Why Is Everyone in the Dark About Utilities?
For weeks I heard from folks on television that the market was bearish because Utes were leading. The Utes typically top out before the major indexes do, so they are a warning sign when they start to go down, not when they are going up and making new highs. Wednesday the Utes lost 2%, which is their biggest daily loss since January.

A China trade deal could cancel Federal Reserve interest-rate cuts
A new high for the U.S. stock market before a trade deal with China is completed was a surprise, even though we had another “90% done” quote from the Trump administration this week. The moral here is never to underestimate the ability of the Twitter account of the U.S. president to create a short squeeze in stocks, particularly if the Federal Reserve has already more or less promised that a July federal funds rate cut is coming. Despite the weakening of manufacturing indexes in the U.S. to 10-year lows, it is rather telling that if one were to compare the largest junk bond ETF by assets, the iShares IBoxx $ High Yield Corporate Bond ETF (HYG) with the largest stock ETF, the SPDR S&P 500 SPDR (SPY) one would see similar strong performance.

Trump threatens Vietnam, which has been benefiting from U.S. tariffs on China
One of the critiques of the Trump administration’s tariff policy on China is that while it raises the cost of doing business in one low-cost country, it just pushes multinationals to do business in another. Now, President Donald Trump is saying he might go after Vietnam as well.
