In this short clip from Macro-To-Micro Options Power Hour recorded on March 26, 2025, Samantha LaDuc and Hans Albrecht discuss the recent market action, highlighting how dispersion trades—especially in heavily shorted stocks like Tesla—drove market moves more than broad index short-covering.
They explain that while some growth stocks saw a temporary bounce, the broader trend remains weak due to macro risks like rising yields, tariff uncertainty, and a potential earlier debt ceiling crisis.
Samantha emphasizes that this environment favors short-term trades over long-term positioning, given the market's sensitivity to headlines and structural flows.
Overall, they caution against chasing rallies, noting the underlying weakness in major indices and macro signals.
