I remain very bullish and U.S. stocks have run hard to the upside off the April low with growth stocks leading the way. I expect growth stocks to remain strong throughout the summer months, as they historically do, but we need to recognize that they’ve already seen tremendous upside. Could technology (XLK) names, in particular, use a period of consolidation? Well, if we look at a 5-year weekly chart, the XLK really isn’t that overbought just yet:

The weekly PPO has crossed its centerline and is gaining bullish momentum. The recent price breakout suggests to me that we likely have further to run. And if you look at the weekly RSI, you’ll note that we’ve seen the weekly RSI move well into the 70s and even close to 80 before witnessing a market top or pause. Outside a bit of profit taking, I really don’t see the likelihood of a big selloff here. Keep in mind that the XLK represents 31% of the S&P 500. If the XLK doesn’t slow down, it’s very unlikely that we’ll see any type of meaningful decline in the S&P 500 either.

Growth vs. Value

Growth stocks have historically performed well over the summer months. One way to visualize this is to compare large-cap growth (IWF) to large-cap value (IWD) using a seasonality chart. Check this out:

The average monthly outperformance since 2013 is reflected at the bottom of each month’s column. If you add those numbers for May through August, you get +5.4%. If you add those numbers for the other 8 months combined, you get +0.6%. Clearly, large-cap growth has the tendency to outperform value from May through August. We’re in the growth “sweet spot” right now.

So Should We Lower Our Market Expectations?

I say absolutely not. Yes, we’ve run substantially higher off that April low, but I see more left in the tank. Will we see profit taking from time to time and could we see a period of consolidation? Sure. But I still believe that remaining on the sidelines is a big mistake as plenty of market upside remains. In fact, I see another somewhat forgotten asset class that’s poised to scorch 50% higher or more, possibly over the next 6 months. I’m investing in this area now, as I believe it’s in the early stages of a significant rally, and believe it would be prudent for you to take a look as well.

Stallion Uranium Corp. (the ‘ Company ‘ or ‘ Stallion ‘ ) (TSX-V: STUD ; OTCQB: STLNF ; FSE: FE0) is pleased to report the results from the 3D inversion of ground gravity data over the Coyote Target, located within the Southwestern Athabasca Basin Joint Venture (‘ JV ‘) Project in partnership with Atha Energy Corp. (‘Atha Energy’) (TSX-V: SASK) .

 

‘The inversion modelling at Coyote has delineated a laterally extensive and coherent gravity low, spatially coincident with a structurally complex corridor exhibiting attributes characteristic of fertile uranium-bearing systems within the Athabasca Basin,’ said Matthew Schwab, CEO of Stallion Uranium Corp. ‘The robustness of the geophysical anomaly, in conjunction with the structural and lithological setting, provides compelling evidence supporting Coyote as a high-priority target for drill testing.’

 

  Highlights:  

 

  • 3D gravity inversion completed and interpreted by leading geophysical experts specializing in the Athabasca Basin
  •  

  • Identified multiple gravity-low anomalies along a major conductive corridor
  •  

  • A prominent, coherent gravity-low feature interpreted as a zone of alteration along an interpreted structural corridor
  •  

  • Strong correlation between the gravity anomalies and conductive breaks identified from the MobileMT survey
  •  

The inversion results highlight a gravity-low anomaly commonly associated with significant uranium mineralization systems in the Athabasca Basin. The modelled anomaly defines the low-density feature’s depth extent, shape, and continuity, further supporting the potential for large-scale uranium alteration at Coyote.

 

‘The 3D gravity inversion provides a powerful validation of the overall prospectivity at Coyote,’ said Darren Slugoski, Vice President, Exploration at Stallion Uranium. ‘The inversion highlights a series of at least five compelling targets within an 8.5 km corridor. We are well-positioned to take the next steps toward discovery with a subsequent ground EM survey (currently being interpreted by Convolutions Geoscience) in addition to a focused and systematic drill program.’

 

The inversion results visualize subsurface density variations, with the anomaly’s geometry and intensity suggesting prolonged fluid movement and alteration; critical vectors toward uranium mineralization. The alignment of the gravity-low with previously defined conductive trends and interpreted structural corridors underscores a compelling geological model. The results validate the exploration strategy at Coyote and refine the prioritization of drill targets based on integrated geophysical and structural frameworks.

‘The 3D gravity inversion model at Coyote reveals a well-defined low-density anomaly that is both laterally extensive and vertically continuous,’ said Kyle Patterson, P. Geo., Principal Geophysicist at Convolutions Geoscience, a leading consulting firm specializing in advanced geophysical modelling and geologic integration. ‘This type of geophysical signature is commonly associated with deep-seated structural zones and extensive hydrothermal alteration; both key indicators in targeting basement-hosted uranium deposits in the Athabasca Basin. The spatial correlation with interpreted MobileMT conductors, observed alteration patterns, and interpreted shear zones further support the interpretation that the Coyote project hosts the ideal geological pathfinders for a significant uranium system.’

  About Kyle Patterson:  

 

Kyle Patterson, P. Geo., is the Chief Geophysicist and founder of Convolutions Geoscience, a geophysical consulting firm specializing in advanced modelling and interpretation techniques for mineral exploration. With over 15 years of experience in the industry and a focus on high-resolution geoscientific data integration in the Athabasca Basin, Kyle has worked extensively with uranium explorers to define and refine targets using gravity, magnetics, and EM inversion modelling. His expertise is in interpreting complex structural and alteration systems, bridging geophysics with geological understanding to drive discovery-focused exploration.

 

  Gravity Data Inversion:  

 

Convolutions Geoscience inverted the ground gravity data, utilizing industry-standard 3D inversion techniques to estimate subsurface density variations from the processed gravity data. The objective was to assist in delineating alteration zones of interest for uranium exploration.

 

Convolutions Geoscience carried out a 3D inversion of the gravity data to create a voxel product of subsurface density anomalies using the industry-standard Fullagar Vertical Prism Magnetic and Gravity (VPmg) codes. The inputs into the inversion were the free air anomaly from the dataset; lake bathymetry data for water depth; digital terrain model (DTM) for the project area, in addition to NASA Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) data for surrounding areas; and density constraints for sandstone cover rocks above the unconformity as well as basement rocks below the unconformity. Convolutions created a VPmg gravity inversion using 40m x 40m surface XY blocks and Z blocks of 10m at the surface, increasing by 5% at depth. The total model block depth exceeds 10km.

LONDON/NEW YORK, July 11 (Reuters) – Suppliers to Walmart WMT.N have delayed or put on hold some orders from garment manufacturers in Bangladesh, according to three factory owners and correspondence from a supplier seen by Reuters, as U.S. President Donald Trump’s threat of a 35% tariff on the textile hub disrupts business.

Bangladesh is the third-largest exporter of apparel to the United States, and it relies on the garment sector for 80% of its export earnings and 10% of its GDP. The factory owners all said they expected orders to fall if the August 1 tariffs go into effect, as they are unable to absorb that 35% rate.

Iqbal Hossain, managing director of garment manufacturer Patriot Eco Apparel Ltd, told Reuters an order for nearly 1 million swim shorts for Walmart was put on hold on Thursday due to the tariff threat.

“As we discussed please hold all below Spring season orders we are discussing here due to heavy Tariff % imposed for USA imports,” Faruk Saikat, assistant merchandising manager at Classic Fashion, wrote in an email to Hossain and others seen by Reuters. Classic Fashion is a supplier and buying agent that places orders for retailers.

“As per our management instruction we are holding Bangladesh production for time being and IN case Tariff issues settled then we will continue as we planned here.”

The hold was not decided by Walmart, Saikat told Reuters, but by Classic Fashion itself.

Walmart did not respond to a request for comment.

Bangladesh is currently in talks with the United States in Washington to try to negotiate a lower tariff. Trump in recent days has revived threats of higher levies on numerous nations.

“If the 35% tariff remains for Bangladesh, that will be very tough to sustain, honestly speaking, and there will not be as many orders as we have now,” said Mohiuddin Rubel, managing director at jeans manufacturer Denim Expert Ltd in Dhaka.

Rubel, whose company produces jeans for H&M HMb.ST and other retailers, said he expects clients will ask him to absorb part of the tariff, but added this would not be possible financially. Manufacturers have already absorbed part of the blanket 10% tariff imposed by the U.S. on April 2.

“Only probably the big, big companies can a little bit sustain (tariffs) but not the small and medium companies,” he said.

Retailers have front-loaded orders since Trump returned to the White House, anticipating higher tariffs. Jeans maker Levi’s LEVI.N, which imports from Bangladesh, said on Thursday it has 60% of the inventory it needs for the rest of 2025.

U.S. clothing imports from Bangladesh totaled $3.38 billion in the first five months of 2025, up 21% from the year-earlier period, according to U.S. International Trade Commission data.

Another Dhaka-based garment factory owner said an importer with whom he was negotiating a spring 2026 order of trousers for Walmart asked him on Thursday to wait a week before the order would be confirmed due to the tariff risk.

Hossain said he may look for more orders from European clients to make up for lost orders if the U.S. 35% tariff gets implemented, even if he has to cut prices to stimulate demand.
