July 1 Market Preview | Three Minutes on Markets & Money [7/1/21]

(7/1/21) The first two weeks of July tend to be positive for markets, but we're entering an historically weak period for markets; Earnings comparisons from 2020 are going to be astonishing because of last year's shutdowns: It will be an Earnings Season of the have's vs have-not's. Money Flow Signals are rapidly shifting; we've added a Dow Index in order to take advantage of the "catch-up" trade. We're over-due for a 5% correction, not...

Major Market Review | 3 Minutes on Markets & Money [6/30/21]

Upside to markets, however, remains limited. NASDAQ has been The Story lately, on a buy signal, and playing "catch-up" with the S&P.

Dressing the Windows to Close Out the Month | 3 Minutes on Markets & Money [6/29/21]

The end of June marks the close of the current quarter, with portfolio managers repositioning holdings. Markets are over-bought, with limited up-side. There is still a declining participation, but some positive action is apparent. The first two months of July tend to be positive, but the back half of that month generally is not. We have added some market exposure, but keeping an eye on money flow signals as we move later into the summer....

#MacroView: Capitalism Does Not Equal Corporatism – Pt. 1

Furthermore, let’s understand what these debates are really about. The debates over capitalism aren’t about Mike Jones, who operates the local auto mechanic repair shop.

What's the deal with the Money Flow Signals and markets seemingly ignoring them? Lance Roberts' explainer segment sets up the context for his technical analysis using this tool.
