Markets don’t usually hit record highs, risk falling into bearish territory, and spring back to new highs within six months. But that’s what happened in 2025.

In this special mid-year recap, Grayson Roze sits down with David Keller, CMT, to show how disciplined routines, price-based signals, and a calm process helped them ride the whipsaw instead of getting tossed by it. You’ll see what really happened under the surface, how investor psychology drove the swings, and the exact StockCharts tools they leaned on to stay objective. 

If you’re focused on protecting capital, generating income, and sleeping well at night while still capturing the upside, this is a must-watch. Discover which charts deserve your attention now, what to ignore, and how to prep for the back half of 2025.

Here are some charts that reflect our areas of focus this week at


XLU Leads with New High

Even though the Utilities SPDR (XLU) cannot keep pace with the Technology SPDR (XLK) and Communication Services SPDR (XLC), it is in a leading uptrend. XLU formed a cup-with-handle from November to July and broke to new highs the last two weeks. ETFs hitting new highs are in strong uptrends and should be on our radar.


Metal Mania in 2025

In a tribute to Ozzy, metals are leading the way higher in 2025. The PerfChart below shows year-to-date performance for the continuous futures for 12 commodities. Copper, Platinum and Palladium are up more than 45% year-to-date, while Gold is up 28.38% and Silver is up 35.30%. QQQ is up 10.52% year-to-date, but lagging these metals. The other commodities are mixed.


Multi-Year Highs for Silver and Copper

The next chart shows 11 year bar charts for five metals. Gold broke out in early 2024 and led the metals move with an advance the last 21 months. Silver and copper broke out to multi-year highs. Platinum broke above its 2021 high and Palladium got in the action with an 18 month high. There is a clear message here: metals are moving higher and leading as a group.  


Home Construction Hits Moment of Truth

The Home Construction ETF (ITB) hit its moment of truth as it rose to its falling 40-week SMA. Notice that ITB failed just below this moving average in August 2023. During the 2023-2024 uptrend, the 40-week SMA was more friendly as ITB reversed near this level in October 2023 and June 2024. ITB surged to the falling 40-week SMA in July, but the long-term trend is down and this area could be its nemesis.

A suspected drunk driver going the wrong way on a highway in Milwaukee came close to Vice President Kamala Harris’s motorcade on Monday night, officials said.

A video obtained by WISN 12 News showed a white SUV traveling westbound in the eastbound lanes of Interstate 94 around 8:30 p.m. Monday, passing several cars in Harris’s motorcade, until it was eventually stopped by Milwaukee County sheriff’s deputies.

It’s not clear exactly how many immigrants are living in the United States without authorization, for a number of reasons.

The most obvious is that some people cross the border from Mexico and evade capture. It is definitionally hard to know how many people do so, but the government has gotten better at estimating the number in part because there are fewer places where immigrants can enter the country unobserved. It’s likely that about 2 million immigrants have entered this way since federal fiscal 2021, but it’s not clear how many of them might remain in the country. There are unquestionably many thousands more who entered the country legally (such as on a tourist visa) but didn’t leave.

MADISON, Wis. — Early voting kicked off in this battleground state this week with computer delays and long lines.

Voters waited as long as three hours Tuesday to cast ballots in West Bend, a city of about 32,000, city clerk Jilline Dobratz said. State computer issues reared up again Wednesday, and by midafternoon, voters had to wait about 90 minutes to vote in the community 40 miles northwest of Milwaukee, she said. Residents were not used to anything like it.

In the final three weeks of the presidential race, former president Donald Trump and his advisers have attacked one particular foe more than three dozen times: a little-known Kamala Harris aide named Ian Sams.

The feud with Sams, a bespectacled 35-year-old longtime foot soldier in Democratic politics, started when Sams did what few Democrats are willing to do: He went on Fox News.

Sister Stephanie Schmidt had a hunch about what her fellow nuns would discuss over dinner at their Erie, Pennsylvania, monastery on Wednesday night.

The day before, a Republican operative in the battleground state falsely suggested to his nearly 58,000 followers on X that no one lived at the monastery and that mail ballots cast from there would be “illegal votes.” Cliff Maloney, who hired 120 people to go door-to-door across Pennsylvania urging Republican voters to return their mail ballots, wrote on X that one of those workers had “discovered” an Erie address where 53 people were registered to vote but “NO ONE lives there.”
