Do the Tradeable Volatility Markets think there are Road bumps coming?
Turn on the financial news and you’ll hear the word “volatility” almost every day. But are markets really more volatile... or does it just feel that way?
In this video, I break down what market volatility actually looks like as we head into 2026, a mid-term election year that has historically brought wider swings and heightened uncertainty. I walk through the da...

Patience may matter more than usual for investors in 2026.
Our investment team remains constructive on equities this year, but we expect increased market volatility, especially in the first half of the year. I review historical stock market drawdowns, presidential election cycle data, Federal Reserve transitions, inflation seasonality, and earnings growth expectations to explain why 2026 may be a more uneven investing year.

In Part 3 of Oak Harvest’s 2026 Market Outlook, I explain why our investment team believes 2026 could be a year of elevated market volatility and what history may suggest for long-term investors.
We look at past market behavior during midterm election years, second years of presidential terms, and periods when a new Federal Reserve Chair takes office. While history does not repeat exactly, understanding these patterns can help in...

Markets have gone up since Covid, but the ride has been anything but smooth.

If you have ever wondered why markets seem to fall more often than headlines suggest, this will give you important perspective.
You will also get a sneak peek into how our...

Market volatility isn’t a Black Friday sale, and in this video, I walk through why investors may experience drawdowns even during strong long-term markets like the S&P 500. I share historical context around common pullbacks, how different market “factors” such as growth, value, and momentum rotate over time, and why style shifts can make it difficult to “change horses mid-race.”
I also review post-2020 index performance, recent...

Over the past decade, the “Magnificent 7” stocks grew rapidly by operating relatively asset-light businesses. But today, these same companies are allocating unprecedented amounts of capital to chips, servers, data centers, electricity, real estate, and AI infrastructure. My goal in this video is to give you clear context around these spending trends, how they compare to past investment cycles, and why investors are raising new ques...

What if I told you the shape of today’s economy might explain why some Americans feel prosperous while others feel like they are falling behind? In this episode of Stock Talk, I break down why economists are calling this a K shaped recovery and what that really means for consumers, workers, and long term investors.
Over the years, commentators have tried simplifying economic cycles with shapes like V or W. But what we are experie...

Today I’m blending a little classic rock with market insight to cut through the noise of bearish headlines and bubble talk. You’ll hear why I don’t agree with comparisons to the late ’90s, what the data actually says about this V-bottom rally, and why history shows strength, not weakness, when markets stay over key moving averages. By the end, you’ll walk away with a clearer, fact-based perspective on where we are in this bull mark...

Paul Tudor Jones recently said we’re in the “9th inning” of the AI tech stock bubble, the late stages of a market mania similar to 1999’s Dot-com peak. I don’t see it that way. In this week’s video, I break down why the data tells a different story, and why I believe we’re still early in the game, maybe the 3rd or 4th inning, not the 9th.
We’ll compare today’s AI-driven market cycle to the Dot-com era, review historical S&P 500...

Are we seeing the top of the AI boom or just another milestone in a long-term growth story? In this week’s Market Update, I examines whether September 2025 will be remembered as the “top” of the AI trade, or if comparisons to the late-1990s Dot-com bubble miss the mark. I'll also give you perspective on market leadership, sector rotation, and what investors might expect as we enter the seasonally strong fourth quarter and the first...

Maybe five or ten years from now, we’ll look back and wonder if September 2025 was the top of the AI boom. Personally, I doubt it. For now, those who tuned out the “AI bubble” and “overvalued S&P 500” chatter are likely smiling after a strong third quarter.
Today I'm going to review the data and context behind what may go down as one of the strongest third quarters in recent history, and discuss why, historically, the fourth ...

In this week’s market update, I walk through the lessons from the sharp April selloff, why our team viewed it as a classic “V-bottom” recovery, and how history may guide what comes next. I compare today’s AI-driven market cycle with the Dotcom buildout of the late 1990s, highlighting which sectors have led year-to-date and what that might mean for investors as we head into year-end repositioning season. From technology and semicond...

Are we in the middle of a historic V-bottom recovery that mirrors the Dotcom boom, but this time fueled by AI? In this week’s update, I break down why I believe the Federal Reserve’s recent rate cut, the strength of the S&P 500 since April, and the powerful role of semiconductors all point to a bull market that still has room to run. I compare today’s market action to the late 1990s tech buildout, explain what history tells us ...

Will the stock market keep soaring toward 7,300–7,400, even with higher rates, global tensions, and Fed uncertainty? I'm going to break down what Jerome Powell’s dovish comments really mean, why the S&P 500 is hitting record highs, and what decades of market history reveal about Fed pauses and rate cuts. Drawing on almost 35 years of managing money, I show how today’s cycle mirrors the dot-com era, why liquidity drives markets ...
