12-2-25 Markets Base Up as Bitcoin Builds a Bottom | Before the Bell
Markets kicked off the first trading week of December with a weak open but rallied off the lows. Despite some early sloppiness, the major indices remain well-above their 100-day moving average, and the MACD Buy signal remains intact. Momentum is rebuilding, and a basing pattern appears to be forming across the board, including the NASDAQ. The bigger headline today is Bitcoin. After a sharp pullback and several weeks of ETF outflows, Bitcoin is now oversold and flashing renewed buy-signal conditions. ETF inflows have returned, options activity is picking up on the long side, and the price action suggests a potential base forming—though confirmation will take time. A rally back toward the 100-DMA would still offer meaningful upside without implying new highs. Meanwhile, the U.S. Dollar continues to base following its recent rally, which has helped fuel short-term strength in Gold. Risk-on sentiment is beginning to re-emerge across asset classes as investors rotate back into markets heading into year-end. This pre-market update breaks down the technical backdrop, Bitcoin's improving structure, and what the risk-on rotation means for traders as we move through December.

12-1-25 Bear Markets Are a Good Thing
Most investors fear bear markets—but history shows they play a critical role in building future returns. In this episode, Lance Roberts explains why market declines are not only normal, but necessary for long-term financial success. We break down how bear markets reset valuations, reduce speculation, improve forward returns, and provide disciplined investors with better long-term outcomes. Instead of focusing on predictions, we focus on the importance of managing risk, controlling emotions, and understanding how full market cycles work. 0:00 - INTRO 0:19 - Manage Portfolios for Markets, not Narratives 3:33 - Should You Wait for Correction to Invest? 9:12 - 2026 Economic Summit 10:15 - Markets' Statistics for December 15:14 - Record Levels of Leverage & ETF's 16:54 - Volatility is Different from Bear Market 18:49 - Corrections & Bear Markets are a Good Thing 20:43 - Forest Firers & Recessions are a Good Thing 22:39 - The Fed's 3rd Mandate 25:45 - The Importance of Understanding Full Market Cycles 26:59 - Valuations Always Revert to the Mean 29:50 - Delaying Corrections, Recession Results in Worse Pain Later 32:46 - A 5% Correction is the Price of Admission 34:03 - Get Rid of Narratives 35:10 - The Difference Between Suffering and Surviving 37:16 - Resist Chasing markets 38:10 - Buying & Selling Drives Prices 39:36 - Remain Emotionally Balanced 41:40 - Importance of Monitoring Macro, Technical Signals 42:11 - Importance of an Investment Policy Statement 44:12 - Coming Attractions 👉 Subscribe for weekly insights on investing, behavioral finance, and practical money management. 📍 More at RealInvestmentAdvice.com Hosted by RIA Advisors Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Watch Today's Full Video on our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bdlhQgMthW4&list=PLVT8LcWPeAugpcGzM8hHyEP11lE87RYPe&index=1 ------- The latest installment of our new feature, Before the Bell, "The Problem With Waiting for Corrections," is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZ1WScUat1g&list=PLVT8LcWPeAujhW-HlRJGaPa9tDN_GthEg&index=1 ------- REGISTER for our 2026 Economic Summit, "The Future of Digital Assets, Artificial Intelligence, and Investing:" https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2026-ria-economic-summit-tickets-1765951641899?aff=oddtdtcreator ------- Articles Mentioned in Today's Show: "A Bear Market Is A Good Thing" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/bear-markets-are-a-good-thing/ "The Problem With Waiting for Corrections" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/year-end-rally-begins/ "Full Market Cycles: Half Bull and Half Bear" https://realinvestmentadvice.com/resources/blog/full-market-cycles-half-bull-and-half-bear/ -------- Get more info & commentary: https://realinvestm entadvice.com/newsletter/ -------- SUBSCRIBE to The Real Investment Show here: http://www.youtube.com/c/TheRealInvestmentShow -------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #StockMarketUpdate #MarketCorrection #InvestingStrategy #MarketPullback #FinancialAdvice #BearMarkets #MarketCycles #InvestingEducation #RiskManagement #FinancialPlanning

12-1-25 The Problem With Waiting for Corrections | Before the Bell
Should you wait for a 5% correction before putting money to work? In today's pre-market update, Lance Roberts explains why waiting for the "perfect pullback" is one of the most costly mistakes investors make. A 5% correction is normal volatility—it happens once or twice a year. Even 10% corrections occur regularly. This year alone, markets already saw a near-20% pullback in April and a 5% dip in early November. If you're always waiting for the next pullback, your investment window becomes too narrow—and you risk missing the bulk of the market's gains. Lance walks through real-time chart examples to show why staying invested, keeping some cash ready, and adding on dips is a far better strategy than going all defensive. Markets trend higher over time due to inflation and economic growth, and current indicators—credit spreads, volatility, and market internals—show no signs of a major 30–50% draw down on the horizon. As Peter Lynch famously said: "More money is lost preparing for bear markets than in the bear markets themselves." If you're waiting for the next 5% correction, you're likely missing more upside than you're protecting on the downside.
