Hey, Ross here! Auto stocks have quietly outperformed the S&P 500—and even kept pace with tech—since the April bottom. Yet almost no one’s talking about them. Meanwhile, the headlines keep chasing the same tired tech narratives. I’ve learned to pay attention when a strong sector flies under the radar. In today’s Insight, I break down what this outperformance really means—and how to take advantage.

Hey, Ross here! The S&P 500 just notched 59 straight days above its 20-day moving average—something we’ve only seen a few times since 1950. A short-term pullback looks likely, and when it happens, the media will do what they always do: panic headlines and crash talk. But I’m not falling for it—and you shouldn’t either. In today’s Insight, I’ll show you why.

Hey, Ross here! Earnings season is heating up, and I’m seeing something most investors are missing. Nearly 93% of the first 55 S&P 500 companies to report have beaten expectations—well above the norm. Positive surprises like these tend to spark strong market moves, and I believe more are coming. In today’s Insight, I break down what this means for traders and where the biggest opportunities may lie.

Hey, Ross here! I just reviewed Bank of America’s latest Fund Manager Survey, and their so-called “sell signal” doesn’t line up with what’s actually happening in the market. When cash levels drop, they claim it’s bearish—but history tells a different story. I’ve watched these billion-dollar institutions manipulate narratives for years. Today, I’m calling it out and showing you how to fight back.

Hey, Ross here! The Equal-Weight S&P 500 just gave back nearly all its monthly gains—while the Nasdaq looked fine on the surface, over 80% of S&P 500 stocks closed red. That’s a clear sign the “average stock” had a rough day. Is it time to worry? Not in my view. But this could mark the start of the short-term pullback I’ve been expecting.

Hey, Ross here! July tends to be a strong month for stocks—but most of the gains usually come in the first half. We’re now entering the second half, where history shows the market often cools off… or even pulls back. I’ve been expecting this. But in today’s Insight, I share a take that might surprise you—and it could impact how you trade the rest of the month.

Hey, Ross here! Retail and institutional investors have both hit the brakes lately—and you can see that clearly in today’s chart. Even with the market pushing all-time highs, buying activity has stalled. The NAAIM Exposure Index just dipped, and retail sentiment remains shaky. But don’t mistake this pause for a drop in risk appetite. In today’s Insight, I break down why a short-term pullback doesn’t mean the bull run is over—and how I’m reading the signs under the surface.

Hey, Ross here! The S&P 500 has now closed above its 20-day moving average for 53 straight days—one of the longest streaks in the past two decades. That kind of consistency points to real strength under the surface. But when I look at similar streaks in history, they often came with a short-term breather. In today’s Insight, I break down what this streak tells us—and why a pullback may be just around the corner (and nothing to fear).

Hey, Ross here! The Nasdaq just hit fresh highs—but there’s still $7.4 trillion sitting in money market funds. That’s a massive amount of fuel for this rally. Meanwhile, retail sentiment has dipped and forward earnings estimates are climbing to all-time highs. Add in strong internals, and I see plenty of runway left in this bull market. In today’s Insight, I break down why I believe this rally has at least six more months to run—and how to take advantage.

Hey, Ross here! I just dug into the Russell 1000’s performance and spotted something interesting—July’s leaders have been the first half’s laggards. Meanwhile, the top stocks from earlier in 2025 are pulling back. That kind of rotation is exactly what keeps a bull market healthy—and when former losers start leading, it opens a powerful window of opportunity. In today’s Insight, I break down what this means and how to position yourself ahead of the next move.
