5-13-25 Is Tariff-driven Volatility Over?
Tariffs rattled markets. Then… silence. Are we in the clear—or is another shock coming? Lance Roberts and Jonathan Penn tackle the question: Is Tariff Volatility Over? The reversal of tariffs is only a 90-day reprieve; markets are very over bought, and after Monday's rally are due for some pullback (sooner or later); be patient and bide your time before jumping into the fray. Lance and Jonathan discuss why contrarian investing is smart. Preview of today's inflation print; the danger of not doing proper research before investing: Know what you own.

5-13-25 It Pays to Be Patient
Technically speaking, markets are very over bought in terms of relative strength, which suggests that a lot of the rally from recent lows has been priced into the market. Markets can remain over bought...for a while, but will have more difficulty rising higher without a bit of a pullback first. The likelihood markets will retest those lows is very...low. Momentum is also extremely over bought, which is another indicator markets could have a pullback. If you're looking to add equity exposure to your portfolio, it will pay to be patient. Where will those entry points be? Markets on Monday broke above the 100- and 200-DMA; that's great, but markets must now hold above that level to make the breakout stick. The next level of resistance will be the all-time high, so there's not a lot to stop markets from here to there. Any pullback to the 200-DMA will be a good place for a buy-in.

5-12-25 How to Deal with a Bear Market Rally
It's Lance Roberts' 60th birthday, and the birthday faery made an early visit to the studio. Markets will be boosted today by news of an agreement between the US and China over tariffs. Is the recent market rebound a sign of recovery—or just a classic bear market trap? Lance Roberts breaks down what defines a bear market rally, why investors often get whipsawed by false hope, and how to position your portfolio amid short-term optimism and long-term uncertainty. With earnings season in full swing and rate cuts still in question, we'll explore whether this bounce has legs or is setting up for another leg lower. Lance is looking for a classic truck and has his eye on a '71 International Scout; interestingly, commentary on valuations, and the prices people are willing to pay. A history lesson on market corrections, recessions, and bottoms (with charts); why it's important to not ignore bear market signs.

5-12-25 Do You Want to Make Some Money?
The market driver today will be news of a workout between the US and China over tariffs. The markets' technical support line, going back to the begining of the tariff negotiations, is emerging as a conglomeration of resistance turning to support at the 100- and 200-DMA's. These are the last lines of defense beyond which markets can move higher. The key is for markets to move above those resistance levels, and hold. Markets are over bought on a few fronts, momentum and relative strength are also quite elevated. This is the challenge to set emotions aside and read what the markets are telling us. Disclosure: We're holding a higher-than-normal amount of cash, and we have a short position in our portfolio that will likely be removed once the market confirms the correction is completed.

5-8-25 The Fed Stays Hawkish
The Federal Reserve kept its stance firmly hawkish at their latest FOMC meeting — but what does that mean for stocks, bonds, and the economy? Lance Roberts & Michael Lebowitz break down the Fed’s latest interest rate decision, Jerome Powell’s comments, and the immediate market reaction, covering key sectors impacted, investor sentiment shifts, and the Fed’s outlook for inflation, growth, and monetary policy going forward. Lance and Michael discuss why Fed Head Jerome Powell was surprised by the Trump Tariffs, the relative strength of the dollar, and how the economy is "normalizing" with "higher" interest rates. Lance and Michael also discuss the merits of Ai with Apple & Google, and the multiplier effect artificial intelligence will produce for supporting industries; the importance of identifying and investing in companies poised for generating earnings growth. Don’t miss this critical update as the Fed’s tough tone shapes the path ahead for portfolios and financial markets.

5-8-25 Can the Market Continue to Build?
Markets initially responded with disappointment to the Fed holding firm on interest rates, but did pull out a positive day by the end of Wednesday's session. Markets again bounced off support at the 50-DMA, testing and holding that level twice in the past few days. Markets are building support at the same time the 20-DMA is catching up to the 50-DMA, building a double layer of support just below where stocks are trading. Professional traders are currently under-weight or equally-weighted exposure to equities, which gives a lot of potential buying power entering the market. Markets are now building a nice consolidation range, and if they can break above resistance at the 200-DMA, will clear the way for markets to move higher.

5-7-25 China Blinks
The Federal Reserve Open Market Committee meeting concludes this afternoon; expect some volatility. As the U.S. pushes forward with new tariffs and a tougher trade stance, China appears to blink — signaling potential cracks in its economic armor. Lance Roberts and Danny Ratliff dive into the latest developments in the U.S.–China trade conflict, why China is making strategic concessions, and what it means for global markets, supply chains, and future negotiations. Danny reviews his trip to South Africa, and they discuss the possible impact of AI on employment; market dynamics are being pulled by two forces: older, more bearish investors, and youthful, more bullish types; dealing with investor exhaustion. The first fallout from the GLP-1 craze is Weight Watchers' bankruptcy; health = wealth.

5-7-25 Shallow Pullbacks Still Spell Opportunity
Markets sold off again on Tuesday, re-testing the 50-DMA. If markets can bounce and hold today, the 50-DMA will shift from resistance back into support. If markets fail there, the 20-DMA at 5,400 will be the next level of support. There are about 150-points of downside presently, and upside will be limited to about 5,730. Markets are performing well for now; retail investors bought heavily into the dip. The question is whether they right, or is this part of a bigger, corrective cycle? (Professional investors have already sold-out of this rally, being on the wrong side of the trade.) The buyback window is now fully open, and if trends continue, will exceed $1-Trillion by the end of this year; that buying power will also add to support of the upward market trend. We think any market pullbacks will be shallow, but handy for buying opportunities. The US Dollar is the driver for everything, in terms of risk: A strengthening Dollar will attract foreign capital flows back into the US markets.

5-6-25 Markets Sell Off

5-6-25 Markets Sell Off
Markets sold off Monday after 9-striaght days of gains, as anticipated. Palantir announced earnings and outlook: The future for AI is very strong; the stock will open lower this morning simply because it has been trading at all-time highs. Diamondback Energy says they're back to peak oil production against a backdrop of very low oil prices; recently drilled wells are not profitable at current oil prices, which will be a challenge for the "drill-baby-drill' narrative. Meanwhile, markets are still sitting on a death cross between the 50- and 200-DMA; the 20-DMA is slopping upwards, providing support at around 5,370. The rising trend of higher lows will run right into the 20-DMA, which will likely stimulate some buying. At this point, we're still advising to trim portfolios to reduce risk, take profits, and raise some cash.

5-5-25 Resistance Is Futile For Bulls And Bears
May begins and stock buy backs return; earnings season has been okay, on lowered expectations. Employment report is stronger than expected, but showing slippage. Lance Roberts explores why resistance levels are challenging both bulls and bears in today’s volatile market. Over the past two weeks, the market has had a furious nine-day rally, the longest winning streak in 21 years. However, there are two takeaways from such a historic advance. First, it is “bullish” as investors return to the market. However, investors should also recognize that if the rally is the longest in 21 years, then previous such rallies failed. As shown in the chart below, there have been longer rallies, with 14 trading days being the peak. But in every case, it is worth remembering the following: “Record levels’ of anything are records for a reason. It is where the point was reached where previous limits existed. Therefore, when a ‘record level’ is reached, it is NOT THE BEGINNING, but rather an indication of the MATURITY of a cycle.” SEG-1: May Begins & Stock Buy Backs Return SEG-2: Why Wall Street Doesn't Want You to Hold Cash SEG-3: Parsing the Employment Report: Resistance is Futile SEG-4: There is No Magic Wand in Investing Hosted by RIA Advisors Chief Investment Strategist Lance Roberts, CIO Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Watch today's video on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dNIEwh8Coc&list=PLVT8LcWPeAugpcGzM8hHyEP11lE87RYPe&index=1&t=2s ------- Articles mentioned in this report: "Resistance Is Futile” – For Both Bulls And Bears" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/resistance-is-futile-for-both-bulls-and-bears/ "Economic Decline Gains Momentum" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/economic-decline-gains-momentum/ "Spock And The Logic Based Approach To Volatility" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/spock-and-the-logic-based-approach-to-volatility/ ------- The latest installment of our new feature, Before the Bell, "Has the Market Rally Peaked?" is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeqfgKzbwJk&list=PLwNgo56zE4RAbkqxgdj-8GOvjZTp9_Zlz&index=1 ------- Our previous show is here: "Doing Debt the American Way" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8BLk9Ewn6k&list=PLVT8LcWPeAugpcGzM8hHyEP11lE87RYPe&index=1&t=1s ------- Get more info & commentary: https://realinvestmentadvice.com/newsletter/ -------- REGISTER FOR OUR NEXT CANDID COFFEE (5/3/25) HERE: https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/events/live-chat/ ------- SUBSCRIBE to The Real Investment Show here: http://www.youtube.com/c/TheRealInvestmentShow -------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #StockMarket #TechnicalAnalysis #MarketTrends #BullMarket #BearMarket #RebalancePortfolio #ReduceRisk #MarketRally #MarketRisk #MarketNormalization #RiskOff #MarketLows #ReflexiveRally #DownsideRisk #MarketVolatility #MarketCorrection #RiskManagement #InvestingTips #StockMarketUpdate #InvestingAdvice #Money #Investing

5-5-25 Has the Market Rally Peaked?
Resistance is important because it applies to upside as well as downside in the market. Resistance (to prices going lower) is called support. Markets had a deep selloff down to three standard deviations, and when that happens, bottom buyers will come back into the market...and prices will begin to rise with that demand. Markets have now had nine days straight of advances, which is the longest such stretch in 21-years. However, all records are meant to be broken. The problem with records is they mark the maximum attainment at that point. The last time markets strung together 9-days of advances was in 2004...and it took 21-years to repeat the achievement. Now, with markets rallying back up to the 50-DMA, and 90% of stocks are trading above that average, that typically tends to mark the peak of a rally. Time to take profits, rebalance portfolios, and reduce risk; save that dry powder for later.

5-1-25 Market Corrections are Investing Opportunity
Markets are still holding on to levels, and will this morning take out resistance at the 50-DMA. If Apple and Amazon turn in positive quarterly report tonight, markets will have the lift to push upwards towards 5700, where they run into the 200- and 100-DMA's. Markets have enjoyed advances for 7-days in a row (yesterday we added to our short positions as a hedge for downside risk, as this is a lengthy stretch for markets). Expectations are for a rally today and possibly tomorrow, but eventually will see a pullback. When the pullback comes, the previous bottoms will act as support. Markets are getting over bought, so expect some corrective action eventually. With the market rally, investors start looking for sources of liquidity, and Gold is where a lot of money has been hiding during the tariff terror corrective period. Gold has triggered a MACD sell signal from a very elevated level. There is now downside risk to Gold, and we expect a dip to about $3,080, which would be a good re-entry point. (The 50-DMA has been a good level of support for Gold historically.) Meanwhile, Oil has become very appetizing for buyers, and we're thinking somewhere in the mid-50's will be a decent entry point for Oil.

4-30-25 Are Markets Normalizing?
Markets continue a pattern of opening weakly, enticing buyers in the afternoon, and closing higher on the day. Markets on Tuesday completed a nice rally, breaking above a previous line of resistance. Markets will again today have a weak opening after six-straight days of advances, but we expect another round of late afternoon buying. Markets have had a 19% drop, peak to trough, followed by a 50% retracement. If you were nervous at the bottom of the decline, NOW would be a good time to shed risky investments, take profits, and rebalance your risk during these rally moments. Interest rates look to be heading back down; oil prices are also falling.

4-29-25 Time to Start taking Profits
Markets initially sold off, but buyers returned at mid-morning to end the day at break-even. Markets are now stuck pushing up against previous, pre-tariff bottoms. Markets are on buy signals across the board, but getting over bought on a short term basis.We're seeing improving breadth as a rare Zweig Breadth Thrust creates optimism (See article link below), which action typically marks market lows.

4-28-25 The Rally We've Been Looking For
Markets continue to build a rising trendline, with higher-lows providing a bullish sign. Retail buyers have been aggressively buying this decline, even as professional investors have been taking money off the table. Markets on Friday broke out of a consolidation wedge, while money flows into markets turned decently positive. Relative strength is approaching overbought status. The market is not going to rally straight up, back to all time highs, but the 100-DMA is providing a lid on how high prices can go for now. But this is the rally we were looking for for an opportunity to reduce risks and take some profits (don't go ALL to cash!!), and rebalance your portfolio. That's what we did on Friday. If the recent declines were to hard on you (down more than 20%), you were likely too aggressively allocated. This is the time to rebalance.

4-24-25 Markets' Middlin Momentum
Markets on Wednesday achieved a second day of rally, and are now trying to form a bullish move...if they can maintain 5350 today. Markets are setting a series of higher lows, finding buyers in spite of negative headlines. This is the first positive sign of life since the initial tariff announcements. Expect markets to hit resistance at previous tops and bottoms. We have had six days where we've had 70% positive stocks (which doesn't happen all that often), which generally happens rear market bottoms. So there is positive momentum beneath the markets, as buyers are coming in. Don't expect the market to crash, but don't look for it to run off to the moon, either. Lance discusses oil prices and the demand dynamic as consumer enthusiasm cools.

4-23-25 Taking Risk Off the Table
Markets were close to turning a short-term buy signal into a sell signal...but...yesterday's rally saved it, and a continuation of the rally today will also provide octane for buyers (presuming nothing goes wrong). Markets have been over sold by three standard deviations, and still remain depressed against their moving averages. Markets have gone through a 61% Fibonacci retracement, which is pretty deep for any type of a market move. If markets can continue to rally, we would consider taking some more risk off the table.

4-22-25 Are Markets Mimicking 2022?
Monday's market action was not unsurprising; we continue to retrace what occurred in 2022: The analogs between current market drops and the declines in 2022 are very similar. Markets are likely going to retest recent lows, maybe even reset to lower lows; so there is still some downside risk. Markets are as deeply oversold now as in 2022, so any piece of good news markets might receive will produce a reflexive rally, and that's the opportunity you're looking for to reduce risk. This is the pattern we saw in 2022. Volatility has been dropping, and money flow indicators are starting to turn back up. We think it's best to be cautious about becoming overly bearish, as markets are trying to establish support.
