The Real Investment Show Podcast ·

2025/10/09

Markets continue to push higher as optimism remains strong, fueled by massive corporate share buybacks and record retail inflows. Since April, liquidity has been the lifeblood of this rally — but beneath the surface, the setup is increasingly fragile. The MACD has been flat for weeks, volatility remains near historic lows, and options positioning shows a large negative delta. That combination can unwind quickly if the 20-DMA gives way. A simple 5% correction could feel twice as painful after months

2025/10/08

The Real Investment Show Podcast ·

2025/10/07

Markets hit new all-time highs Monday, closing up roughly 40 basis points, and futures point higher again this morning. But beneath the surface, extreme deviations above the 200-day moving average are forming—a setup that rarely lasts. In this short video, Lance Roberts explains why markets stretched this far above long-term averages eventually correct, how those drawdowns affect investors both financially and psychologically, and why low-quality, no-income stocks are suddenly leading the rally. 📈

The Real Investment Show Podcast ·

2025/10/06

Investors often believe that when markets “recover,” their portfolios do too — but that’s a dangerous illusion. In this episode, Lance Roberts breaks down why percentage losses and gains are not symmetrical, and how a 50% loss requires a 100% gain just to break even. We’ll discuss why bear market math destroys long-term returns, how emotional investors get trapped in the “illusion of recovery,” and why managing risk during drawdowns matters more than chasing every rally. 0:19 - The First Full

The Real Investment Show Podcast ·

2025/10/01

October kicks off the seasonally strong six months of the year (Oct–Mar), but investors shouldn’t assume smooth sailing. Historically, October averages about a 1% gain. Yet markets just notched five straight months of S&P 500 gains during the seasonally weak window, raising the odds of a short-term pullback. In this pre-market update, Lance Roberts breaks down: Why history suggests a 4–5% correction may be due. How earnings season, corporate buybacks, and fund managers playing “catch-up” could fuel

The Real Investment Show Podcast ·

2025/09/29

Lance Roberts examines one of the most reliable technical analysis tools investors use to measure market risk: the Relative Strength Index (RSI). The RSI helps identify when markets are overbought, oversold, or diverging from price action. While RSI is not a perfect “buy or sell” signal, it is a powerful guardrail for risk management. History shows that overbought conditions can persist much longer than expected, but when momentum fades, corrections can arrive suddenly. 👉 If you’re serious about

2025/09/29

After a three-day selloff, is the market still on track for 7,000? Last week’s decline tested the 20-DMA momentum line — a level that has held strong since April.

2025/09/25

Markets are gently pulling back after 107 straight days without a 2% swing—one of the longest quiet stretches in recent history. While we’re not calling for a crash, momentum and breadth are weakening as money flows decline, signaling that more sellers may be stepping in.
