Air show takes measures to cope with hot weather
Measures are in place to help people stay safe at an air show as temperatures are forecast to soar over the weekend. The Duxford Summer Air Show takes place on Saturday and Sunday and about 32,000 people are expected to attend. Cambridgeshire and the East of England are under an amber heat health alert from 19 June at 12:00 BST until 23 June at 09:00 - the second-highest warning level. The Imperial War Museum (IWM) said emails had been sent to registered visitors warning them of the weather situation, and added free water points would be available. Highlights of this year's show include the Battle of Britain Memorial Lancaster, Spitfire and Hurricane Flight, the C47 Dakota, RAF Falcons Display Team, and the Red Arrows on Sunday. Entertainment is also planned at ground level, including living history groups, live music, and a range of food and drink. Issuing its amber alert for the whole of England, the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) said "significant impacts" were likely for health and social care services, including increased demand. Temperatures were predicted to reach 33C in parts of the south and east, including Cambridge. With its wide open spaces and thousands expected at the air show, staff at the IWM said measures were in place to mitigate the effects of the hot weather. Emails had been sent to visitors to make them aware of the forecast and urging them and to bring appropriate items including protective sun cream, hats and water. Regular announcements will be made on the PA system to remind people to wear sunscreen and drink water and both items will be on sale at the event as well as free water points. A spokeswoman said: "Our partners in the NHS and St John have been keeping us updated on their plans, and they are prepared for the hot weather. "Our indoor hangars and exhibitions also provide shaded spaces throughout the site." Follow Cambridgeshire news on BBC Sounds, Facebook, Instagram and X.

Strategist is 'cautious' about adding risk around market growth
The S&P 500 (^GSPC) is back and holding above 6,000 for the first time since falling off of February's record highs. Wall Street has turned more bullish on equities (^DJI, ^IXIC, ^GSPC) as firms are raising their year-end targets on the S&P 500. Chief Strategist Michele Schneider shares her risk outlook as key sectors struggle to return to 2021 highs, also taking a look at indexes' moving averages. To watch more expert insights and analysis on the latest market action, check out more Morning Brief here. It's time now for today's strategy session as investors await key catalyst for stock gains Wall Street is bullish. Analysts of Barclays and JP Morgan both calling for more gains ahead. So how much upside is there? Joining us now, Michelle Schneider, Chief Strategist. Michelle, it's great to have you on this morning. Talk to me about what you are for seeing when it comes to how much more room to run the market has without a clear key catalyst in sight. Well, certainly, the the milestone of 6,000 is something that everybody's excited about, and we can see that the SPYs and the Qs are really close to their all-time highs. So that's when I like to watch what I call the inside sectors, actually a phrase coined by Stanley Druckenmiller. And that would be the retail, the transportation, and the small caps. And they have a lot of catching up to do. Currently, if we're looking at IWM, the high was 224. It's trading around 214, not so bad. Transportation though, really lagging behind that and interestingly enough, although retail has been leading lately in those inside sectors, it's still almost 30% away from its all-time high that was made in 2021. So so there's a couple of things to be aware of and that is it's great to see the growth stocks go and we've seen this over and over and over again. But we really need to see things that will actually stimulate the economy participate, and of course, that would be manufacturing, most importantly, the consumer, and then how robust goods and services are moving. And we're not seeing that yet. So I'm cautious here in terms of adding risk. You know, one of my favorite technicals to track is a very simple one, and it's just the moving averages here, especially trying to get a gauge of the 200-day moving averages versus the 50-day moving averages that we're seeing. And as of right now, on the 200 day, this market is relatively split in terms of the companies that are trading above or below. It's almost 50/50. But the 50-day moving average, a little bit more weighted to trading above that. I wonder from a technical analysis perspective, what your key technical indicator is that you're watching right now to really get a gauge of where spirits are transpiring and sentiment within the market. Well, first of all, I love moving averages, and I love the 50 and the 200. So let's just broaden out that time frame a bit and go to the weekly moving averages. And that's really where I think is most interesting right now. So for example, semiconductors, they're back over their 50-week moving average and the 50 is above the 200, which is also important. You want that positioning to show more of a bullish edge and it is. The same thing with retail. It got over its 50 week. That's really encouraging. So I'm certainly not trying to be negative. I'm just trying to look out. And then if you look at the small caps, they're below the 50 week. If you look at transportation, it's below the 50 week and regional banks are sitting right on it and I like to look at the regionals as opposed to the actual big banks, and I know you mentioned the financials in the beginning. So, and biotech, by the way, is just under everything. So that has a lot to do to prove that it can come back. That's what I'm looking at because from a weekly standpoint, we need to get those things back into these bullish weekly phases and we're halfway there. Sign in to access your portfolio

Macro strategist explains why it's a good time to own Russell 2000
-- In a note to clients on Monday, Evercore ISI analysts argued that despite recent struggles, "universally unloved Small Caps" are now in a "So Bad, It's Good" tactical position, making it an opportune time to buy the Russell 2000. Small Caps have been particularly impacted by tariffs and uncertainty, suffering as "Price Takers, not Price Makers," said Evercore. They note that the year-to-date performance through May ranks among the weakest since 1990, extending an underperformance streak approaching Dotcom troughs. However, Evercore ISI suggests that with trade uncertainty potentially peaking, the current "cratered sentiment intersects with favorable June seasonality." They explain that historically, the "Small Size reliably outperforms" in June, coinciding with the annual Russell Index Rebalance. This trend is expected to be amplified in 2025, given strong historical reversion in years with similarly weak year-to-date Size factor returns. Beyond this tactical opportunity, the longer-term case for Small Cap outperformance rests on "attractive valuation vs. Large Cap," a "cutting Fed," and "potential Policy (Trade/BBB legislation) catalysts." Evercore ISI recommends buying IWM (iShares Russell 2000 ETF) for broad exposure. Additionally, they screen for "Small Size, Big Alpha" stocks – Russell 2000 companies exhibiting "Strong Sentiment and High Profitability." They also suggest pairing these investments with "Set It and Forget It" SPY Option Hedges ahead of potential summer volatility. The analysts note that a recent rally in stocks following Trump-Xi talks and a solid Jobs report has eased earlier concerns. 'With SPX at 23x 2025e EPS, selectivity (positioning, options hedges) is key,' concludes Evercore.
