Hey, I'm Kramer.

Welcome to Mav Money.

Welcome to Kramer.

All right, my friends, I'm just trying to make little money.

My job is not just to entertain, but to educate, explain how we get bottoms like today.

Call me, 100, 7443, CBC, please meet you, Kramer. Sometimes it is so darned ugly that you have no choice but to view the weakness as a buying opportunity. This morning, the futures created some serious ugliness. But the individual stocks of the index wouldn't comply. Why? Because, well, we have a lot of stocks of companies that aren't making money.

And, you know, I don't like them.

We also have enough solvent, strong companies with stocks that would be getting killed this week.

So today, I felt like a little countertrend move with the real economy focused Dow Jones Industrial Average,

tumbling 310 points, while the more diversified S&P 500 dip 0.05%.

And the tech-laden NASDAQ actually gained 0.13%.

But look, I mean, it's very complicated a day because it really did feel like a bottom,

and yet I know that could be chimerical.

But how about next week?

Look, the next leg of this market comes down to the Federal Reserve and a few very important

quarters. I think both could be tailwinds after this week's vicious shakeout. Let's tackle the Fed

first because, well, they meet in less than a month on December 9th to 10th. And in the lead-up to

that meeting, we're going to hear from a ton of Fed officials. And there'll be a big, big guessing game that I can't stand. So I'm going to solve that for you right now. For example, on Monday, John Williams speaks, he's the president of the influential New York Fed. And Bulls need him to talk about how either inflation has peaked or more likely how unemployment has

gotten worse. After this week's declines, if we get some duffrage commentary, I think people

begin to creep out of their foxholes, do some buy them. Williams will be incredibly

important because he also speaks on Wednesday, and he speaks Friday. This guy's got a lot to say,

I guess. Beyond the Fed, we got the first of some very big earnings reports on Tuesday morning when we get Home Depot.
