Will Bonds be a Key Bear Market Tell??? Since maximum fear in the financial markets tends to create demand for safer-haven bonds, the chart of long-term Treasuries (TLT) should be helpful from a risk-assessment perspective. If stocks morph into a bear market in the coming days, weeks, and months, the odds are extremely high TLT will break above the upper blue trendline (toward the green arrow). As of 2:05 pm ET on Wednesday, January 6, TLT remains near a “possible resistance” zone. We also must respect the possibility of a Fed-induced 1994-like event, marked by a selloff in both stocks and bonds. The TNX is sitting on it's 200 DMA...... Obviously, the bond market is not leading other markets and for Govy bond traders ..... it has not been like the old days.
