The Real Investment Show Podcast
CPI will have an impact on the markets, as it feeds into the answer to the question, 'Will or won't the Fed cut rates this month?' Markets on Tuesday rallied right up to the 50-DMA; futures are subdued this morning, suggesting an initial test of resistance right at the 50-DMA.

9-10-24 Markets' Rally Disappoints
The Real Investment Show Podcast
Markets generated a rather disappointing rally on Monday, giving up about half of its gains by the end of the day. The good news: Markets closed positive, bounced off the 100-DMA, and were over-sold on a relative strength basis. That initial bounce off support indicated markets are clearly not out of the woods yet, still on a sell signal, indicating weaker prices are still ahead. This will suppress any positive action until the sell signal can be worked off. Markets initially failed at resistance at the 50-DMA. If markets cannot hold support at the 100-DMA, the next level downward will...

-9-24 Will Markets Bounce this Week?
The Real Investment Show Podcast
Markets will likely bounce this week. We've had declining momentum which triggered a sell signal, which is still in place.

A real look at who pays their "fair share" and more, and who doesn't. SEG-1: Jobs Numbers & JOLTS Report: Back to Pre-Covid Normalization? SEG-2: Sunsetting Tax Cuts: Who Will Be Affected? SEG-3:...
info_outlineLast Monday's Yen Carry Trade blow-up resulted in a 3% market correction & volatility shock. We're still in the midst of a 5- to 10% corrective phase. The market did, by the end of the week, completely recover from the effects of that sell off. Markets are looking to be up this morning, and our advice is to use this rally to remove risk in your portfolio, especially if you weren't pleased with results last week. Raising a bit of cash now will enable you to better weather whatever comes next, and prepare you for the next buying opportunity. There are two paths forward from this point, and we think the most likely will be a rally to test resistance, failure, and the establishment of a new, higher bottom (which will be a buying opportunity), and then a rally higher.
