On November 25, Matt Powers, managing partner of Powers Advisory Group, joined CNBC’s ‘Squawk Box’ to discuss what to make of recent volatility and why he believes that value will start to pick up. Regarding the signs of market capitulation observed last week, it was acknowledged that the current signs might differ from historical norms. Powers announced his firm’s decision to upgrade equities to overweight at the close of the prior week, expressing an expectation for new all-time highs and a good chance to surpass 7,000 for the S&P 500 index by the end of the year. This optimistic outlook was supported by several factors. First, the group’s internal sentiment model, which aggregates key positioning and sentiment data, had registered extreme pessimism. Second, they observed a significant spike in inverse ETF volume, a measure they use to track retail capitulation. This volume reached its highest level in two years, a pattern that has historically marked near-term market bottoms. Third, they pointed to the level of hidden pain in the recent pullback; while the main index was down just over 5% peak to trough, the median stock was down more than 16% from its 52-week high. Historically, this amount of pain in individual stocks suggests a more severe correction, closer to 10%, for the overall index. Combining these technical and sentiment signals with positive seasonal trends, Powers concluded that the market is set up for a very strong end of the year.

Powers, while finding the strong performance of both the Equal Weight S&P and the Russell 2000 encouraging, injected a note of caution regarding the latter. He characterized being long the Russell 2000 as very much a rates bet, explaining that the Russell is the subsegment of the market most sensitive to interest rate movements. Given that the 10-year yield was down to 4%, holding a long position in the Russell is a bet that rates will continue to fall along a glide path while economic growth remains robust. The guest described this as a needle that needs to be threaded, and while the one-day performance was healthy, the index was not where they would currently focus their investments.

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 53

Average Upside Potential as of November 25: 44.66%

Peloton Interactive Inc. (NASDAQ:PTON) is one of the most promising stocks with huge upside potential. On November 20, Citi analyst Ronald Josey cut the price target on Peloton to $8.25 from $9.50 while keeping a Neutral rating on the shares after the company posted its FQ1 2026 earnings report. The firm also lowered its full-year subscriber forecast for Peloton by 3% due to a rise in customer turnover.

Peloton’s total revenue for FQ1 reached $551 million, comprising $152 million from Connected Fitness products and $398 million from subscription revenue. While this revenue was a decline of 6.01% year-over-year, it was still $9.72 million higher than Street estimates. The company’s EPS also surpassed guidance by $0.05 and totaled $0.06. Peloton’s full-year revenue guidance remains unchanged at $2.4 to $2.5 billion.

The company’s Connected Fitness paid subscriptions totaled 2.732 million in the said quarter, which was a 6% decrease from the year-ago period due to challenges in maintaining subscriber growth. The average net monthly churn, however, improved to 1.6%, better by 0.2% year-over-year. Despite the subscription decrease, the company experienced a decline of 5% in Connected Fitness products revenue due to lower equipment sales and deliveries.
