12-19-24 The Fed is Never Right
The Real Investment Show Podcast
The Federal Reserve cut rates 25-bp, as expected, but the language was more hawkish than anticipated, and the Fed's "Dot Plot" of anticipated rate cuts for 2025 suggested fewer incidents of rate trimming next year. That took a bit of juice out of the punch bowl and spooked the markets. But remember, the Fed is never right about anything, and these predictions are the worst on anything they do. Lance reviews the ingredients comprising a correction: Extremely suppressed volatility, narrow market breadth, and declining momentum. On Wednesday, following the Fed announcement, markets sold off to...

12-17-24 This is Nuts
The Real Investment Show Podcast
Retail Sales numbers this week will feed into expectations for 2025. Fed meeting tomorrow: Cut and pause, or cut and slow? Employment revisions are also due, but markets won't care. The stock market is still hitting all time highs, but that's not necessarily the case, sector by sector: Basic Materials, Industrials, Financials, and Energy are not mirroring the S&P 500; the Magnificent 7 is responsible for the bulk of growth. It's a very narrow market. “When you sit down with your portfolio management team, and the first comment made is “this is nuts,” it’s probably time to think...

Is the Market Really Doing That Great Outside of the Mag 7
The Real Investment Show Podcast
The stock market hitting all-time highs has been somewhat limited to only a few, major stocks. Sector by sector, things have not been quite as grand. Basic Materials, Industrials, Financials, and even Energy stocks have not followed the same trend as the S&P 500. Why is this? Because of the Mag-7 stocks, like Apple, Amazon, Google, and Nvidia, etc. Market breadth is declining. Dig into any sector outside Technology, Communications, and Discretionary, and the market is not doing so great. Hosted by RIA Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO Produced by Brent Clanton,...

12-16-24 Oil Prices Continue to Struggle
The Real Investment Show Podcast
Lots of volatility in the markets last week, as expected; we're still on a short-term sell signal. Volatility is expected to continue this week, at least until the Fed's announcement on Wednesday afternoon. Oil prices continue to struggle on a longer-term basis. A recent uptick in inflation data has been a function, in part, of higher oil prices. But oil prices are over-bought, and they're not expected prices to push much higher. Oil prices, in fact, are a function of the economy, and if the economy slows, pricing will slip downward. The longer-term trend for oil prices is lower. Gold prices...

info_outlineIt's a big news week: The Dock Workers' strike has begun, Israel is launching a land assault into Lebanon, and celebrity deaths (Pete Rose, Kris Kristofferson) top the news. And Jimmy Carter turns 100. Meanwhile, Q3 Earnings Season commences after three very strong quarters of business in what has been one the of the best presidential years since the 1950's. A correction at this point would be healthy for markets. We think there will be a 3- to 5% correction before elections, creating room for markets to rally into year's end. Lance's rant on the Coffee Pod scam, and the SEC doesn't have far to look (Congress!) for insider trading. Lance and Jon look at market performance, global money flows, and observe the 'everything market.' Commentary on potential disruption by dock workers' strike. YouTube likes & paywalls; there are two more Fed meetings in 2024; how many rate cuts to come? For inestors in search of dividend growth, the challenges are in an 'everything market:' there must be buyers AND sellers. No more T-bil & chill. Why "getting back to even" is a investor trap.
