BETTER LATE THAN NEVER

A Thursday meeting between Senate Democrats and senior aides to Joe Biden will be a marquee moment in the president’s attempt to quell intraparty concerns over his candidacy.

But, no, the president won’t be there.

Instead, it will be Biden campaign chair Jen O'Malley Dillon, plus senior advisers Mike Donilon and Steve Ricchetti, speaking inside a closed-door meeting at Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee headquarters. The group was invited by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer to provide an opportunity to address concerns within the caucus, we’re told.

Numerous Democratic senators have said they need to see more from the president to prove that he’s up for the bitter campaign that’s sure to play out over the next four months. And some wanted this sort of opportunity to touch base with Biden world well before now.

“Should have had it 10 days ago,” Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Colo.) told reporters Wednesday after saying publicly Tuesday he thinks Biden is on track to lose this November.

Still, Bennet said he’s “looking forward to having the conversation.” He did not directly answer a question about whether he’s disappointed the president himself is not attending, instead saying he’s “not been able to focus on that” and looks forward to what “these folks have to say.”

Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.), who tried to organize a private conversation among Senate Democrats after the president’s disastrous debate performance, dodged questions on the Wednesday meeting, referring reporters back to his previous statement calling for “conversations about the strongest path forward.”

Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio), who has also acknowledged unease about Biden’s viability, would not confirm or deny whether he’s even going to the meeting. Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-Wis.) told reporters she’s eager to relay concerns she’s heard from her constituents.

But Biden’s allies rebuked the idea that the meeting represents any sort of make-or-break moment for the president. While eight House Democrats have called on the president to step aside, no Senate Democrats have.

That firewall has held through a tumultuous few days of questioning from a supersized number of reporters on the Hill this week. Still, a number of Democrats continue to insist that the decision is up to Biden — even as their pro-Biden colleagues insist the decision has already been made.

“He gave a letter. He delivered it to the entire House and Senate Democratic caucuses saying he has a great record,” Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.) told reporters on Wednesday. “He sees clearly what a risk Donald Trump is to our country. He looks forward to being our nominee.”

Coons added: “I do think that it's important that we have a robust conversation with the campaign about the path forward. ... I think tomorrow will be another constructive conversation.”

COULD ADMIN GAVEL GO OUT OF STEIL?

House Administration Committee Chair Bryan Steil (R-Wis.) could have a fight on his hands if Republicans keep their majority: Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.) isn’t ruling out a fight for the panel’s gavel next year.

Loudermilk made a play for the chairmanship two years ago after then-ranking member Rodney Davis (R-Ill.) lost his primary. But Speaker Kevin McCarthy tapped Steil, who was viewed as more of an ally of the California Republican.

Instead, Loudermilk has found a prominent platform as chair of the committee’s oversight subpanel, where he’s kept busy with a look back at the Jan. 6 select committee’s work. That investigation has garnered the Georgia Republican praise from Speaker Mike Johnson and other Republicans.

“It would be something I would consider,” Loudermilk said when we asked if he was interested in the top spot, though he cautioned that January is still a long way off by political standards.

To be clear: There are no signs that Steil wants to leave the top spot, and one member of the panel, granted anonymity to avoid stepping into a potential intraparty race, praised him for doing “an exceptional job leading” the committee.

What it will actually come down to: Whether Steil stays as the panel’s top Republican will ultimately come down to whomever leads House Republicans come January. The Administration Committee is one of only a few House panels whose makeup is determined solely by leadership, not by the GOP steering committee.

AOC DISCRIMINATION LAWSUIT MOVES FORWARD

A federal judge gave the green light to a wrongful termination case against former acting Architect of the Capitol Chere Rexroat, giving hope for four plaintiffs who made claims of gender, age and veteran status discrimination after being fired from the troubled agency.

"Perhaps Rexroat’s arguments will prove exculpatory. Perhaps Plaintiffs will be unable to prove up their allegations. But right now, Plaintiffs’ allegations support ‘the reasonable inference that [Rexroat] is liable for the misconduct alleged,’” wrote U.S. District Judge Trevor McFadden.

The former senior executives at the agency were ousted after the firing of former Architect of the Capitol J. Brett Blanton. While McFadden said the plaintiffs “plausibly pled claims for sex, veteran, and age discrimination,” he dismissed one plaintiff’s racial discrimination claim.

The Win Streak Continues

A seven-day win streak... Three catalysts for the bull market to continue... But short-term steam doesn't last forever... Make sure you have an investing plan... Let your high-quality winners run and sell 'Wile E. Coyote'...


A seven-day win streak...

The benchmark S&P 500 Index and tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index closed higher today for the seventh consecutive trading session.

The S&P 500 was up 1% today. The Nasdaq was 1.2% higher. And several semiconductor stocks like Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM) and Nvidia (NVDA) were among the day's biggest individual gainers, up around 3% each.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average and small-cap Russell 2000 Index were also higher, by about 1% each, which hasn't always been the case during the S&P 500 and Nasdaq's current streaks. Meantime, bond yields were little changed today.

As we wrote about on Monday, momentum favors the bulls right now. We're in "a very strong bull market," Ten Stock Trader editor Greg Diamond said in his free Diamond's Edge video.

If you're a technical trader like Greg, it's not necessary to attach a narrative to today's price action, but I (Corey McLaughlin) will share a big-picture view. After all, I'm the "Switzerland" editor of the Digest, as our colleague Dave Lashmet once put it... impartial to all our editors' investing strategies.

There are three catalysts for this bullish stretch...

The first catalyst is the prospect of an easier monetary policy environment ahead.

As we wrote yesterday, the Federal Reserve's view on inflation, unemployment, and the economy appears to favor the central bank lowering its suggested benchmark lending rate later this year. It's "Melt Up" fuel.

Fed Chair Jerome Powell's second day of testimony on Capitol Hill did nothing to dampen this idea. And tomorrow brings a fresh set of inflation data that could stoke the fire.

Meanwhile, the idea of President Joe Biden's name not appearing on the presidential election ballot in November doesn't appear to be hurting market performance. This current streak for the S&P 500 and Nasdaq began the day after the June 27 presidential "debate."

As we wrote in the days after the debate, the idea of an extension of former President Donald Trump's tax cuts, circa 2017, is back on investors' minds... and may be another catalyst for higher stock prices. Less taxes can help businesses' profit margins and boost economic activity.

History is also on the market's side in early July.

As our friend Marc Chaikin, founder of our corporate affiliate Chaikin Analytics, told Dan Ferris and me recently on the Stansberry Investor Hour, the first two weeks of July is the best two-week period for stock market performance going back to 1928, on average.

Money tends to flow into the market at the start of the year's second half for one reason or another, as Wall Street and institutional money managers deploy capital to start the third quarter or the beginning of the fiscal 2025 year.

That said, short-term steam doesn't last forever...

We'd be surprised if the major U.S. stock indexes went up every day into infinity... through November... or the rest of the month without any down days.

That's not how this game works... even in an environment with strong bullish momentum. I can't tell you the precise day the streak will snap, but I'd bet on it happening – and possibly soon.

As DailyWealth Trader editor Chris Igou wrote to his subscribers yesterday, while the market has been up lately, he's seeing signs of potential weakness ahead, based on a technical analysis of U.S. stocks.

Chris is seeing a similar setup from this time last summer, right before stocks started selling off (before ultimately snapping back higher in the final months of the year). As he wrote...

The S&P 500 Index was up 16% in the first half of 2023...

The market was climbing out of a bear market. And things were looking good. Then, starting at the end of July, stocks fell 10% in three months.

It was the first correction of the year. And all 11 major U.S. sectors were in the red during that time.

This year is playing out in similar fashion so far. The S&P 500 rose 15% in the first half of 2024. The bull run is on track. Yet, something that showed up at the end of the 2023 summer rally is happening again today...

Chris is talking about a notable "divergence" between the headline performance of the S&P 500 (which is disproportionally influenced by its biggest mega-cap stocks) and how most of the individual stocks in the index are performing.

In DailyWealth Trader, Chris often shares interesting market indicators he uses to identify potential turning points in the markets. Yesterday, he shared one that illustrates the underlying health, or "breadth" (the number of stocks going up versus down) of the S&P 500.

Using this indicator, Chris found that more individual stocks in the S&P 500 have actually been going down versus up lately, while the index itself keeps rising to new all-time highs.

This is typically a warning sign in an index or sector for potential weakness ahead. It has preceded drawdowns in the S&P 500 over the past several years.

This indicator is called the McClellans Advances-Declines U.S. Summation Index. As Chris wrote...

This is a rolling tally that shows if more stocks in the S&P 500 are advancing or declining each day. It uses a set moving average of the advancing stocks minus the moving average of the declining stocks. Then it adds that number to the previous day's close.

Put simply, if more stocks rise than fall, the number at the end of the day is positive, and the index goes up. If more stocks are falling, the number is negative, and it goes down.

Again, the summation index usually falls in line with the S&P 500. When the U.S. benchmark index is breaking out, this index tends to follow.

This isn't the case today, though. As Chris continued...

The summation index is down as the S&P 500 hits new highs. We've only seen this a couple of other times over the past few years...

The most recent case was in the summer of 2023. The chart above shows the summation index dropping quickly while stocks climbed higher into June.

As you can see in the chart, the benchmark index didn't keep climbing for too much longer after the June 2023 peak... This was when the S&P 500 was moving higher while more individual stocks started to decline more consistently each day. As Chris wrote...

That's because there was no support to drive it higher. The pressure of fewer stocks going up eventually tipped the scale.

Another recent case was in the summer of 2021... The S&P was doing incredibly well that year, too. It rose 14% in the first six months.

By summer, more stocks were falling than rising. While it wasn't a major drop in breadth, you could clearly see the divergence. Now, the S&P 500 didn't fall right away. It rose another 5.6% through early September before falling 5% in a month.

That drop wasn't big enough to mark a true correction. But it was a month straight of falling prices.

If history is a good indication – and we think it is – don't be surprised to see a pullback in stocks in the months ahead.

The Stansberry's Investment Advisory team's Complacency Indicator, which has an excellent track record of predicting 10% drawdowns within the following 12 months, was also triggered earlier this year.

Again, I can't tell you precisely when a pullback will happen or what the trigger might be, but the mega-cap stocks carrying the S&P 500 aren't likely to keep "winning" every single day from now until forever. And the odds of a pullback grow every day more individual stocks decline rather than gain.

That said... Chris' system remains in "buy mode" for U.S. stocks overall. And all the major U.S. indexes remain in longer-term uptrends, well above their 200-day moving averages. All the indexes have been trading above these moving averages since late 2023, even the lagging Russell 2000.

Summing up...

We're not saying it's time to go "all in" or "all out" of stocks right now... far from it. Owning shares of high-quality businesses is a critical part of growing and protecting your wealth in this period of still-high inflation (no matter what the powers that be say).

But don't panic if you see some negative performance from the indexes soon. We'll also keep an eye out to see if longer-term bullish trends are getting close to a danger zone for the market overall. But we're not seeing that right now... It's the opposite, with several straight days of new all-time highs.

Make sure you have an investing plan...

As long as you own shares of the "right" businesses, they'll keep rewarding you.

So what are the right businesses? They're ones that generate a ton of free cash flow, are growing their margins, and consistently reward shareholders with dividends and buybacks no matter the economic environment.

These businesses can keep rewarding you longer than you might think...

As Stansberry's Investment Advisory lead editor Whitney Tilson, a former Wall Street hedge-fund manager, told me and Dan on this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, one of the biggest regrets of his career is not holding on to more shares of his high-quality "winners" like Netflix (NFLX) in its relatively early days.

As Whitney said, it's wise to "be greedy" by holding on to your "long-term compounders," like Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway (BRK-B)...

Over the years, I owned Apple, Amazon, Netflix, Home Depot, McDonald's, a litany of stocks. That's where I made all my money. Everything else was sort of a distraction... The mistake I made in every single one of them is I sold them too early.

From a value investor's perspective, Whitney said you shouldn't hold on to a low-quality business or buy shares just because the stock "looks cheap."

But some great businesses may become cheap – and good buys – in a drawdown. That's what happened with Meta Platforms (META) back at the end of 2022.

Whitney was pounding the table to buy shares of the stock at its lows, down 76% from September 2021 to October 2022, because he thought it was still a high-quality business whose short-term concerns (like Apple changing up its privacy controls for iPhone apps and "metaverse" intentions) were overblown...

Be patient and look for once-great businesses that are facing some short-term headwinds. The key is you need to figure out, "Are these short-term headwinds or is this business permanently impaired?"

But Whitney also said it's appropriate and wise to sell stocks that aren't generating profits like they used to and where your original investment thesis has changed materially.

He used Valeant Pharmaceuticals (now Bausch Health) as an example. Several years ago, it had taken on too much debt and saw its growth strategy of acquiring competitors and raising the prices of their drugs run its course as political pressure against pharmaceutical companies intensified ahead of the 2016 presidential election. As a result, its acquisition targets dried up. As Whitney said...

You had to see that [its] business model and growth was driven by a couple of key pillars [and] that those pillars had just been blown out. What you were now left with is Wile E. Coyote had gone off the cliff, and the legs were spinning wildly and [it] was about to plunge, and worse yet there was a lot of debt. So the stock went down by 97% peak to trough.

As an investor you need to have the judgment to be able to look at Valeant down 75% and Facebook/Meta down 75% and be able to figure out one of those is an insanely great company, that they're fixing short-term things, and it's going to recover... and the market is just panicking on short-term factors versus Valeant, which after it went down by 75% went down by another 85%. Now, that's a value trap, and you've got to be able to distinguish between those two.

Corey McLaughlin comment: Thanks for the note, Dennis.

I wasn't intending to besmirch Dave Portnoy, but to point out that if or when he and his daily trading exploits and comments like, "Stocks only go up!" start appearing in the mainstream financial news and become immensely popular again, it will be a good signal that the market is in "Melt Up" territory.

In other words, the level of his popularity is an anecdotal indicator.

All the best,
