Today we sit down with my old pal Larry McDonald.

When it comes to the bond market, Larry is the guy I want to talk to. And with Bonds getting off to their worst start to a year, maybe ever, what better time than the present to dive into the fixed income markets?

While I had him, we also discussed the equities markets, commodities, metals and Crypto.

This was a fun one.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Today we sit down and chat with Professional Trader Kimmy Sokoloff.

I'm lucky to have known Kimmy for well over a decade, and we hit it off from the start.

Kimmy went through the CMT program in the 90s. And funny enough, volunteered later on with the CMT Association to grade Level 3 exams, which are mostly essays. We joke that she most likely graded mine in 2007-2008.

While I like to look out weeks and months for my timeframes, Kimmy focuses specifically on the hours and days. A 2 week trade for her is "Long-term".

We're both trained in similar ways, as CMT Charter holders. But our experiences are different.

Kimmy spent most of her career in Institutional Sales and Trading. She spent decades on the phones all day with huge funds.

So when Kimmy has something to say, we want to listen. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.

On this episode of Pardon The Price Action, we're talking about which stocks have been, and are, benefiting the most from higher interest rates.

Insurance stocks are ripping, International equities are outperforming and it's not just Energy commodities that are doing well. We're also seeing the strength in Base Metals and Agriculture.

With many Growth stocks still under pressure, which are some of the best areas to sell short?

On this episode of Pardon The Price Action, we're talking about the implications of rising interest rates. This is no longer an environment where Growth stocks outperform. It's actually the exact opposite.

We're also seeing these signs from other countries around the world with much more exposure to the Value sectors like Energy, Materials, Industrials and Financials.

US Investors have a lot more exposure to Technology and Growth than almost every other country in the world.

I think Latin America is worth watching, China and many other emerging markets.

We believe this time IS different!
