By Jeff Clark, editor, Market Minute Imagine if someone threw the stock market into a time capsule and set the coordinates back in time to January 29, 2020. Actually, you don’t have to imagine it… Because that’s what seems to have happened. Conditions aren’t just “sort of” similar to this time last year… They’re identical. Recommended Link | Venture Capital's Biggest Bet for 2021 Venture capital investment in biotechnology just hit the highest levels in history. Forbes is calling it “a record breaking funding tsunami.” That’s already delivering record breaking profits… A PayPal founder pocketed $1.4 billion by backing one biotech. The original investors in Apple cashed-in on three (3!) billion-dollar biotech deals. And one biotech just made Jeff Bezos $4.1 billion richer Former Fortune 500 tech executive Jeff Brown has created this presentation to explain why. It reveals how a controversial move by the FDA made investing in biotech more lucrative than ever… How it pumped $1.2 trillion into the sector… And one company he believes will profit the most as this FDA move continues to flood biotech with trillions more. | | -- | Take a look at this chart of the S&P 500… After a relentless, three-month-long rally, the S&P sold off some last week. It finished the final trading day of January right on its 50-day moving average (MA – blue line). That’s exactly how it finished in January of last year, as well. And, if that isn’t odd enough, all of the various technical conditions at the bottom of the chart look exactly the same as last year too. That’s weird, right? But, hold on. Take a look at this chart of the Volatility Index (VIX)… While the VIX is trading at a higher level than where it was at last year, the price action is the same. The VIX spent two months chopping back and forth inside a tight trading range. Then, it exploded higher last week. The VIX closed above its upper Bollinger Band (BB) on Wednesday. Then, it closed back inside the bands on Thursday – generating the first “buy” signal of 2021. But, that buy signal failed when the VIX closed above its upper BB again on Friday. So, now we’re setting up for a rare double-buy signal from the VIX. Free Trading Resources Have you checked out Jeff's free trading resources on his website?

Finally, check out these charts of the McClellan Oscillators (NAMO and NYMO)… Both of these momentum indicators closed Friday below their lower BBs, and below the -60 level, which indicates an oversold condition. They also closed exactly where they closed at the end of January last year. So, what does this all mean? Well, there’s good news and bad news… A $49 investment could lead to you making up to 172X on your money The good news is the stock market is now oversold enough that traders can start looking for a bounce. And, it won’t take too much buying pressure to lead the market to new all-time-highs just as it did last February. The bad news, of course, is that if the similarities to last year continue, then the next rally is likely to create negative divergence on all the various momentum indicators and set the stage for a much more significant decline later this month. Because that’s also exactly what happened last year. Best regards and good trading, Jeff Clark P.S. Spotting momentum indicators and understanding technical analysis usually intimidates most traders.
