Market Tries To Read Between The Lines

We have heard many discussions on whether small caps, like the Russell 2000 index really matter for the market. Do we care about the small caps? Is there a correction coming in large caps?

Starting with Fed Chairman Powell:

  1. Most Recent Labor Data Sends Signal of Cooling
  2. Labor Market Appears to Be Fully Back In Balance
  3. No Longer A Heated Economy
  4. ‘We Are Well Aware’ We Face Two-Sided Risks

 

 

Last night I wrote that “We have heard many discussions on whether small caps (Granddad Russell 2000 IWM) really matter for the market.”

The chart above is clear.

Do we care about the small caps?

Is there a correction coming in large caps?

Did Powell say anything really?

As we all try to read between the lines, please have a look at where you might consider parking money right now.
