Trading Strategy Shift

  • πŸ’‘ Bill Baruch discusses a tactical shift in his trading strategy, selling the S&P equal weight (RSP).
  • 🎯 He is now buying the Nasdaq 100 (QQQ), viewing it as a strong buying opportunity.

Rationale for the Trade

  • πŸ“‰ The move comes after a period where tech names have reached what Baruch considers terrific value levels.
  • πŸ—“οΈ Previously, in mid-January, his tactical ETF basket held QQQ, but they sold it and bought RSP following a strong Q4 run.
  • πŸ”„ This current move is described as unwinding that previous position and going back into the Qs.

Market Outlook

  • πŸ“Š Baruch notes that the S&P and Nasdaq are trading near their September lows.
  • ⏳ He believes the market is in the later innings of the selloff.
  • πŸ“ˆ Yesterday's rally lacked significant volume, particularly in leading names, which contributed to the decision.
  • πŸš€ He anticipates a potential rally of 5% to 7% for the Nasdaq, aiming to reach the 200-day moving average.
  • πŸ“° The exit from this selloff will likely be driven by news and data.
