If the markdowns continue for equities, then the Mag7 will likely break support (below). That could be enough to turn what so far has been a 4% SPX drawdown into a more bona fide 10% correction.
We can see from the equal-weighted S&P 500 index below that the convergence trades within the US markets as well as between the US and non-US markets are being unwound to some degree. When the tree is shaken, the hot money retreats as it is doing now.
Correlations tend to go to 1 when the markets are under stress, and that’s what happening following a period of shrinking correlations. I remain bullish on these convergence trades, but we will need to wait for signs that the excesses have been washed away.
