    Market Pulse: Highs, Tariffs & The Fed’s Next Move
    Aug 15 2025
    Fresh news and strategies for traders. SPY Trader episode #1338. This episode provides a comprehensive financial update, noting the S&P 500's new high despite mixed Wall Street closures. Industrials are highlighted as top performers yeartodate, outpacing technology, fueled by government spending. Q2 2025 saw strong corporate earnings, but the U.S. economy grapples with rising consumer and producer costs due to tariffs. Although Q2 GDP rebounded significantly, this was partly an 'economic mirage' driven by reduced imports. Inflation remains a concern, with the Producer Price Index showing a notable increase. The labor market is cooling, and despite hotter inflation data, market sentiment still leans heavily towards a September Fed rate cut. Investment strategies emphasize diversification through broad market, industrial, value, and fixedincome ETFs, along with alternative assets like gold and real estate, while cautioning on risks like tariffs and tech concentration.

    August Market Pulse: Highs, Hopes, and Headwinds
    Aug 13 2025
    Fresh news and strategies for traders. SPY Trader episode #1336. The US stock market is reaching record highs in August 2025, driven by strong corporate earnings and the high probability of a Federal Reserve interest rate cut. While the S&P 500 and Nasdaq hit new records, supported by tech giants and surprising outperformance from Industrials, the market faces challenges from persistent inflation, a cooling job market, and ongoing tariffs. Investors are advised to consider a balanced portfolio, leveraging momentum in tech and industrials, while also seeking value in undervalued sectors like healthcare and energy, and considering fixed income for stability amid potential rate cuts. Caution is advised regarding narrow market leadership, tariff impacts, and a potential economic slowdown in the latter half of the year.
