4-13-26 Is The Correction Over? Watch These Signals
2026-04-13
The rally was expected after 5 straight weeks of declines, driven by extreme bearish sentiment and oversold conditions.
Key signals flipped bullish, including a move above the 200-day moving average, VIX below 20, and stable earnings expectations.
That improves the outlook over the next several months, but doesn’t eliminate volatility or the risk of a retest.
The next move depends heavily on macro factors like oil prices and geopolitical developments.
Use this rally to rebalance risk and reposition, not to chase upside blindly.

4-10-26 The Economy Was Already Weak Before Iran & Oil — Don’t Forget That
2026-04-10
The economy was already weakening before Iran and the oil shock—growth had slowed, the labor market was stagnant, and inflation was easing.

2026-02-25
The recent rotation from growth to value is well documented. While the return divergences between, for instance, technology stocks and materials or industrials stocks are significant, they do not tell the whole story. There are also extreme return differentials between broad industries and their sub-industries. In this article, we address one such divergence between the …
2-23-26 The Tariff Saga Continues — What It Means for Markets
2026-02-23
The Supreme Court struck down the structure used to impose prior tariffs, ruling they must go through Congress.
The administration quickly shifted strategy: Trump imposed a temporary blanket tariff — initially 10%, later raised to 15% — set to last 150 days. This effectively resets the framework while keeping tariffs in place, just under a different legal justification.
Even with Monday’s sharp selloff, from a market perspective, this changes very little.
In this Short video, Lance Roberts breaks it down in detail.

Calm Market Waters Hide Fierce Undercurrents
2026-02-18
The price movement in the broad S&P 500 index is relatively calm. Yet the market’s undercurrent, as measured by sharply diverging returns across stock sectors and factors, is anything but calm. The current market picture we paint is well embodied by a quote from Jules Verne in 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. “The sea was …
