Red Wave Bottom! The Issachar Fund is 25% invested in 22 growth stocks! The market may have bottomed on 10/13/22 as investors anticipate a “red wave” in the House and Senate races come November 8th. I sold all shorts and the dollar and went long fundamentally strong growth stocks breaking out of sound base chart patterns. The indexes rallied last week on bad earnings releases from the mega-techs, which is a good sign. The market is looking ahead and maybe sees republicans winning the majority and stopping a lot of the irresponsible spending that has caused much of our inflation. I have seen three above-average volume index price gains since 10/13/22, indicating institutional demand is coming back into the market. Our biggest weighting is energy, with smaller positions in retail, medical, software, and telecom. I like what I see and plan to buy more stocks as we are rewarded for taking risks. I am trying to capture about 80% of the uptrends and avoid life-changing losses of bear markets and recessions. If I am wrong, I will not hesitate to do what it takes to right the ship. (There is no guarantee that any investment will achieve its objectives, generate positive returns, or avoid losses.)
The Fed’s balance sheet declined $20 billion last week and is down $242 billion since 4/19/22, so the Fed is doing what it said. They were reducing their balance sheet and expected to raise rates by 75bps on Wednesday, hoping to bring inflation down from above 8% to 2%. The market may be anticipating the Fed will raise rates by 50bps instead of 75bps at its December meeting, which could be a sign of getting a handle on inflation. If the Fed raised its inflation target from 2% to 4%, the market would welcome that change. Whatever the market sees, it appears that it could be rewarding for growth stock investors.
Bottom Line: We are 25% invested, bullish, and plan to get more invested if we are rewarded for taking risk. I like how the indexes shrugged off bad earnings from big tech and managed to finish strong on the week. Prices have been rising on above-average volume, which is a huge tell of big money coming back into the market after a brutal bear market. I believe if everyone would use common sense and vote for Godly leaders, we could get this country back on the right track. By the Grace of God, I see a huge “red wave” on November 8th! Grace & Peace to Everyone!
