It's a show about life, markets, sweat-equity, and the pursuit of wealth in a capitalist market.
Economists are expecting a sharp pick up in economic growth before the end of the year, despite earlier, pre-tariff weaknesses. News about more threatened tariffs notwithstanding, economists are looking past all that. Interestingly, that's the needed premise to support expectations for much stronger earnings growth from analysts into the end of the year. So future expectations are seeming to support where valuations are trading. 6,900 is now a realistic target by the end of the year for analysts. This elevated sentiment and sheer exuberance should be taken as a caution sign because markets are very, very over bought. Also on Wednesday, Nvidia became the first $4-Trillion company. Ever.

More Tariff trouble on the horizon, but markets have seen this movie before (The Stick & Carrot Show). Market risk remains, as markets are highly deviated. Sentiment remains positive; there's a large gap between market performance and economic data, however. Deviations tend to resolve themselves to the downside. Lance Roberts & Danny Ratliff reveal how to shield your retirement savings from decades of inflation: The necessity of Inflation and how to deal with it (inflation is a function of economic growth); the mistake of being too conservative, fear of The Black Swan that never appears. Lance reveals his memory challenges; living thru market downturns, and lessons learned. Market downturns don't happen over night. Treasuries vs Equities: What's the proper blend? Passive Investing is an oxymoron. Risk management is essential for fighting inflation.

The big divergences between markets and their moving averages typically resolve themselves to the downside. There is now risk down to about 6,000 on the S&P, which would bring us back to the breakout prior to the all-time high. A correction would help reset the market's over bought condition. Volatility is down; that's a function of options trading, and no one seems to want to hedge portfolios against a downsized market. There is no risk control in portfolios presently because investors would rather chase the upside in markets. That's always a danger. A correction could come at any time. All the ingredients are in place, just waiting for a catalyst to get buyers out of the market and bring sellers back in.

Earnings season is upon us; will volatility pick up? A bigger question will be how tariffs may affect corporate earnings. Employment numbers are dipping into contraction zone as the economy slows. Markets sell off on renewed tariff news. Crude oil prices are creeping back up. No one is expecting correction...which is when they usually appear. Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) have exploded in popularity—driving a massive shift from active to passive investing. But is this trend distorting markets and concentrating risk? Lance Roberts and Jonathan Penn explore how ETF growth may be reshaping price discovery, liquidity, and investor behavior: Why do investors choose single-stock ETF's? Leverage. But that cuts both ways, when stocks are going up as well as going down. Lance and Jonathan examine FUnd performance vs Indexes over time. The irony of ETF's: They're passive, but being traded like stocks because of a "get-rich-quick" mentality. Speculation leads to broken markets. Lance and Jonathan discuss the US Dollar and why it remains the default reserve currency of the world, even as the mix of currencies evolves. Lance advises when it's time to be bearish.

Markets sold off on the announcement of new tariffs to be imposed in August, not surprisingly, in a start to working off markets' over sold condition. We're expecting more sloppiness for the next week or so. Markets are pretty deviated from the 20-, 50-, and 200-DMA's, and the "gravitational pull" of averages is likely to draw down stock prices at some point. 10-year Treasury yields have been on the rise the last few days. Why? Treasury Auctions are this week, and traders want to short the market to drive up yields, drive prices down ahead of that action. Crude oil has also been one of The Big Stories as of late, and prices are beginning to creep back up around $67-68/bbl. If oil can break above the 200-DMA, expect higher prices; we are also in hurricane season, and any closure of oil rigs in the Gulf will also goose prices higher. The Skew Index is reflecting a lot of volatility evaporating out of the markets as speculation returns. There is no fear of a correction now...which is generally a good time to hedge against one.

Lance is back from vacation, and the markets did not crash in his absence! On the contrary, they're doing very well. President Donald Trump's Big Beautiful Bill has been signed into law; still to be seen: its impact on earnings. We express our sentiments for the families and friends of loved ones lost in the Central Texas Flash Floods over the July 4th Weekend. Investor greed is a record levels, along with technical indicators, meaning markets are primed for a correction or consolidation; all that's needed is a catalyst. There's nothing wrong with the markets; how to properly prognosticate: Correction is coming. Lance and Brent commiserate on Monday's studio technical challenges. Looking for a better risk-reward proposition in markets; understanding retail investor enthusiasm: Where is the money coming from? A comparison, 2020 vs 2025. Lance reviews his UK trip to visit his son: Is America Unfair? Lance visits a Bath liquor store; eating the tariffs in order to compete. The Penny Stock fraud.

Markets did NOT crash while we were on vacation! Investor greed, however, is at extreme levels, along with over bought levels in the market, and the 13 composite technical indicators we track. There is lots of retail speculation afoot, and whenever you see things at this high level, this is where you're set up for some type of event to cause a short term correction or consolidation. What that event might be, nobody knows. Tariffs could play a role here. This is not a great place to chase markets; instead, this could be an opportunity to re-balance risk in portfolios and take some profits if you've had big gains in the recent rally.

What's to be The Next Big Thing to generate a narrative this Summer? Apple's recent report wasn't stellar, and absent any astonishing, new developments, the company's growth appears to be stagnant; yet, Apple is not dead. Lance and Danny address the new push to make private equity investing available for "the little guy," and the illusion of limited volatility. Beware the "good deals;" Wall Street will always find something to sell you if you want to buy it. The fallacy of "above average" gains in private equity; you never hear about the deals that go sour.

Is the Fed setting the stage for another policy blunder? As inflation pressures linger and economic growth slows, Lance Roberts & Michael Lebowitz break down the risks of the central bank's next move—and what it could mean for your money on this morning's episode of #TheRealInvestmentShow. The Market Rally is ON, yet oil prices are telling a different story about the economy. President Trump could be picking a successor to Fed Chairman Jerome Powell sooner than later. Lance and Michael expose the Fed's political "independance," and it's proclivity for financial socialism. The Fed is always late...and always wrong. The true role of the Fed is to protect its member banks. Jerome Powell doesn't mind being late. The ill-fated push to lower bank's minimum reserve requirements. Again.

In case you haven't noticed, the market's been in a rally ever since the April lows. Investor sentiment is finally turning more extreme-bullish. The whole Tariff thing is not A Thing; the Debt Crisis is not A Thing; World War 3 is not A Thing. Investors are starting to look past all this, and sentiment is on the rise. Markets on Wednesday knocked on the door of another all-time high; the NASDAQ achieved that milestone. Again. And it is possible the S&P will set a new, all-time high this week. Under the surface, things are over bought but not extremely stretched. July tends to be an event stronger month; August/September tend to be a lot weaker. If there is a risk of another correction, it will probably happen in August or September; not likely in July. Of note have been oil prices, seeing a sharp spike after the Israel/Iran conflict and the Iran bombings, but then falling equally as quickly. Oil prices have collapsed, sitting on support at the 50-DMA, and still on a sell signal. It would be no surprise to see oil bounce a bit from this level, but prices are going to remain stuck in the $60/bbl range for a while. Oil prices are being more reflective of economic data, which is showing sluggishness in the economy: Reduced economic demand = reduced demand for oil. Oil pries are actually telling us a lot about the economy, heading into the Summer.

Market speculation is at an all time high, yet there are economic surprises in store that could shake things up. There is now an illusion of economic strength. Lance discusses the recent reversal of the Death Cross in the S&P and NASDAQ; the Gold Cross is at an all time high. Lance and Danny address the new push to make private equity investing available for "the little guy," and the illusion of limited volatility. Beware the "good deals;" Wall Street will always find something to sell you if you want to buy it. The fallacy of "above average" gains in private equity; you never hear about the deals that go sour. A political sidetrack into the supposed fate of the Big Beautiful Bill and Term Limits. Danny and Lance review a Vanguard report on the average balances of 401k's (beware "average" comparisons!).

Markets enjoyed a very nice rally on Tuesday, up by about 1% by the end of the day. A little bit of a sell-off right before the end of the session restrained markets from achieving another all-time high. The trajectory of the market remains bullish. Lance discusses progress since the Death Cross in the Spring; the difference between when a Death Cross matters or not is whether a Recession occurs afterwards. The NASDAQ is actually at all-time highs, triggering a "Golden Cross." If the NASDAQ continues to set new, all-time highs, it will drag the S&P with it. Despite these achievements, we're still expecting some sloppiness in the markets; use any dips as an opportunity to buy at lower prices.

Is the threat of World War III finally off the table? Lance Roberts breaks down the latest developments in global conflict and what they mean for financial markets. From oil prices and defense stocks to safe-haven assets like gold and Treasuries, we'll unpack how investors should think about geopolitical risk now. Are markets too complacent—or is the worst truly behind us? Is Apple dead?

Markets on Monday were under a bit of pressure because of the weekend bombings in Iran and their nothing-burger response. Markets broke out of their consolidation and ended the day in the green, retaining a bullish stance. Markets held support at a previous top, and proved multiple levels on which there is solid footing. Unfortunately, there's not a tremendous amount of upside from where we are now, but technicals are improving. The downside risk is down to 2,800, and there is about 100-points of upside, so the risk/reward is not great enough to be super-aggressive. Pay attention to slowing economic growth, and the a Federal Reserve that is content to hold pat on interest rates for now.

Over the weekend, the U.S. launched strikes against Iran's nuclear facilities. Of course, for Americans and the financial markets, the response from not only Iran but also Iran's allies will be critical. Lance Roberts describes a process of logical evaluation and portfolio risk management when markets experience turmoil: What matters most to investors? What do these attacks mean for earnings? How might geopolitics affect EOQ activity? [NOTE: Lance is on vacation next week, 6/30-7/4] Remembering the Japanese Carry Trade blow up vs Iran Bombings: There is not the same sense of urgency this time; markets have already moved-on.

How are markets reacting to the weekend bombings in Iran? Futures are slightly positive. On Friday markets sold off, landing right on top of the 20-DMA; the market continues to work along this support line after working off about half of the over bought condition. Looking ahead to next month, July tends to be a stronger period, going into the third quarter, and buy back windows reopen. There may be a decent entry point by the end of this week. The Dollar was already beginning to rally prior to the weekend's geopolitical news, and there is a huge short position on the Dollar. If the US Dollar Index gets to 99- or 100, look for a pretty sharp rally in the Dollar as those shorts are forced to cover. And any rise in the Dollar is going to weigh on assets that are traded in dollars. For Oil Prices, the big concern is what's happening in and around the Strait of Hormuz, a backbone of oil prices; oil prices had spiked following the weekend's attacks, but have been cooling over the past few hours. Gold prices similarly had a lot of early gains on Sunday, but are starting to give up a large portion of those gains this morning.

Oil prices are on the rise in response to the current turmoil in the Middle East. Will this feed into higher inflation? The cure for higher oil prices is higher oil prices because it crimps off demand. The Fed has been concerned about inflation from tariffs, but that hasn't been the case. Now, the spectre of hotter inflation is rising with oil price increases; however, this all must be put into context: a longer view of oil price oscillations have not seen much of a spike. We may see a small increase in inflation, but not nearly to the degree the media would have you believe. When the Iran-Israel conflict ends, oil prices will slide back down.

Markets rallied a bit on Monday, despite the turmoil in the Middle East. Retail investors bought heavily into the dip. Futures this morning are slightly depressed. Oil prices fell, stock prices rose, and really, nothing has changed. Bulls are still trying to drive the market higher, but struggling to do so; momentum is beginning to slow. A bit of perspective: Markets finished the first quarter, and then fell sharply in April, followed by the current upward thrust that has continued through the second quarter. This has gotten pension funds off-sides, a situation that must be corrected before the end of the month: Therein lies the downside risk to markets.

Lance Roberts breaks down the latest developments in the Iran-Israel conflict and what they mean for global markets, oil prices, and investor sentiment. With tensions rising in the Middle East, we explore how geopolitical risk is shaping the outlook for the S&P 500, energy stocks, safe-haven assets like gold and Treasuries. Lance touches on the impact of Middle East conflicts on the stock market, how oil prices typically respond to geopolitical tension, and what sectors may benefit or suffer from the crisis. Lanec also addresses investor strategies during geopolitical uncertainty, with a look at historical market reactions to major conflicts. SEG-1: Iran-Israel - What's the next Catalyst?

Markets sold off slightly on Friday on concerns over the Iran-Israel conflict, down to the 20-DMA, which has been good support for markets. Markets remain over bought, and markets started on Friday to work off some of that "overboughtedness, and this morning futures are pointing higher. Interestingly, while retail investors are fully into the markets, institutional investors have been woefully underweight equities, and have some catching up to do. As markets continue to push higher, each of the interim dips are being bought up by institutional investors, which will continue to be the case as we approach the end of this month, and the end of the quarter, the end of the reporting period for hedge funds and portfolios. We believe the next two weeks will see more buying pressure as these groups reallocate capital to bolster their portfolio performance. The US Dollar, meanwhile, has been under pressure, trying to set a double bottom in order to set up for a counter-trend rally. There's a ton of negative sentiment on the Dollar, with the short-dollar trade the most over-crowded, presently. Something will cause a shift back into the US Dollar, and create a potential rally to between $97 and $103. A stronger Dollar will attract foreign investors back into the US, with a positive effect on domestic markets.

Is a college degree still worth the rising cost? As student loan debt climbs and tuition skyrockets, more families and young adults are asking whether a traditional four-year education offers a worthwhile return on investment. In this episode, we break down the financial data behind college costs, degree value by major, and explore growing alternatives like trade schools, certifications, and apprenticeships. Richard Rosso & Susan Buenger posit whether higher education is still the smart path — or if it's time to rethink the college equation.

May CPI surprised with a "cooler" print on inflation, begging the question of what the Fed will do next. Lance Roberts & Michael Lebowitz break down the CPI report, reveal what's driving the slowdown in some consumer prices, and explore what it means for interest rates, your portfolio, and the broader economy. Who's going to end up "eating" the tariff-related increases? A clue may appear in the PPI reading. April saw a massiv surge in stock buy backs; that window will soon close. Lance and MIchael discuss the initial effects of tariffs on the economy; consumer choice is a factor that should not be ignored. For investors, the key is focusing on what really matters (earnings) vs the popular narratives de jour. Markets have all the information, but investors sometimes allow sentiment to take control.

Markets had a rare down-day amid the relentless run since April. Markets are up 3% for the year. There was a record surge in buy back announcements in April, well above any previous year, which is where much of the buying pressure for stocks came from. What happens when the buy back window next closes?? There are two things going on that might indicate now is a good time to think about hedging your protfolio, or at the very least, being patient: Buy backs are about to go into blackout period, and there is no love for puts right now. No one seems to want to buy any insurance for their portfolio: Why buy insurance, when the market is just going to keep going up?? Well...typically, when levels of Puts are low, that indicates proximity to market peaks. These factors, along with seasonality, would tend to indicate markets are primed for a pullback.

Today is CPI Day, and all eyes are on the Consumer Price Index report for May. What will today's CPI data mean for the Federal Reserve's interest rate path and future market volatility? Lance Roberts & Danny Ratliff examine the implications for stocks, bonds, and consumer sentiment. Lance questions the data the government is providing, and examines the Small Caps' performance of late. What will be the impact of tariffs on CPI? Why now is a "normal" interest rate environment. Nobdy cares about economic date revisions. Danny tackles the question of whether you should disclaim a $5-Million inheritance; hilarity ensues with an anecdote about Lance's son's request for money. No. Impossible Meat goes "Flexitarian;" more hilarity ensues. Danny & Lance discuss the sticky wicket of stock and land inheritances; CPI preview: No expectation of a hot print.

Small Cap stocks have been on a tear lately, and lost of speculative bets are being placed on Small Caps. You may recall, Smapp Caps got beaten up in April, and have had a nice rally since. We are advising caution at this elevated level, approaching the 200-DMA, and take some profits sooner than later. There's real risk to Small Cap stocks economically; economnic data is showing slowing, and that is going to impede earnings at some point. It's important to note that 40% of Small Cap stocks are not profitable, particularly in the Russell 2000, which is also approaching its 200-DMA and is very over bought on multiple levels. These stocks perform best coming out of a recessionary cycle, and right now is the wrong side of that cycle. While the S&P is near all-time highs, Small Caps are way, way back.

The Rally continues with the Bulls in control since April 9, but not much has happened. Markets needed a reason to sell, and Tariffs gave them that reason, but that is all over with. That's why you have to be careful with narratives. Markets move past them quickly, and it's on to the next issue or event. Weekly buy signals now suggest the correction is complete, Bulls are back in control, and all time highs are just a breath away. We're seeing improvements in sentiment and breadth; we're in th emiddle of a reversal process. However, there is an expectation of a relaxation of what's going on: Money flows are ebbing, sellers are exhausted, and buyers are slowing. That suggests that markets are going to consolidate, or pullback to support at the 200-DMA.

We received lots of email traffic over the weekend about the "next shoe to drop" in the markets: This is NOT a bear market rally. Yes, we had a correction; that correction is now over. Taking a longer view of market action (think: weekly vs daily), we get a better sense of what is going on. We're seeing a lot of improvement from where we were just a couple of months ago. The correction worked off a lot of the over bought conditions. And on a weekly basis, a buy-signal has been triggered. We are now seeing rising relative strength. We will see a correction sometime this summer; it's just a matter of time. That would provide another buying opportunity to add exposure to equities. For investors, the upside potential for the markets outweighs the downside.

Should the new retirement age be 70? Richard Rosso explores the financial, social, and personal implications of delaying retirement. What does working longer mean for your retirement planning in 2025 and beyond? Is it a necessity—or a trap? Whether you're nearing retirement or decades away, understanding how changes to the retirement age could affect your benefits and financial independence is critical. Listen or watch to hear what raising the Social Security age could mean for you and why 70 might become the new 65. We introduce another of our Summer Interns, Parker McGill, from the University of Tennessee; the aftershocks of the Trump/Musk feud; retirement savings trends are improving; Denmark has raised its retirement age to 70; should the US take a cue?

Are investors wrong to assume that rate cuts will automatically tame inflation? Lance Roberts and Michael Lebowitz challenge the belief that the Fed's rate cuts always translate into lower inflation. Using historical data and current economic conditions, we explore how monetary policy really interacts with price pressures—and why rate cuts may actually stoke inflation under the wrong conditions. Specifically, Lance and Mike address the real impact of Federal Reserve rate cuts and inflation, why cutting rates doesn't always reduce inflation, and some lessons from past economic cycles. What today's investors should expect in 2025
Markets rallied in the morning and faded in the afternoon on Wednesday, which was no surprise: Markets are still overbought, wrestling with a momentum sell signal, and futures are flat ahead of Friday's BLS employment report. Markets anticipate the number will be weaker than expected, adding to the trend of weaker economic performance. If that's the case, markets could perform better, interpreting the data to foreshadow a lowering of interest rates sooner than later. (A stronger jobs report could ignite a sell-off, as rate cuts would be expected to be pushed back later in the year.) Markets are very close to all-time highs, with some Wall Street analysts pushing for S&P 7,000 by the end of the year. Similarly, the Mag-7 have come roaring back in the Nasdaq, and that index is also approaching new, all-time highs. Markets may continue to struggle to make gains, unlike the major moves we saw in April, but there's no reason to be negative on markets, presently; expectations for a retracement to recent lows is very slight. "Buy the Dip" should be the function for investors for now.

Is a summer swoon looming in the stock market for 2025? Lance Roberts & Danny Ratliff explore the historical performance of the S&P 500 and major sectors during the summer months—June through August, and examine whether investors should brace for a seasonal pullback, looking at historical June-to-August returns and volatility trends, what typically drives a summer slowdown in stocks, and sector-by-sector analysis: What holds up best in weak seasonal periods? How do global macroeconomic conditions and slowing growth shape investor behavior? Lance and Danny also discuss how markets listen and absorb news...and adapt. The US is NOT going broke; Lance again discusses the economic benefits of needful government spending on infrastructure projects and the multiplier effect. Danny and Lance also parse a potential bill to ban sitting Congresspersons from investing in markets. SEG-1: Sell in May, or Go Away?

Should you sell in May and go away? Markets have had a strong rally following the sell off in April: Markets were under pressure, over sold, and sentiment got very negative. That sentiment has not totally reverse quite yet, and there is a lot of momentum behind the market presently. Price tends to carry price: As markets begin to rally, like a freight train, it's hard to stop. One thing to keep in mind: Lower returns are not necessarily negative returns. Technically, markets are doing fine, and behind the scenes some bullish activity has been occurring. Money flows have turned positive, and the Mag-7's are doing well again. Hedge funds have been under-weighted, which is being corrected, and that's adding octane; stock buy backs continue to add liquidity to the markets. The markets' consolidation process is actually bullish for investors. A breakout of consolidation will set up for a rally to new, all-time highs. How will that happen amid the falling dollar and the threat of tariffs? Markets tend to do what you don't expect.

he Dollar has been under s tremndous amount of pressure, which is enticing some investors to move assets into other currencies. As Dollar has declined we've seen a relative increase in Emerging Markets and International Stocks. The narrative now is that the decline in the Dollar is a decline in American Exceptionalism, so money must move away from US stocks. Be very careful with that notion: A longer view of Emerging Markets and International's will show those asset classes have still not quite made up for losses over the past 5-years. And an impartial look at where economic growth is going to occur in the future shows it's not going to be in Europe or emercing countries. They will benefit from a strong US market to come, but they're not going to be the drivers of innovation and growth. Another long-term view of the Dollar's performance reveals that it is now higher than it was ten-years ago.

Markets wrapped the month of May very strongly, despite the choppy performance in the last week of the month. Markets are expected to open slightly lower this morning, and we're expecting more choppy performance. We're still in favor of taking profits, reducing risk, and raising cash while markets are mildly positive for the year. Remember how you felt during April's volatility? If you were uncomfortable, you had too much risk. Don't be greedy. Gold has had a decent corrective cycle; the Dollar is working a consolidation cycle.

President Trump's tariffs are being negated by Trade Courts, and markets feel inspired. Nvidia reports earnings, and is poised for a 6% gain today; we're still on the cusp of all that AI can do. Lance and Michael discuss the importance of recognizing and shutting out the narratives that distract investors; why we all seem to need a reason "why" things are as they are. Commentary on Nvidia's technology "moat;" comparisons to Apple's growth curve. How narratives matter (and do not); fundamentals are still long-term market drivers. The relationship between deficits and interest rates explored; beware of being too attached to any narrative. "The End of American Exceptionalism?" Don't you believe it.

Nvidia will open positively this morning following last night's earnings report. The stock's performance has been intriguiing, essentially trading sideways following a phenomenal run over the past four years. And despite claims of the death of AI, etc., etc., Nvidia is poised to set new, all-time highs today. The recent consolidation just allowed for earnings and valuation to "catch up" with the price. Similarlym, the S&P today will be pushing to a new high, confirming recent support actually held. The next move higher will be a test of all-time highs, around 6,130. Markets have recovered about 80% of the declines seen earlier this year. Regardless of the (false) narratives, if you want to make money, you've got to follow what the market is telling you.

Markets enjoyed a nice, 2% rally Tuesday on news of a pause until July on Eurozone tariffs by President Trump. (Remember our article in November 2024 revealing tariffs as NOT inflationary; see link below). Goldman Sachs came out this week admitting as much. Duh. This entire rally has been predicated on the realization that tariffs are not the inflationry boogie man, and not that big of a hit to the economy. It's all economic sticks & carrots by the Trump Administration. Money flows are very elevated to levels that are typically seen at the peaks of market advances, not the beginning. We've come very far, very fast; this is a good time to take some profits out of the market. Money flows into Nvidia since the bottom have been stellar, which has elevated the stock price; Nvidia is up 40% from the low. That's still 14% below its all-time highs, but a 40% gain is not chump-change. So the risk tomorrow, after the company's report tonight, is to the downside, or a very muted upside. Options pricing currently are foretelling a move of 7%, either up or down.

The markets sold off last week in a much-needed correction. Market support coalesced around the 100- and 200-DMA at 5,790. Markets will bounce off that level today. A MACD sell signal is being triggered at a very high level, and we're not over sold quite yet, so markets are not finished with the relaxation/consolidation phase. There is still risk for markets, temporarily; there could be a pullback to the 50-DMA. The 6,000 level on the S&P will be a challenge at this point. Remember, June tends to be a weaker month for markets (and corporate share buy backs go away); July tends to be stronger (and buy back activity returns). If you have not yet rebalanced your portfolio against risk, today would be a good day to do so.
