Important developments in the weekly key reversal levels:
* Momentum (MoM) has turned down for US and Japanese stock indexes. To give you an idea, on average MoM changes direction every 6 bars, so 6 weeks for the weekly reversals. But it varies between 1 week and over 20 weeks. So, with MoM now turning down for many stock indexes, an average 6 weeks of weakness (down or sideways) can be expected.
* For bonds (TLT) the weekly MoM is turning up. TLT is not far from its bullish reversal level at 106.56
*Oil has downward MoM again, continuing its bearish tendency.

Important developments in the daily key reversal levels:
* Stock markets stay above their daily bearish reversal levels, but MoM is still to the downside, so it is better to remain cautious at this point.
* Bonds (TLT) have broken above their bullish reversal level last Thursday. Next target to watch is the weekly bullish reversal level (see above).
* Gold has broken above its daily key reversal level as well. A positive development, but it is only a bear market rally unless it gets above the weekly key reversal level.
