New Market Video Update
| | | Hey there, it's Blake. | While everyone's going crazy over Microsoft and Meta's earnings surprises yesterday, something fascinating happened that almost nobody noticed. | Pretty much every sector in the S&P 500 is red this week. | All of them... except one outlier that's up 2% while everything else has fallen. | And it's probably the last sector you'd think of. | Not tech. Not AI stocks. Not the FANGs. | Utilities. | I know, I know. "Boring" utilities. But check this out: | The utilities sector (XLU) has quietly rallied from $72 to $86 in just four months. | That's outpacing every other sector by 6% in just the last three days. | While mega-caps are making headlines, utilities are making new 52-week highs. | This is a classic flight to safety. | But here's what makes it interesting - it's defensive AND pays you while you wait. | Take a look at some individual names: | AEP just crushed earnings and jumped 15% to $113... while ALSO paying you 3.29% to hold it. | Excel Energy is hitting new highs AND throwing off 3.1%. | Dominion? 4.5% dividend just for owning the damn thing. | Think about this strategy: Buy a utility stock that's trending higher, collect 3-4% annually in dividends, and if you want to get fancy, sell covered calls against your position. | That's three income streams from one "boring" trade. | When utilities outperform the mega-caps that "blew the doors off earnings," that tells you something important about where smart money is flowing. | WATCH: I break down my complete approach to dividend momentum plays in today's market video update. | This could also be signaling that healthcare and consumer staples are next in line for this defensive rotation. We'll see. | But for now, while everyone's chasing the shiny tech objects, the real money might be in the most boring sector of all. | Talk soon,
Blake | P.S. Utilities aren't my only play right now. I'm also going after 10% monthly gains with EuroFX futures next week. Different game, same discipline. Follow along here if you want to see how it plays out. | | | |
