The 3 contrarian trades I just dropped on Schwab (hint: they're all bearish)

Just wrapped my segment on Schwab's Big 3 and something is seriously broken in this market.

Here's what should terrify you: 70 stocks in the S&P 100 are trading higher today. Yet the S&P is down.

That's not rotation. That's panic.

Fund managers can't put money into the mega-cap tech that carried markets for two years. So what are they doing instead?

Panic-buying random industrial names. Avoiding bonds entirely. Creating what I call "manic rotations" - capital being forced into places not because of opportunity, but because of desperation.

This dysfunction is creating three massive contrarian opportunities I just shared on Schwab:

The "overcooked turkey" play - One industrial giant up 24% year-to-date on pure forced flows. When fundamentals don't support the move, the snapback can be brutal.

The "safe haven that isn't" trade - For the first time in history, bonds aren't catching flight-to-safety money. I'm betting against that dysfunction.

The "mother of all rotation plays" - One energy name exploded 19% year-to-date on desperation buying. Time to fade the madness.

These aren't your typical trades. These are tactical positions for when markets completely lose their minds and traditional correlations break down.
