All Gas, No Brakes Into Mechanical Buying
From Macro-To-Micro Options Power Hour recorded on Jul 9, 2025
In this short clip from Macro-To-Micro Options Power Hour, recorded on Jul 9, 2025, Samantha LaDuc and Hans Albrecht discuss how the recent geopolitical truce between Iran and Israel, combined with U.S. fiscal stimulus and seasonally bullish flows, has fueled a continued market melt-up.
They explain that while risks like tariffs and macro shocks still loom, the market has mostly shrugged them off, driven by AI enthusiasm and systematic buying from leveraged and volatility-targeting products.
Retail investors are increasingly piling into leveraged ETFs, which contributes to persistent upward pressure.
Until a major macro trigger appears, this steady, low-volatility rally makes it difficult for bears to gain traction.
