4-25-24 Downside Risk is Alive and Kicking!
The Real Investment Show Podcast
Markets' predicted sell off occurred, and there's still room to the downside. As we've noted, a 5 - 10% correction was very possible because of markets' extreme deviation from the 200-DMA. That gap still must be closed, and to do so will take the market down to about the 4700 level. We've already taken a 5.5% correction to the 100-DMA. Yesterday's impact of META and IBM did not help. Today we'll test support at the 100-DMA: If markets can hold at that point, we're likely going to be through the correction, However, if the market fails at the 100-DMA, it will then drop to test the 200-DMA to...

4-22-24 We Are Not Likely Done with Correction
The Real Investment Show Podcast
Markets have had a complete washout after six straight days of declines. The broke the 20-DMA, took out the 50-DMA, and markets didn't even breathe. As of Friday, we're sitting right on the 100-DMA, as we don't think this correction is yet finished. We do expect a rally up to about 5100, with the potential for another retest of the 100-DMA, and possibly even lower. There is now the possibility of a market rally up to a level of resistance, followed by another leg lower, before this correction is complete. Alternatively, we could have another rally straight up, depending upon how the current...

4-18-24 Do You Buy or Sell Into the Bounce?
The Real Investment Show Podcast
Markets are still in a correction mode, and we've been talking about a looming correction since January, with markets continuing to grind higher along the 20-DMA. When the 20-DMA broke, the computer buying algorithms were tripped. Now we're down about 4% from the peak, working off the initial 5% of the correction. (Fibonacci primciple explained here.) After four-straight says of selling, markets are getting over sold, and preparing for a bounce. The question now becomes, whether to buy the bounce, or sell into the bounce?

info_outline(5/15/23) This is make-or-break week for resolving the Debt Ceiling debate; the next discussion comes tomorrow. Market futures are somewhat elevated on hopes the question can be put to rest. Media threats of Social Security payments in jeopardy and the US will default on its debts. That's not going to happen. What will happen is government offices shutting down and non-essential workers being furloughed. No one in Washington wants to see that, so our bet is the debate will be resolved, the debt ceiling raised, and it's back to business, as usual. With the market trading "sideways" for the last 45-days, we're expecting a Debt Ceiling Deal to lift asset prices and raise markets out of the current trading range.
