Is the Russell 2000 Forming a Double Top? Mish Schneider on Small Caps, Triple Witching & What’s Ahead

WealthWise: Is the Russell 2000 Forming a Double Top? Mish Schneider on Small Caps, Triple Witching & What’s Ahead Join ⁠WealthWise with Jeffrey Hirsch⁠ live with ⁠Mish Schneider⁠, Chief Strategist at ⁠MarketGauge.com⁠, as they unpack some of the most pressing market patterns and risks right now. Highlights include: The Russell 2000 recently hit highs comparable to November 2024, prompting talk of a double top formation. While momentum has pushed small-caps higher in recent weeks, Mish warns this pattern could signal resistance ahead unless confirmed. All four major U.S. indices — Russell 2000, S&P 500, Nasdaq, and the Dow — just closed at record highs together, a rare alignment since November 2021. What does this broad strength mean if the Russell 2000 can’t break above its resistance zone? Sector performance under the microscope: regional banks, transports, energy. Are rate cuts enough to power small caps next, or will they lag behind larger, more rate-sensitive names? Upcoming Triple Witching Friday looms large: with over $5 trillion in options, index, and futures contracts set to expire, some traders expect volatile action. We discuss whether this volume will translate into sharp swings or if markets will digest it quietly. Mish also shares her favorite setups, what chart signals she’s watching closely, and how she balances risk when patterns look extended. Don’t miss it — this is essential if you trade or invest around small caps, rate cuts, or technical triggers. ⁠Subscribe to CrossCheck Media on YouTube⁠ to catch Mish’s full technical breakdowns live. 📢 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Like⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 👍 | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Comment⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💬 | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🔔 for more in-depth market analysis! 🔗 Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://crosscheckmanagement.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📧 Contact on Email: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected] ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in this episode are those of the guests and hosts and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media or Biz Talk Today TV.
