Wall Street is braced for a tougher Fed, the median stock is stalling at old highs, and small caps are heavily shorted. Ross looks at why that combination could set up some unusually violent breakouts.

Hedge funds are cutting risk hard across the market – yet one group is seeing some of the strongest buying in years. Ross explains why that divergence is catching his eye.

A Fed decision, weakening breadth and persistent bearish sentiment all point one way. But there’s a reason that setup may not play out the way most traders expect.

The S&P 500 is still near record territory. But one measure of extreme valuation looks far less stretched than you’d expect – and the reason points to something happening underneath the surface.

The headlines still sound gloomy. But one broad measure of economic activity just hit its strongest level in more than four years – and corporate forecasts are moving the same way.

Something underneath this market is deteriorating fast. But another signal is moving in the exact opposite direction.

September has a terrible historical reputation, but the market still hasn’t given traders the kind of volatility signal that has paid this year. Ross is watching something else instead.

Some of the biggest forces in this market are pulling in different directions right now. Ross explains why that may create more opportunity beneath the surface than the indexes suggest.

More stocks are breaking down, while short interest is climbing to levels we haven’t seen in years. That combination can create a very different kind of opportunity when price finally turns.
