Markets are near all-time highs, and those who have missed the boat may be feeling a little bit of FOMO. While tech stocks have led the way for most of the year, it could be time for a change. John Gagliardi, Regional Brokerage Consultant at Fidelity, joined us to discuss strategies for dealing with the fear of missing out on the rally.
Tech stocks are the best performing names of the year, but the recent downturn in the group may be signaling a rotation into other sectors. Gagliardi keys in on Alcoa, a big time materials company that often kicks off earnings season. He uses technical analysis to express whether investors may have missed out on the stock’s massive jump higher. The stock’s 20% pull back could give investors another shot.
Gagliardi explains how to use technical patterns to make rational investment decisions. He uses a Fidelity tool to pinpoint the optimal times to get into a stock. He adds that by buying at several price points, it can help reduce investment risk and give an investor the chance to bring their average cost.

Low-value imports are losing their duty-free status in the U.S. this week as part of President Donald Trump's agenda for making the nation less dependent on foreign goods. A widely used customs exemption for international shipments worth $800 or less is set to end starting on Friday. Trump already ended the “de minimis” rule for inexpensive items sent from China and Hong Kong, but having to pay import taxes on small parcels from everywhere else likely will be a big change for some small businesses and online shoppers. Purchases that previously entered the U.S. without needing to clear customs will be subject to the origin country’s tariff rate, which can range from 10% to 50%.
Southwest Airlines will soon require plus-size travelers to pay for an extra seat in advance if they can't fit within the armrests of one seat. This change is part of several updates the airline is making. The new rule starts on Jan. 27, the same day Southwest begins assigning seats. Currently, plus-size passengers can pay for an extra seat in advance and later get a refund, or request a free extra seat at the airport. Under the new policy, refunds are still possible but not guaranteed. Southwest said in a statement it is updating policies to prepare for assigned seating next year.
Cracker Barrel is sticking with its new logo. For now. But the chain is also apologizing to fans who were angered when the change was announced last week.
