How to Take Advantage of Opportunities Created by This Bear Market
Bear markets can be brutal and messy. They often don't end until testing the resolve of investors. And even for bears, they aren't easy affairs as evidenced by the stock market's 7% pop following a soft CPI report. They also are necessary and healthy as they cleanse the financial system and economy of fraud and bad actors as we are seeing with the FTX blowup. In terms of the economy, certain parts of the economy are under pressure, but there's nothing rotten systemically or signs of excess leverage which would cause a cascade lower like 2008. In today's commentary, I want to talk about the inflation report and put it in context within today’s stock market (SPY). Then, I want to touch on the various blowups that we've seen during the bear market and my gameplan for taking advantage of the opportunities created amid the wreckage.

Inflation…How Low Can You Go?
The October CPI came in below expectations and fueled an explosive rally on Wall Street with the S&P 500 (SPY) up by more than 4% and bonds also shooting higher. In essence, the odds of a soft landing increase if inflation can turn lower and then keep moving lower. This development would also likely cause the Fed to slow its pace of hikes. Of course, the next big question, assuming that inflation has peaked, is how low will it fall? Will it plateau at higher levels or will it fall back to the 2% range? Today's commentary will explore these questions and the implications for our portfolio. Read on below to find out more…

Choppy Market Action Ahead
The S&P 500 (SPY) bear market rally came to an abrupt end amid the FOMC meeting and a better-than-expected employment report. The FOMC gave some hints about a possible slowing in the pace of hikes, but it was still hawkish on balance. The employment report showed some slowing in momentum but again was nowhere close enough to trigger a change in policy. In today's commentary, I want to go over why I am expecting choppy market action in the near-term despite these bearish developments and then review our strategy. Read on below to find out more…

Stock Market Déjà Vu…Part 2
Last week, we talked about how it felt like deja vu as the S&P 500 (SPY) embarked on its 3rd bear market rally of the year. Well, today it feels even more that way, as the market is rapidly giving back these hard-fought gains. The market is down 4% from yesterday's brief spurt higher when it seemed like the FOMC was endorsing a slowdown in the pace of hikes. But, these hopes were dashed during the press conference when FOMC Chair Powell pushed back against this notion and stuck to his hawkish leanings. In fact, he said that the terminal rate could go much higher which was the catalyst behind the selloff. In today's commentary, I want to break down the Fed meeting and then discuss why it's a bearish development for the market and confirmation of our bear market thesis. Read on below to find out more…
