My Top Stock as the Bond Market Breaks Down

by | Dec 29, 2021 | Stock Market Sectors

The bond market finally started to break down while the Dow approached a turning point — and more in Wednesday’s stock market recap.

I’ve been short the bond market for a while now, and we’re starting to see the kind of action I’ve been predicting. 

The iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (Nasdaq: TLT) is down and trading near its 50-day moving average of about $148 per share. More downside is likely in store, so it could drop further to around $146.

The Dow has come up in line with its recent high, and has a good chance of breaking through that level of resistance and heading higher.

Elsewhere in the news, we have the international trade in goods and services report coming Wednesday, while Thursday brings with it the latest jobless claims report. 

In this morning’s stock market recap video, you’ll discover whether the Dow is going to break new highs… an update on crucial momentum levels… a complete review of the 11 major S&P 500 sectors… whether momentum levels are catching up with the market… if bonds will finally break down and how far… and the strongest and weakest stocks I’m targeting right now — with price levels!
