Thursday - Patience with the Hangover

Like any hangover, this market needs some patience. More corrections are needed at this stage. The Fed warned more stimulus is needed to push US equities and therefore we experienced 8 weeks low; erasing earlier gains and ending an advance that began on Tuesday. Jobless claims comes more than expected. This time of the month is week and I think Fed will have to jump in again which we'll see the bullish trend. Apple Inc dropped more than 4% in the afternoon, dragging the S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrial Average, and NASDAQ Composite along with it. Tech-heavy Nasdaq is down nearly 10% for the month. Dollar is now testing resistance at its 50-day moving average as investors seek a haven from the recent volatility in risk assets. A close above the key level could point the way toward further gains, especially in the options market.

Sunday - Volatile Sep

The market doesn't always go up smoothly. This month has been volatile and it could go on for a while. Main US indexes finished slightly lower on Fri and dollar was about flat. Crude and crypto were a bit under pressure.  US Farmers had their third bail out ($14 billion). The funny thing about it is that China has major farm lands in US; so much for the China deal! As long as federal reserve keeps printing, this paradigm will get applied to other industries too; i.e. airlines. Trump blesses Oracle's TikTok, leaving Microsoft a looser. Snowflake IPO doubled this week; for those who could get on the initial deal though, not us. I think we should wait a bit for SNOW to drop before riding it. Similar case for Unity Software Inc (U).  Biden's chances for a 2021 presidency is growing; currently ahead of the Donald. Saudi building the city of future, the Neom.  Let me know what you think. Keep smiling and stay charitable.
