The major indexes are flat as investors weigh recession risks — and more in Monday’s stock market recap.
A lot of institutions and professional traders are already taking time off as we head into the holidays, leaving the market to smaller retail traders.
Any moves that occur during market hours during this time of the year tend to not be sustainable — without much volume, there’s not a lot of follow-through.
During times like these, I like to exercise more caution and hesitate to react to both breakouts and breakdowns.
In this morning’s stock market recap video, I’ll discuss important levels on the bond market… key reports to keep an eye on this week… and why I don’t think we’ll have a Santa Claus rally this year!

With the markets so unpredictable and volatile lately, it’s been tricky to trade, even for pros.
That’s why I love my Quantum Indicator.
It allows me to quickly scan for stocks due for a pullback or bounce, signaling potential long and short trades.
And I’m going live at 1 p.m. ET on Wednesday, Dec. 21, to share how it works… what it’s signaling… and how it can be a great addition to any trader’s toolbox.
P.P.S. When it comes to trading, every second counts. And in choppy markets like these, often driven by headlines, stocks can make big moves in a flash.
That’s why I want you to get my latest trading ideas and market updates as fast as possible. So I’m rolling out an all-new option for my students to receive trade alerts with Telegram!
Telegram allows me to get trade ideas, videos and watchlists to you in a matter of seconds.
Check out this short article we put together with instructions on how to download telegram and access my private channel. Go here to get the details.
To kick off the week, each Monday video will outline my weekly outlook and any actionable announcements, news or catalysts I’m watching. I’ll also outline exactly which opportunities I expect to unfold in the coming five trading days, so check out this short video for more information!
