The debate on immigration has been heated at times. Who wants to keep who out and how do we do it? Kind of crazy for a country founded on immigrants if you ask me.
If you want to set some real criteria, how about looking at the markets as a way to set our borders. If you have been a long time reader you will not be surprised to see that this measure would suggest embracing our neighbors to the south and not the north, when I wrote about it 4 months ago here. The ratio of the Mexican iShares ETF, (EWW), against the Canadian iShares ETF (EWC) since then has moved from 2.43 to the current 2.62. But it still looks like it has more in the tank:The chart below shows that the ratio has had a couple of Measured Moves higher that moved the ratio higher by 0.28 and is now working on the third. This will take it to 2.73 or another 4.2% higher. With the Relative Strength Index (RSI) bullish and rising and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator (MACD) curling back up with ever increasing accumulation/distribution, there does not seem to be an end in sight.
