We are looking into what brought on the market rally on Monday and Tuesday. With central banks around the world telling us to pump the brakes before we cause a collapse; the Fed having a closed meeting on 10/3, and key data points showing a slow down, could we potentially see a Fed pivot or even a slowing rate hike stance?? We dive into the data, news, market moves and what stocks are seeing the biggest rally. 

Week 41, we look at some companies that are trading at a yearly low and also companies that could rally into the end of year!

Glad to say goodbye to an awful September for stocks and bonds. Can we turn anything around for October and beyond or are we in for more pain? Nasdaq reaches new yearly lows, bond market is faltering, banks are keeping more cash on hand to weather the storm and wait for better opportunities with central banks around the world continuing to raise rates. Lots of signs are showing that we could be in for more pain out there, however, lots of stocks are on sale already... so what's the play? We can certainly raise cash and wait for better opportunities, or we can begin to nibble where we see high quality names on sale. Listen in to see what names have caught my attention and my plan on how to safely add to these positions over time. 

Week 41, we look at some companies that are trading at a yearly low and also companies that could rally into the end of year!

Had enough pain in your portfolio? See what the Fed is saying and how we are trying to hit a moving target to tackle inflation, wage growth, unemployment and price spikes! 

It has been very tough out there and we are trying to keep up with all the changes that we are seeing on a daily basis in order to preserve our cash and be ready for any opportunity that is thrown our way going forward. 

We have seen a policy shift from inflation is transitory, to CPI concerns, to core inflation and headline numbers, to bringing down the wage growth, job openings to stock market and real estate pricing corrections. Where do we go from here and how can we be prepared for whats around the bend.

Week 40, we look at some companies that are trading at a yearly low and also companies that could rally into the end of year!

We take a look at the Fed funds rate decision and what their plan is for the end of the year and their current projections for 2023. While they try to hit a moving target, we as investors try to keep up with the ever changing situation that is constantly unfolding. The market traded down after some additional hawkish tone from Powell. What is our next move and when can we possibly see some cooling from the rate hikes and high inflation environment that we have been living in.

Lots of moves to be made out there in order to be ready for what the future holds! We look into ideas and themes for plays that may evolve into the next 9-12 months, in order to DCA (Dollar Cost Average) into a full size position to be ready for the moves. Other events unfold in Russia/Ukraine conflict that may have the markets looking up for Monday. CPI inflation numbers come out Tuesday which are forecasted to be lower again this month, as the Fed continues to fight back rising costs. In other areas we look at a strong USD $, new CEO announcements, return of the NAIAS (North American International Auto Show), regional banks, home builders and more!

In the Investment Challenge we have voted to add $ABBV to our portfolio for both dividends and growth with the better than expected roll-out of Skyrizi and Rinvoq. This week we look to add one of the following 5 names!
