After a volatile week, here with the trading day takeaways. Yahoo Finance’s Jerry Blickery, Jared.

00:04 Jared

Thank you, Josh. What bank scare? That is number one here. Let’s just skip to the regionals. You can call it a dead cat bounce, and fair enough. If you this is the green board. This is the regional banks, by the way. Fair enough, if you look at a two-day view, there’s a lot of losses to make up. But I’m going to show you some other markets. By the way, let’s just switch over to a five-day. You see a little bit of green in there. But uh let’s get back to China because if we dial back one week, that was the source of all the hiccups that we had last Friday. And Monday, we came roaring back, and so this is the week in China. ended up pretty green. Now I’m going to switch to the US. This is a five-day look. Every single sector in the green. Financials just barely like 0.001%, but I think investors will take that. Real estate, curiously, up 3.3%. That was a lead. And let’s take a look at the leading uh stocks here or leading ETFs, and I got Korea that is up almost 10%. That’s a chip player. You got stocks doing well, emerging markets, home builders, retail, everything doing pretty good. Not crypto, not IPOs, not regional banks and Ark. So there were a few stumbling blocks, and we can call that the fringier part of the market, you know, IPOs, uh classically kind of fringy. But here’s what the Dow did over this past week, 1 and 1/2%, Nasdaq up 2%, even the Russell 2000, which was down today, that was up 2.4% for the week. Now, one of the things I’m still looking at is volatility. And after that bank scare yesterday, we had a huge rise in the VIX. We got to about overnight, it opened up at about 27, 28, and it opens up around the time Europe wakes up or or starts trading around 2:00 or 3:00 a.m. Eastern, came back down to 20, but that’s still elevated. And you’re going to see, never really cracked 20 meaningfully throughout the week. So going into next week, we are still primed and we could see more market scares cause additional uh hiccups in the market, but we got to wait for those headlines and maybe they don’t come. So, notwithstanding that, pretty solid week, 10-year ends right around 4.01% uh after dipping below that yesterday. So, I’m not going to say it’s the all clear, but things definitely turned up and it’s a lot better than it could have been.

What about those surging metals, my friend?

02:10 Jared

Yeah, so on the open today, on the I think gold and silver, they both hit record intraday highs, but silver is engulfed. What is that? That’s an a bearish engulfing uh candlestick. And I’m going to show you a few examples here, and it’s across the metals complex, not copper critically. Uh but let me just show you here’s a five-day view. Let me do you one better. Here’s the intraday. The biggest loser today is palladium. Let’s just check that out. That’s down 10%. I’m going to show you a one month with candlesticks here, and you can see some kind of spotty price action, but here is today, that big red candle. And let’s go over to silver, down 5%. That is your bearish engulfing right there. Completely engulfs this bullish candle that we had there yesterday. Uh that is a big warning sign. Then we have gold. Let’s see. GC equals F. There we go. Thank you, sir. And that’s not quite the the bearish engulfing. Nevertheless, I have a technical indicator called the LaVine Top Finder, Bottom Finder. Use the top finder on gold and it says this move is on pause right now. So, we’ll have to see. Anything can happen with a parabolic market, but my indicators are saying, well, this thing is probably thrown in the towel at least for a little bit, needs to pause.

03:41 Josh

That’s gold. What about digital gold?

03:43 Jared

We will check that out as well. So, one day after I outlined the bullish seasonality call call on Bitcoin, guess what? It fell today again. So and it is below my trading range. Let me just pull this up here and I will show you. I think it hit 103, 10 104,000. Um, here’s a three-month view, and we got some candlesticks there. Let me put a line so you can uh there’s a line chart. You can see that a little easier. So, now it has decisively broken this trading range and that was kind of a critical one. I wanted to see 105 held hold. It did kind of on uh closing basis cuz if you consider 5:00 p.m. Eastern the close for that, but it really did go farther than I would like. Over the weekend, I want to see a pop back above 110,000 and I’ll tell you what, 115 is a huge area. Uh the shorts are going to be defending it and so you’re going to want to see this climb above 115 next week. If you see a sell off from 115 or thereabouts, that is another bearish indicator. We’re probably heading back down to test 100,000.

05:07 Josh

Speaking of next week, Yes. what’s on your radar?

05:09 Jared

Well, we had CPI next Friday. So that’s going to be front front and center. I’m going to be scanning for credit headlines. We still got the regional banks uh reporting earnings, any more hiccups there, any more fraud, rates and volatility. That’s on my calendar.

05:24 Josh

Thank you, buddy. Appreciate it.

05:25 Jared

You bet.
