I’ve Been Warning You for Weeks…

Published January 14, 2022

A short time ago, I told you about one of my favorite short targets – the iShares Russell 2000 Growth ETF (IWO).

The IWO is a growth-focused exchange-traded fund (ETF) that represents the two areas seeing the most underperformance right now…

Small-cap stocks and growth stocks.

Then, I added IWO to my Watchlist Update as a short idea, and mentioned that growth stocks have come under some pretty heavy selling pressure over the last couple weeks.

Many hedge funds started selling the tech sector heavier than they had in more than 10 years.

Along with the persistent underperformance of small-cap stocks found in the Russell 2000, that made me believe we had a strong candidate for a short investment.

The Big Break

Well, most recently, I’ve been watching for a break of the big support level at $275.

And this past Monday, it triggered…

Remember, the small-cap stocks of the Russell 2000 index have been mostly flat for almost a year now.

At the same time, we are currently seeing a rotation out of growth stocks with high price-earnings (PE) multiples.

Taking A Step Back…

While the move may not look significant on the daily chart above, things change when we zoom out and take a look at the weekly chart.

The picture becomes much clearer…

As you can see above, the $275 area has held as support for a year.

Not only was this key support level recently breached, but the index is now trading firmly below its 50-, 100- and 200-day moving averages!

Additionally, notice the high selling volume over the last several weeks…

The numbers are in line with the selling we saw during the COVID selloff in early 2020, with relative strength also making new lows.

To me, what we’re seeing here is a big warning sign that institutions are beginning to sell in size.

And when all signs point in this direction, we should definitely take notice before it’s too late!

Embrace the surge,

Even Bill Gates himself has said that generative AI has “peaked” and that the next version of ChatGPT won’t be much better than the current version.

So where will the next wave of AI innovation – and profits – come from?

I'm a new member of 'Insider Effect' and sent a support email and was responded to within minutes. It starts very well.

I'm happy I recently opted in to the Ross Givens's Trading Club at Traders Agency (at the best and fairest offer I could possibly get). I'm new to trading U.S. stocks and options on a regular basis but it doesn't matter, Ross does all of the hard work for me while I'm trading at my own pace (he knows how to trade successfully most of the time and I know that I won't win every trade. Fair enough). He and his great team share a lot of their trading experience in live sessions. Great job. Thanks a lot!

I started with Ross Givens and Trader's Agency GOLD in September of this year and have had some significant success on all but one of the trades he suggested. I have actually made 157% in profits over what I paid to join Traders Agency within my first 30 days. I am no stock expert and I want to know more about how to invest in the market. Ross's videos and strategy sessions are very insightful, and you can chat during the sessions to get his feedback. He's got all the tools at his disposal and has set up some good algorithms in order to help one understand the chaos and fundamentals to watch for in order to make a good investing decision. I have had other investment "helpers" that never yielded what I have within such a limited amount of time. I think Ross, and his team, is the "Real Deal"
