Our equity/bond model - This long-term reliable investing model provides investors with simple decision making in the markets:

VIX – volatility index

VIX is down and markets are up.

Daily fluctuation on the VIX and the markets can be extreme in current conditions, therefore, monitoring the monthly chart provides us with the big picture and not get caught up and distracted by the wild short term price action.

The major correction will not be over until VIX turns down on the monthly chart.

Prices have finally filled the gap this week.

Will it become resistance, or will we see a new high soon?

Summary

Our benchmark S&P500 is on a long-term sell signal, a major correction is in progress.

The current investing model remains in favor of bonds, therefore, investors should continue to overweigh with long bonds or bond ETFs for safety over growth.
