The market finally delivered the pullback we expected, with stocks retreating roughly 4.5% before finding support at the 50-day moving average. Was that enough to reset bullish sentiment, or is another correction still ahead? In this episode, Lance Roberts examines why the 50-DMA remains one of the most important technical support levels during an ongoing bull market and whether the recent decline was simply a healthy pause within a larger uptrend.

Markets finally delivered the correction we had been anticipating. After becoming extremely extended, the S&P 500 pulled back 4.5% from peak to trough, testing the 50-day moving average before buyers stepped back in. In today's pre-market update, we review why this pullback was healthy, how the 50-DMA provided critical support, and why the recent Iran peace agreement is helping fuel a return toward all-time highs. We also discuss the sector rotation out of technology and semiconductors into defensive areas during the correction, and what that tells us about market leadership going forward. With markets attempting to reclaim the 20-DMA and push back toward the 7,600 level, investors are asking whether the correction is already over and what could come next. We examine the seasonal backdrop, why July has historically been supportive for stocks, and why the next meaningful risk window may not arrive until late summer or early autumn. Topics covered: Why the 4.5% correction was normal and healthy The importance of the 50-DMA support test Reclaiming the 20-DMA and returning to bull mode Sector rotation during the pullback Impact of the Iran peace agreement on markets Why July tends to favor stock market gains Potential risks heading into August and September Hosted by RIA Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer --- Watch the Video version of this report on our YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/rat_wi7b9eM --- Get more info & commentary: https://realinvestmentadvice.com/insights/real-investment-daily/ --- Do you enjoy our content?

What should you really expect from a financial advisor? Is your advisor acting as a fiduciary, managing risk, helping with taxes, retirement income, estate planning, and behavioral coaching, or just selling products and chasing performance? Richard Rosso & Jonathan McCarty break down the real role of a financial advisor, what services matter most, how advisors are compensated, and the warning signs investors often miss. We also discuss fiduciary standards, portfolio management, communication expectations, financial planning, and why transparency matters more than promises..

Is the U.S. Dollar really collapsing, or is the world still trapped in a dollar-based system with no true alternative? Today's discussion breaks down the myths behind de-dollarization, why BRICS nations still face trust problems, and how the global monetary system depends on U.S. dollar liquidity, debt markets, and swap lines. We examine the relationship between gold, oil, fiat currencies, and central bank reserves, along with why the dollar continues to dominate global trade despite endless bearish headlines. We also discuss why fiat currencies are intentionally designed to lose value over time, how money is created through debt, and why America's balance sheet is fundamentally different from most nations. 0:00 - INTRO 2:09 - What's Really Going on with The US Dollar - Why are the Negative Dollar Narratives Generally Wrong? 5:28 - Fiat Currency vs Gold & the BRICs (No one trusts China) 7:15 - Fiat Currencies are designed to lose value over time - Money is a form of control 9:45 - The Hard Money System - going back to a Gold standard 13:18 - Debt Always Gets Paid 15:25 - Dollar Stats & The Relationship Between Oil, Gold, & Dollars 19:48 - Why Central Banks Have Dollar Reserves 21:25 - Are Central Bankers Idiots? 23:04 - Falling Into Doom Loops 24:17 - US Debt vs US Assets & Income - why are we different? 27:56 - Exporting Inflation to the Rest of the World 29:33 - The Dollar is the Original Stealth Weapon 29:53 - Why the Dollar Matters (The Landman Example) 32:19 - Monetary System is Debt-based: Money is loaned into existence - the Carry Trades 36:53 - De-Dollarization vs Re-Dollarization 38:04 - Extending US Dollar Swaps to the World 42:40- Dollar Swap Lines w Strings Attached Get Brent Johnson's latest report (to be released mid-June, 2026) here: https://research.santiagocapital.com/ ------- Do you enjoy our content?
