STOCK MARKET BEARISH -- SHORT -- CAUTION

Keybot the Quant flips to the short side a short time ago at SPX 2767. Markets obviously remain erratic and unstable. The bulls were on easy street but the stock market deteriorated after the US-China trade deal is looking like smoke and mirrors. The yield curve is inverting spooking investors. It is one heck of a turnaround.

The banks are in an all-out free fall down -3% as a sector. Utilities catapult higher. The bulls are going to need to push the SPX back above 2752 to steady the ship. Price is at the lows of the day as this message is typed at 1:37 PM EST. The SPX is at 2713 a 77-point drubbing, down -2.8% on the day; a mini-crash.

On the last trade that lasted about a week, the Keybot computer program gains +1.7% and the actual trading gains +3.5%. The S&P 500 benchmark is up +3.5% on the year with only 16 days trading remaining in the year. The algo program is up +7% this year and the actual trading is up over +19%. Keybot is a smart robot. US markets are closed tomorrow for the funeral of former President George HW Bush; Bush 41. Keybot exits SSO and enters SDS remaining in the 2x ETF's. The beat goes on.
