Now it is true that certain parts of the economy is already weak or contracting. Manufacturing is one, according to the ISM surveys. The contraction is in its fifth consecutive month. Unemployment is also inching up, triggering the now famous Sham Rule. There is also a rise in delinquency in consumer loans. All these point towards a weaker economy.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, the signals from financial markets is starkly different.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike the previous dis-inverting periods, the signs from markets are more positive. Market breadth was very weak in 1999-2000, and in 2007-08. When the yield curve dis-inverted, many stocks were already in a bear market. The Advance-Decline index was trending down during those periods.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-346\" src=\"https:\/\/inmyopinion.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Screenshot-2024-09-05-at-4.08.02\u202fPM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"989\" height=\"773\" srcset=\"https:\/\/inmyopinion.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Screenshot-2024-09-05-at-4.08.02\u202fPM.png 989w, https:\/\/inmyopinion.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Screenshot-2024-09-05-at-4.08.02\u202fPM-300x234.png 300w, https:\/\/inmyopinion.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Screenshot-2024-09-05-at-4.08.02\u202fPM-768x600.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 989px) 100vw, 989px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-347\" src=\"https:\/\/inmyopinion.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Screenshot-2024-09-05-at-4.11.26\u202fPM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"991\" height=\"776\" srcset=\"https:\/\/inmyopinion.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Screenshot-2024-09-05-at-4.11.26\u202fPM.png 991w, https:\/\/inmyopinion.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Screenshot-2024-09-05-at-4.11.26\u202fPM-300x235.png 300w, https:\/\/inmyopinion.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Screenshot-2024-09-05-at-4.11.26\u202fPM-768x601.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 991px) 100vw, 991px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Currently, the signal from markets are more positive.
