  1. AAnewfirst flagged by tastylivesource ↗

    The market is at lifetime highs with sustained momentum, particularly in equities like ES and SPY, though the rally appears to lack clear catalysts, suggesting structural momentum. China's FXI is seen as benefiting from relative underperformance compared to surging US stocks. Gold and silver ETFs, including GLD, have reversed from trend lines, with miners like XME and GDX showing short-term bearish momentum, particularly XME versus GTX. Certain stocks like Workday, Alcoa, and Double AI are showing topping patterns after rallies, while United Health Group and CVNA have broken lifetime trend lines, suggesting potential for further downside. Bitcoin and related assets are viewed as vulnerable below $60,000, with a potential for significant downside if breached. The market as a whole is described as expensive, with even bullish chart patterns failing, indicating a high-priced environment where gains are quickly undone. The creator emphasizes the importance of adjusting charts for dividends to avoid misleading price movements.
