The major indexes slumped Thursday morning on rising rates and recession fears — and more in Thursday’s stock market recap.
St. Louis Federal Reserve President James Bullard said Thursday that “the policy rate is not yet in a zone that may be considered sufficiently restrictive.”
His remarks indicate the Fed’s interest rate hikes are far from over, sparking fears that higher rates will send the U.S. economy into a recession.
Meanwhile, chipmaker NVIDIA Corp. (Nasdaq: NVDA) reported mixed earnings as sales from its gaming division fell 51%, while its data center business saw sales growth of 31%. The news sent shares lower in premarket trading along with the broader market.
In this morning’s stock market recap video, I’ll discuss why I’m turning bearish on blue chips… what market internals are pointing to right now… which sectors show the most vulnerability… the big reports markets need to digest in the next few hours… earnings numbers that are showing a clear pattern… plus the strongest and weakest sectors right now!

P.S. The Fed Did It Again
When the Federal Reserve raises rates, the markets flip out… And certain sectors get out of balance.
November was no different… but members of our Alpha Rotation strategy didn’t sweat it.
Because our powerful ETF-rotation strategy helps them capitalize on only the STRONGEST sectors — while we also short the WEAKEST.
You have to see this in action!
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.
