Summary

The month of May saw a quite extensive sell-off, but the major difference between what we saw in May and what was seen back in Q4 of 2018, was volume. The volume was weak in May,and as a result, the selling could sustain itself for an extended period of time, which is why we are back at the all-time highs yet again.

the stock market. And today's episode, I want to talk about the volume set-off and their meaning.

0:38.5

So we've had two significant sell-offs in the last six months or so.

0:42.7

Actually, I would say it goes back further than that because of this self-off actually started

0:45.8

back in October of 2018, the fourth quarter, and we saw a self-off that ended in December

0:52.2

about six months ago.

0:53.7

And then we have one again in May.

0:55.4

So what are we looking at here?

0:57.5

What are we able to deduct from those two selloffs and how to play them?

1:12.0

I never really shorted the market. I tried a couple of times. My timing wasn't ever quite right,

but nonetheless, I took two different approaches. Why did I do that? And the bottom line is

1:22.9

it comes down to volume and the rings that we're getting from there. So going forward, what can we

1:37.4
