Summary

All the ingredients seem to be in place for a melt-up in the stock market into year-end. John Roque of Wolfe Research and Joe Terranova of Virtus Investment Partners join Josh Brown for a discussion about small caps catching up with large caps, favoring quality and momentum in portfolio construction, what's going on with the US dollar sell-off, and more. Plus, you may not realize it but you just won a cosmic coin flip. Many other people were not so lucky, they ended up on the other side of a bet they didn't even get a chance to make.
