TLI Weekly Analysis — Sep 28 to Oct 5, 2026
Macro Signal
US added only 29,000 jobs in September 2026 — sharp hiring slowdown. TLI flags this as market-moving: jobs slowing → likely Fed rate cuts → supportive for bonds, gold, silver, and equities. Falling yields are the key tailwind.
Top 20 Changes
| Change | Detail | Implication |
|---|---|---|
| SILVER added to Top 20 | Silver officially entered the Top 20 list | Silver is TLI's new preferred metals play — inflation hedge + rate-cut beneficiary |
| $NIO removed | Dropped from Top 20 (not a Sell signal) | Portfolio reshuffle — NIO was already a weak hold |
Key TLI Calls (Oct 5)
| Ticker | Call | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| $EWZ (Brazil ETF) | BUY — Momentum + Income | +11.8% in one day, new high $42.70. Pro-capitalist candidate won Brazil election first round. 3.8% dividend yield. "Safe haven" label. |
| $HSY (Hershey) | Review / potential trim | +3.8% dividend increase but flagged as "long-standing legacy position" — possible review for exit |
| $SE (Sea Limited) | BUY — reiterate | Holding support on the 200-week MA. Still in the buy zone. |
| $MU (Micron) | Watch — Elliot Wave count | Updated Elliot Wave analysis + infographics — watching for a setup |
| $CRM, $BKNG, $NFLX, $ZETA, $SPCX, $COIN, $DASH, $MSTR, $NU, $MELI | Watchlist entries | Individual ticker watchlists — no clear signal yet |
Macro to Watch
- 10-Year US Treasury Yield — TLI flagged as the critical metric this week
- Jobs slowdown → yields falling → generally supportive for long-term growth and dividend stocks
- $EWZ Brazil election — political catalyst driving capital into emerging markets
Actionable For You
- Silver is now TLI's preferred metals play — aligns with your earlier interest in precious metals
- $SE is a buy signal — cross-check against your current portfolio positions
- Falling yields = tailwind for growth/dividend stocks — good for the Dow/KO/JNJ type plays
- $EWZ — strong momentum play if you want international exposure
