Markets Overbought Short-Term, Move Higher Still Possible
Charles Schwab's Nathan Peterson says the "really encouraging" tone in the market opened the door for a bull run. While RSI in indices and Mag 7 stocks show overbought indicators, he makes the argument for a run even higher. Nathan says data needs to "give us a reason" to show caution to reignite economic fears and reverse course of price action. He later turns to moves in Bitcoin and Ethereum. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Arora: Peak Tariff Uncertainty Behind Us, Peak Economic Uncertainty is Not
Nigam Arora says he's bullish on the markets as institutions are now in what he calls a "chase mode" of the current rally. His company's plan to take profits in Feb. 2025 on tariff uncertainty led them to reposition ahead of April's downturn and take advantage of lower prices. Nigam sees a 60% chance of stagflation, but doesn't believe a recession is imminent. On individual stocks he says today marks the first signs of capitulation for UnitedHealth (UNH). Nigam adds that his company is buying Microsoft (MSFT) and TXNM Energy (TXNM). Nigam also likes Cybersecurity stocks & Boston Scientific (BSX) in a stagflationary environment.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
