What the Recent Melt-Up Tells Us About Where the Market Is Heading Next
The market has been in melt-up mode for the last 2 weeks. I think everyone has been surprised by its speed and ferocity. In fact, the S&P 500 (SPY) is now less than 2% from the upper end of the range around 4,600. It’s also now only 6% below its all-time highs which means more than 50% of losses have been retraced. Is the downtrend over and is it wise to aggressively chase stocks here? Or is the range still intact and should we remain more focused on taking profits and managing risk especially as we get to the upper-end? In today’s commentary, I want to explore this question and share my thinking. Next, I want to continue my series on interesting trends that could lead to numerous opportunities.

2 Catalysts Driving the Recent Stock Market Rally
The stock market’s impressive melt-up continues. It’s simply a story of a change in emotions as nothing has changed in terms of fundamentals that would justify a more than 10% rally in less than 2 weeks. Gladly, we have been able to participate in this rally with the latest catalyst being a buyout of one of our top positions, resulting in a more than 100% gain. We also have exposure to some of the strongest parts of the S&P 500 (SPY) like energy, metals, and travel. In this week’s commentary, I want to just provide some brief thoughts on the broad market and our current strategy, then I want to pivot and talk about another big-picture idea that is a complement to recent topics, and finally, we will discuss the portfolio.

What the Recent Rally Tells Us About the Stock Market
The S&P 500 (SPY) has put together a massive rally over the last week. So far, our assessment of the market as being range-bound has been correct as we bounced with FORCE off the bottom part of the range. In today’s commentary, I want to discuss why these range-bound conditions are likely to last for longer than we’d like, update our market outlook, and then discuss 2 more trends that we should keep on our radar.

3 Dividend Growth Stocks to Buy During This Market Correction
One characteristic of a high-quality stock is a consistent track record of hiking dividends. This indicates a strong business that can thrive in all types of economic conditions, and a management team focused on returning capital to shareholders. Here are 3 such ‘dividend growth’ stocks that investors should consider: Microsoft (MSFT), Costco (COST), and AbbVie (ABBV).
2 Investing Trends to Watch and What They Mean for the Broader Market
To sum it up, the stock market is a discounting machine. And, it’s discounted a lot of risk and negativity over the past couple of months. I like the risk/reward of being aggressively long against the 4,200 level and being cautiously long against the Feb 24 low of 4,100. The premise behind this stance was that the S&P 500 (SPY) was in more of a range rather than a downtrend or bear market. Certainly, this has been validated as the market has put in a powerful bounce off these levels and is now firmly in the middle part of the range. As a result of our caution in the first couple of months of 2022 and recent aggression, our portfolio is now at its highest level in 2022. Today’s commentary is going to focus on how we will navigate this range, why my hunch is that the range and choppy conditions could persist for months, and another 2 trends to keep on our radar.

ResMed is our Growth Stock of the Week
Over the last couple of decades, there has been an explosion in ‘lifestyle’ diseases like hypertension, obesity, and diabetes. Over time, these afflictions can start affecting patients’ respiratory and sleep patterns which can exacerbate health issues. Currently, about 5% of men in the US and 3% of women have respiratory issues during sleep. And, these numbers are projected to grow at a double-digit rate over the next decade given trends in childhood obesity, diabetes, etc. Today's stock fo the day, Resmed (RMD) is a beneficiary of these unfortunate trends.
See Why Huttig Building Products is My Stock of the Week
The broader market is firmly in correction territory, while many stocks and sectors are in outright bear market territory, with the best example being high-growth, tech stocks. For example, the ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK) is down 43% YTD and off by 59% from its 52-week high in February 2021. Given this backdrop, investors need to be even more vigilant in terms of buying high-quality stocks with improving fundamentals at attractive valuations. That’s why today I want to talk about Huttig Building Products (HBP) which fits all of these criteria.
