Up, up, and away has certainly been the theme for stocks all Spring. Actually, blast off is more like it. Nothing has stalled this mighty ascent. Tech Stocks continue to lead the charge higher. The Stock Market hasn’t cared about rising interest rates, high gas prices, nagging inflation nor a war in the Middle East. It just has not cared. It’s also caught so many by surprise...

The widely anticipated Beijing summit has come and gone. There was pomp, circumstance, and a whole lot of handshakes. But there was very little in the way of meaningful action. There were no major breakthroughs. There were no confirmed deals. The result is seemingly more stability in the relationship of the 2 superpowers and the status quo for policies. In other words, they kicked the can down the road, hand in hand, with smiles...

Deal or no deal? The ceasefire is on or off? The situation is beyond confusing. The conflict in Iran has been head-spinning, and the price of Oil has reflected the volatile news flow. WTI fell below the $100 level. But it remains elevated in the mid $90s. The December contract is holding pretty firm just below $80. That suggests supplies should improve towards year-end. But that isn’t helping prices at the pump, which are north of $6 in many California cities. High prices continue to take a toll on the American Consumer. The price of Oil was $55 just before the conflict...

Unfazed: That pretty much sums up the Market’s response to the ongoing conflict with Iran. The price of crude surged back above $100 this week. The Market barely blinked. It’s been trying to move past the conflict. Politics and geopolitics definitely can influence price action. But more than anything else, it’s earnings that drive stock prices. We are smack dab in the middle of Q1 Earnings Season and this was the biggest week. The Tech Titans took the field. This, in addition to a Fed meeting, a Royal visit, new data for the U.S. Economy and a surprising OPEC departure. It was quite a week. In the face of so many issues, risks and events, the Stock Market remains all Bulled-up. Here’s another rapid rundown of what happened and why it matters...

The remarkable run this Spring continued as the Stock Market shook off the concerns surrounding the Middle East and hit fresh, all-time highs. The S&P surged in April as fast as it fell in March. These V-shaped moves have become quite familiar. It happened during Covid. That’s what went down last Spring around the tariff tantrum. That’s precisely what’s happened around the conflict in Iran. It goes from Bull to Bear, back to Bull in a flash. The Oil down, Stocks up tether is firmly in place. Right now, this Market is all Bulled up...
