Unless the stock market can stage a massive rally in the next 3 days, otherwise all 3 major indices will end the month with a loss.
To note, Sep is yet another seasonal bearish month.
In my view, bearishness in a bull market spells opportunities.

Was looking into this. I have VDC and XLP on my watch list. What are your thoughts on these ETFs? I can see how this can be put into a portfolio as a glorified savings account.
Any pros and cons on Consumer Staple ETFs you all like to share?

I just bought some VDC $バンガード・米国生活必需品セクターETF(VDC.US)$ , or Vanguard Consumer Staples. Biggest holdings: P&G, Coke, Walmart, Pepsi, Costco, and a few tobacco companies. I'm not sure if you consider consumer defensive 'value.'
Also VCR $バンガード・米国一般消費財・サービス・セクターETF(VCR.US)$ , but it is a bit too growth dominant (e.g., Amazon, Tesla). It has stuff like Home Depot, Lowes, Nike $ナイキ B(NKE.US)$ , McDonalds, Target $ターゲット(TGT.US)$ . I think VDC is more recession proof, and VCR already overlaps with VTI.

The company has three core business lines: SelectQuote Senior, SelectQuote Life and SelectQuote Auto and Home. SelectQuote Senior, the largest and fastest-growing business, serves the needs of a demographic that sees 10,000 people turn 65 each day with a range of Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement plans from 15 leading, nationally-recognized carriers, as well as prescription drug plan, dental, vision and hearing plans.
1. Stock is showing consistent price increase and is up by 74% (from 7.6 to 13.23 ) since my DD. The whole market was taking a hit last week which also slowed down the momentum a bit but I expected it to start climbing back up.
a. Keep in mind that it has consolidated around $13.22 which is also a bullish sign for next upward run.
2. Insider buying continues to climb as per latest reported data of 9/13 and it is a market buy. The data shows that executives are piling up on their shares.
3. Expansion: Company is very focused on building their analytics capabilities and also recruiting from Ivy-league for leadership roles (Source: Linkedin)
4. Industry Performance: Both ROA and ROA are one of the best in the industry.
5. Investment Rating: Current buy rating is 89% with High PT of $25.28 and lowest of $13 with median of $20.40%
6. SLQT has better profit margins 13.97% which outperforms the industry average of 10.48%. Also it has one of the best return on assets (9.14%) as compared to industry average which also is a good predictor of both short and long term good performance i.e 96% outperformed the industry.
7. Overall SI is around 4-5% which also suggests that institutions don’t find any reason for SLQ to perform poorly and hence shorting it.
8. Options premium are some of the cheapest ones if one is interested in it
9. SLQT as a business have competitive advantage and at least decade more experience in the industry in comparison to its competitors including $ゴーヘルス(GOCO.US)$- reason why I chose SLTQ instead of GOCO
10. Currently it has entered a resistance level and once broke, it will be testing $17, then $19. Using both quantitative & qualitative analysis, I expect the stock to go in 20s range in next 2-3 weeks
11. The biggest catalyst that can push SLQT to 30s range or even higher is Enrollment Period of October November (Keep in mind that SLQT targets a market where more than 75% of target group uses this platform)
12. I personally believe that even highest price target is very low and it should trade in $50s soon (I work in healthcare industry as consultant and keeping up with trends is how I make living)
