Under the surface, the US equity market looks stronger than before...
This might be counterintuitive to many investors who got hurt this week on their large-cap growth positions, the market looks actually healthier than it was a few weeks ago...As highlighted by the great J-C Parets, there are plenty of new all-time highs everywhere: DJ Industrial average, S&P 500 equal-weight, Mid-cap 400, etc. A mentioned by J-C Parets, we just saw the most amount of stocks on the NYSE above their 200 day moving average that we've seen this entire bull market. We also saw the most amount of stocks on the NYSE and the Nasdaq hitting new 52-week highs that we've seen this whole bull market. You can go sector by sector and you'll see. Source: J-C Parets

This can be seen in the ratio of the Benchmark Index Dax to the Mid-Cap-Index MDax, which hit its highest level since 2011. This could be because the economy isn't doing great, and small companies are more affected by this. The Purchasing Managers' Index for Germany dropped below make-or-break 50 this week, highlighting Germany's economic challenges. Source: HolgerZ, Bloomberg

India quickly catches up to China as the world’s largest emerging market.
Indian stocks comprise nearly 20% of the MSCI Emerging Markets index, while China has dropped to a quarter from 40% in 2020. The narrowing gap has become one of the biggest issues for investors in emerging markets this year as they debate whether to put capital into an already red-hot Indian market, or into Chinese stocks that are relatively cheap, but are being hit by an econ slowdown. https://lnkd.in/ddkSqFy5 Source: FT, Charlie Bilello

One for the Bulls... As shown below, during this tech pullback, forward 12-months EPS in tech has actually ticked higher.
So you could argue that this is mostly a positioning and sentiment pullback, especially in tech... Source: Bloomberg, RBC
