2022 has been a bumpy year for stocks and bonds. I am expecting volatility to remain elevated in the short run. However, it looks like markets are beginning to stabilize.

Stocks just had a very rough first half of the year. However history shows that after a sharp downturn, a rebound is a high probability.

Energy has been the best performing sector of 2022. However energy stocks recently fell into bear market territory, defined as more than a 20% decline from the 52-week high. Now investors want to know, is this a good time to buy energy stocks?

There’s no question things are rough right now. Inflation is killing consumers and its weighing pretty heavily on the stock market. However I see relief happening sooner than later for three reasons.

Some of the best investment opportunities happen when stocks go through periods of weakness. Most recently we saw that with COVID. In the short run stocks fell sharply in early 2020 because of COVID, but in the long run that turned out to be a good time to buy. This is a good way to look at 2022 because it has been a tough year for stocks.

2022 has been a tough year for global stocks. How tough? The S&P 500 is off to its worst start since 1939 – that is 83 years ago. This weakness has been driven by many leading stocks being absolutely crushed in 2022. For example…

Shares of Netflix fell 40% yesterday after reporting weak Q1 earnings. Shares are down 68% from the 52-week high and some investors are asking – should I buy this dip?

The most important time of the quarter has arrived – earnings season. Earnings season is the time when publicly traded companies report operating results for the previous quarter and share a forecast for the next quarter.

Elon Musk just became the largest shareholder of Twitter, setting the stage for an epic fight between anti-censorship Musk and pro-censorship Twitter CEO and Board.

The first quarter of 2022 is over and despite some pretty intense volatility the U.S. stock market held up relatively well.
