Hedge funds and professional managers are increasing exposure, while retail investors are beginning to re-engage after missing the recent dip. Support levels remain...

4-21-26 Overbought Market: Wait for the Pullback  | Before the Bell

4-21-26 Overbought Market: Wait for the Pullback | Before the Bell

Markets pulled back slightly Monday but remain extended above key support levels, with momentum and relative strength still in overbought territory. Historically, when prices stretch this far above moving averages, the "gravitational pull" of those averages tends to bring markets back toward support. That doesn't mean an immediate decline, but it does suggest limited upside in the near term. The easy opportunity to deploy capital has likely passed for now. A better entry point will come—either through consolidation or a pullback driven by news or shifting sentiment. While the recent rally has been strong, it has also been narrow, wi...

4-23-26 Wait for the Setup | Before the Bell

Markets continue to hold up well, but momentum is beginning to slow as overbought conditions persist. While earnings expectations and money flows remain supportive, the near-term upside appears limited without a period of consolidation or a pullback. In today's pre-market update, we discuss why patience is critical here. With key economic data ahead and uncertainty around potential Fed leadership changes, markets may need time to reset before the next leg higher. Chasing this rally at current levels could expose investors to unnecessary short-term volatility. Technically, the setup is improving beneath the surface. The 20-DMA is rising and working back above...

4-20-26 Don't Chase This Rally | Before the Bell

Markets have staged a powerful rally off the recent lows, reclaiming the 200-DMA and pushing to new highs. Historically, when markets recover that level within four weeks, forward returns tend to improve—and this time, the rebound happened in just three weeks. Momentum is strong, money flows have flipped positive, and moving averages are turning higher. So why not chase it? Because the market is now stretched. Relative strength is overbought, and prices are significantly extended above key moving averages. When markets get this far ahead of their trend, short-term pullbacks are common—even within bullish setups. Over the past two...
