It’s Going to Be a Volatile Week – Don’t Let the Markets Trick You!

by | Dec 27, 2021 | Market Updates

It’s the last trading week of the year, the markets are set to open higher — and more in Monday’s stock market recap.

We’ll see some heightened volatility his week due to lower liquidity as a lot of investors and traders take time off for the holiday season.  

Algorithmic traders will also use this opportunity to take advantage of any vulnerabilities in the market. So we want to be careful – don’t let the market action trick you!

Elsewhere in the news, Wednesday’s report on international trade in goods and services will tell us how much of an impact omicron is having on international supply chain issues.

In this morning’s stock market recap video, you’ll learn whether the market is stable or poised to turn fast… how bullish market internals are right now… the two sectors we need to keep a close eye on this week… and whether the Nasdaq is going to make new highs and why.
