First weekly loss in 2022: Leave or stay?
16K Views ·54 Posts
The Nasdaq Index dropped 4.5% on the first week of 2022, posting its biggest weekly percentage fall since February 2021.
The Dec. policy meeting signaled that the Fed may have to raise rates sooner than expected. Hence, some investors are concerned that the hiking interest rate will slash the stock market (i.e. tap on the link below to view more), and it's time to leave the table. However, other investors choose to stay in the game. In December 2013, the Fed began to taper but the stock market went north after limited correction.
Will you leave the table or stay in the game? Should we make investing decisions based on such predictions? How to invest under hiking rates?

ColumnWhy did the market rise on Powell's inflation comments?
What's new
US stock indexes gained ground on Tuesday with Nasdaq leading the advance as investors were relieved that Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's testimony to Congress did not include any major surprises.
Why the reaction?
The market has been trying to digest the interest rate hikes for weeks. Investors are already prepared for the worst. When there was no surprise news, the market tended to recoup some losses immediately.

$NVIDIA(NVDA.US$ any ideas why Nasdaq and Bitcoin dropped today? It seems Nasdaq and Dow have just been Sea-sawing for sometime and tomorrow is a nasdaq day again.

$Advanced Micro Devices(AMD.US$ I am not bearish on AMD but it seems like nasdaq will give up at least 800 points before it starts going back up .. I am keeping powder ready for loading up on calls in case this falls to $120-$125 range.. futures are solid red .. airlines and hotels are getting cancellation requests in record numbers.. ppl are postponing their last minute vacation.. gonna go on puts on airlines stocks tomorrow.. let’s see how it plays out.. in past market had turned solid green after futures being solid red (more than -400) .. but it’s very highly unlikely tomorrow IMO .. and if it goes up I think it will be a bull trap like last Wednesday…

Go with the Flow
Since interest rate hikes are inevitable, I would adapt to it by buying bank stocks as they will generally benefit from the rate increase. I am buying $JPMorgan(JPM.US$ in anticipation that they will announce spectacular results this week on 14 Jan, sell after the earnings release, and switch to $Goldman Sachs(GS.US$ in anticipation of better than expected results on 18 Jan. Hope these two short term trades will turn out as planned and that there will not be any nasty surprise...

Like Nike, Just hoot it!
Why leave the table, if stock all the way up how to play? Need to had up and down then fun, if not it will be very boring, then go catch fish catch butterfly better. Every up and down got it own opportunity, when see it just hoot it. We need Fed, shorties and more bad news so we can buy at low, so, I won't leave the table unless you move the table out of the house, but still i will keep hugging the table.

NASDAQ drop in first week of 2022!
Welcome back Mooers. 
In today post, we will discuss if we should leave or stay after NASDAQ dropped 4.5% on the first week of 2022.
After the FED signal to raise interest rates sooner in their December 2021 meeting to fight against inflation, NASDAQ post its biggest weekly drop since February 2021.
One of the reasons for the drop is because the cost of borrowing will become more expensive as interest rates goes up.

$SPDR S&P 500 ETF(SPY.US$$S&P 500 index(.SPX.US$$NASDAQ(NASDAQ.US$ The end of an era could very well be upon us. Black swan? 20% I’d like to see . 40% even better. Waiting on equities to plunge shortly after. But… firearms and ammunition will continue to hedge against inflation as a physical asset. I still love my decision months ago, but damn I miss range time as much as I used to go.
