Markets hit another all time high last week, but on very muted moves as investors continue climb a wall of worry. Markets continue to test the 20-DMA and rally back above...another pullback to that level would not be surprising. Markets are somewhat over bought on a relative strength basis, and not sitting on a very tight MACD momentum signal. Retail buying is approaching some of the highest levels we've seen, while professional investors' allocations are still somewhat underweight equities (computer traded algorithms are excepted). AS we head into the end of the quarter, we could see institutional buying also providing additional support. This is NOT the look of a "market melt-up;" it's just a gradual grind higher with investors willing to pay a little more without a sharp, speculative spike. What to watch? Volatility remains complacent, and complacent markets invariably lead to non-complacent markets.

Especially if you belong to a historically oppressed identity.In this episode, Sarah talks with Amelia Nagoski, DMA—co-author of Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle—about what burnout really is, how to recognize it, and the ways we can begin to recover. Together they explore why rest is radical, why emotions are meant to be completed like cycles, and why true healing comes through collective care—not just individual fixes.You'll hear:How burnout differs from stress and exhaustionWhy “emotions are tunnels” and what happens when we get stuck inside themThe science behind the 42% rest rule—and what rest can actually look likeWhy the cure for burnout isn't self-care, but us caring for each otherPractical tools to complete the stress cycle and return your body to safetyMore on Amelia NagoskiAmelia Nagoski, D.M.A. (it stands for Doctorate of Musical Arts) is the co-author, with her sister Emily, of the New York Times bestselling Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle and the Burnout workbook.

Markets sold off on Friday; nothing really surprising to investors. Markets continue to grind along the trend line, with a little weakness showing in Nvidia and other tech stocks. This is why it's important to keep portfolios balanced between growth a defense. The S&P isn't breaking out, rather moving side ways, tracking right along with the 20-DMA. The biggest concern we have presently is the continuing, large negative divergence in relative strength and momentum. This behavior tends to show up prior to market corrections. Volatility remains extremely suppressed. Gold's consolidation has resulted in abnormal over-bought conditions. This would be a great place to take profits and await the next pullback. An inverse of that has been Oil prices, very over-sold. Despite the weakness in Oil, Energy prices have been performing well. Bond Yields have fallen sharply over the past three sessions; the trend in Yields has been decidedly lower over the past few months.   Hosted by RIA Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO  Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Watch the Video version of this report on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIeIdX4aXas&list=PLwNgo56zE4RAbkqxgdj-8GOvjZTp9_Zlz&index=1  ------- Get more info & commentary:  https://realinvestmentadvice.com/insights/real-investment-daily/ ------- Register for our next RIA Dynamic Learning Series event, "Savvy Medicare Planning," September 18, 2025: https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/events/savvy-medicare-planning-what-baby-boomers-need-to-know-about-medicare/ ------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #BullishTrend #NegativeDivergence #MarketCorrection #PortfolioAllocation #PortfolioHedging #RiskManagement #Gold #Oil #Yields #20DMA #50DMA #100DMA #200DMA #InvestingAdvice #Money #Investing

Markets were flat for the day on Wednesday until the end of the session, when markets rallied above the 20-DMA to keep the bullish trend intact. Each intraday pullback exposes the 'buy-the-dip' mentality. But that doesn't move the needle much in terms of relative strength or momentum, which remain rather weak. Markets just haven't made much of a move in a while. That is the type of activity seen when markets are trying to slow the pace and prepare for a pullback (not a MAJOR correction). The longer markets trade sideways and work off over-bought positions, the better the opportunity that will be afforded for investors to add equity exposure. Interestingly, Gold has been in an over-sold position, has worked through, and is now in a place where profit taking is prime.    Hosted by RIA Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO  Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Watch the Video version of this report on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPN3UX4VjI8&list=PLwNgo56zE4RAbkqxgdj-8GOvjZTp9_Zlz&index=1   ------- Articles mentioned in this report: "Portfolio Risk Management: Accepting The Hard Truth" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/portfolio-risk-management-accepting-the-hard-truth/ "Meme Markets: Investing vs. Entertainment" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/meme-markets-investing-vs-entertainment/ ------- Get more info & commentary:  https://realinvestmentadvice.com/insights/real-investment-daily/ ------- Register for our next RIA Dynamic Learning Series event, "Savvy Medicare Planning," September 18, 2025: https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/events/savvy-medicare-planning-what-baby-boomers-need-to-know-about-medicare/ ------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #BullishTrend #NegativeDivergence #MarketCorrection #PortfolioAllocation #PortfolioHedging #RiskManagement #20DMA #50DMA #100DMA #200DMA #InvestingAdvice #Money #Investing

Markets sold off, as expected, for the first trading day of September. Market action has been very compressed, with not a lot of volatility. Markets ARE moving, but not in big moves in one direction or the other. This tends to lend to a lot of complacency in the market. Markets DID break through the 20-DMA, but a break is only valid if it holds through the end of the week. IF that occurs, the 50-DMA is the next level of key support, and below that, it's a long way down before reaching any significant levels of support. Still, the market is continuing its low-volatility rise. The negative divergence in momentum and relative strength remains, and appears to be increasing, and that tends to lead to bigger corrective action. Was Tuesday's sell-off the start of a correction, which would align with September's reputation as a "weaker" month for markets? The Thing to watch will be the 50-DMA, as key support. There are a lot of trading algorithms lined up at the 50-DMA, and a break below that level will trigger a lot of selling. That risk is worth a bit of hedging in your portfolio at least until we get through the month.

Markets closed down a bit on Friday ahead of a long, holiday weekend, but still maintained its bullish trend. The 20-DMA is continuing to act as running trend support, and bullishly-speaking, the market is doing just fine. The trend line support is very important because trading algorithms and systematic traders have all moved their stops up to that 20-DMA; if we DO get a confirmed violation of the 20-Day, we could see more selling pressure come into play. Just below that is the 50-DMA, which will become much more critical for support: If the market takes out the 50-DMA, a LOT of programmatic selling will kick in, followed by a quicker drop to the 100- and 200-DMA's...which have all converged around 6,000. We don't think we'll see 6,000 by the end of the month, before we get set up for an end-of-year rally, but there is the potential for a pullback this month. There is a lot of speculative activity that could be quickly unwound if we get a bit of a correction. The divergences in relative strength and momentum we've been watching are precursors for larger than normally expected corrections. Re-balancing portfolios and storing up a little cash this month would be wise.  Hosted by RIA Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO  Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Watch the Video version of this report on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__3NfLfuGNQ&list=PLwNgo56zE4RAbkqxgdj-8GOvjZTp9_Zlz&index=1  ------- Articles mentioned in this report: "Meme Markets: Investing vs. Entertainment" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/meme-markets-investing-vs-entertainment/ ------- Get more info & commentary:  https://realinvestmentadvice.com/insights/real-investment-daily/ ------- Register for our next RIA Dynamic Learning Series event, "Savvy Medicare Planning," September 18, 2025: https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/events/savvy-medicare-planning-what-baby-boomers-need-to-know-about-medicare/ ------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #BullishTrend #NegativeDivergence #MarketCorrection #PortfolioAllocation #20DMA #50DMA #100DMA #200DMA #InvestingAdvice #Money #Investing

All the world's a stage, which means that performance anxiety can be debilitating in a variety of contexts. What does it take to silence your inner critics and do your best when only your best will do? Amy and Mike invited educational consultant Christine Gangelhoff to explore what performance teaches us about test anxiety. What are five things you will learn in this episode? What are the core similarities between test anxiety and performance anxiety in musicians or athletes? How can students pace their test prep the way performers pace their practice to avoid last-minute panic? What breathing or physical regulation techniques used by performers could help test-takers stay grounded? How can students build “performance stamina” to sustain focus during longer exams or high-stakes testing environments? What mindset strategies from the performing arts can help students shift from fear to focus during a test?

Thỏa thuận thuế quan và thương mại Liên Hiệp Châu Âu đạt được với Hoa Kỳ về mức thuế 15 % còn chưa ráo mực, Washington mở thêm một mặt trận mới đòi Bruxelles xóa bỏ mọi rào cản để cho các tập đoàn công nghệ kỹ thuật số của Hoa Kỳ tự do tung hoành trên thị trường châu Âu. Một lần nữa Donald Trump lại sử dụng đòn thuế quan để hù dọa.  Châu Âu, « con gà đẻ trứng vàng » của các GAFAM Vì sao chính quyền Trump muốn « phạt » Bruxelles trong lúc Liên Âu là thị trường màu mỡ nhất - ngoài lãnh thổ Hoa Kỳ, của các tập đoàn Mỹ ? Trong số những vị khách mời có chọn lọc để được trực tiếp dự lễ nhậm chức của tổng thống Hoa Kỳ thứ 47 hôm 20/01/2025, chủ nhân Meta đã mau mắn hơn cả nhờ ông Trump giúp đỡ, nới lỏng các chuẩn mực của châu Âu điều tiết các hoạt động trong lĩnh vực digital. Hơn nửa năm sau, phải chăng Mark Zuckerberg sắp được toại nguyện ? Ngày 24/08/2025 tổng thống Donald Trump trên mạng xã hội cá nhân đã « ra lệnh » cho tất cả những quốc gia trên thế giới dẹp bỏ mọi hình thức thuế quan và luật lệ gò bó hạn chế hoạt động của các tập đoàn Mỹ trong lĩnh vực « digital ». Trong mắt ông, đó là những biện pháp mang tính « phân biệt đối xử ». Kèm theo là lời đe dọa những ai không thỏa mãn đòi hỏi này. Chủ nhân Nhà Trắng không nêu đích danh các mục tiêu Hoa Kỳ nhắm tới nhưng Liên Âu, thị trường số 1 của các ông khổng lồ trong ngành công nghệ High Tech Hoa Kỳ, đã gây dựng nhiều cơ sở pháp lý « tự vệ » mà Donald Trump gọi là những « biện pháp bảo hộ ». Ba cái gai trong mắt Donald Trump Từ tháng 2/2025 chỉ vài tuần sau khi tổng thống Trump trở lại cầm quyền, ông và phó tổng thống J.D Vance -người rất gần gũi với các đại gia trong lĩnh vực digital của Mỹ đã liên tục đòi châu Âu dẹp bỏ những đạo luật và quy tắc « che khuất những thành công rực rỡ  » của nhóm GAFAM (Google, Amazon, Facebook, Apple và Microsoft), của những tên tuổi lớn trong lĩnh vực trí tuệ nhân tạo, những nhà cung cấp các dịch vụ trên mạng … của Hoa Kỳ. Liên Hiệp Châu Âu hiện có ít nhất 3 đạo luật đang khiến Washington tức giận : Đạo luật Thị trường Kỹ thuật số (DMA), nhằm kiểm soát các hành vi gây trở ngại cho việc cạnh tranh giữa các nhà cung cấp dịch vụ digital. Kế tới là DSA, tức là Đạo luật Dịch vụ Kỹ thuật số nhằm tăng cường tính minh bạch của các thuật toán (algorithm), kiểm soát hoạt động kiểm duyệt nội dung và gần đây nhất là AI Act : đây là bộ luật đầu tiên trên thế giới « quản lý » các khâu phát triển, sử dụng trí tuệ  nhân tạo. Theo phân tích của Andrea Renda giám đốc Trung Tâm Nghiên Cứu Chính Sách Châu Âu -CEPS, trụ sở tại Bruxelles, đạo luật DSA chẳng hạn do muốn « cân bằng giữa các mục đích bảo vệ người sử dụng và các quyền tự do ngôn luận » nên là « hiện thân của quỷ dữ » như chính Trump đã nói. Vẫn theo chuyên gia này, trong suốt quá trình đàm phán với châu Âu về thuế quan và thương mại, lĩnh vực digital luôn luôn là nỗi ám ảnh của phía Hoa Kỳ. Một khi đạt được thỏa thuận về mức thuế 15 % với Bruxelles (tháng 7/2025) và giành được nhiều nhượng bộ từ phía châu Âu, Washington lập tức « quay lại tiếp tục gây sức ép, đe dọa Liên Hiệp Châu Âu », đòi khối này phải trả giá đắt nếu gây trở ngại cho đà phát triển của các « ông lớn » trong lĩnh vực công nghệ kỹ thuật số của Mỹ. Hơn nữa chính vì các đạo luận DMA và DSA nói trên mà Apple và Meta đã bị châu Âu phạt hàng trăm triệu đô la. Nói cách khác, cuộc chiến sắp tới Washington đang chuẩn bị nhắm vào châu Âu không hề xuất phát từ nhu cầu thu hẹp nhập siêu của Mỹ với 27 thành viên Liên Âu. Trên đài truyền hình Arte, chuyên gia kinh tế và địa chính trị, thuộc Viện nghiên cứu châu Âu Jacques Delors, bà Elvire Fabry cho rằng, các đòn tấn công liên tiếp của Donald Trump trong lĩnh vực thương mại hay sắp tới đây là công nghệ kỹ thuật số nhắm vào châu Âu trước hết không liên quan đến việc Mỹ bị nhập siêu với châu Âu « Phía sau cuộc chiến thương mại này còn có nhiều ý đồ chính trị. Donald Trump tìm cách xé nát Liên Âu ra thành từng mảnh nhỏ nhưng lại vừa muốn tiếp cận thị trường châu Âu giúp cho các hãng của Mỹ. Cùng lúc, Hoa Kỳ mượn tay các đảng phái chính trị cựu hữu ở châu Âu, để khuynh đảo Liên Âu từ ở bên trong. Chính vì thế mà Mỹ hiện đang ủng hộ các đảng cánh cực hữu tại nhiều nước châu Âu ». Về phần Jean Luc Demarty nguyên giám đốc đặc trách về thương mại của Ủy Ban Châu Âu (2011-2019), ông giải thích, ngay cả việc áp dụng « thuế đối ứng » cũng không có cơ sở. « Đành rằng khoản thặng dư mậu dịch của châu Âu đối với Mỹ là rất lớn, và mức xuất siêu đó lại càng tăng thêm trong năm 2024 vừa qua, bởi vì đồng đô la tăng giá. Nhưng đấy chỉ là xét riêng về các khoản xuất và nhập hàng hóa. Nếu cộng cả vế dịch vụ với hàng hóa thì cán cân thượng mại giữa Hoa Kỳ và Liên Hiệp Châu Âu khá cân đối, chênh lệnh chỉ khoảng 50 tỷ đô la chứ không phải là 200 hay 300 tỷ đô la như ông Donald Trump khẳng định ». Liên Âu luôn « run tay » khi cần tự vệ Trong mọi trường hợp, kinh tế gia Shahin Vallée thuộc cơ quan tư vấn về chính sách đối ngoại DGAP trụ sở tại Berlin đánh giá, châu Âu quá nhu nhược trong cuộc đọ sức với Hoa Kỳ. Mỹ đã nắm bắt rõ điều đó ngay từ khi mới chỉ vừa bắt đầu dọa nạt.    « Thực ra chiến lược đàm phán của Liên Hiệp Châu Âu chưa bao giờ khiến ông Trump phải lo lắng. Bruxelles đã có nhiều cơ hội để đặt những điều kiện cứng rắn hơn với Hoa Kỳ lên bàn thương thuyết, nhưng đấy chỉ là những lời đe dọa suông. Thậm chí ngay cả khi đề cập đến các biện pháp trả đũa để khỏi bị Washington o ép, châu Âu cũng không thể đồng ý và có một tiếng nói chung. Bruxelles đã ‘run tay' và ở phía bên kia, Washington thấy rõ điều ấy và đã tận dụng thời cơ ». Một nhược điểm khác của Liên Hiệp Châu Âu mà Hoa Kỳ đã chóng nhận thấy là tính thiếu đoàn kết của khối này. Cuộc chiến Digital còn chưa khai mào mà nhiều nhà phân tích đã báo động « coi chừng Đức sẽ bán rẻ tham vọng độc lập của châu Âu về kỹ thuật số cho Hoa Kỳ » để được Washington nương tay khi đánh vào công nghiệp xe hơi Đức. Mỹ cũng biết sử dụng chiến thuật « chia để trị ». Liên Hiệp Châu Âu đối tác nặng ký nhất của Mỹ Vài con số về trao đổi mậu dịch hai chiều : tổng kim ngạch xuất nhập khẩu hàng hóa và dịch vụ giữa Liên Hiệp Châu Âu và Mỹ năm 2024 vượt hơn 1.600 tỷ đô la (867 tỷ euro cho hàng hóa và 817 tỷ euro cho dịch vụ). Để so sánh, theo các thống kê chính thức của Mỹ (US Bureau of Economic Analysis) cùng thời kỳ, trao đổi hàng hóa và dịch vụ giữa hai nền kinh tế lớn nhất thế giới, tức Mỹ và Trung Quốc, là 660 tỷ đô la. Nghịch lý ở đây là Liên Hiệp Châu Âu tuy là khách hàng lớn nhất của Mỹ mà vẫn bị chèn ép. Hôm 27/07/2025 chủ tịch Ủy Ban Châu Âu, Ursula von der Leyen và tổng thống Mỹ Donald Trump đã đạt được một thỏa thuận quan trọng nhằm « tăng cường quan hệ thương mại và đầu tư » song phương và cũng vì thỏa thuận này bà đã bị nhiều thành viên trong khối chỉ trích gay gắt. Để hàng của châu Âu xuất khẩu sang Hoa Kỳ bị đánh thuế 15 % , thay vì 30 % như Donald Trump từng đe dọa, Liên Âu đã vội vã hứa mua thêm hơn 700 tỷ đô la dầu hỏa và khí đốt của Hoa Kỳ trong ba năm sắp tới và đầu tư thêm 600 tỷ đô la vào Mỹ từ nay đến năm 2029. Hàng rào phi quan thuế Nhưng bên cạnh đó, văn bản được ký kết còn kèm theo một điều khoản buộc các bên giảm thiểu các hàng rào phi quan thuế để thúc đẩy mâu dịch hai chiều. Chính trên điểm này Washington chuẩn bị một đợt tấn công sắp tới nhắm vào Liên Âu. Liên Hiệp Châu Âu là thị trường chiếm 27 % doanh thu của Google, 23 % thu nhập của Meta. Nhờ có 450 triệu dân châu Âu mà mỗi năm Marck Zuckerberg thu về 38 tỷ đô la … còn với ông Sundar Pichai, trong cương vị chủ tịch tổng giám đốc Alphabet Inc, công ty mẹ của Google thì năm ngoái Liên Hiệp Châu Âu cho phép thu về 90 kiếm được 96 tỷ đô la nhờ Liên Hiệp Châu Âu. Trong cuộc chiến về công nghệ kỹ thuật số đang manh nha giữa hai bờ Đại Tây Dương, chủ đích của tổng thống Trump là « diệt trừ hiểm họa » châu Âu cũng sẽ có những nhà vô địch trong thế giới digital.

Who does God say you are? And how do you step into your true identity when the world (and even yourself) have told you otherwise? If you (or your kids) feel unseen, unworthy, or unwanted, this episode is for you. In this powerful conversation, Hosanna Wong shares her journey of growing up on the streets of San Francisco with a father who battled addiction, only to see God transform his life and spark an outdoor church that reached the hurting. Her story goes on to share how she went through some hard years that were full of disappointment and lies from the enemy. She continued to press into the word and God reminded her who she is in Christ, through that season her spoken word ministry was born. Here is some of what we talked about:  How God uses ordinary moments and people, like a mother opening her door to a vacuum salesman and sharing faith, to change generations The struggle of feeling like you don't measure up to “good Christian molds” and learning freedom in Christ Why God delights in your unique personality, schedule, and situation, He made you that way on purpose Hosanna reminds us that we have freedom in how we connect with our creator and God wants to meet us where we are  Connect with Hosanna Wong:  Website:  HOSANNA Facebook: Hosanna Wong Instagram:  Hosanna Wong (@hosanna.wong) Links Mentioned:   SPOKEN WORD: I Have A New Name What God Says About You: By Hosanna Wong You Are More than You've Been Told: By Hosanna Wong  Related Episodes: Exchange False Beliefs with True Identity :: Jamie Winship [Ep 433] When You Need a Personal Revival :: Cleere Cherry Reaves [Ep 504] Fighting Toxic Thoughts :: Jennie Allen [Ep 272] Featured Sponsors:  Thrive Causemetics: Maximize your look with minimal effort.

Președintele Donald Trump amenință cu tarife vamale asupra țărilor care, în opinia sa, discriminează tehnologia americană. Este vizată îndeosebi legislația europeană a piețelor și serviciilor digitale, apreciază comentatorii. Potrivit The Guardian, amenințarea pune presiune asupra Regatului Unit și a UE, ambele având acorduri comerciale de dată recentă cu SUA. UE a implementat reglementări pentru a limita puterea marilor companii de tehnologie prin intermediul Legii privind serviciile digitale, iar mai multe state membre, inclusiv Franța, Italia și Spania, au instituit taxe pe serviciile digitale. UE se opune lui Trump: Reglementarea tehnologiei este dreptul nostru „suveran”, titrează Politico, reluând o declarație a unui purtător de cuvânt al Comisiei Europene. Legea privind piețele digitale (DMA), alături de legea privind serviciile digitale (DSA), este o piatră de temelie a politicii digitale a UE. În timp ce DSA stabilește obligații pentru platformele online cu privire la aspecte precum dezinformarea și siguranța copiilor, DMA analizează așa-numitele firme de tip „gatekeeper” - giganți tehnologici precum Google, Apple, Meta, Amazon, Microsoft și TikTok - cârora le cer să își deschidă serviciile și să asigure o concurență loială. Potrivit Euronews, ”poziția lui Trump amenință să zădărnicească progresele realizate împreună cu partenerii europeni în ceea ce privește reducerea fricțiunilor comerciale. UE și SUA au făcut progrese în ceea ce privește pactul lor comercial, anunțat inițial pe 27 iulie, susținând că vor aborda barierele nejustificate în calea comerțului transatlantic. Acordul deschide calea pentru reducerea tarifelor la anumite bunuri și sectoare. Chiar și așa, blocul format din 27 de membri și-a exprimat reticența în a face concesii în ceea ce privește reglementările digitale”. Le Monde amintește că, ”de la revenirea la președinție în ianuarie, Trump a impus tarife vamale atât aliaților, cât și concurenților, cu rate variabile. Trump a folosit tarifele vamale ca mijloc de a urmări diverse obiective. O dublare a tarifelor vamale americane asupra produselor indiene urmează să intre în vigoare în această săptămână din cauza achiziției de petrol rusesc - o sursă cheie de venit în războiul Moscovei din Ucraina”. The New York Post scrie, citând o relatare a agenției Reuters ,că ”în culise, oficialii Casei Albe au analizat sancțiunile împotriva oficialilor Uniunii Europene și ai statelor membre responsabile de Legea Serviciilor Digitale”. Oficialii Departamentului de Stat nu au luat încă o decizie cu privire la impunerea acestor sancțiuni, care ar putea lua forma unor restricții de vize, au declarat sursele.

Markets closed at all-time highs on Friday, thanks to comments by Jerome Powell that the Fed will be cutting rates in September. Markets confirmed support at the 20-DMA. Markets also saw a very sharp uptick in money flows, thanks to options expirations: Friday was the largest options expiration day for August on record. Market breadth also improved dramatically. Small-cap and Mid-cap stocks also jumped by 3%. Futures this morning are lower, with some profit taking coming in. However, we are still running a negative divergence in money flows and relative strength, indicating underlying technical weaknesses remain.

Our kids begin to feel and respond to shame as early as 15 to 18 months of age. Those early moments can begin a lifelong struggle with feeling unworthy, inadequate and unlovable. Shame also disintegrates us (separating our thinking brain from our feeling brain) and isolates us from others.  My guest is Dr. Curt Thompson, a psychiatrist and expert on the effects of shame and how to find freedom from the lifelong negative messages that come after us and our family. “One of the things that we notice about shame is that because we are immobilized and we are hiding, shame does not actually ever allow us to move toward God. This is why we have to have someone come and find us. This is why when our children are experiencing shame, we have to go and find them. This is why it's important for us as parents to have others who are coming to find us.” YES! Moms don't let moms sit in shame. We can choose to seek out others when they are stuck in the shame cycle. Who are your 2 or 3 moms that will help you tell your story more truly?  Dr. Thompson walks us through some practical ways to build in memories and physical reminders to work against shame in the future for both ourselves and others. And throughout our conversation he points back to how God doesn't leave us to deal with shame alone. “The beautiful thing is Jesus isn't worried about our kids. He's not worried about your mothering. He's delighted. He knows how hard this work is and he knows that we will do it imperfectly. Even when we have our worst moments in which we foist to shame upon our kids or when our kids experience shame against everything that we're doing to try to combat it, God is saying: ‘I'm not worried. I never run out of options.'” Summer of Mentorship Discussion questions PDF  Connect with Dr. Thompson:  Website:  https://curtthompsonmd.com  Facebook: https://curtthompsonmd.com/  Instagram: @curt_thompson_md  Links Mentioned:   BOOK: The Soul of Shame  BOOK: Anatomy of the Soul BOOK: The Soul of Desire: Discovering the Neuroscience of Longing, Beauty, and Community BOOK: The Deepest Place: Suffering and the Formation of Hope  Featured Sponsors:  Honeylove–Treat yourself to the most comfortable and innovative bras on earth and save 20% Off sitewide at honeylove.com/DMA  Outschool–Get your family's first month for only $1 when you use our link: https://outschool.com/DMA and use code DMA at checkout.

In this episode I'm joined by historian Alexandra Birch to talk about the role of music and sound in Nazi Germany and the Holocaust. We discuss her recent book Hitler's Twilight of the God's: Music and the Orchestration of War and Genocide in Europe, how music and sound contributed to genocide and Nazi identity formation, how the Nazis used music to embed their mythology and ideology into everyday people's lives, the types of music and composers that the Nazi command structure favored or regulated, the psychology of genocide from the victim and perpetrator perspective and how music may have figured into that, some misconceptions and common misunderstandings about music during the Holocaust, the soundscape of horror inside a concentration camp, some of Alexandra's thoughts on holocaust denialism and the role of museums in preserving history, and much more.  Dr. Alexandra Birch is a professional violinist and historian who works comparatively on the Nazi Holocaust and Soviet mass atrocity, including the Gulag through the lens of music and sound. She holds a PhD in History from the University of California Santa Barbara, and a BM, MM, and DMA from Arizona State University in violin performance. Previously, she was a fellow at the US Holocaust Memorial Museum, the Wilson Center, and the Vienna Wiesenthal Institute, where she released CDs of recovered music and finished her first book Hitler's Twilight of the Gods: Music and the Orchestration of War and Genocide in Europe. Her current project “Sonic Shatterzones, The Intertwined Spaces, Sound and Music of Nazi and Soviet Atrocity,” investigates eight case studies of the Holocaust in the USSR and Gulag, including indigenous interactions with Solovki, new recordings of Weinberg's compositions from his time in Tashkent, sound recordings of the Gulag in Kazakhstan and of Auschwitz-Birkenau, and post-Soviet world premiere compositions, creating a humanizing look at incomprehensible violence. -Consider Supporting the Podcast!- Leave a rating or review on apple podcasts or spotify!

Have you read the whole Bible? That was the question my guest Tara-Leigh Cobble struggled to answer while talking to a pastor friend. As she thought back through her life growing up in a Christian home, being involved in church and now working in full-time ministry, she couldn't say for sure that she'd really read ALL of the Bible.  So she started a chronological reading plan to read it all, even the genealogies. But as she read, Tara had to wrestle with stories she'd never heard from the pulpit.   “I was questioning the Bible because I was reading the Bible and I was questioning not is this true, but is he good? Yeah. Do I like him? My mentor said the places where you have difficulty with God lean in because the good stuff is on the other side of this. The good stuff is on the other side of this struggle.” After completing her own journey of reading the full Bible and seeing scripture and God in a new way, Tara-Leigh created The Bible Recap podcast and book to help others encounter God through his Word. And she's here to give us a pep talk for reading the full Bible too.  “You behold the living God in scripture, and all of a sudden, instead of feeling burdened by your to-do list, you're going to be buoyed and carried along by the love of the God of the universe and by the person of who he is. And that's what I want you to take away from scripture every day, a vision of the God who loves you and who has already accomplished all that he requires of you.” Summer of Mentorship Discussion questions PDF  Connect with Tara-Leigh:  Website:  www.taraleighcobble.com  The Bible Recap: www.thebiblerecap.com  Instagram: @taraleighcobble  Links Mentioned:   The Bible Recap: A One-Year Guide to Reading and Understanding the Entire Bible Listen to the Bible on YouVersion Featured Sponsors:  Thrive Market: Go to ThriveMarket.com/DMA and start saving today.

Markets continue to hover around the 20-DMA. There is a negative divergence between momentum and the market rally, with buying participation and money flows being very weak. Retail "dip-buyers" continue to step in to nibble at every dip in the market. Markets will again provide clearance above the 20-DMA, which will validate the test of that level. Relative strength is beginning to recover from Friday's sell off. Just because we had a one-day sell off does not necessarily mean the correction is over; be cautious in your risk taking. There is no sign of concern for a correction; portfolio insurance in the form of Puts is very, very cheap now. That is a good contrarian indicator that risk still exists in the market.

Technical Analysis is a good way of seeing what the herd is thinking; it's a representation of market psychology. Those who characterize technical analysis as "voodoo" actually take the rules a little too literally. We suggest using stop loss levels as a measure, and when those stops are triggered, either pay attention to find a bounce to sell into, or that stock will confirm support from a previous level. Why is this relevant? We violated the 20-DMA this week. That does not necessarily mean we're going into a bigger correction; the violation WAS a warning sign that markets COULD work their way lower. This is where PATIENCE is important in using technical analysis. IF markets stay below the 20-DMA thru Friday, that's a confirmation of the break. If markets close above this level on Friday, then the break below was just a violation; if they close BELOW that level, it's a confirmation of the break, and a key to watch for markets to go lower towards the 50-DMA. Be cautious about knee jerk reactions because of a technical break; you could get whipsawed.  Hosted by RIA Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO  Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Watch the Video version of this report on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNJPwrh0f4E&list=PLwNgo56zE4RAbkqxgdj-8GOvjZTp9_Zlz&index=1  ------- Get more info & commentary:  https://realinvestmentadvice.com/insights/real-investment-daily/ ------- Register for our next Candid Coffee, "Savvy Social Security Planning," August 23, 2025: https://streamyard.com/watch/pbx9RwqV8cjF ------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #TechnicalAnalysis #StopLoss #MarketRisk #MarketCorrection #MarketRally #Palantir #20DMA #50DMA #100DMA #200DMA #InvestingAdvice #Money #Investing

Palantir knocked the cover off the ball with last night's earnings report, but since the company is not as large as, say, Apple, Google, or Meta, that's not going to provide quite as much lift to the markets. Following two sell-offs Thursday and Friday, markets on Monday executed a nice one-percent move to the upside, making for TWO one-percent moves in two days to reclaim the 20-DMA. The issue now is whether markets can hold onto the gains and stay above that level for the remainder of the week. Such would also remove the risk of markets further dipping to the 50-DMA. Relative Strength also saw a decent bounce on Monday. However...pay attention to what's happening, because risk DOES still remain.

There is often a disconnect from what we read in scripture and how we experience life. God says, “I have not given you a spirit of fear,” but we keenly feel fear and anxiety. We know that God has saved our souls through Christ's death and resurrection, but we still feel like past wounds/choices/lies come between us and hearing His voice.  One powerful way to work towards freedom in these areas is through a biblically-based program of inner healing prayer. My guest Jennifer Barnett of Freedom Prayer joins me to talk about inner healing prayer or freedom prayer, a powerful process that helps restore individuals to a more fruitful and fulfilling walk with God. “Inner healing prayer is its own sort of type of prayer. If you're not familiar with it, we would say it's some really intentional time devoted to allowing God to remove anything that would hinder someone from a full abiding relationship with him. That could look like sin, wounding, ungodly beliefs, or lies that we believe about ourselves, God or other people.” My experience with inner healing prayer has been so powerful and I believe it can be for you too.

Markets have just concluded one of the longest stretches of stocks running above their moving averages, and of not having a +/- move in a single day; 72-days with out that occurring, the longest stretch since 1968. That all ended on Friday: We took out the 20-DMa, and had a 1.75-percent drop. We took a very over-bought relative strength index and crammed it to the bottom of its trading range in one day. IT should be no surprise to see a bit of a reflexive rally this morning in attempt to recover some of Friday's decline. Today's question is whether markets can get back above the 20-DMA and reverse that break.

Markets are doing just fine despite a sell-off towards the 20-DMA, but did not close at that level. Markets will likely have a positive day Thursday overall. Markets are still very over bought, which will limit upside action; still very close to moving up to 6,400 on the S&P (a little hard to believe following April's 20% drop FROM 6,000 and we're now back almost to 6,400). Markets are getting fairly extended, although risk is contained for the moment; earnings are coming in much better than expected. There is still a lot of bullish bias in the markets, and that's keeping things elevated. Apple and Amazon report today, and there's a risk that if either one misses, it could pull back markets tomorrow. We're now entering the end of summer; August is considered a weaker month for markets, even in a bullish environment.

Markets continue to perform bullishly, stringing together a sixth day of gains on Monday. If Tuesday follows suit, markets will stretch out a line of positive closes stacking up against an inevitable down day, sooner or later. The question is whether markets will cross the 20-DMA: A pullback to 6,260 would not be surprising at all. WHEN that happens, we'll look next to the 50-DMA at around 6,280 and to the 200-DMA below that at 5,870. All that to say, there is some downside risk to the market. Meanwhile, Emerging Markets are improving, but still trading sideways; as money flows head back into the U.S. Emerging Markets and Gold are tending to lag the S&P. Money flows are always looking to where they'll get appreciation. Right now, Stocks are doing that trick very well.

A few years ago, my friend Kelsey Philips hit a crisis in her life. She felt physically unwell, depressed and desperate for healing. She connected with a missionary couple from her church who prayed with her and over her for two hours. It was in that prayer time that Kelsey recognized God's voice for the first time. “He had been speaking to me for a long time. I just didn't know it was him. When you have an encounter like that, he speaks to these places that are so deep. He is healing wounds that are so far back and he is breaking you free of chains that are so heavy and hard and real. You don't ever want to go back to a place where you don't have that.” I believe we can hear God's voice and that he is still speaking today. As Kelsey reminds us, there's no better time than now to practice listening to the Lord.  “It does require solitude and quiet and that is not our nature. But here we are in a season where we are in worldwide rest. We are forced into this place of quiet. We've all had to come off of the hamster wheel and this has been an incredible time to allow space to listen to him about what he's doing on so many levels.” *this episode originally aired in March of 2020 Summer of Mentorship Discussion questions PDF  Links Mentioned:   Novo Missions [WEBSITE] Listening Prayer [ARTICLE]  Where to Start in Listening Prayer–Friendship Questions [PDF] Hello Mornings [WEBSITE] Additional Resources: Hearing God:  Developing a Conversational Relationship with God by Dallas Willard The Joy of Listening to God:  Hearing the Many Ways God Speaks to Us by Joyce Huggett Whispers:  How to Hear the Voice of God  by Mark Batterson  Group Discussion Questions: Take a few moments to check in with your group.

We're about to enter the two months of the year when volatility begins to pick up; August and September tend to be weaker months. Markets have had a very long stretch with minimal movement. Two things to note: Markets have been above the 20-DMA for 68-days (one of the longest stretches in history). Money flows are beginning to decline, which is a sign of investor exhaustion. Sentiment and positioning are very bullish, and there has been excess speculation as the market has continued to grind higher. At this point it is reasonable to expect a short-term pullback, or at least a consolidation in the market.

Markets opened lower on Tuesday, and rallied back in the afternoon; on Monday, markets opened higher, and fell off. Markets just aren't making much headway. Markets are still stringing together the longest run of days above the 20-DMA. This all suggests that we are going to get a correction at some point. Relative strength is in a negative divergence while the market is going up. That's a warning sign, and there's also a negative divergence in momentum as the market is moving higher, at the same time. This DOESN'T mean the market is going to crash, but it DOES bring up the risk of at least a short-term correction.   Hosted by RIA Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO  Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Watch today's video here: https://youtu.be/TYCtn9zlFKU ------- Articles mentioned in this report: "Retail Speculation Is Back With A Vengeance" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/retail-speculation-is-back-with-a-vengeance/ "Company Buybacks Are Surging" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/company-buybacks-are-surging/ ------- Get more info & commentary:  https://realinvestmentadvice.com/insights/real-investment-daily/ ------- Register for our next Candid Coffee, "Savvy Social Security Planning," August 23, 2025: https://streamyard.com/watch/pbx9RwqV8cjF ------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #MarketRally #MarketRisk #MarketCorrection #MovingAverages #NegativeDivergence #RelativeStrength #Momentum #20DMA #50DMA #100DMA #200DMA #InvestingAdvice #Money #Investing

Bonds have been trapped in a trading range for some time, with Yields stuck at around 4.3-4.4%. This is a function of economic growth and inflation. If you want to know where interest rates should trade (in terms of the Ten-year Treasury), it's GDP + Inflation: There is about an 84% correlation going all the way back to 1970. Technically speaking, there's a giant wedge being built into Yields, and they're going to break out to one side or the other. If to the upside, rates will move up to about 4.8%, maybe 4.9%; some kind of inflationary pressure is going to be needed to raise that rate above GDP to add to that total return. However, if the economy slows, we could see Yields break down below the wedge, putting rates closer to 4%, maybe 3.5%. The rest of the markets are doing fine for now. Another wedge pattern is also developing, and a break out to the downside is going to lead to that correction we've been expecting. Interestingly, the NASDAQ has traded above its 20-DMA for over 60-days, the longest such stretch since 1999. Money flows are extended; that typically marks market peaks. Retail trading flows appear to be reaching a level of exhaustion.   Hosted by RIA Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO  Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Watch today's video here: https://youtu.be/TYCtn9zlFKU ------- Articles mentioned in this report: "Retail Speculation Is Back With A Vengeance" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/retail-speculation-is-back-with-a-vengeance/ "Company Buybacks Are Surging" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/company-buybacks-are-surging/ ------- Get more info & commentary:  https://realinvestmentadvice.com/insights/real-investment-daily/ ------- Register for our next Candid Coffee, "Savvy Social Security Planning," August 23, 2025: https://streamyard.com/watch/pbx9RwqV8cjF ------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #MarketRally #MarketRisk #MarketCorrection #MovingAverages #Bonds #TenYearTreasury #GDP #Inflation #20DMA #50DMA #100DMA #200DMA #InvestingAdvice #Money #Investing

We know that God's word is living and active.

Markets are overbought and very extended above moving averages. This is neither out of the ordinary or a crisis situation. Markets are still flirting with all-time highs, but the deviations are important to pay attention to: Moving averages are like gravity, pulling indexes back towards the center. There is still support for stocks, thanks to earnings activity, but once the reporting is done, the focus will return to economic data, and that's when stock will be most susceptible to the gravitational pull. Economic data is okay, but not great, and a pullback to the 200-DMA (worth about 6%) would be no surprise. Investors should expect a 3-5% correction around August or September.   Hosted by RIA Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO  Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Watch today's video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmJdcv12lGA&list=PLwNgo56zE4RAbkqxgdj-8GOvjZTp9_Zlz&index=1 ------- Articles mentioned in this report: "Retail Speculation Is Back With A Vengeance" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/retail-speculation-is-back-with-a-vengeance/ "Company Buybacks Are Surging" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/company-buybacks-are-surging/ ------- Get more info & commentary:  https://realinvestmentadvice.com/insights/real-investment-daily/ ------- Register for our next Candid Coffee, "Savvy Social Security Planning," August 23, 2025: https://streamyard.com/watch/pbx9RwqV8cjF ------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #MarketRally #MarketRisk #MarketCorrection #MovingAverages #GravitationalPull  #RiskManagement #PortfolioRisk #PortfolioManagement #20DMA #50DMA #100DMA #200DMA #InvestingAdvice #Money #Investing

Earnings Season continues to roll, and the window for the buy back window won't be open until the end of the month. Starting today, markets tend to enter a seasonally-weaker period of the year as investors process earnings and volatility begins to tick higher. Market action has already been slack over the past couple of weeks, and it's highly deviated from moving averages. A reversal back to the 200-DMA is worth a 6% decline, a move that would be well-within historical norms. Of concern now is the high levels of retail investor speculation, making up about 14% of trading volume. That's more than was seen during the "meme mania" of 2021 (12%). Such spikes in speculation typically occurs at a market peak, and is a set up for market correction. We cannot stress enough the importance of taking opportunity to rebalance risk and take profits now. A 6% correction ain't nothin'.   Hosted by RIA Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO  Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Watch today's video here: https://youtu.be/VDnRZFc0Hpw ------- Articles mentioned in this report: "Is The Dollar Setting Up For A Comeback?" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/is-the-dollar-setting-up-for-a-comeback/ "Relative Returns Or Absolute.

If God is holy, then He can't sin. If God can't sin, then He can't sin against you. If He can't sin against you, shouldn't that make Him the most trustworthy being there is? I'm thrilled to have Jackie Hill Perry back on the podcast to share about her much anticipated book, “Holier Than Thou”. She walks us through Scripture, shaking the dust off of “holy” as we've come to know it and revealing it for what it really is: good news. As it turns out, God being “holier than thou” is actually the best news in the world, and it's the key to trusting Him. “Holiness is really abstract, but what does it have to do with me? The truth is it has everything to do with the way we live because the way we engage with the world around us is symptomatic of what we believe is true about God.” We also chat about how Jackie doesn't “mom alone,” about her growing family and the holy calling of motherhood.

How does that change how you look at parenting in the little years?

Benjamin and Chance discuss the Liquid Glass design changes that came as part of iOS 26 beta 3, debate whether it looks better, and whether it retains the spirit of what Apple presented in June.

Plus, Apple formally appeals the EU on anti-steering requirements, and Jeff Williams announces his retirement in the latest significant shakeup of the Apple leadership team.

Do you long to go deeper in your faith and help your children fall in love with Scripture — not just the stories, but the whole story?  Today Zach Windahl shares what led him to dedicate years to studying scripture. He emphasizes the importance of simplifying the Bible for others, particularly for those who feel overwhelmed or confused. After moving to Australia and enrolling in a transformative Bible study program, everything changed. He discovered how the entire Bible connects — from Genesis to Revelation — and how understanding Scripture through a Hebrew lens opens up a whole new depth of meaning. The Bible isn't random. Every story, every verse, every command points to Jesus. Here is some of what we cover:  Why modeling your faith matters more than preaching to your kids The difference between a Greek vs. Hebrew mindset when reading Scripture What to do when Christian culture and actual Jesus living don't align Connect with Zach Windahl:  Website:  Zach Windahl Facebook: Zach Windahl | Facebook Instagram:  Zach Windahl (@zachwindahl) Links Mentioned:   The Bible, Simplified: By Zach Windahl The Bible Study: By Zach Windahl See the Good: By Zach Windahl Practicing the Way: By John Mark Comer Revolutionary Parenting: By George Barna Zach Windahl – The Brand Sunday Related Episodes: Consistency in Bible Study :: Katie Orr [Ep 352] Every Mom a Theologian :: Phylicia Masonheimer [Ep 389] Why Read the Entire Bible :: Tara Leigh Cobble [Ep 312] Featured Sponsors:  Thrive Causemetics: Try your new trusty favorites with an exclusive set for our listeners.

Knox and I recently had the incredible opportunity to go on a Compassion International vision trip to El Salvador. Today, I'm joined by my friend Nicki Koziarz to help recap this life-changing experience. Nicki is an author, Bible teacher, and podcaster—and also a mom of six, including three boys adopted from Haiti. She brings a powerful perspective on the global impact Compassion is making and the heartbreaking reality that, in many cases, poverty is the only reason a mother has to give up her child. We dive into how Compassion is partnering with local churches to go into the hardest places—providing food, medical care, and the hope of Christ to transform lives and futures. Nicki also shares about their amazing Survival Program, which walks alongside mothers from pregnancy through a child's first year, ensuring families have the support they need to stay together when possible.  I'm so grateful for the chance to witness firsthand what God is doing through Compassion in El Salvador—and I can't wait to share more with you in this episode.
