Episode notes
INSIGHT

Indexes Digest Friday's Rally

  • The market is consolidating after Friday's broad rally rather than reversing it entirely.
  • Retaining gains in the upper half of Friday's range is constructive and not immediately alarming.
INSIGHT

Treasury Yields Paused After Powell

  • The 10-year yield dropped sharply Friday after Powell, but is now in an inside day consolidation.
  • This pause suggests traders are waiting for clearer direction before committing further.
ADVICE

Plan For Either Market Direction

  • Be prepared for either continued rotation or a return to prior leaders; have plans for both outcomes.
  • Use stops and position sizing to give winners room while limiting downside risk during consolidation.
