Market Melt-Up Continues: Bullish Outlook Despite XLE Correction Risk

Chris Vermeulen says the market's price action is what matters most, not Fed Chair Jerome Powell's comments. Vermeulen thinks the market's recent pullback was a buying opportunity, and today's broad rally is a sign of a continued melt-up. He also believes the recent defensive flows into sectors like utilities and healthcare were a sign of fear that has now turned into FOMO buying. He remains bullish on the market, but sees a potential correction on the horizon for the energy sector, specifically in the XLE.
