Hey, Ross here:
After 42 trading days stuck below their old highs…
The major indexes finally broke through.
Plenty of investors were expecting the exact opposite.
They saw the AI bubble warnings…
The fighting in Iran…
And six straight weeks of sideways action.
Yesterday, the breakout arrived.
But the strangest part is what retail traders did right before it.
Take a look.
Chart of the Day
The top panel tracks how much money retail investors are putting into – or pulling out of – technology stocks.
And the latest bar falls straight off the chart.
Right before the major indexes finally pushed above their previous highs…
Retail investors dumped technology stocks at the fastest pace in the data going back to 2019.
They spent weeks waiting for the market to break down.
Then they dumped tech at a record pace…
Just before the indexes broke higher instead.
Now look at the bottom panel.
While retail investors were rushing out, tech’s forward P/E had fallen to roughly 20 times earnings.
That puts it near the cheapest end of its range over both the past year and the past five years.
So retail dumped tech after valuations had already been crushed…
And right before the indexes broke to new highs.
Bad timing?
Definitely – but that’s par for the course for retail traders as a whole.
That’s why it’s worth considering the other side of the equation…
Which group of traders has good timing?
But before we go into that…
There’s something about “good timing” in trading you must understand first.
Insight of the Day
The market charges you for confirmation
Here’s the problem with waiting until a trade feels safe:
By then, the stock has usually moved.
The breakout hits.
The headlines turn positive.
Everyone suddenly agrees the danger has passed.
And now you’re paying a higher price for the same shares.
Good timing rarely feels that clean.
The stock may still look ugly.
Sellers may still look like they’re in control.
And plenty of people will think you’re early.
The goal is not to guess the exact bottom.
It is to spot when the facts are getting better before the crowd notices.
And one group gets a much closer look at those facts than anyone else:
Corporate insiders.
High-level executives like CEOs, CFOs, and Directors legally snapping up their own company stock on the open market…
Despite having access to information that even the best Wall Street analysts don’t.
They see the orders.
They see the customers.
They see what is happening inside the business right now.
That’s why these insiders have some of the best timing I have ever seen…
And why, when they start buying before the chart looks good…
I pay attention.
Because they may be seeing the turn before everyone else – and positioning themselves accordingly.
And later this afternoon at 3 p.m. Eastern…
I’m going LIVE to show you exactly how to track these insider footprints…
Including revealing:
- Where to find these insider trades before the public catches on…
- The “must know” traps traders fall into when trying to follow the insiders…
- And my 3 most powerful – yet counterintuitive – insider buying signals I’ve been relying on for years
This strategy has never had a losing year…
And it could have allowed you to be sitting on open gains like 695%… 286%… and even 1,259% right now.
So don’t miss out…
Not when earnings season (the best time to use this strategy) is still running hot.
