Bullish Market Breadth Might Trigger a Dash From Cash
Having been led by the “Magnificent Seven” mega-cap tech stocks, the stock market is starting to exhibit some healthier signs of broadening out. The S&P posted a 6.5% gain for the month of June boosted by a number of bullish economic reports. The third revision of first-quarter GDP came in at 2.0% versus 1.3%, coupled […]
Wagner Mutiny Exposes Putin’s Weakened Grip On Power
Media outlets are reporting that the Wagner Group rebellion led by Yevgeny Prigozhin against Vladimir Putin and the Russian military is somehow negative for global financial markets. Hogwash! Nothing could be more bullish than seeing the Russian conventional and private paramilitary terrorist forces self-destruct from within their own sphere. The revolt could even morph into […]
Zero-Coupon Bonds Will Soar When Rates Finally Fall
A few things are taking shape within the financial markets where investors should consider what lies ahead for bond yields and how to profit from the bond market as opposed to the stock market. Let’s start with Fed Chair Jerome Powell noting in his post-Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) presser that the Fed is seeing […]
$5.4 Trillion on Sidelines is Fuel for Further Market Gains
Finally, there are some vestiges of the stock market starting to broaden out from simply being led by the AI-related Magnificent Seven or the Elite Eight mega-cap tech stocks that have hoarded most of the fund flows within the year-to-date rally that has the S&P 500 testing its next overhead resistance level at 4,300. Even […]
Stock Market Broadens Out on Big Upside Breakout
Investors will be in a period of macro-economic volatility for a while. There is no question in my mind that the headwinds the market faces at the mid-point of 2023 will either remain or be more stiff as the year progresses. Those headwinds include a continuation of quantitative tightening by the Fed (shrinking of M2 […]

Regional Banks Send up Caution Flag

A Non-Bank Financial Sector Paying Double-Digit Yields Stands to Benefit
The failure of three regional banks and the challenges facing the entire sector remain in high focus of market participants this past week, after it was disclosed that PacWest Bank (PACW) saw another round of deposit flight, this time 9.5%. Despite some banks showing a pause in withdrawals, sentiment remains largely bearish as the rising […]
Recession Resistant REITs Priced at Attractive Valuations
It has long been held that owning homes and apartments has been one of the better inflation-sensitive assets for managing through periods of higher inflation. And due to the supply shortage of affordable shelter brought on by the pandemic, the housing market in many cities with strong migration trends has not seen prices come down […]
Investors Brace for Fed Pause or Push for More Hikes
Last week’s stand by the stock market to close out the month of April breathed a temporary sigh of relief, but that pop in the major average applied primarily to investors who were long in so-called FAANG stocks, “Mr. Softie”, the S&P and Nasdaq, where these equities are heavyweight components. Aside from mega-cap tech, consumer […]
