Mish's Daily
By Mish Schneider
Today’s market story is all about divergence.
Granny Retail is flashing warning signs as the consumer continues to struggle under the pressure of rising costs and slowing momentum. Meanwhile, Granddad Russell is holding key support levels and suggesting small caps may still have fight left in them.
We break down the critical chart levels in XRT and IWM, including moving averages, support zones, and 6-month calendar ranges that could determine the market’s next major move.
The message? Markets can be bullish and bearish at the same time.
If support levels continue to hold, the broader market may stabilize. But if those levels break, risk could accelerate quickly.
Whether you’re a new investor, active self-directed trader, professional money manager, or high-net-worth investor, we have tools, models, and education designed to help you navigate these markets with confidence.
