The ratio hit the 2014 highs earlier this year at (1), which in time could reflect that a double top took place. Right now it is way too early to confirm this. Since hitting 2014 highs at (1) the ratio has been a little soft, nothing dramatic for sure.
Three weeks ago the ratio tested lower highs again at (2), where it created a small bearish reversal pattern and then started to turn a little lower. This week the ratio so far has created a sizable bearish reversal pattern (bearish wick), reflecting weakness in stocks and strength in bonds
Joe Friday Just The Facts– Ratio is testing 1-year rising support this week and so far support is support until broken. If support would give way, could suggest further weakness in stocks and relative strength in bonds.
