12:00 TUESDAY – Stock Market Report #137 – 10/26/21

by Robert Holman | The Defensive Advisor | www.defensiveadvisor.com

INSIDE: Current market rating, the economy, and a free offer.

MARKET RATING … Staying at 7 (where 0 - 4 is bearish, 5 is neutral, 6 - 10 is bullish). Last week I noted the rally phase entered on Wed 10/13, so now my risk concerns are abating and my optimism is rising.

Leading groups/sectors currently are certain groups within Financials and Energy. Tech groups mainly alternate between leading and lagging. Certain consumer discretionary groups look good, too.

ECONOMY … THE FED NEEDS TO GET ON WITH IT. CONGRESS NEEDS TO GET ON WITH IT. Unexpected developments in either could derail the rally taking place, but absent that, it looks like clear sailing ahead.

EARNINGS … So far, 3rd Qtr. Earnings, and/or forecasts for the 4th quarter, have been better than expected, so we will probably head up for a while. I’m making new commitments with our available funds.

PORTFOLIO … Just click here, and I’ll be happy to send you a complimentary portfolio evaluation – explaining what’s good in your portfolio, how your portfolio is likely to perform in the upcoming economic environment, pointing out any flaws we find in your portfolio, and giving you our ideas for improvement – all at no cost to you.
