Afternoon Note

Beaten Names Getting Action

It’s a solid session that really informs on a more determined effort to move away from an over reliance on growth.

The biggest winners are General Electric (GE) and Boeing (BA), and there a fair amount of additional beaten down names getting action.

The Industrials act fantastic and continue their three months out performance.

The University of Michigan's consumer sentiment rose to 81.2 in October from 80.4 in September and remains way below pre-coronavirus levels.

Current conditions dropped to 84.9 from 87.8 employment growth slows, the Covid-19 infections are rising and there is no stimulus package in sight.

Consumer Sentiment	October	September
Sentiment	81.2	80.4
Expectations	78.8	75.6
Present	84.9	87.8

There is still an air of caution, as earning season is just getting underway, and we are less than a month before the election outcome.

Overall, I am very encouraged by the market. Have a great weekend.

Charles, I have watched you even before your own show, and have continued to watch your show from the beginning. I have made several investments from watching your show, and I have been successful in doing so.
Keep up the great work!

How much of the increased unemployment claims report was due to California catching up on months of unprocessed applications? Likely to continue but misleading.
