Good Friday morning all. It’s been a solid week for the markets, one that we believe is setting the stage for a strong move into end of month and possibly a mirror image of the first half of 2022. The economy is slowing, inflation is peaking, yields are topping and investors are too bearish.
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. As Tyler covered in detail on yesterdays VRA Investing Podcast (sign up for alerts @ vrainsider.com/podcast), something interesting could be brewing to restore our (short term) faith in the markets. Even as Nasdaq (-1.2%), on the back of the Netflix implosion was hit yesterday the internals actually showed improvement.
Read MoreEven as countries all over the world adopted elements of fascism (most all but Sweden, really), for those that still couldn’t see CV insanity as the “plandemic” that it is, after Canada’s invocation of the Emergency Act…full-on hard-core fascism from our northern neighbor…
Read MoreGood Friday morning all. Some interesting data here; for the last 6 months the markets have sold off into today’s options expiration, with those Friday lows marking THE lows into months end. And here’s MORE bullishly compelling data from our investor sentiment surveys.
Read MoreGood Friday morning. The VRA was proud to be the sole sponsor of Wayne Allyn Roots remarkable interview with President Donald J. Trump. Wayne, a dear friend going back some 18 years and a true American Patriot, sat down with President Trump for an exclusive,
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. Market softness continued yesterday, following a solid open with good internals, as mid-day selling pressure took the Dow from +320 to slightly negative at the close. Nasdaq weakness was pervasive throughout the day, taking the index -2% at the close.
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. Breaking news this morning from the Bank of England, which stated flat-out “Banks should start preparations for negative rates, if needed”. My spidey senses tell me the BOE wouldn’t have made this statement…out of the blue…unless the odds of negative rates were not high.
Read MoreWhat’s happening now, to you, me and regular investors everywhere is criminal. You’re furious, I’m furious, anyone that understands fair play is furious. Robinhood, Etrade, Ameritrade, etc…they belong in the dustbin of investing history.
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. I’ll be on with our great friend Wayne Allyn Root on the Wayne Root Show tonight at 7:30 EST. USARadio.com . Hope you can join us…we have much to cover. Last night I recorded our “Welcome to 2021 Video”. A brief look back, combined with our forecasts for the markets
Read MoreGood Thursday morning and a big, bright and beautiful hello to 2021. At this time last year the potential for a great 2020 seemed (very) high probability. Huge stock market gains and a second term for Trump, seemed all but baked in the cake. Turned out our planners had other plans…2020 became the year of coronavirus insanity.
Read MoreGood Thursday morning and a Merry Christmas eve. Note; today is a half day of trading…we’ll see you back here Monday morning (and there will be no VRA Podcast this afternoon). Solid day of trading yesterday until the final few minutes when Trump vetoed the $740 billion (annual) …
Read MoreVRA Market Update Our extreme overbought on steroids market finally took a breather this week, led lower by the semis (SMH down another -.9% today). The internals held up well but we would not be adding to new broad market positions here.
Read MoreGood Friday morning all. The November jobs report is out and it’s a mixed bag. Big miss on estimates, with just 245,000 jobs created vs estimate of 469,000 but the unemployment rate fell to 6.7%. Month to month, trying to make sense of any government statistic is a fools errand, but it's the trend that’s worrisome.
Read MoreGood Friday morning all. The public is coming back into equities in a big way, with global retail investors surging over the last 2-weeks to record inflows. At the same time, cash on the sidelines is plummeting as sentiment quickly flips from fear to greed, with short interest in S&P 500 stocks…
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. I have so much to say right now that this should really be a VRA Members only podcast. I’m going to do one soon. Some of these sworn affidavits being submitted are almost impossible to believe. Rudy Giuliani got into one last night.
Read MoreGood Friday morning all. Octobers jobs report is out and its a good report. 638,000 jobs added…just a bit on the low side…with the unemployment rate falling to 6.9%, a big beat from the estimate of 7.6%, and a full percentage point lower from Septembers 7.9%. Dow futures were -200…
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. Big day today. 3rd Quarter GDP came in at a blistering 33.1%, breaking every record known to man. Now we get to find out if its a “buy the rumor sell the news” event. And this is a huge day for earnings, with the biggest of big tech reporting (after the close).
