Tom Lee on the 4 Most Important Market Indicators

  • Josh here - I really enjoyed talking with Tom Lee, former JPMorgan strategist and the founder of Fundstrat Research, about how he uses the evidence to understand what's happening in the markets.
    Tom cites four indicators he uses to explain current trends and think about where markets and the economy might be headed. Among them, credit spreads, demographics and volatility.
    Tom also talks about his bullish stance and why he isn't terribly worried about the yield curve inversion we saw this summer.

I heard Cramer give the same sentiment about how 2021 would be a big bull year because and cited these demographics and the awakening of the retail investor and it's great to hear that the data that backs his point of view up.

    Thanks for this interview! Tom, you really provide some gold there! Simple indicators that are easy to follow and I appreciate to see a contrarian. Just one point wasn't discussed. What about the high SP500 level in terms of PE ratios and in terms of the "Buffet indicator" of market cap to GDP ratio. While the US might not fall into an outright recession, doesn't the US equity market seem overvalued taking these two indicators into consideration?

    Enjoy all your videos Josh, but especially like the discussions with researchers, strategists and fellow investors. Hearing different ideas and thought processes is educational. I like hearing ideas, especially when I don't necessarily agree. Food for thought and I'm a big fan of food. As an example, 'China might be Japan in 20 years'. Hmmm...
    BTW... The little chuckle at the 14:30 was very appropriate. Could there be more layers to that analysis...

      He is usually on cnbc. And apparently recently ha has become a CNBC contributor.
      He has said many times, I know it’s hard for anyone to believe, but S&P will hit 3400 within 4 months, it was around 2500 then, and of course it did hit that number, then a few times he repeated saying, we will hit 4200-4400 by the summer. It looks like he was right again and we might get there too.

    Josh, Tom, Great video. Question for you: Should you not include the buyback yield combined with the equity yield when comparing it to the spread of Junk Bonds and treasuries. S&P 500 dividend yield is 1.81%, but the buyback and dividend yield is closer to 6%. That would be greater than spread and be a negative signal for equity.

    Ignoring the "false" yield curve inversion of 1998, if you look at the major substantial inversions (to -50bps or more) of the last 20 years i.e. Aug 2000, Nov 2006 (and now Aug 2019), the stock market PEAKED within +/- a handful of months either side of that (i.e. so we have AT MOST another month or two maximum if we have not peaked already) and then the stock market subsequently FELL for a period of at least 18-24 months by at least 40%-60% i.e. a CRASH as the yield curve re-steepend over a period of 2-4 years following the trough to +350bps. We troughed in August in the yield curve at -50bps....we have already steepened back to +40bps in the space of 2-3 months.Over the next 2 years or so that will go back to the top of the range of +350bps and the stock market is going to lose at least 40% of its value if not a lot more. You guys are just PERMABULL charlatans and woe betide those following your "advice"
