Episode notes
6,600 Is A Pit Stop
- Craig Johnson says 6,600 is a pit stop, not the end of the bull market.
- Historical patterns suggest Oct–Dec often add ~5.6% with gains 79% of the time after a positive Aug/Sept.
Russell 2000 Leading The Broadening
- The Russell 2000 is beginning to broaden the market beyond the MAG-7 leaders.
- A breakout above prior highs would continue a historical pattern and signal wider participation.
Use Breadth To Time Defense
- Watch market breadth indicators and the number of stocks making 26-week highs.
- If those breadth metrics flip to sell signals, shift to a defensive stance.
