Bull trap for $Invesco QQQ Trust(QQQ)$  ‌?




I think it is easy to explain the bull rally with interest rates at 0%. But how to explain the "rally" when effective interest rate is at 4.5% and still looking to increase further? There are a lot of "expectations" in the market that FED will ease or even cut interest rates by end of this year. However your guess is as good as mine. Though we will soon know the "truth" soon. 


What I feel is no matter the announcement, market will drop because this rally doesn't have enough "fuel" and there is still a lot of nervousness in the market. I am pretty sure everyone is still feeling the pinch from the rise of their mortgages, higher rental cost & daily expenses are on the rise too. So who is really fueling this rally other than the market makers who are also the ones talking up the market?  


I could be wrong, afterall, why fight the trend? But whatever the case, it is better to be careful in this market and not risk what you cannot lose. If you are uncertain about the market like me, then don't touch it till you get a better picture. If this is a bull trap, FOMO is the last thing u want to do! Good luck guys! Cheers!

    Light volume on QQQ today = Dumb money herd following retail investors were the only one's buying. The big institutions and hedge funds thank you for buying what they were offloading today.

    Wish it would just drop to the bottom so I’d feel comfortable going long. Right now with inflation at 6% annualized I have big concern for rate hikes.

    People are getting jobs, while wages are held steady. The market rally should go on, will close green.

    We are heading to retest the October 2022 lows. It will take few weeks but the market is clearly heading that way.
