US stocks reversed early gains overnight with all 11 sectors closing lower while Energy names underperformed the tech Sector for a change. As we mentioned earlier and in previous missives US investors are extremely bearish as they key their view from bond yields and the influential tech stocks. We are “happyish” to maintain a contrarian stance anticipating a squeeze higher believing the market has positioned itself well ahead of the yield / inflation curve i.e. a few weeks consolidation could easily see a strong bounce in the FAANG’s et al but as we’ve witnessed with Netflix (NFLX US) the market has zero tolerance towards bad news by stocks priced for growth.
