As I write, the futures are up. Let's hope they stay that way.

The market did bounce from the lows at $SPX 3,700, but it was lackluster.

In order for this market to head back up hill, the SPX would have to get above 3,750 and hold it for a move to 3,775.

Someone years back decided to convince people who are bad at math that the Nasdaq is a good representation of the stock market.

With every day passes, particularly in 2022, the market continues to prove how silly that whole thing is.

Whatever you need to do to remember it, do not EVER forget:

The NASDAQ is NOT the stock market.

This is that time again where we try to see through the fog of short-term moves and identify the long-term structure of the market. Every month, this process helps have a clear vision going into the new month. So let's dive in and look at some of these charts!

The largest insider transaction on today's list is a Form 4 filing by the chairman and CEO of American Assets Trust $AAT, Ernest Rady.

Rady reported the purchase of $1.3 million.

It's anybody's guess where we go from here.

I think Mr. Market was looking for a glimmer of light from our Fed Chair, and that did not happen.

When investing in the stock market, we always want to approach it as "a market of stocks."

Regardless of the environment, there are always stocks showing leadership and trending higher.

We may have to look harder to identify them depending on current market conditions. But there are always stocks that are going up.

The same can be said for weak stocks. Regardless of the environment, there are always stocks that are going down, too. 

We already have multiple scans focusing on stocks making all-time highs, such as Hall of Famers, Minor Leaguers, and the 2 to 100 Club.

We filter these universes for stocks that are exhibiting the best momentum and relative strength characteristics. 

Clearly, we spend a lot of time identifying and writing about leading stocks every week, via multiple reports.

Now, we're also highlighting lagging stocks on a recurring basis.

Welcome to the Short Report.

That was a roller-coaster ride, and a wild one.

After the FOMC meeting the markets took a dive, just like last meeting.

This is the video recording of our November 2, 2022, Inside Scoop Weekly Strategy Session.

We debuted a new scan recently which goes by the name- All Star Momentum.

All Star Momentum is a brand new scan that guides us toward the very best stocks in the market. We have incorporated our stock universe of Nifty 500 as the base this time around. Among the 500 stocks that we follow, this scan will pump out names that are most likely to outperform the market.

This week we're looking at a stock from the industrial manufacturing sector. Stocks from this sector continue to show strength as the market continues to rally.

The largest insider transaction on today's list was reported in a Form 4 filing by former Coca-Cola $KO director Herbert Allen.

Allen reported a purchase worth roughly $2 million.
