5/21/2023 Markets were sharply higher this week, as the Big Tech & Semiconductor made higher highs. Investors are betting that the FED Tightening (raising short term Interest Rates) is over. The Markets are going up and discounting the Good News of no more FED Tightening soon. In October the Markets dropped sharply on high Inflation (Bad News), so Smart Money bought Stocks low. What did you do?
The FED has raised rates up to 5% and that is slowing down the world Economy. Crude Oil is down 34% since last May, and soon the lagging Inflation numbers should drop, maybe even going negative later this year. The Markets will be should be elated seeing Inflation Fears go away. But the low Buying Volume on this rally tells us that something is wrong, as Buying and narrow Market Breadth is a warning sign. Maybe Smart Money is taking profits now.
The Strong companies that are growing quickly are doing fine, but most are extremely over bought. And many weak Stocks that are Below the Green Line are still getting crushed.
The S&P 500 is trying to Close above Resistance of 4195, and needs to exceed that for more Market upside. But the FEAR Index (VIX) is under $17, telling us that Dumb Money is now panic Buying call options (expecting a huge rally).
We will continue to Buy strong investments on pull-backs, and not worry about it. Low Volume is our only concern.
If you continue to Follow the Green Line System, your Money should flow into the Strongest areas and your account value should be able to grow in both Bull and Bear Markets. Follow the MONEY, not the MEDIA.

QUESTION: Jose M writes “Morning, I seem to have difficulties on finding the Money Wave chart on the ETFs. Thanks.”
ANSWER: First go to MY TRADING DASH BOARD. Then the Charts with the Money Waves can be pulled up by clicking on the Symbol of the Investment on the Watch List or Current Positions links in every Daily email.
The Money Wave is the Red and Green Zone on the bottom part of the Chart. Buy when the Money Wave has gone down into the Green Zone, and then turns up above 20.
