1. Market Weather

Indicator Level RSI 30D Chg Signal Note
VOO (S&P 500) $622.00 43 -2.3% Slow bleed Below SMA20 ($629). Weak-down trend.
QQQM (Nasdaq) $250.24 49 -0.9% Outperforming At SMA20. Tech = new defensive. QQQ > VOO widens.
VIXY (VIX) $32.68 62 +24.5% FEAR ELEVATED Down -4.1% 7D (slight easing) but still +24.5% 30D. No all-clear.
GLD (Gold) $476.25 56 +1.8% Safe haven +21.1% 3M. Structural uptrend. Above all SMAs.
TLT (Bonds) $88.28 46 +0.6% Neutral Above SMA50. Orderly. Not surging.
EEM (EM) $58.68 45 -4.7% Fading Pulled back from overbought. Oil/dollar pain for importers.
USO (Oil) $107.93 81 +36.8% PARABOLIC Iran/Hormuz crisis. +55.9% 3M. Do NOT chase.

One-liner: Stagflation is the word. Oil parabolic (USO RSI 81) is crushing housing (ITB RSI 27), life sciences (DHR RSI 29), and consumer discretionary (XLY RSI 39). Gold works, QQQ > VOO, and VIXY is slightly easing (-4.1% 7D) but still elevated. Portfolio gave back gains -- CRSP reversed -11.6% in one week, INTU pulled back from +21.5% to +13%. Two new buys (DHR, LOW) add quality at oversold levels.

Overall: Stagflation pullback hit all strategies. Claude-trader remains leader at +2.81% but slipped from +3.12%. CRSP reversed hard (-11.6% 7D, from +14.6% to -2.7%), dragging YOLO and trader. Bench-signals got its FIRST WINNER (NFLX +20.0%) but also its 5th loss (AFRM -19.7%). Net realized for bench-signals: 1W/5L, -$800. YOLO went from near-breakeven to -0.81% as CRSP/WDAY/ORCL gave back gains.

8. What Changed (03/11 vs 03/10)

  • Stagflation regime intensified. Oil went parabolic (USO RSI 81, +36.8% 30D), crushing housing (ITB RSI 27), life sciences tools (DHR RSI 29, MDT RSI 27, TMO RSI 33), and consumer discretionary. This is no longer a "slow grind lower" -- it is a coordinated stagflation selloff driven by the Iran/Hormuz crisis.

  • CRSP reversed -11.6% in one week -- the biggest single-position swing across all strategies. Was +14.6% approaching +20% target, now -2.7%. YOLO was $1.97 from taking profit. Lesson forming: consider partial profit-taking at +15% on volatile positions.

  • bench-signals scored its FIRST WIN: NFLX +20.0%. After 5 consecutive losses (WDAY, MDB, HIMS, ASAN, AFRM), the signal tracker finally closed a winner. Held 28 days from $80.78 to $96.94. Record now 1W/5L, net -$800 realized. The system works -- it just needs time.

  • Life sciences tools entered coordinated selloff. DHR RSI 29, MDT RSI 27, TMO RSI 33, A RSI 31 -- all declining together in sector-wide de-rating. This is rare and historically a strong entry signal. Bought DHR across strategies. TMO (-8.9%) is now closest to stop in claude-trader.

  • Portfolio gave back gains across all strategies. Claude-trader dropped from +3.12% to +2.81%. YOLO from -0.33% to -0.81%. Momentum from -0.15% to -0.11% (actually slightly improved). Bench-signals from +1.8% open to -0.2% open. Broad market pullback.

  • Two new buys: DHR and LOW. DHR (RSI 29) is a rare extreme for a mega-cap quality compounder -- bought across trader, momentum, and bench-signals. LOW (RSI 30) is the ONLY oversold stock with golden cross intact -- bought across trader and momentum. Skipped NKE (death cross), BNTX (needs research), CRSP add (death cross).

  • ESTC and PINS approaching bench-signals stops. ESTC at -12.1% is only 3.3% from -15% stop. PINS at -12.0%. These could be the 6th and 7th losses if they don't stabilize. Meanwhile LEGN surged to +13.7% from RSI 8 capitulation -- the recovery thesis working on the biotech side.
