Wall Street is buzzing again — but is the bull market really back? Lance Roberts & Danny Ratliff break down what’s fueling the latest stock market rally, what investors should watch next, and whether this rebound is the real deal or just a bear market trap. Market speculation is at an all time high, yet there are economic surprises in store that could shake things up. There is now an illusion of economic strength. Lance discusses the recent reversal of the Death Cross in the S&P and NASDAQ; the Gold Cross is at an all time high. Lance and Danny address the new push to make private equity investing available for "the little guy," and the illusion of limited volatility. Beware the "good deals;" Wall Street will always find something to sell you if you want to buy it. The fallacy of "above

Historically speaking, events such as the bombing of the Iranian nuclear sites tend to be short-lived. This is most likely NOT the start of WW-3, but expect retaliations from Iran, and expect market volatility. But don’t over-think it.

Inflation Risk Is Subsiding Rapidly
2025-04-18
Inflation risk has been a significant topic of discussion in the mainstream media for the last few years. Such is unsurprising given that inflation spiked following the pandemic in 2020 as consumer spending (demand) was shot into overdrive from stimulus payments and production (supply) was shuttered. To understand why that occurred, we need to revisit …

1-29-25 Watching the Mega-Cap Earnings Parade
2025-01-29
Today is Mega-cap earnings Day, and there’s also a lot of economic data to be revealed. Plus, this afternoon will see the latest announcement from the Federal Reserve. Expectations are for the Fed to hold firm on rates this time. Interestingly, despite Monday’s selloff, money flows have continued to come into the markets. In fact, on Tuesday (1/28) the QQQ had its biggest inflow since 2021. Monday’s market action was NOT the watershed event the bears were trying to make it out to be. Markets are not overbought yet; we’re still on a solid buy signal. That’s not to say a pullback can’t happen; remember the lesson from December…and why it’s important to pay attention to money flows, either direction.

1-28-25 The DeepSeek Knee Jerk
2025-01-28
The race is on for dominance in the artificial intelligence arena with China’s release of DeepSeek. Markets initially nose-dived Monday, but ended up slightly higher (with the exception of Nvidia). This volatility underlines the necessity for portfolio diversification. The pullback in an oversold market was not unexpected. The news resulted in the biggest single-day market cap loss for Nvidia, due in part to its massive market cap. Lance discusses what may be the positive results of thie "Sputnik moment" for the US. The markets’ response also underscores the importance of Bonds in overall portfolio management. Lance & Jonathan discuss the fallacy of high-watermark comparisons in portfolios, and how to properly review portfolio performance. A discussion on how stocks are actually traded,
