Stock Market Rally Déjà Vu?
It feels even more like deja vu as the S&P 500 (SPY) is embarking on its 3rd bear market rally of 2022 with each taking place during earnings season. Despite a handful of high-profile misses, the Q3 earnings season has continued the trend of previous ones by coming in better than expected. Given the market's oversold state and some bullish seasonals, as we begin Q4, this has been sufficient to send the market more than 10% higher over the last 2 weeks. As we covered previously, it's difficult to predict an endgame for the rally as this depends on dynamic factors like economic data and earnings, but we can be certain of its outcome.

Bear Markets Are Never Easy….Not Even for Bears
Bear markets are never easy. Not even for bears. Today's action is a reminder of that, and why the POWR Stocks Under $10's charter is to remain at least 50% invested. In a way, it reminds me of what happened in February, when markets were sinking lower on the prospects of Russia invading Ukraine. Of course, when it actually happened, markets gapped down big and then finished green on the day. In the bigger picture, it didn't impact the S&P 500’s (SPY) overall trend, but it frustrated bears, many of who were probably forced to cover or close positions at losses or with smaller profits.
