Subject: SPR Weekly Market Outlook | August 24–28: Outlook Remains Intact as the Market Enters a Key Inflection Point
Dear SPR Premium Subscribers,
This week, the U.S. equity market continued to move within the broader range we anticipated last week, maintaining an overall upward and sideways trading pattern. As a result, there have been no significant changes to our broader market outlook, and we continue to maintain the existing forecast.
However, the character of the weekly trend is gradually changing.
The recent upward momentum has continued to weaken, while the market has increasingly shifted toward a broader range-bound pattern. This suggests that the current upward trend is entering a maturing phase rather than developing into a strong and sustained new bullish cycle.
For this reason, we continue to expect the market to remain within a relatively broad trading range over the coming one to two weeks. The exact timing of the transition from the current upward structure into a corrective trend remains fluid, and we believe a more visible confirmation of this transition will become possible over the next one to two weeks.
At the same time, the market continues to face an important external risk factor.
The ongoing conflict between the United States and Iran continues to keep oil prices elevated, maintaining pressure on inflation expectations and creating uncertainty around the future path of interest rates. As a result, Treasury yields and inflation expectations could continue to trigger relatively rapid changes in buying and selling pressure.
This is particularly important because the current market structure remains sensitive to changes in expectations rather than being driven solely by corporate fundamentals. A sudden increase in oil prices, inflation expectations, or Treasury yields could therefore create a meaningful shift in market positioning even if there is no significant deterioration in corporate earnings or economic data.
Nevertheless, unless a major change occurs in the current supply-demand structure, our base-case scenario remains unchanged.
If the current level of buying and selling pressure is maintained without a significant deterioration, we continue to expect the weekly trend to gradually transition into a corrective phase around early September.
Following this correction, we currently anticipate that the market will begin attempting to establish a new upward trend around late September to early October.
It is important to note, however, that the possibility of the weekly trend entering the Bearish Zone remains open. Therefore, the upcoming corrective phase should not be viewed simply as a routine pullback, but rather as a period in which downside risk should be actively considered and managed.
From a strategic perspective, we believe it is preferable to avoid aggressive positioning while the market remains in this transition period. Instead, maintaining flexibility, securing profits where appropriate, and preparing for potential downside volatility may provide a more favorable risk-reward profile.
The key point at this stage is that the market has not yet confirmed a major change in the broader trend. Rather, it is approaching an important inflection point where the weakening of upward momentum, elevated oil prices, inflation concerns, and interest-rate expectations could determine the direction of the next major move.
We will continue to closely monitor these developments. As the market moves through the next one to two weeks, we expect the direction of the weekly trend to become significantly clearer, and we will provide an updated outlook if the underlying market conditions materially change.
