DAILY ISSUE In Today’s Masters in Trading: Live A major divergence is brewing between large and small-cap stocks right now… Over the last few weeks, we’ve seen a widening gap between the E-Mini S&P 500 futures, the Nasdaq, and the Russell 2000. The performance gap between all three has been widening since the dramatic sell-off in March. That’s back when markets absolutely plunged to -50% levels. The S&P and Nasdaq have staged impressive recoveries since March’s major sell-off. But the Russell is telling a dramatically different story… The Russell 2000, representing smaller companies, continues to struggle. It’s trailing the major indexes even as it continues to bounce off recent lows. And it’s clear why… Smaller domestic companies are facing more headwinds than their larger counterparts as the reality of higher tariffs and supply-chain volatility catches up to the markets. And even though we have yet to see another leg up or down from here, there’s one clear takeaway for us… The elevated implied volatility in all three indexes – particularly the Russell's striking 28% IV – means options are pricing in big moves from here. This divergence between the biggest and smallest domestic stocks could create awesome volatility plays in the near term. But short of a major break-out from their current levels, we’re playing the waiting game for now. We have our setup… Now we’re just waiting for the market to flash clear buy (or sell) signals.
