Two of the MRI's components are in their Caution territory this week. The Relative Valuation and Divergence indexes both share this honor. Investors seem less sure of grand gains in stocks as both the number of new 52 week highs and lows rise to worrisome levels. This is taking place with an overall market that needs quarterly earnings reports to come in at strong levels to maintain valuations.



The MRI comes in at 37% suggested reserve cash for future buying. The message is that upside potential right now isn't as strong as downside risk. The MRI's Oscillator shows +5 indicating risk is on the rise.

From Value Line's "Appreciation Potential" data comes the v-Wave's review. It shows 34% suggested cash, steady from last week, but hardly in a relaxed position.



Seeing the indexes' slopes flatten out here while measured risk remains in the caution territory does give one reason to reflect on portfolio makeup and available liquidity. Everyone loves to bargain shop and liquidity is needed for that activity. Right now it's hard to find a bargain, however.

If we look at Vanguard's Growth fund divided by their Value fund, we see there's been a shift toward Value in recent times. (overall it shows this by moving downward)

Not since the terrible tariff scare last Spring have we seen this sort of move. Are investors shifting their portfolios toward Value or have they just stopped funding the Growth side? We'll keep an eye on this ratio going forward for clues about this riddle.

Value Line continues to maintain their Growth model portfolio with no changes again this week. Here's their current list:


There are some relatively high P/Es here but also some tempting lower ones, too.

Best wishes,
OAG Tom
