Dow 30 Surges More Than 700 Points; All Major Indices Green; Russell 2000 Particularly Interesting -- July 16, 2024

 Locator: 48157INV.

At the close / near the close:

Only two news items in last 24 hours:

  • Trump names JD Vance as his VP nominee; and,
  • JPow strongly signals a "Fed cut" sooner than later.

After 300 points today, the rest was due to short covering.

None of it was money coming from the sidelines. 

So, from where was the money coming? Rotation. Movers and shakers were taking their profits in the "magnificent seven" and moving to Dow components.

We'll see that when "my favorite chart" is updated in the next few days or so. 

The Buffett indicator: if the indicator sounded an alarm five days ago, imagine how long and how loud the alarm is today! OMG! Link here. And if the Fed cuts rates, the indicator will only get worse. Buffett indicator here.
