Insider Buying -Interest rates may have peaked but the damage to earnings is just beginning

Market gains are muted, and traders are quick to snatch profits.  Rallies are reversed almost daily as market direction is indecisive.  By many measures, bargains in the stock market are hard to come by.  The earnings yield of the S&P 500 is 3.98%, and the P.E. is historically on the low side.  Earnings surprises are met with a sell-the-news trading mentality.  The economy is showing signs of…

One way this is not like 2008, Insiders are NOT Buying -Insider Buying Week 3-10-23
