Lead-Lag Live

Unlock the secrets of market sentiment and trends with expert insights from David Keller. Discover how shifts in sentiment and investor psychology drive market movements and learn about the most effective methods for measuring sentiment—from survey data to the VIX and the all-important price action. David reveals the biases lurking in sentiment surveys and highlights the critical role of trend following in making informed investment decisions, essential knowledge for anyone looking to stay ahead of market corrections.
Explore the recent outperformance of defensive sectors such as utilities, real estate, and consumer staples, juxtaposed with the strength of cyclical sectors like energy and industrials. We'll dissect how these trends from mid-July to mid-August signal a defensive investor stance and examine the seasonality of market trends, particularly the weak months of August and September. Special attention is given to individual stocks like SMCI, shedding light on recognizing trend reversals and managing the risks tied to market corrections.
Finally, gain a strategic edge with our discussion on gold and silver investments during market inflection points, and understand why low-correlation assets are pivotal in turbulent times. We'll highlight the irregular market dynamics of 2024, the dominance of mega-cap stocks, and the evolving relationship between stocks and bonds.
