Not the typical volatility seen after a bear market bounce. A flat day here and there may mean we have seen the bottom.
 
Another flat day.

I can’t imagine a bunch of flat days before Powell has another speech, can you?

This is quite a rally. Not the flat day we had yesterday. Possible sell off tomorrow. If tomorrow is flat, I have a good feeling about things.
 
Trade balance dropped in our favor…could be the strong dollar.
Initial jobless claims for July rose to 260,000.
Non-farm payroll tomorrow..anything over 200,000 is huge IMO.
By not selling at the bottom we made back over 10% from the bottom. Still the talking heads are still calling for a recessionary drop, but there is some talk about the S&P rising to new highs EOY.

The only thing people are blaming a recession on is the Fed which is responding to a humming economy. Pretty safe to say if the economy stumbles, the Fed backs off. Job numbers and profits are strong enough to handle more rate hikes but at lower basis points. Even England agrees that rate hikes are the way to go.

You are absolutely right. Lower rate hikes are the key.
 
Another Wildcat drill success. This is a new field discovery (expect several offsets)....Still waiting on the plant to be finished and deliver.

Hydrogen "Partnership" TIFWIW.

Government initiatives in the recently passed CHIPS act to recycle and conserve helium in response to supply concerns. (Hit control F on document and search for the word helium)

A flat day. This was what I was hoping for!
 
528,000 jobs
3.5% unemployment rate….
Blowout numbers. Service sector is growing
Good foundation to build on.

I’m calling the Dow will not dip below 29k.
Dow will not exceed 35k again until the Fed announces 0.0 basis pt increases.

Dividends are still key for long term and growth should trade between the swing.
 
Commodity prices are dropping and supply is increasing. That, with small rate increases, should keep the rally going. The fed wants to get to 2% inflation in a hurry. Fortunately the fed doesn't meet until Sept. because high demand is inflationary.
