In the latest Facts vs Feelings, Ryan Detrick, Chief Market Strategist, and Sonu Varghese, VP, Global Macro Strategist, are joined by financial journalist and TKer founder and editor Sam Ro. Together, they cover Sam's background, his curated newsletter approach, emerging data-quality issues at the BLS, and why human judgment still matters in the age of AI.Key TakeawaysWhat Sam Ro Actually Does All Day Sam is the founder and editor of TKer (pronounced ticker), a daily financial newsletter. He previously led markets coverage at Business Insider and was managing editor at Yahoo Finance. His role now is synthesizing market data and macro trends into clear, actionable insights for readers — many of whom are financial advisors.The Market Goes Up—Until It Doesn't Sam chose the slogan “The stock market usually goes up” for his newsletter because, well, the market usually goes up. But, as Sam cautions, it's important for investors to be prepared for downturns, or they can get badly dinged in the short term.Parsing the Data The group discusses a recent announcement from the Bureau of Labor Statistics about collecting less data than before, and how budget cuts and staffing issues at the bureau could lead to less accurate data collection in economic surveys like CPI and employment reports.More Than Just Statistics Sam, who majored in religion in college, discusses the notion that data only goes so far in predicting the markets. Models can't predict everything, and sometimes you just need to embrace uncertainty and have a bit of faith that the markets will sort themselves out over time.AI Can't Replace Human JudgmentWhile AI chatbots now summarize reports faster—and sometimes more eloquently—than humans, Sam stresses that interpreting nuance and making editorial decisions remain human domains.

After four weeks of testimony in Sean "Diddy" Combs's federal sex trafficking trial, his defense team hopes that they have made significant strides in challenging the prosecution's narrative. Led by attorneys Brian Steel and Teny Geragos, the defense has focused on undermining the credibility of key witnesses and highlighting inconsistencies in their testimonies. For instance, during cross-examination of "Jane," a former girlfriend who testified about coerced participation in drug-fueled "freak-offs," the defense introduced affectionate messages she sent to Combs after their relationship ended. They argued that these communications are inconsistent with claims of coercion and abuse, suggesting a more complex and consensual dynamic . Similarly, the defense questioned the timeline and details provided by Bryana Bongolan, a friend of Cassie Ventura, presenting metadata that contradicted her account of a violent incident involving Combs .Furthermore, the defense has contested the prosecution's portrayal of Combs as orchestrating a criminal enterprise for sex trafficking. They argue that while Combs's relationships may have been unconventional and at times abusive, they do not meet the legal threshold for sex trafficking. The defense emphasized that the sexual encounters described by witnesses were consensual and that the prosecution has failed to provide evidence of force, fraud, or coercion as required under sex trafficking statutes. They also highlighted the lack of testimony from alleged co-conspirators, challenging the notion of a coordinated criminal enterprise . Despite the prosecution's presentation of graphic testimonies and corroborating evidence, the defense's efforts have introduced reasonable doubt regarding the intent and nature of Combs's actions, potentially influencing the jury's perception as the trial progresses.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Parsing the specific goats - Rosh Chodesh, festivals, Yom Kippur - where each atones for specific things, and is where each thing can't usurp the atonement property of the others, or be used for other things. The particulars of the offering of the goats also make the difference in how and for what they each atone (sin-offerings have different procedures, including different locations of offering - inner and outer altars). Also, other animals that have been consecrated for the daily offerings - the consecration last for a year. If the animal develops a blemish, the sanctity can be redeemed, but what if there's no blemish, just the consecration expires. A parallel is drawn to ketoret, incense - in terms of desacralizing incense that wasn't used within the year of consecration.

May begins and stock buy backs return; earnings season has been okay, on lowered expectations. Employment report is stronger than expected, but showing slippage. Lance Roberts explores why resistance levels are challenging both bulls and bears in today's volatile market. Over the past two weeks, the market has had a furious nine-day rally, the longest winning streak in 21 years. However, there are two takeaways from such a historic advance. First, it is “bullish” as investors return to the market. However, investors should also recognize that if the rally is the longest in 21 years, then previous such rallies failed. As shown in the chart below, there have been longer rallies, with 14 trading days being the peak. But in every case, it is worth remembering the following: “Record levels' of anything are records for a reason. It is where the point was reached where previous limits existed. Therefore, when a ‘record level' is reached, it is NOT THE BEGINNING, but rather an indication of the MATURITY of a cycle.” SEG-1: May Begins & Stock Buy Backs Return SEG-2: Why Wall Street Doesn't Want You to Hold Cash SEG-3: Parsing the Employment Report: Resistance is Futile SEG-4: There is No Magic Wand in Investing Hosted by RIA Advisors Chief Investment Strategist Lance Roberts, CIO Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Watch today's video on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dNIEwh8Coc&list=PLVT8LcWPeAugpcGzM8hHyEP11lE87RYPe&index=1&t=2s ------- Articles mentioned in this report: "Resistance Is Futile” – For Both Bulls And Bears" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/resistance-is-futile-for-both-bulls-and-bears/ "Economic Decline Gains Momentum" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/economic-decline-gains-momentum/ "Spock And The Logic Based Approach To Volatility" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/spock-and-the-logic-based-approach-to-volatility/ ------- The latest installment of our new feature, Before the Bell, "Has the Market Rally Peaked?" is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeqfgKzbwJk&list=PLwNgo56zE4RAbkqxgdj-8GOvjZTp9_Zlz&index=1 ------- Our previous show is here: "Doing Debt the American Way" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8BLk9Ewn6k&list=PLVT8LcWPeAugpcGzM8hHyEP11lE87RYPe&index=1&t=1s ------- Get more info & commentary: https://realinvestmentadvice.com/newsletter/ -------- REGISTER FOR OUR NEXT CANDID COFFEE (5/3/25) HERE: https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/events/live-chat/ ------- SUBSCRIBE to The Real Investment Show here: http://www.youtube.com/c/TheRealInvestmentShow -------- 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/ #StockMarket #TechnicalAnalysis #MarketTrends #BullMarket #BearMarket #RebalancePortfolio #ReduceRisk #MarketRally #MarketRisk #MarketNormalization #RiskOff #MarketLows #ReflexiveRally #DownsideRisk #MarketVolatility #MarketCorrection #RiskManagement #InvestingTips #StockMarketUpdate #InvestingAdvice #Money #Investing

Marc Chandler, Managing Partner at Bannockburn Global Forex and Editor of the Marc to Market website, joins us to unpack another turbulent week in the markets, a look into better than anticipated economic data, whether or not we are heading towards a recession in the US, global trade tensions between the US and China, key factors for the US dollar and interest rates, the propensity of the Fed to cut rates this year, and international markets tempered by falling oil prices. Key Insights discussed: Tariff concerns ended up fueling buying into late Q1, potentially pulling demand forward from the future. Mark described this as: “We are eating our corn seed, and bringing forward economic activity that may have been a Q2 or Q3 event.” Survey data, which is considered soft economic data, continues to be weak; but the real sector hard data, so far, has been holding up fairly well. There was a good inflation reading and a solid jobs number, so hard data holding up better than soft data. Several weeks ago, in mid-April, all we read or heard about in financial media were calls for an imminent recession or even another depression. Now after a few weeks of the markets rallying, and stronger than expected economic data, those proclamations for an immediate contraction have become more muted. So are all those concerns now off the table? Mark doesn't believe a recession is imminent, but notes “We did have one quarter now of negative growth, and then you look a what the Atlanta Fed says, tracking a 1.1% annualized pace for Q2… but I'm still in the camp that there is a shadow crossing America around now. We are only in the early stages of it, like a slow moving trainwreck.” There are the drying up of container shipment from China to the US ports, and that activity is slowing down. “It's possible that we see through all this – that this is just noise, but I think something fundamental is going on when the worlds two largest economies have an embargo against one another. And that's what these high tariffs mean. It doesn't make sense really to trade with each other.” “You've got the ports and then you have the trucks… the logistics companies. This all doesn't even take into account yet all the layoffs in the US government or the restrictions in immigration…and, the consumer boycott in Europe and Canada against US brands, and the drying up of tourism from foreign bookings.” Marc is concerned that we are at the edge of an economic contraction and notes that some analyst point to certain segments of the economy that appear to already be in a recession. The US dollar has moved down to either side of that 100 level of support. Marc points out that “the dollar index peaked about a week before President Trump's inauguration, and it has been sliding ever since. He noted that it was significant that the dollar index got back up above that 100 level, because he sees an inverse head and shoulders bottom with a neckline at 100.20. If we can get some closes above that level, then it projects up to 102.40 or so.” Marc goes on to note the better-than-expected jobs data, the rise in interest rates, and the dollar momentum indicators that were oversold as more reasons he is expecting a bounce in the greenback. With regards to Fed policy, the market moved from pricing in 4 rate cuts to 3 rate cuts this year, but that is still more dovish than the central bank's messaging of 2 expected rate cuts in 2025. In addition to the bounce in the US equity markets and US dollar, we've also seen a bounce in international markets. Marc remains skeptical of the health of the global economy, and points to the sell down in oil prices as the markets looking forward to less growth globally.
