INSIGHT

Market Trend Is Shifting Lower

The market's short-term trend looks like it's turning down despite a long-term bull market.

ADVICE

Protect Capital Before Momentum Reverses

Are AI stocks finally starting to crack? The Technical Trader’s Chris Vermeulen joins James Connor to warn that the S&P 500 and Nasdaq may be on the verge of a sharp pullback, or potentially something much bigger, as the Tech and AI-driven melt-up shows signs of concerning exhaustion. Chris breaks down the charts for Nvidia, Microsoft, Micron, SanDisk, and the major indices, explaining why money is now flowing out of key sectors, why breadth is deteriorating, and why these pullbacks may not be “buy the dip” at all, but the start of a scary bear market.

He also explains why precious metals could be the big winners. Chris lays out his bullish targets for gold ($5,100+) and silver ($80+) as capital rotates out of equities in a 2007-style market pattern. We also cover the risks in Bitcoin, MicroStrategy’s corporate BTC strategy, leveraged ETFs, and why dividend stocks may fall harder than many expect during a true bear market.
