In this week’s Chart of The Week, we discussed the lackluster rally attempt in international stocks relative to the S&P 500.
We concluded that the trend of underperformance remains firmly intact, which brings us to this week’s mystery chart reveal.
Let’s take a look. [Read more…]
People don’t like it when I tell them the Dow is going to 30,000. They tend to get even more worked up when I tell them it’s going to 40,000 after that.
I’m old enough to remember a time when stocks going up was a good thing. In my opinion, there is still a massive amount of underexposure in the equities market.

In this Episode of the Money Game Podcast, Pearlman goes off on what a Gamer Lamar Jackson has been. Growing up in Baltimore, Phil a big Ravens fan so we take this opportunity to talk about something really important: Going for it. We look a few weeks back when the head coach believed in Lamar’s enthusiasm to just go for it on 4th down and it most certainly paid off!

New Mystery Chart!
For those new to the exercise, we take a chart of interest and remove the x/y-axes and any other labels that would help identify it. The chart can be any security in any asset class on any timeframe on an absolute or relative basis. Maybe it’s a custom index or inverted, who knows!
We do all this to put aside the biases we have associated with this specific security/the market and come to a conclusion based solely on price.
You can guess what it is if you must, but the real value comes from sharing what you would do right now. Buy, Sell, or Do Nothing?

In this video I explain how we use this data, why we care, and when to pay attention!

Tuesday’s Mystery Chart had a lot of people talking and guessing (incorrectly, as usual), so thank you all for your feedback and participation.
Overall the feedback was the chart was a longer-term buy, but people had concerns about how far it’s run in the near-term.
With that as our backdrop, let’s get into it.
