Takeaway: Germany's DAX and Japan's Nikkei are still in crash mode while our #GrowthSlowing call, i.e. long the Long Bond (TLT), continues to pay off.

Crashy: These 4 Stock Markets Are Down Over 20% - euro crash

"Gotta love the decelerating-volume month and quarter-end markups – economic and profit cycle reality continues tomorrow," Hedgeye CEO Keith McCullough wrote this morning in a note sent to subscribers.

Here's more from McCullough:

"Germany's DAX is backing off its bear market bounce this morning with both IBEX (Spain) and MIB (Italy) backing off -0.3-0.5% - don’t forget that A) all of these economies were going to slow in 2H 2016 ex-Brexit anyway and that B) all of their stock markets remain in crash mode (DAX -23%, IBEX -32%, MIB -34%) from their 2015 economic cycle peaks."

 

  

Meanwhile in Asia...

"JAPAN: flat for the Nikkei post a few days of a centrally planned bear market bounce, still -25.4% since July 2015," McCullough writes.
