| | Lead Stories | | Hong Kong's Stock Market Is on a Wild Ride; Is it a bear market or a bull market? The only certainty is volatility. Cao Li, Rebecca Feng and Matthew Thomas - The Wall Street Journal Hong Kong entered a bull market earlier this monthâat least according to one common definition. The city's benchmark Hang Seng Index surged 25% in the first half of November, clearing the 20% hurdle that is traditionally used to define a bull market. The sharp run-up from its trough on Oct. 31âwhen the index touched its lowest level since April 2009âwas fueled by signs that China is starting to shift away from its strict zero-Covid policy that has hamstrung the world's second-largest economy. Moves by the Chinese government to ease pressure on its limping property sector also gave investors reason for optimism. /jlne.ws/3tPi5Fc
Stock Market Outlook: 2023 Will See 'Extreme Volatility' & Boom-Bust Inflation Jennifer Sor - Business Insider Investors should be prepared for "extreme volatility" in 2023, as the US economy steers through 1940s-style boom-bust inflation, according to Morgan Stanley chief investment officer Mike Wilson. "We don't think it's the 70s, we think it's more of the 40s, where it's a boom-bust," the top stock strategist said in an interview with CNBC on Tuesday. He compared the current inflation cycle to the demand-driven inflation that took root in the economy after World War II. /jlne.ws/3tYjZmZ

| | | Strategy | | The Curse of Calling the Rally Helene Meisler - TheStreet They say the technical analyst's curse is to want one more rally and, more often than not, that one more rally never materializes. Could that be the case this week? Sure. But rather than focus on that possibility, let's go back to the discussion of the Volatility Index. It fell on Monday. Yes, despite that, the S&P 500 was red on the day the Volatility Index was down, and not marginally. You would have to squint really hard to see it actually made a lower-low than two weeks ago, but the point is that the VIX came down. And along with the VIX falling, the Daily Sentiment Index (DSI) for the VIX fell. It is now at 21. /jlne.ws/3ACiIpB
