5-8-25 Can the Market Continue to Build?
The Real Investment Show Podcast
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...

5-7-25 Shallow Pullbacks Still Spell Opportunity
The Real Investment Show Podcast
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...

5-6-25 Markets Sell Off
The Real Investment Show Podcast
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...

5-5-25 Resistance Is Futile For Bulls And Bears
The Real Investment Show Podcast
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...

5-5-25 Has the Market Rally Peaked?
The Real Investment Show Podcast
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...
