Emerging Markets And Commodities Very Bullish In 2018 And 2019
There are plenty of reasons to hate both emerging and commodities markets. Both were very weak in the past. Some investors may have lost money by selling some of their commodities and/or emerging markets holdings because they were not moving while so many other sectors were strongly in green. That may be frustrating.
However, talking about being unbiased, for those who are open to see, there are huge opportunities in both markets, first and foremost because both suggest much higher prices are coming in 2018 and beyond.
If anything, the correlation between both markets is crystal clear. The chart below makes the point.
Commodities are about to break out strongly. The pattern that is unfolding is strongly bullish. Not much will stand in the way of commodities.
Because of this, and the intermarket dynamics, we also believe that emerging markets will outperform in 2018 and 2019.
The lower pane of the chart shows emerging markets (EEM ETF). They have provided leverage on commodities prices in the last 28 months.
Given our recent observation that the Great Stock Bull Market Resumes In 2018 we are convinced that it will provide a constructive environment for emerging markets as well.

As we have said many times, do not get confused by mainstream financial media. Currently, sentiment is bearish for emerging markets. This article for instance talks about Chinese trade war and negative effects on commodities, while this one suggests emerging markets are in a downturn. While there may be some fundamental aspects in those articles that may be true they are not relevant for investors.
Look at leading indicators, check the important charts and the 1% price points that really matter on charts, stay focused on intermarket dynamics, remain open and unbiased, and you will see great opportunities, like the ones in commodities and emerging markets in 2018 and beyond.
