Even though the stock market has performed miserably lately, and throughout most of 2022, macroeconomic data shows there is reason to be hopeful equities can rebound meaningfully sooner rather than later. Moreover, unlike in April, May and June, a significant number of non-defensive stocks across numerous sectors are holding their own and even advancing on some big down days. As a result, it’s much easier for short- and medium-term investors to find promising growth stocks to buy than it was in the second quarter. Underlying my confidence in the market is the fact that U.S. consumer confidence just hit its highest level since April . The Conference Board’s Consumer Confidence Index rose to 108 this month from 103.6 in August, beating expectations despite recession fears. Furthermore, despite the drag of rapidly rising interest rates, sales of new houses unexpectedly surged nearly 29% in August compared with July. If you’re looking for hidden bull market opportunities, here are seven growth stocks to buy.

Futures Slide As Hawkish Rikshock Sends Dollar, Yields Higher Again Ahead Of Fed Market sentiment was quite cheerful heading into the overnight session, with futures hitting a third-day high of 3,936 thanks to yesterday'' late day delta squeeze (plunge in VIX as both calls and especially puts were sold) but then it quickly soured after first German PPI came in at a mindblowing 45.8% (vs expectations of 37.1%) the highest on record since World War II… ...but what really spooked futures was the record hike by the Swedish central bank, the Riksbank, which pushed the repo rate higher by a more than expected 100bps to 1.75%, and even though the central bank eased back on terminal rate expectations, the market still saw the Riksbank surprise as potentially indicative of what the BOE and Fed may do in the coming hours.

While no shortage of guidance exists regarding investment opportunities, investors with some funds earmarked for speculation may want to consider stocks to buy that hedge funds are also acquiring. The philosophy here is fairly straightforward: Rather than listen to some internet luminary, retail investors can trade alongside market professionals who have skin in the game. A critical advantage here is informational leverage. Your average retail investor doesn’t have hours to research compelling stocks to buy and may be limited in their analytical tools. However, the best hedge funds enjoy access to both advanced mechanisms and the brightest minds. Of course, wagering on stocks based on hedge fund activity has its risks. Rich people can afford to make mistakes, while retail investors who overextend themselves may suffer crippling financial damage. Therefore, it’s probably best to wade in slowly before plunking down serious money in this endeavor. Still, if you’ve run through your risk-reward checklist, here are three stocks to buy that the hedge funds have targeted .

Macau To Ease Lockdown Saturday If Virus Conditions Allow The world''s largest gambling hub, Macau, will reopen businesses as soon as this weekend "if the current pandemic situation remains stable or improves," reported Macau Business . Macau authorities revealed lockdowns would ease on July 23 and end on July 30, with essential and non-essential businesses allowed to resume limited operations. All casinos and non-essential businesses were shuttered on July 11 after the autonomous region on the south coast of China reported a flare-up in COVID-19 infections. "The reduction in daily reported cases allowed for the advancement of a new consolidation period and the relaxation of some restrictions. We hope we can quickly regain normal life," Secretary for Social Affairs and Culture Elsie Ao Ieong U said in a press conference on Wednesday. There was no mention of when casinos would reopen via the Macau Business report. However, sources with direct knowledge of reopening plans told Reuters that casinos "will reopen on Saturday." Macau adopted China''s disastrous COVID Zero strategy of lockdowns and mass testing -- one way to crush the economy.

(Wednesday Market Open) The European Commission (EU) has asked its 27 member nations to reduce their natural gas consumption by 15% between August and March 2023. The announcement turned U.S. equity index futures from positive to negative. Potential Market Movers Russian energy giant Gazprom said it cannot fulfill gas contracts with the EU, which prompted a swift response from the commission. Russia appears to be striking back against EU sanctions by tightening gas exports. The commission said that Russian President Vladimir Putin is “blackmailing” EU members and “using energy as a weapon.” It’s difficult to know how feasible the EU’s move will be as the group of nations are already experiencing energy shortages that have prompted the reopening of old coal plants and new construction on nuclear facilities. Additionally, Europe is experiencing a record heat wave which underscores the urgency of energy issues now and in a few months when the region could face a repeat of last year’s heating struggle.
