Money flows into Gold ETFs have continued and increased through its decline with September showing the biggest net inflows since 2022. One can argue that they represent confidence or too persistent optimism, though. Chart courtesy of @johnauthers.

As we enter earnings season, the question is what will satisfy the mkt when expectations are so high? Earnings have been the sustenance keeping this bull mkt alive. Great expectations create a fertile ground for disappointment. Charts courtesy of @johnauthers

Economists may see moderating inflation relatively soon but the consumer does not. The NY Fed Survey of Consumer Expectations shows that they expect inflation at the 3.9% level out one year. That won't help the Republican cause at the midterms. Chart courtesy of @johnauthers.

The 10-year Treasury yield has hit its highest level since 2002. Normally, a move of this magnitude would spell trouble for stocks. So why are equities holding up? @johnauthers explains 🎥

Many of you have heard me say for a while now that earnings from tech companies in particular have acted as a powerful shield for stock markets, deflecting what has been a notable series of external shocks.

Per @johnauthers, half of $NDX's rally of 6.4% last week came from just 5 stocks, $MU, $AMD, $NVDA, $INTC & $META while 32 components declined. Since the Chat GPT launch, the consequences of concentration have been dramatic. Compare cap-weighted $NDX vs the equal-weighted $NDXE.
