The Best Long and Short Trades for Current Market Action

by | Jun 15, 2022

U.S. stock futures traded higher this morning as investors brace for what could end up being a greater interest rate hike than the market thought a few days earlier — and more in Wednesday’s stock market recap.

The put/call ratio — now at 1.13 — is still at escalated levels, which means more traders are buying puts than calls. 

But on the other hand, the Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSEArca: XLY), which tracks consumer discretionary stocks in the S&P 500, hasn’t broken its lowest low. This is a positive sign that the market bottom is near because one of the weakest sectors has held up.

So if you think the market is going to drop another 15% to 20%, you’ve got another thing coming… 

In this morning’s stock market recap video, I’ll show you what to expect from Wednesday’s Federal Reserve announcement… the biggest report of the week and what the numbers behind it mean… the top momentum indicators and what they imply about stocks right now… the top stock that’s waiting for a bounce… the weakest stock you’ll want to fade right now… and an update on the major indices and how their levels are impacting current trading action.
