Options Corner: Software Sector
This week's selling among the software group stood out to Rick Ducat on the charts. He cues up the IGV ETF to show the sector-wide pressures impacting the space. Rick points to a falling wedge pattern over the past several months, with moving averages also tilting downward and its RSI study falling to oversold levels. Later, Tom White demonstrates a neutral to bullish strategy for IGV by selling a put. In his example trade, Tom explains how the cash-secured put could position a trader for a rebound in this software group.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

AI Shifting Areas of Employment in U.S. Economy
Jordan Shapiro joins Diane King Hall to assess the state of the U.S. labor market. In the wake of a delayed January jobs report, Jordan delves a "little deeper" into the data that was reported, including the Challenger-Job cuts hitting the highest levels since 2009. He points to companies' leveraging technology, ways to streamline productivity and shifting areas of employment within their organizations. Jordan says employees are "more hesitant" to look for jobs now citing a "low hire, low fire" environment. He adds that some cuts at bigger companies could be a response to "over-hiring" in the post-pandemic spree to attain talent. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Technical Recovery Underway, AMZN AI Costs & Bitcoin Support Test
The sustainability of Friday's bounce remains in question. Kevin Green suggests the S&P 500 (SPX) is finding temporary support at its 100-day moving average, though elevated volatility and new sellers entering the market indicate a "dead cat bounce" remains a distinct possibility. On the earnings front, Amazon (AMZN) shares experienced volatility following its massive CapEx forecast of $200 billion by 2026. Later, KG examines the crypto space, as Bitcoin (BTC) attempts to defend critical support levels near $55,000. Kevin notes that while the asset has recently mirrored the price action of software stocks, it continues to show signs of decoupling from the broader U.S. equity market.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Chart of the Day: Bitcoin's Selling Action This Week
Rachel Dashiell dials up the chart of Bitcoin (/BTC) to look at the "velocity of this selloff" occurring this week.

Charlie O’Shea previews Amazon (AMZN) earnings and discusses the high bar the Street has set. Amazon’s going to have to “hold the line on margins” on the retail side, which may be difficult because it tends to make its money from discounting, he argues. He’s incredibly interested in the results this quarter. He lays out spending expectations for AWS, as well as what’s riding on their advertising business. “The company’s incredibly opaque,” he adds.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

The Stabilizing Effect of Fixed Income in a Portfolio
Fixed income is reclaiming its role as a portfolio stabilizer now that interest rates have returned to historical norms. Kevin Flanagan explains why investors should consider a barbell strategy using USFR as a passive cornerstone and AGGY for a reweighted approach to the traditional aggregate index. Despite labor market and deficit concerns, Kevin remains focused on moderate growth rather than a recession while suggesting a more active approach to sector allocation. He concludes that upcoming labor data and the unemployment rate remain the primary signals for the health of the U.S. economy.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Insider Ownership Drives Long-Term Market Success: MSFT vs. META
Markets reflect that trust and "skin in the game" often outweigh raw data, as shown by the contrasting recent earnings of Microsoft (MSFT) and Meta (META).

GOOGL ‘Invented AI as We Know It’, PLTR ‘Really Expensive’
Sarah Kunst says Nvidia (NVDA) and Alphabet (GOOGL) are being “punished for doing a good job,” but it could be people taking gains after a great run. The tech sector is seeing a bifurcation, with some names being punished as investors go back to fundamentals, she argues. She likes GOOGL’s stock, saying it “invented AI as we know it” and will be a major winner in the sector. One of the underlying questions of AI is when revenue will even “slightly begin to build up” to the levels promised. She thinks Palantir (PLTR) is too expensive, noting that it is a consulting company valued like a tech company. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.
