Weekly Stock Market Forecast

This week we have a stock market forecast for the week of 3/6/2022 from our friend Bo Yoder of the Market Forecasting Academy. Be sure to leave a comment and let us know what you think!

The S&P 500 (SPY)

Not a lot of clarity out there after a week of post-invasion and a state of the union speech!

There are a lot of cross-currents out there right now, and the risk just isn't worth the reward, in my view.

I'll plan to sit tight in SPY again and deploy a little risk into a new trade as I wait for more substantial clarity to show itself.

Costco (COST)

Costco has enjoyed a major rally over the last year or so, coming off its lows near $320 per share to top out near $570 per share.

There are a lot of profits to be taken in this stock, and the lower high that is forming will be a trigger event that should produce some substantial downside, as long as the price stays under the $550 per share level.

I had a lot of stocks offering setups this week but passed on all but this one because the risk is so small vs. the reward potential. I'm willing to be aggressive and risk a stop out if I think the trade can deliver $3 or more for every $1 I put at risk.

iShares Silver Trust (SLV)

I was on the fence about keeping my SLV position vs. exiting and stalking a re-entry. However, the strength in both gold and silver this week gives me the confidence to stay in and let this run.

There's not a lot to add; the trade plan remains valid, so it's time to see some trend!
