3-19-26 Will The Fed Backstop Exuberance Again?

The Real Investment Show Podcast ·

2026/03/19

The private credit market has exploded from under $500 billion a decade ago to $1.2 trillion domestically and $1.7 trillion globally — and stress is building fast. Lance Roberts & Michael Lebowitz break down exactly what private credit is, who the major players are, and why rising credit stress could force the Federal Reserve's hand — even if inflation and unemployment don't justify it.

The Real Investment Show Podcast ·

2026/03/19

Hot inflation data sent markets lower Wednesday, killing expectations for Federal Reserve rate cuts in 2024 and leaving the Fed firmly on hold. Now markets are testing the critical 200-day moving average (200-DMA) — a level that has provided support for 214 consecutive days. Before you make any moves, here is what you need to know: Markets have worked off a significant portion of their overbought condition, but are not yet in oversold territory. A break of the 200-DMA alone is NOT a sell signal

The Real Investment Show Podcast ·

2026/03/18

Markets are pointing toward 6,800 this morning as momentum and relative strength improve. The reflexive rally we called last week is taking shape — and that creates a rebalancing opportunity, not a reason to chase. Don't wait for 6,900. Pick the neighborhood, not the house. Use the resistance zone around 6,800–6,900 as your selling area. Peak-to-trough has been roughly 5%; if your portfolio dropped more than that, you're carrying too much risk.

The Real Investment Show Podcast ·

2026/03/16

Markets are testing the 200-day moving average during a historically weak period in March. After failing at resistance, stocks are now technically oversold, which often leads to short-term reflex rallies. Rising geopolitical tensions with Iran pushed oil sharply higher, but futures markets suggest the spike may be temporary. If markets bounce, trapped investors near recent highs could sell into strength, keeping a lid on rallies. If a reflex rally develops, it may be an opportunity to rebalance

3-12-26 The "Value Rotation" Illusion

The Real Investment Show Podcast ·

2026/03/12

The market narrative says investors are rotating out of expensive growth stocks and into cheaper value stocks. But is that actually happening? Jon Penn and Michael Lebowitz explain how today's passive investing landscape can distort traditional definitions of value and growth. ETF flows and index-driven allocations often send capital into the largest and most popular companies, regardless of valuation. Using our three-tier valuation framework—past earnings, forward earnings, and growth-adjusted

Most retirement savers don't realize that every dollar sitting in a traditional IRA will eventually be taxed — and you may have little say over when, how much, or at what rate. Danny Ratliff & Sarah Buenger break down the three critical dimensions of IRA tax planning: a proactive multi-year conversion strategy, the risks of doing nothing, and legacy planning considerations that could determine how much your heirs actually keep.

2026/03/04

The 100-day moving average has been the market's most critical support level since April 2025 — and this week, it's being tested again. After Monday's selloff on Middle East military escalation news, markets broke below the 100-DMA before quickly recovering above the 50- and 20-DMA. Tuesday opened ~2% below that key level, but buyers stepped in and pushed markets right back up to close AT the 100-DMA.

This week, equity markets face a triple threat: an Iranian strike rattling geopolitical risk assets, an Anthropic AI capability announcement that hammered IBM, CrowdStrike, financials, and SaaS stocks, and a technical picture showing the S&P 500 slipping below both its 20- and 50-day moving averages.
