Market is Close to a Winter/Fall Mix Temp. is still -100 but this could change in a day or so to -50 as a growth indicator is right on the line with momentum to break positive. If both growth indicators turn positive, while the inflation indicators remain negative, this would produce a full fall season with a temp of zero. Spring starts at any positive temp. To enter spring the market has to maintain both a positive growth and positive inflation outlook. Moving from winter to fall to spring, the portfolio will shift from IEF UST to JUNK.
