Episode notes
No Clear Flight To Quality In Bonds
- Bonds did not see a classic flight-to-quality despite the geopolitical shock because the move is inflationary rather than purely risk-off.
- Dale observed TLT oscillating near a breakout level, creating a coin-flip situation for bond positioning.
Have Defined Buy Levels For Equities
- Set clear lines in the sand for equities and treat 15% pullbacks as buying opportunities if key support holds.
- Dale gives S&P levels to watch (6500, 6100, 6100 as a possible buy zone) and says buy if the market holds those breakouts.
Watching The Lunar Eclipse During A Selloff
- Dale watches astronomical events and recalled viewing the total lunar eclipse at 3:30am, linking it to market selloffs.
- He said the market sold off into the lunar eclipse and that he personally watched it from his backyard.
