Factually: (a) The S&P500 remains in a strong uptrend, and resuming rate cuts has helped to unlock further new highs.  (b) Global equities are also going strong.  (c)  The wealth effects are speaking louder than soft jobs data.  And (d) There has been a surge in ETF launches recently.  Overall, per Callum Thomas, while there are some concerning signs and signals, the trend is still up and the path of least resistance for stocks looks to be: “Higher for Longer”.   And as we look at this week’s economic session; the changing US economy currently means that macro soft spots are set to get painted over by wealth effects.  It could also be the case that further bad economic news could be good news for the markets.  Please feel free to read the rest of the blog post: #investing #stocks #bonds #options

Factually: (a) Tech and Bitcoin both peaked in August when investor allocations to equities reached a record high.  (b) Continued weak labor data makes the odds of a 25bps FED rate cut on Wednesday very likely.  Overall: While tech stocks have been riding a wave of strong fundamentals, the comparable numbers get more difficult going deeper into the year.  Headwinds include: a softening labor market, rising inflation risks, and ‘stagflation’ continuing to be front-n-center.  Please feel free to read the rest of the blog post: #investing #stocks #bonds #options

Factually: (a) Tech Stocks and Bitcoin peaked in August – both seeing extremes in investor positioning.  (b) Total investor allocations to equities reached a record high.  (c) Weak labor data raises the odds of FED rate cuts.  Overall, per Callum Thomas: While tech stocks have been riding a wave of strong fundamentals, the higher they climb – the greater the risk.  And that makes August’s technical top in tech – interesting.  Aside from that there is: a softening labor market, rising inflation risks, and the teetering prospect of “good cuts vs bad cuts”.  Please feel free to read the rest of the blog post: #investing #stocks #bonds #options
