How might markets respond to Comments from Fed Governors Esther George & James Bullard indicating they'd like to see it sooner than later? Inflation and supply chain disruptions remain a problem for the economy, and plunging consumer sentiment isn't helping, either. The lack of liquidity is the biggest risk to markets: Pay attention to market volume on buys. The differential in liquidity is the gap between buyers and sellers. Buyers are struggling with higher levels of pricing. We're once again approaching record buy backs. NASDAQ buying is occurring on much lower levels of volume. Two things to watch over next several months: Retraction in earnings estimates and tapering from the Fed. Rallies on exceptionally low volume are not a good thing for your money. - Hosted by RIA Advisors Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts -------- Get more info & commentary: https://realinvestmentadvice.com/newsletter/ -------- Visit our Site: www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to RIA Pro: https://riapro.net/home -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #Fed #Bitcoin #Gold #Stocks #Trading #Rates #Money #Markets #Finance

Following yesterday's highs, we expect markets to staganate somewhat. Meme Stocks are back in play: GameStop finding signs of life, AMC Theaters had a big day, and Robinhood, the new poster-child for meme stocks, had a nice run-up on the day. As volumes dry up, retail movement slowing, and confidence waning with a lot of sector rotation...these are signs of a later stage in advances in preparation for a correction. - Hosted by RIA Advisors Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts -------- Get more info & commentary: https://realinvestmentadvice.com/newsletter/ -------- Visit our Site: www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to RIA Pro: https://riapro.net/home -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #Fed #Bitcoin #Gold #Stocks #Trading #Rates #Money #Markets #Finance

NOTE: Watch the video version of this report by subscribing to our YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/c/TheRealInvestmentShow (8/24/21) Pfizer won the FDA's full approval for it's COVID Vaccine, and the Biden Administration credited the news for improving market sentiment. Not exactly, Joe. What we're really witnessing is a lack of liquidity in the market. There is an interesting pattern of volume & volatility spikes and drops...occuring on the 19th of each month--Options Expirations Day. Markets may make new highs in the near term, but there's not a lot of upside opportunity.

NOTE: Watch the video version of this report by subscribing to our YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/c/TheRealInvestmentShow (8/19/21) Markets sustain steep sell-off, with a 1-percent loss on the day, thanks to Fed talk of tapering quantitative easing. Money Flow Sell-signals were triggered as part of a normal correction process. Can markets hold the 50-DMA, markets' "line in the sand?" It's been a very, very long time since a test of the 200-DMA--currently 10% below current highs. The possibility is not outside the realm of normality: A 10% correction in any given year is to be expected (and if 2021 is a year in which markets to NOT test the 200-DMA, it will be only the 14th time since 1929 that's happened.) We suspect this test will occur after weaker economic growth is apparent, or the Fed admits to talking of tapering QE. Treasury yields continue to decline, telling the ugly story of what's really happening in the economy. - Hosted by RIA Advisors Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts -------- Get more info & commentary: https://realinvestmentadvice.com/newsletter/ -------- Visit our Site: www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to RIA Pro: https://riapro.net/home -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #Fed #Bitcoin #Gold #Stocks #Trading #Rates #Money #Markets #Finance
