Saturday Trades Monday Update 12/18/2023

Markets higher again – No Shock

Markets continue the upward run with no sellers in sight. You may choose not to believe in the rally and you would be wrong. Whether or not you believe the facts are simple, markets are at new highs.

There may be a big sell off coming but not today. Remember, never fight the tape or the action it produces. You can join the party or observe, picking a top is a fools game.
