I'm gonna skip all the "it's Trump's fault I can't trade" posts. So here's two things:

1. We know Trump is watching the numbers which is a good thing

2. The US is poised to have inflation no matter who sits in the Oval office. This problem began in 2008 with non-stop printing of the dollar by Bernanke (started under the management of Paulson and company). This printing money policy with nothing backing it will always lead to inflation but the bigger question is will it lead to hyper-inflation? Lowering rates will eventually take us there in the long run imo but not now.

Yes, but it's not the same situation. Now you're at 120. You're spending well over a trillion on interest, and the bond markets are saying they need to go higher.
This is why people speak with a sense of urgency, and why Trump is taking a Hail Mary approach rather than fulfilling his election promises, with Musk. It's not anti-American rhetoric at all.

Haha. You're not wrong...going outside is a good move!

We have been speaking about this on and off: July is seasonally good for stocks (quite positive over the past 10-20 years). The late July > early October season, however, has NOT been very rewarding. If the annual returns in the /we have been 8%+, the next three months have returned around just 0.5-1.0% (too lazy to go back and look at my exact numbers).

As I said earlier this week during the pullback, ATHs by July expiration could be a thing we see. Whether there is a nice melt up that continues through tech earnings is another question. I really HOPE that there is (as I remain as long now as I was to start the year), BUT, in the back of my mind are the recent August issues (US downgrade a few years back...Yen unwind a couple of years later) and the fact that I am constantly saying "wake me up when September ends" leads me to "feel" that a completely natural ~5% pullback is entirely plausible during the upcoming few months.

All that said, the chance does certainly exist that we see a slow, steady period of consolidation meandering through October which nets the same, seasonal 0.5% returns but WITHOUT any pullback.....or, of course, that we roll higher and higher into the end of the year and just never look back.

The industry is calling for a pullback....so things likely roll higher (for another couple % anyway).

In all, I do NOT anticipate another bear barley collapse on the horizon....but don't see an extra 10% up over the next three months either (though I wouldn't be mad if the latter happened

)

Unfortunately the morons in DC will have to be forced into doing something. They will do something about it, they will have no choice, but only after the markets make them address it. Bond yields will spike, stocks will fall hard, then they will start thinking about what to do. But the market has to move first. As is the markets are doing exactly what they want, dollar and yields are steady and within their longer term ranges, stocks at all time highs. Why would they panic now? That’s why I said before that I’m not going to trade or worry too much about it until the market actually shows me there is a problem.

Markets can do whatever they want whenever they want for any reason they want. Market might fall 5%+ or keep going up anther 5%+, that’s a statistical fact. The higher stocks go the more likely they are to go higher, this is also a statistical fact. Big drops are very rare, possible always, but rare.

When it comes to the mechanisms of the economy, Trump really is clueless . He sees a piece of data and latches onto it to form a narrative in his ( and only his ) mind . An economy runs on the sum of its parts , not a single data release . Government policy , particularly tariffs at no predefined level is always going to be an intangible factor in the equation . Too dumb , just doesn’t see it , or refuses to see it and acknowledge it . It’s a binary choice with his application of trying to bring a business model to an economy.

Yes.

If earnings are good and trade deals aren’t as bad as expected, there is a huge amount of cash in money markets earning very little, and that can keep us in this incredibly strong bull market. But the number I posted months ago was 6600 for the Spx, I’m not sure we can just blow through ever higher numbers. I’d honestly like to see a 10% pullback, much more fun and more trading opportunities, but a small 5% is a definite possibility as you said.

Kugler: A View of the Housing Market and U.S. Economic Outlook
From federalreserve.gov|Jul 17, 2025
Thank you, Robin. And thank you for the opportunity to speak with you today on the important topic of housing and how housing fits in with the broader economy. First, I want to step back and say that housing—our homes—has a central role in our lives beyond what statistical reports capture. Housing matters greatly for our welfare because shelter is a basic human necessity. Our homes—be it city apartments, farmhouses passed through generations, or suburban dwellings—are among the most significant places in our lives. In terms of household finances, housing is an important source of wealth for many American families. Housing also supports access to good jobs, because the jobs people can take depend on where they live and how far they need to commute. In addition, the housing sector matters a great deal to the economy as a whole, and it is an important channel through which monetary policy is transmitted. That is why I study it closely as a member of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC). From the perspective of the labor market, many workers have ties to housing-related sectors, including construction, real estate, and the mortgage finance industry. And because housing is a large fraction of household wealth, the housing market influences consumer spending. From the price-stability perspective, shelter has a large weight in measures of inflation. Specifically, shelter is currently 16 percent of the expenditures in the basket used to calculate the personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index, which is the FOMC's preferred inflation measure. Today I will discuss several aspects of housing affordability in the U.S., a topic that I know is important to many of you, as it is to me. When studying affordability, it is important to distinguish between the cost of shelter, by which I mean the cost of occupying a home, and the costs of purchasing and owning a home. I will discuss each of these in turn, with the common theme being that both are elevated from a historical perspective. Next, I will discuss some supply and demand factors that explain how we got to this point and offer some tho Fed’s Kugler Says It’s Suitable To Keep Interest Rates Stable "For Some Time" Due To Low Unemployment And Rising Prices From Tariffs Fed's Kugler: Many reasons to expect larger tariff impact coming Fed's Kugler: A restrictive policy stance is important right now to keep inflation expectations anchored.
