA suggest that the market remains in a cyclical bull market (up trending) state. I believe trend is most important: therefore, buy the dips (on extreme pessimism) as long as the 13/34-Week Blue EMA line is above the Red EMA line and own equities (but hedged as valuations are high, the market bull is aged; thus overall equity market risk is high). Volume Demand Continues to Better Volume Supply Bullish (last signal yellow circle)
4 The yellow highlight in the upper left shows the S&P 500 Index % Gain per annum when the model is on a buy signal. Also noted is the market s % gain per annum when the model is on a sell signal and gain/annum with 89.5% profitable long trades (orange arrows). Demand continues to be stronger than selling supply. While no single indicator will ever be perfect, the long-term historical buy and sell signals based on measuring volume demand minus volume supply has done a pretty good job at identifying market turning points. Let s watch this chart closely. Investor Sentiment : NDR Crowd Sentiment Poll: Extreme Optimism (Neutral for Stocks)

6 Next, let s take a look at the bond market. The Zweig Bond Model: SELL Signal Cyclical Bull Trend for Bonds Remains Bearish
7 Historical performance is summarized in the table on the bottom left. The yellow highlight shows the current Signal (orange arrow) for the strategy and the historical performance when on that signal (the model was originally established by Martin Zweig and Ned Davis from Ned Davis Research in 1986 performance reflected is hypothetical). The original model had four rules. A fifth rule was added post 2008 to capture the fact that corporate bonds could decline even in a declining interest rate environmen (the 2008/09 credit crisis). It is a 50-day moving average trend indicator that may help capture such risk. We worked with NDR to create a daily / tradable version of the model that we could share with our advisor clients. Given the growth in ETFs, we took the buy and sell signals and ran our performance analysis using the Barclays Aggregate Bond Total Return Index (which serves as a broad proxy for the U.S. bond market). The blue line in the chart shows the growth of $100 since April 1, 1967 in comparison to the black line which is the growth of the Barclays Aggregate Bond Total Return Index. The table at the bottom left compares the performance of the model to buying and holding the Barclays Aggregate Bond Market Total (TR) Return Index. A proxy for the Agg Bond Index is the ishares Barclays Aggregate Bond Fund ETF symbol AGG. AGG seeks to track the Aggregate Bond Market TR Index. On sell signals, a short-term bond ETF may be used to reduce the interest rate risk. It is a pure tactical trend following model. This is not a recommendation to buy any security or invest following this strategy as I have no knowledge of your personal investment goals, risks tolerances and objectives. The idea is to show there are ways which may help you protect against a period of sharply rising interest rates (an environment that is unfavorable to bond holdings). Of course, past performance guarantees cannot predict or guarantee future performance. See important disclosures at the bottom of this research letter.
8 Click here for notes on How To Track The Zweig Bond Model on your own. For new readers: Given the historically low yield on bonds, I believe it is important to understand what happens to bonds when interest rates rise. Bonds simply do not provide the same yield benefit to portfolios and the risk that rates normalize (move higher) is real. The next chart shows the risk and return benefit. This is why I believe bond allocations should be tactically managed today. The Zweig Bond Model may help you stay in sync wit the major trend. Shorten maturities on sell signals and lengthen maturities on buy signals. Also consider relative strength based tactical fixed income strategies that have the ability to move to various fixed income ETFs. Why Having a Risk Focused Process is Important (as it relates to your Fixed Income exposure): Interest Rate Gain/Loss Per Every 1% Interest Rate Move Process: From an investment management perspective, I ve followed and written about trend and investor sentiment for many years. I find that reviewing various sentiment, trend and other historically valuable rules based indicators each week helps me to stay balanced and disciplined in allocating to the various risk sets that are included within a broadly diversified total portfolio solution. My objective is to position in line with the equity and fixed income market s primary trends. I believe risk management is paramount in the long-term investment process. When to hedge, when to become more aggressive, etc. Trade Signals started after a colleague asked me if I could share my thoughts with him. I have found that putting pen to paper has really helped me in my investment management process and I hope that this research is of value to you in your investment process. Thank you for your interest in this weekly post. It is appreciated! With kind regards, Steve Social Media Links: CMG is committed to setting a high standard for ETF strategists.

Philadelphia King of Prussia, PA steve@cmgwealth.com Phone Fax Provided are several links to learn more about the use of options: For hedging, I favor a collared option approach (writing out of the money covered calls and buying out of the money put options) as a relatively inexpensive way to risk protect your long-term focused equity portfolio exposure. Also, consider buying deep out o the money put options for risk protection. Please note the comments at the bottom of this Trade Signals discussing a collared option strategy to hedge equity exposure using investor sentiment extremes is a guide to entry and exit.

Hypothetical Presentations: To the extent that any portion of the content reflects hypothetical results that were achieved by means of the retroactive application of a back-tested model, such results have inherent limitations, including: (1) the model results do not reflect the results of actual trading using client assets, but were achieved by means of the retroactive application o the referenced models, certain aspects of which may have been designed with the benefit of hindsight; (2) back-tested performance may not reflect the impact that any material market or economic factors might have had on the adviser s use of the model if the model had been used during the period to actually mange client assets; and, (3) CMG s clients may have experienced investment results during the corresponding time periods that were materially different from those portrayed in the model. Please Also Note: Past performance may not be indicative of future results. Therefore, no current or prospective client should assume that future performance will be profitable, or equal to any corresponding historical index. (i.e. S&P 500 Total Return or Dow Jones Wilshire U.S Total Market Index) is also disclosed. For example, the S&P 500 Composite Total Return Index (the S&P ) is a market capitalization-weighted index of 500 widely held stocks often used as a proxy for the stock market. Standard & Poor s chooses the member companies for the S&P based on market size, liquidity, and industry group representation. Included are the common stocks of industrial, financial, utility, and transportation companies. The historical performance results of the S&P (and those of or all indices) and the model results do not reflect the deduction of transaction and custodial charges, nor the deduction of an investment management fee, the incurrence of which would have the effect of decreasing indicated historical performance results. For example, the deduction combined annual advisory and transaction fees of 1.00% over a 10 year period would decrease a 10% gross return to an 8.9% net return. The S&P is not an index into which an investor can directly invest. The historical S&P performance results (and those of all other indices) are provided exclusively for comparison purposes only, so as to provide general comparative information to assist an individual in determining whether the performance of a specific portfolio or model meets, or continues to meet, his/her investment objective(s). A corresponding description of the other comparative indices, are available from CMG upon request. It should not be assumed that any CMG holdings will correspond directly to any such comparative index. The model and indices performance results do not reflect the impact of taxes. CMG portfolios may be more or less volatile than the reflective indices and/or models. In the event that there has been a change in an individual s investment objective or financial situation, he/she is encouraged to consult with his/her investment professionals.
