Briefer on Yesterdays market

The big news yesterday morning broke after a 30-minute delay from the BLSā€¦ That's how you know itā€™s bad. The news came in the form of employment data revision, downward revisionsā€¦ 818K of them. Payroll revisions show the US economy created 818,000 fewer jobs than reported for the year ending in March 2024. This is the largest revision by the BLS since 2009. This news sounds very bad, which it is, but it still shows that the U.S. economy added about 2.1 million jobs last year, which is growth.

Revisions are normal, which isnā€™t great, but thatā€™s how government agencies function. It took until 2018 to finalize 2008 GDP numbersā€¦ Yikes.

Currently, SPY is nearing another all-time high, while its lighter-weight counterpart, the S&P 500 Ex Mag 7 is making new highs! This shows a healthy broadening in the market, which could mean a possible rotation, nonetheless, itā€™s a good sign.

New ETF Trading Tool: alphaAI

Check out this ETF Trading product that has my attention, Itā€™s called alphaAi, think of this as your risk-adjusted robo advisor. Its job is to capture high upside using machine learning algorithmic trading strategies while protecting the downside. The best part is alphaAI automatically rebalances to reduce risk, and auto-invests uninvested cash into the highest-yielding money markets.

During the 2022 drawdown, alphaAIā€™s trading strategy was able to react and rebalance enough to out preform competing robo advisors, and even SPY

2023 was a great year in the market, but with alphaAI it was an exceptional year.

Currently, alphaAI is in beta, but if you want early access click the link below!
