The Biggest Report of the Quarter… Plus My Top ETF and Option Pick

by | May 26, 2022 | Market Updates

U.S. stock futures are trading higher this morning as Wall Street attempts to recover from a string of losses following strong earnings from the retail sector — and more in Thursday’s stock market recap.

Shares of Macy’s Inc. (NYSE: M) jumped about 15% in premarket trading as the company raised its profit guidance, while discount retailers Dollar Tree Inc. (Nasdaq: DLTR) and Dollar General Corp. (NYSE: DG) rose roughly 12% and 10%, respectively. 

However, my eyes are still glued to the bond market… 

The iShares 20 Plus Year Treasury Bond ETF (Nasdaq: TLT) has turned around and is starting to trade higher. Now, I don’t believe it will turn around for the long term. But it is a bullish sign that the market doesn’t believe that short-term interest rates need to go much higher.

In this morning’s stock market recap video, I’ll give you four signs that the market is recovering… a preview of Thursday’s gross domestic product report and its impact on the bond market… why small-cap stocks are turning around and what it means for the bulls… a deep dive into recent market volatility… and the one sector I’m laser focused on right now.

P.S. A lot of my students come to me because they’ve failed to make money in the stock market, or they’ve struggled with consistency…

Well, if you fail to plan, you are planning to fail… 

That’s why having a trading plan is so important, especially during the crazy conditions we’re in right now! 

So if you’re struggling to gain an edge in this market and finding yourself on the losing side of trades more often than you’d like…

It’s not your fault… 

Which is why I’ve decided to reveal my “Zip Trades” plan that I’ve been following in 2022 to smash the stock market.

I’ll give you all the details you need to execute this plan.
