Market continues to be held up on light holiday volume, as expected.
Of course, the most heavily manipulated stocks - as I pointed out yesterday - are high fliers such as -
Broadcom $AVGO -
One of the reasons Broadcom is driven higher, is because it's a Top 10 $QQQ holding.
$QQQ - This one is key... as I pointed out earlier in the year.
Note the rally started all the way back in Oct 2022.
I predicted earlier in the year that the powers that be would run stocks up into the end of the year, in order to avoid higher capital gains tax, and here we are.
Broad Market Rally?
Markets are rigged one sector at a time, and one sector that most folks don't even look at - let alone trade - is consumer cyclicals.
The chart embedded in yesterday's tweet is a tell:
Rigged bear market rallies don't last very long. HELL NO pic.twitter.com/RmEkTza8mx

Another thing I noticed yesterday is that while the $SPX was up .46% on a breakout to new recent highs, the $NYSE was barely up.
$SPX - rigged
$NYSE - not rigged
I moved the 401k 100% out of #stocks at today's closing bell. I ain't playing chicken with this runaway freight train. Gains are all locked in for the year #ChaChing!

The headlines
As predicted the powers that be continue to try to help Joe Biden....
Inflation fears down, consumer optimism up: Economy may start to help Biden with voters? Hell No! You wish this was so... #CNBC @CNN Money Rigged markets https://t.co/YMKAOW9MrN

I believe this will all blow up in their faces in 2024, and I can't wait..!
The $VIX
I think the bulls can hammer the $VIX below their 11.50 target on today's Fed release, but I'm not taking any chances, as we trade into Dec. Options Expiration.
Take care,
AA
