    11-12-25 XLE Energizes Markets | Before the Bell

    Markets opened weakly on Tuesday but finished in the green as Buy-the-Dip traders stepped back in. The S&P 500 bounced off its 50-DMA and is on the verge of a momentum buy signal, while relative strength continues to improve — a bullish sign for near-term market direction. Rotation remains the key theme: Energy (XLE) is starting to lift, even with oil prices steady. Natural gas could see rising demand as AI-driven data centers strain the power grid. Consumer Staples are beginning to recover as investors rotate toward defensive names. Lance Roberts explains how sector rotation is shaping market momentum — and what it means for portfolio positioning as breadth improves.

    The Buy-the-Dip crowd showed up again as markets tested the 50-DMA. Despite weak breadth and last week's Tech pullback, buyers quickly returned to the sector—proving this market still runs on liquidity and momentum. Lance Roberts breaks down what's driving this move and what investors should watch next: Why defensive sectors are quietly leading the market How the RSP Equal-Weight Index signals a potential broader rally The impact of $6 billion per day in corporate buybacks Why early December weakness could set up another buying opportunity 👉 Stay defensive, stay disciplined, and stay tuned.

    11-6-25 Nvidia's Money Loop: Smart Move or Red Flag?

    Nvidia just took a $1 billion stake in Nokia—and Nokia plans to spend that money buying Nvidia's own AI chips. It's not the first time. Nvidia's done similar deals with OpenAI, CoreWeave, and xAI, fueling record demand for its GPUs. But is this smart strategy—or circular financing? Some call it vendor financing, others say it's round-tripping—a tactic that helped inflate the dot-com bubble two decades ago. Lance Roberts & Michael Lebowitz unpack how the AI industry may be funding itself, why that's raising eyebrows, and what investors should watch for as the hype builds. 0:19 - Are Tariffs a Tax? 4:03 - Buy-the-Dip'er's Continue their March 8:40 - Michael's Fed re-cap - Stealth QE? 14:08 - Where is All the Liquidity Going? 17:45 - What Will Trigger QE? 19:16 - The Fed's QE Trap 21:13 - Stress in the REPO Market 24:15 - Market Froth & Valuations - the Mag-7 28:57 - Where the Debt is Piling Up in Anticipation of AI Build 33:32 - Nvidia's Infinite Money Loop 37:32 - What If Projections & Expectations Are Not Realized? 42:55 - Looking at CAPE (as Nvidia is 8% of Market) Hosted by RIA Advisors Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO, w Portfolio Manger, Michael Lebowitz, CFA Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Watch Today's Full Video on our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBMx8sckBhk&list=PLVT8LcWPeAugpcGzM8hHyEP11lE87RYPe&index=1&t=5s ------- Articles Mentioned in Today's Show: "Nvidia Deals: Round Tripping Or Vendor Financing?" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/nvidia-deals-round-tripping-or-vendor-financing/ -------- The latest installment of our new feature, Before the Bell, "Buy-the-Dip Isn't Dead Yet" is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UU_zCk3hYhs&list=PLwNgo56zE4RAbkqxgdj-8GOvjZTp9_Zlz&index=1 ------- Our Previous Show, "6 Moves You Should Make Now Before RMDs Start," is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0B99SnHJ4U&list=PLVT8LcWPeAugpcGzM8hHyEP11lE87RYPe&index=1&t=24s ------- Get more info & commentary: https://realinvestm entadvice.com/newsletter/ -------- SUBSCRIBE to The Real Investment Show here: http://www.youtube.com/c/TheRealInvestmentShow -------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #BuyTheDip #SP500 #MarketBreadth #Investing #PremarketUpdate #Nvidia #ArtificialIntelligence #StockMarket #TechInvesting #FinancialEngineering
