Hi YXI friends,
Welcome back! It’s been two weeks since the beginning of the Christmas/ New Year break. I hope you all had a bit of downtime with family and friends and not been too focused on the thin volumes of the market. In my opinion, the holiday period is crucial for refreshing one’s mind and resetting one’s clarity for the new year.
As we kick off 2026, I am positive that the first couple of months won’t be quiet. Fund managers will be taking on new positions to get an early start on PnL building. There will be chaos, too, as traders sweat over geopolitics, seasonality, and valuations.
Today, we begin our 2026 journey with the seasonality and weekly charts to form our early expectations.
From time to time, I will try to explain why the model turns on and off. However, I will keep the language at a high level, because 1) the model accounts for a combination of many factors every day, and no one driver will explain the entire picture, and 2) I need to protect my model IP.
