[] Rope a Dope Rally [View in browser]( [View in browser]( [] From the Desk of Don Yocham: [] From the Desk of Don Yocham: [] Nothing rope-a-dopes investors like a good old fashioned bear market rally. Between doubting the Federal Reserve’s resolve to fight inflation, hopes that inflation peaked, and wild but doubtful employment gains, the market had more than enough reason to ignore declining GDP figures and an inverted yield curve that absolutely screams recession. From the lows in mid-June, the S&P rose 18% through Tuesday last week, marking the second 10%-plus rally since equities turned last December. But a 10.1% annual consumer inflation print out of the U.K. and a 5.3% surge in German producer prices – that was just for July – reminded the market that surging costs will prove a headwind to consumption and investment for the foreseeable future. And this week’s central banking confab in Jackson Hole might just prove the perfect opportunity for the Fed to prove the market it really means it. With all this up and down – down 18%, up 12%, down 21%, up 18% - fatigue sets in making subsequent down legs more severe. Eventually, something breaks (think Bear Stearns and Lehman) and fatigue fades to fear. For traders, this volatility doesn’t have to be a burden, though. Through staying informed, sharing ideas, and testing the market with a lot of trades, you can turn apparent crisis into pure opportunity.
