Brace yourself… today’s show offers something that’s non-existent in the current market: optimism. Believe it or not, the widespread negativity is actually a bullish sign for investors.  On today’s podcast, I recap the last week of trading, the 40-year high in inflation, and what to expect from the Fed next week.  There are a lot of issues putting pressure on the market, but here’s the bottom line: You need to be a contrarian… especially now that nearly everyone is bearish. I also sift through the data the Fed is watching… and explain why Fed Chair Jerome Powell is about to trigger a big market rally over the next couple of months.
