This week with inflation cooling off and the Federal Reserve balance sheet unchanged, the S&P 500 stretched to near 4,000. But Jerome Powell has made it clear that no rally can long endure, not while unemployment hovers near 3.5%. For now the structure of this bear market remains intact. 

What's more we closed last week with Implied Volatility (VIX) revisiting a 52 week low. All this to say that with another week of earnings looming and a debt limit fiasco on the horizon, all signs point to more volatility in the week ahead. 

And just for fun, we entertain the idea of a Starlink IPO and whether or not it merits considering.
