V-ictory Formation: “The” Bottom looks behind us, Here’s What We Think is Next for Stocks

In this quick, data‑packed update, I walk you through why our team called the April 7 market bottom in real time, how the ensuing “V‑bottom” has already delivered a 1,000‑point surge, and most importantly, what history says usually follows moves like these. You’ll see the hard numbers behind my “Victory formation” thesis, learn why a slow grind to new highs (and a summer pullback worth buying) is the most likely path, and discover how the presidential cycle, breadth thrusts, and past 20 % rebounds all point to double‑digit gains over the next 12–18 months. By the end, you’ll know why I’m staying bullish, where I’m setting my sights for year‑end 2025, and how to position to ride the next leg higher with confidence.

Pres. Trump vs. Fed Chair Jerome Powell: Interest Rate Smackdown

What does the brewing battle over interest rates between President Trump and Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell mean for investors like you? Using real-time market data and historical context, I break down whether the Fed is keeping rates too high, how past decisions played out, and why the President may actually have the better read on today’s economy. If you're wondering where interest rates are headed, what inflation data is really telling us, and how this policy tug-of-war could affect your investments or retirement plans, today's video is a must-watch.

Stock Market V-Bottom: History Is Repeating and Most Investors May Still Be on the Sidelines

Buckle up for our team's latest analysis on why we believe the market likely hit its low back in early April and is now following a classic V-bottom recovery pattern without the help of Fed rate cuts. Find out why many investors and media voices got it wrong, how breadth and momentum are broadening beyond just big tech, and what historical patterns suggest about the next few months for the S&P 500. I also walk through key technical indicators like the Zweig Breadth Thrust and explain why our 2025 year-end target of 6600 still stands. If you're wondering whether it's too late to get back in, especially after missing the bottom, this video breaks down what to expect next and how to stay grounded in data, not fear.

From Panic to Peak: Why Markets May Hit New Highs This Summer

The April 7th low marked a major turning point for the stock market and today we talk about how history, technical signals, and market breadth indicators support a bullish outlook going forward. I explain the significance of recent breadth thrusts, including a rare combination that has historically led to strong market gains, and why most investors missed this “V-bottom” rebound. We also discuss the market’s reaction to the recent U.S. debt downgrade by Moody’s and compare it to similar events in 2011 and 2023. You'll learn why I don't expect a major pullback this time and what patterns suggest we could see new highs this summer. Watch to better understand where markets may be heading and how to position your portfolio accordingly.

V-Bottoms: No One Get's In, Bears left Behind

There was a sharp market rally that followed the early April lows—what many are calling a “V-bottom”—and most investors missed the rebound. Today let's talk about how real-time market data, not media narratives, pointed to improving conditions well before the news of tariff reductions between the U.S. and China hit. I also compare today’s market setup to the mid-1998 Dot-Com period, not the bubble peak, highlighting what historical patterns and investor sentiment are signaling now. If you’re wondering whether it’s too late to get back in—or if the rally is real—this video gives you my honest perspective, backed by data, charts, and the research we’re doing daily at Oak Harvest.

Stocks Rebound: Have We Seen the Market Bottom?

Despite all the noise from the media and bearish forecasters, the data suggests we may have already seen the lows for this cycle. I cover the recent stock market volatility, highlight key technical patterns, and break down important economic indicators like job growth, wage data, and bond market trends. You’ll get my perspective on why I believe we’re not heading into a deep recession and why now might actually be a good time for long-term investors to stay the course—or even add to their portfolios. I also share historical parallels that help put today’s market into context and give you a clearer picture of what to watch for next.

A GOAT shows on April 24th: Perfect Historic Track Record

Despite all the recent market turmoil, our team at OHFG believes April 7th will be likely marked the low—not just a low—for the S&P 500, and why historical signals like the rare Zweig Breadth Thrust are flashing strong bullish signs for the next 6–12 months. I break down the data behind these signals, explain why panicking now is often a mistake for long-term investors, and share who you should and shouldn’t be listening to when it comes to making decisions about your money.

Market Correction or Bear Market? This Could Change How You See Aprils Drop

Let's cut to the chase about the recent volatility in the markets and what it could mean for long-term investors. You’ll hear my take on whether April 7th marked a low or the low for the S&P 500, why I believe now may actually be a time to consider buying rather than retreating, and why the much-feared "Death Cross" may be more of a lagging indicator than a useful signal. I also compare today’s market drop to similar periods in 1998 and 2001, and share data-backed insights showing how investor sentiment, volatility spikes, and historical patterns could be pointing to opportunity. If you’re feeling unsure about where we’re headed or what to do next, this video is for you.

Sometimes: You Gotta Close Your Eyes and Buy (or Laugh)

In this podcast, I take you through what has been one of the most unexpected and chaotic starts to a presidential term in modern market history—what I’m calling “Trump 2.0 meets economic whiplash.” You’ll learn why the markets went from optimism and strength to panic and selloff almost overnight, how the surprise implementation of global tariffs reshaped investor sentiment, and why historical market cycles—like Dot.com and LTCM—may offer a blueprint for what could come next. I share insights from decades of market experience, draw powerful parallels between past and present, and show how volatility often creates opportunity, not just anxiety. Whether you’re a long-term investor or someone just trying to make sense of the headlines, I’ll explain why sometimes you just have to laugh at the madness and stay focused on the bigger picture.
