The summer months typically lack big headlines in the stock market. But that hasn’t been the case this year…
On today’s new episode of the SteadyTrade Podcast, Tim Bohen and I dissect some of the hottest stories of the last week and what they mean for your portfolio.
We have talked a lot about Bitcoin (BTC-USD) lately, and I wrote to you Monday about the highlights from last weekend’s Bitcoin 2024 conference in Nashville. Tim and I continue that conversation today and share more insight into what former President Donald Trump’s participation means for cryptos. Plus, how it will all affect the election.
Elsewhere in the market, we’re in the midst of second-quarter earnings season. Contrary to what you may be hearing and reading, the numbers have been solid.
Blended earnings growth for the year-over-year period is 9.8%, and the full-year figure is expected to come in at 11%. We dive into the numbers on the podcast and discuss how stocks are reacting. What we’re seeing could be a good sign for the long-term health of the market.
Then, have you experienced the “Zyn Craze” that has been taking place – especially within the younger generations? Tim and I aren’t young, per say, but we use the nicotine pouches regularly. So today, we discuss the stock that has been the biggest winner as this trend has boomed.
Finally, we begin sharing the names of six stocks at the top of our watch lists. All are small caps that will benefit from our thesis that smaller stocks will outperform their larger counterparts in the coming months…
Tim’s first pick just so happens to be in one of my favorite niche sectors – cooling services for large data centers. Meanwhile, my stock is in a 175-year-old company that is making big profits right now. Yet I bet you’ve never heard of it.
