Markets have staged a powerful rally off the recent lows, reclaiming the 200-DMA and pushing to new highs. Historically, when markets recover that level within four weeks, forward returns tend to improve—and this time, the rebound happened in just three weeks. Momentum is strong, money flows have flipped positive, and moving averages are turning higher. So why not chase it? Because the market is now stretched. Relative strength is overbought, and prices are significantly extended above key moving averages. When markets get this far ahead of their trend, short-term pullbacks are common—even...

Longevity risk is now measurable. The Longevity Preparedness Index, developed by the MIT AgeLab, scores how ready you are to live a long life. The average result is just 60 out of 100, signaling a major gap in retirement planning. Richard Rosso & Jonathan McCarty explain what drives that score, where most people fall short, and how to improve it. From Social Security timing to guaranteed income, flexible withdrawals, growth exposure, and healthcare planning, building a durable retirement plan requires multiple strategies working together. Key topics include: 0:00 - INTRO 0:19 -...

With inflation trends shifting, economic data sending mixed signals, and markets hovering near key levels, the big question is: what will the Federal Reserve do next? Lance Roberts & Michael Lebowitz break down the Fed’s current dilemma—balancing inflation control with economic growth—and what it means for interest rates, equities, and bonds. Key topics include: 0:00 - INTRO 1:04 - Markets Hit 5th All-time High for 2026 6:48 - Markets Up 11% from Bottom 11:35 - Pollen & Taylor Sheridan 16:25 - Allbirds & AI craze 20:12 - Market Turnover Velocity & SEC...

Markets have surged 11% from recent lows after a powerful ten-day rally, pushing above key moving averages and approaching more overbought conditions. Momentum is strong, and buy signals are in place, but as markets stretch further from their averages, upside may become more challenging in the near term. A major difference in this cycle is the absence of a “death cross.” The 50-day moving average never broke below the 200-day, and markets quickly reclaimed key technical levels. Historically, that type of setup points to stronger underlying support and lowers the probability of a full...

Markets have surged back to all-time highs, a sharp reversal from just weeks ago when geopolitical fears dominated headlines. With price now clearing all major resistance levels and reclaiming key moving averages, the technical backdrop has improved significantly. Market breadth is expanding, providing a healthier foundation for this rally. However, conditions are now short-term overbought, suggesting a pause or pullback could be next. The key level to watch is the cluster of support formed by recently reclaimed moving averages and high-volume trading zones. If markets can consolidate and hold...

Markets opened weak Monday but staged a powerful reversal, pushing back toward recent highs and reclaiming key technical levels. Money flows have flipped from deeply negative to positive, and a short-covering squeeze has accelerated the move higher. The big shift: markets are now trading back above all major moving averages, including the 20-, 50-, 100-, and 200-DMA. That transition signals a return to “buy mode” from a technical perspective, with momentum clearly improving. Historically, reclaiming these levels after an oversold condition often marks a short-term bottom. However,...

The S&P 500 just surged 8.2% off its March lows—reclaiming key technical levels and sitting within striking distance of all-time highs. But is this the start of a sustained move higher, or just a reflexive rally before another pullback? Lance Roberts & Jonathan Penn break down what drove the rally—from extreme bearish sentiment and a volatility reset, to easing geopolitical tensions—and why those factors matter for investors right now. We also examine the critical technical signals, including the reclaiming of the 200-day moving average, and what history suggests about forward...
