WealthWise: Is the Russell 2000 Forming a Double Top? Mish Schneider on Small Caps, Triple Witching & What’s Ahead

Join ⁠WealthWise with Jeffrey Hirsch⁠ live with ⁠Mish Schneider⁠, Chief Strategist at ⁠MarketGauge.com⁠, as they unpack some of the most pressing market patterns and risks right now.

Highlights include:

• The Russell 2000 recently hit highs comparable to November 2024, prompting talk of a double top formation. While momentum has pushed small-caps higher in recent weeks, Mish warns this pattern could signal resistance ahead unless confirmed.

• All four major U.S. indices — Russell 2000, S&P 500, Nasdaq, and the Dow — just closed at record highs together, a rare alignment since November 2021. What does this broad strength mean if the Russell 2000 can’t break above its resistance zone?

• Sector performance under the microscope: regional banks, transports, energy. Are rate cuts enough to power small caps next, or will they lag behind larger, more rate-sensitive names?

• Upcoming Triple Witching Friday looms large: with over $5 trillion in options, index, and futures contracts set to expire, some traders expect volatile action. We discuss whether this volume will translate into sharp swings or if markets will digest it quietly.

Mish also shares her favorite setups, what chart signals she’s watching closely, and how she balances risk when patterns look extended.

Don’t miss it — this is essential if you trade or invest around small caps, rate cuts, or technical triggers. ⁠Subscribe to CrossCheck Media on YouTube⁠ to catch Mish’s full technical breakdowns live.

Tune in: The Trader’s Code goes live today with ⁠Danielle Shay⁠ and ⁠Fibonacci Princess⁠ (of ElliottWaveTrader.net) digging into high-probability chart setups, risk management, and how to trade what you see — especially ahead of the Fed meeting and potential volatility.

In this episode:

• Fibonacci Princess walks us through real chart analysis: Tesla resistance around $422-426, support zones near $400, and setups in BMNR, Microsoft, and OKLO.

• She emphasizes locking in profits and using trailing stops — especially now that many stocks have run hard.

• Market sentiment is stretched. TSLA just broke out of a symmetrical triangle, but key resistance and overbought momentum warn of possible pullbacks.

• Broader backdrop: The Fed just cut rates by 25 bps, and markets expect more easing by year-end. However, despite the rate cut, analysts warn of a “sell the news” reaction as much of this has already been priced in.

🎧 If you're listening in audio, don’t miss the charts! The ⁠video version⁠ (YouTube & Spotify) shows every line, setup, and target Danielle & Fibonacci Princess use live.

📅 Get ready, determine your risk, set your targets — this one could save you a lot.

Live on The Money Path, host ⁠Todd Schoenberger⁠ sits down with ⁠José Torres⁠, Senior Economist at Interactive Brokers (IBKR) to parse today’s Federal Reserve decision and what’s ahead.

Highlights include:

• The Fed cuts interest rates by 25 basis points — largely expected — with only one dissenter (Stephen Miran), and expectations for two more cuts by year-end. (Market watchers like Morgan Stanley now expect cuts at all three remaining meetings.)

• August job growth came in weak (around +22,000 jobs), and June was revised to show job losses — a signal that the labor market is cooling. Torres discusses how these data revisions factor into the Fed’s thinking on cuts and accommodation.

• Chair Powell’s upcoming press conference is likely to feature a neutral strategy, balancing assurances of policy independence amidst political pressure, and emphasizing incoming economic data over speculation. (Recent reports confirm Powell explicitly stating there is “no big push for a larger rate cut” beyond 25 bps.)

• Sector implications: real estate and small businesses may need relief; inflation-tariff interplay; what falling rates could mean for growth stocks, interest-sensitive sectors, and long-term rates.
