Stocks Up 10.6% since Kaminis' February Call - What’s Next?

Kaminis call on stocks
Fidelity.com SPY Chart Reflecting Appreciation Since Kaminis Recommendation

Well, it looks like the market has absolutely no concern about the miniscule job growth reported for May, and is absolutely only counting on how it plays for the Fed… for now. Readers of my work know that I have been forecasting a Q2 economic pickup and am not a believer in deterioration. They will also be aware of my buy stocks call made back on February 18 and reinforced on February 19th, notably at the height of fear. But the market, I expected, would worry about such a poor economic data point, so I suggested investors should protect their wealth on Friday. Capital did shift back into safer sectors Friday morning, but risky bets returned into the close and to start this week. It seems greed is good for now and stocks could push to that 52-week high we thought we would reach last week. The most aggressive of risk takers may take further upside here on the greed-driven run to and possibly through the 52-week high, but I cannot recommend in good conscience new long stakes in risky equities now. There are far too many perils ahead for us in June and the margin of safety that existed in February has gone away. There are risks to this view (listed below), and they should be paid attention to as we progress forward. See this whole report on stocks here.
