What This Century-Old Signal Means for Markets Now
If a time-tested market signal is to be believed, the stock market might be on shaky ground. Dow Theory, one of the oldest technical analysis tools, has recently flipped bearish, and traders and investors are asking: Is this the start of a broader market downturn?
How to Find Stocks That Are Bucking the Market Trend
The market’s been on a wild ride. After two days of gains, major indices dropped over 1%, shaking investor confidence. Is this just a pullback or the start of something bigger? While the broader market struggles, some stocks are holding strong—or even climbing. Finding them is key to staying profitable in tough conditions. Here’s how to do it.

It was another tough week in the markets, with the S&P 500 dipping into correction territory, and another tough week for traders’ portfolios.
Let’s take a look at what is working, what can be gleaned from our losses and how we expect to trade going forward.
Markets Enter Correction as Inflation Cools but Trade Tensions Rise
The markets took a sharp downturn yesterday as rising trade tensions overshadowed cooling inflation data. With the S&P 500 officially entering correction territory, investors are trying to balance the Federal Reserve’s rate path, cooling inflation trends, and escalating global trade risks. The question now is: how much of this volatility is temporary, and what does it mean in the weeks ahead?
The Market Is Running on Fear, Not Fundamentals
The latest market selloff isn’t about earnings, economic data, or even interest rates—it’s about fear. Volatility is surging, and uncertainty is keeping us on edge. But as much as the S&P 500’s drop might feel like the start of something bigger, the reality is that the fundamentals aren’t falling apart. We’re seeing the market reacting to potential risks, not actual deterioration.
Your Weekly Income Report
The stock market experienced significant volatility last week, driven by economic concerns and trade war uncertainties, resulting in the worst weekly performance since September. We took some losses as stocks, particularly tech, got hit.
However, we also booked some winners, including a one-day trade that benefited from the relative strength in the energy sector and another trade that utilized an options strategy that capitalizes on market indecision.
Is the Market on the Edge? Selling Pressure Mounts as Recession Fears Grow
What’s driving this sell-off? The latest catalyst appears to be President Donald Trump’s aggressive tariff policies targeting China, Mexico, and Canada. Investors fear these measures could derail economic growth, triggering a broader slowdown. With volatility on the rise and safe-haven assets like gold and Treasurys seeing inflows, the market is clearly bracing for further downside risk. What can you do about it, and how can you protect yourself?
Markets on Edge: Will Trade War 2.0 Break Stocks?
The stock market is getting punched from all angles—rising tariffs, policy uncertainty, and fears of slowing growth. The S&P 500 tanked over 2% at one point yesterday as investors reacted to new trade war escalations and the Trump administration’s economic strategy shift. If this sounds familiar, it’s because we’ve seen this movie before. The last time tariffs ramped up (2018-2019), the market dropped 10% before Trump backed off. Could history repeat itself? More importantly—how can investors position for what’s next?

Now that we’re back from Investor’s Blueprint Live, let’s pick up where we left off by reviewing the results of the past two weeks.
Among our winning trades was a Perpetual Income style position that allowed Options Income Weekly members to book more than $1,600 in cash from a stock that essentially went nowhere over the past nine months.
