Stocks rallying the last two weeks have been a gift

S2N spotlight

One of the strategies I will be using to grow my user base is experimenting with lead magnets. I haven’t really used Excel for nearly 10 years, but it is still the most used tool in the finance and investment space, so I thought I should build something that people might find useful. Python is so much easier to work in than VBA and Excel.

Here is an Excel-based backtesting tool I spent the week building. I could have done it in Python in less than an hour.

This is a really basic model, but I think it is user-friendly and helpful.

S2N observations

Stocks rallying the last 2 weeks have been a gift. My advice is to be defensive and lighten up; liquidity is going to be your best friend. Nothing more to say today.

S2N screener alert

The S&P 500 has been up 8 days in a row. Only happened 44 times in 50 years.

Gold had a 5 Z-score down day, not unexpected given the amount it has climbed.
