    3-4-26 100-DMA: Hold or Fold? What Happens Today Changes Everything | Before the Bell

    The 100-day moving average has been the market's most critical support level since April 2025 — and this week, it's being tested again. After Monday's selloff on Middle East military escalation news, markets broke below the 100-DMA before quickly recovering above the 50- and 20-DMA. Tuesday opened ~2% below that key level, but buyers stepped in and pushed markets right back up to close AT the 100-DMA. Here's what most investors get wrong: when markets break a moving average, algorithmic trading programs and HFT systems are ALL watching the same level — and many are programmed to SELL at the 100-DMA. That's exactly what played out Tuesday. Don't panic-sell into that action. What to watch TODAY: ✅ If markets RECLAIM the 100-DMA → potential to re-enter the prior range ❌ If markets FAIL at the 100-DMA and turn lower → confirmed sell signal; time to reduce exposure and rebalance risk The bottom line: Don't make a move before today's close. Let the market tell you what it wants to do.

    3-3-26 Ten Immutable Laws of Money

    Most people will never build wealth — not because of the economy, but because no one taught them the rules. Lance Roberts & Jonathan Penn break down the 10 Immutable Laws of Money — time-tested principles that have worked for generations, regardless of your income, age, or background. From budgeting basics and crushing debt to understanding why millionaires live more modestly than you think, these laws are the foundation of lasting financial success.

    3-2-26 Is the Market Topping? Iran, AI Chaos & the Signals You Can't Ignore

    Is the stock market topping — or just catching its breath? This week, equity markets face a triple threat: an Iranian strike rattling geopolitical risk assets, an Anthropic AI capability announcement that hammered IBM, CrowdStrike, financials, and SaaS stocks, and a technical picture showing the S&P 500 slipping below both its 20- and 50-day moving averages.

    3-2-26 Will Markets Hold 100-DMA? | Before the Bell

    Markets are at a critical level — here's what to watch before the open. The S&P is sitting on 100-day moving average support after three weeks of testing, and futures point to a ~1% gap down at the open. The key question: do markets close below the 100-DMA and confirm a topping process — or do bulls recover into the close? In this pre-market breakdown: 📉 100-DMA support test & topping pattern risk 📊 RSI declining + weakening momentum signals 💵 US Dollar strengthening amid global risk-off 🛢️ Crude oil spiking — what it means for inflation & yields 📈 Bonds overbought — is now the time to take profits? Yields are elevated and overbought. If oil prices feed into inflation, we could see yields push toward 4–4.1%, which may offer a better bond re-entry point on a reversal. Oil itself is overextended from long-term means — sustainability at these levels will be a challenge. ⚠️ This video is for informational and educational purposes only.

    2-26-26 Software Stocks: Steal or Zero?

    Is AI killing software stocks — or creating the buying opportunity of the decade? Lance Roberts & Michael Lebowitz review: Since peaking in September 2025, the software ETF (IGV) has crashed 30% while semiconductors (SMH) surged 30% and broad tech stayed flat. The market is pricing in a "SaaSpocalypse" — the idea that generative AI will make traditional SaaS companies obsolete. But is that narrative right?

    2-26-26 Markets Reclaim Key Moving Averages | Before the Bell

    Markets just triggered a momentum BUY SIGNAL — here's what you need to know before the open. On Wednesday, the S&P 500 cleared both the 20-day and 50-day moving averages, reaffirming market stability after days of choppy price action below key technical levels. Sector rotation is driving the move — money is flowing OUT of Energy and Staples and INTO Technology and Growth. But the broader picture still shows a consolidation range with a topping process underway.
