To The Moon

Hey everyone, Shernice here! My new job’s got me running ragged, so articles have taken a backseat. But I’m back, spilling what I’ve picked up about spotting market tops and bottoms. I’m no guru—I’ve flubbed plenty, and there’s gotta be sharper ways to play this. Still, let’s dig into this insane U.S. stock rebound! Is the bear market toast? Do we jump in or hang back? Stick around to the end for my take!

What Fueled the Rally? Cracking the April 7th Spike

Before we talk buying, let’s unpack why stocks soared. A few weeks back, the market was a dumpster fire—pure chaos! Trump’s tariff threats had everyone shook. I pocketed some profits, but let’s keep it 100—I took some Ls too. I hedged by shorting weaker stocks with put options, and by April 7th, I closed those for a small W. I also snagged a few strong stocks that rode this rebound wave like champs.

What sparked the April 7th surge? I caught technical signals screaming “support zone!” It was a slam-dunk moment to ditch shorts, even if I wasn’t ready to buy.

 Technical Vibes: Why the 200-Week Moving Average Rules

Here’s the tea: the Nasdaq and S&P 500 slammed into their 200-week moving average, a fortress of support that’s stood tall for over a decade. When indices hit this, they often bounce or at least chill. Even better, this level meshed with a three-point trendline support from recent lows. Two heavy-hitting supports aligning? That’s candy for long-term investors, and it kicked off this textbook rally.

Another clue? The S&P 500’s weekly RSI plunged below 30, a rare oversold signal that’s like a neon sign for a bounce. Add Trump’s 90-day tariff pause, and boom—stocks went bananas!

 Buy or Chill? Navigating a Messy Market

So, do we buy now? The past few weeks have been vibey, with stocks climbing. But take a step back, and it’s a mixed bag. The indices are still caged below key resistance levels like the 50-day and 200-day moving averages. Plus, a “death cross” just dropped—the 50-day sliding under the 200-day, a bearish red flag for the mid-to-long term.

My five-word market mood? Hopeful but hella cautious. Strong stocks are sparking, and Trump’s tariff chats are a win. But with indices stuck under resistance, we need to see if this rally can punch through to bull land or if it’ll fizzle and flop.

Shernice’s Playbook: Hunting Strong Stocks in a Choppy Market

My game plan? I’m all in on strong stocks. Take PLTR—I sniffed out its potential early, bought in during the rebound, and banked some sweet gains. What’s a strong stock? These are the MVPs that lap the market. Index up 1%? They might soar 2%, 5%, or 10%. Market tanks? They hold steady or even climb. Why? Big players like institutions are stacking them, betting on killer fundamentals or growth.

I’m vibing with stocks like PLTR, whose AI and data analytics for government clients shrug off tariffs. Trade war? They’re still clutch. Another sector I’m hyped on? Cybersecurity. Stocks like FTNT, CYBR, and RBLK are slaying, smashing past moving averages with fiery RSI signals. I hit a home run with CrowdStrike, stacking gains in just a month.

Risk Management: Don’t Get Smoked in Market Mayhem

Strong stocks rock, but risk management is the real MVP. We don’t know if the bear market’s donezo. If this rally crashes and stocks nosedive, going all-in could burn. My move? Stay hopeful but play it cool. I’m not yeeting all my cash in—I’m creeping in slow. Step one’s solid? I add a bit. Step two holds? I add more. This chill approach keeps you in the game.

Investing’s a marathon, not a race. Skip risk management, and you’re done, as Trump might say, with “no cards” left.

Brain Power: Leveling Up for 2025’s Wild Ride

The best investment? Your brain. 2025’s shaping up to be a wild ride, but it’s prime time to spot strong stocks and ride market waves. Curious about my tricks for picking winners or timing cycles? I’m eyeing HIMS & HERS next—love their sharp CEO, and I’ve done a ton of research on their biz. 

Wrap-up: in this chaotic market, hunt strong, tariff-proof stocks, keep risk locked down, and never stop learning. That’s the move. Catch you next time!
