Marc Chaikin Income Acceleration Project: Smart Money Event

New York, NY, USA - August 31, 2026 - On September 1, 2026, at 10 a.m. Eastern time, Marc Chaikin will host a free online event titled Chaikin's Income Acceleration Project. The presentation will examine current stock market conditions, the role of institutional trading patterns often called smart money, and the application of Chaikin’s Power Gauge system to income-focused approaches.

Chaikin's Income Acceleration Project: Overview of the Event

The session is designed to explain a method for seeking income from stock market activity that does not depend on dividend stocks, bonds, options trading, or cryptocurrency.

Instead, it applies the Power Gauge system in a targeted way. The Power Gauge is a quantitative tool that evaluates thousands of stocks each trading day. It combines company financial data with technical and volume-based signals to produce clear ratings ranging from very bullish to very bearish.

Marc Chaikin has spent more than five decades working on Wall Street. He developed several indicators that became standard tools for professional investors. After a period of retirement, he founded Chaikin Analytics with the aim of making institutional-style analysis available to individual investors. The Power Gauge is the central product of that effort.

Current Market Conditions

Recent months have featured repeated episodes of sharp price declines followed by rapid recoveries in individual stocks.

Several well-known names have dropped double-digit percentages in a matter of days or weeks, only to rebound by similar or larger amounts shortly afterward. These moves reflect a level of short-term volatility and divergence across stocks and sectors that has not been this pronounced since around 2014.

The market has shown what Chaikin describes as a form of splintering, in which different parts of the market move independently and with greater intensity. Such conditions can create challenges for conventional portfolios while also forming the backdrop for the approach that will be discussed.

Role of Smart Money Signals and the Power Gauge

A key element of the Power Gauge is its attention to money-flow indicators that track buying and selling by larger institutional investors. These patterns are commonly referred to as smart money activity.

One of the best-known tools Chaikin created is the Chaikin Money Flow indicator, which measures whether capital is flowing into or out of a stock on balance. When this information is combined with other fundamental and technical factors, the system generates a single overall rating.

Chaikin's Income Acceleration Project applies this framework to the specific goal of identifying opportunities that may generate cash on relatively short time frames, often measured in weeks rather than years. The method seeks to work with the market’s current pattern of rapid swings rather than against it. The September 1 presentation will outline how the system is used for this purpose and what participants can expect from the process.

Topics to Be Covered on September 1

The live event will address several concrete points:

• An income-related approach that Chaikin states has not been widely presented in this form.
• How the recent sequence of steep declines and quick recoveries can be examined through the Power Gauge.
• The significance of the current market splintering and why it may create a useful window for the method.
• One free recommendation intended to illustrate the approach in practice.

The discussion will also place the strategy in the context of broader economic pressures.

Grocery prices have risen about 30 percent since 2020. Electricity costs have increased by roughly 41 percent over a similar period. Other household expenses, including insurance and health care, have also moved higher.

These increases can strain budgets, particularly for people who are retired or approaching retirement. Traditional sources of portfolio income, such as dividends and bond interest, have faced their own difficulties in recent years, including periods of declining principal values when interest rates rose.

Background on Marc Chaikin

Marc Chaikin began his career as a stockbroker in the mid-1960s. He later headed an options department, traded futures, and developed proprietary indicators that gained wide use. The Chaikin Money Flow remains a standard measure of institutional activity on many professional platforms. After retiring, Chaikin returned to the industry to build tools that ordinary investors could use without the resources of a large firm. The Power Gauge was the result of that work. It systematically reviews approximately 20 factors each trading day and produces a straightforward rating that can be applied across a broad universe of stocks.

The Income Acceleration Project represents a focused application of the same system rather than a replacement for it. The September 1 event marks the first time Chaikin has presented this particular initiative in a public online format.

Event Details & Registration

The presentation is free of charge. Interested individuals register by submitting an email address through the official channels associated with the event. After registration, they receive access information for the live broadcast and any reminders. The session begins at 10 a.m. Eastern time on September 1, 2026. Preparatory materials may be distributed in the days leading up to the event.

Context and Timing

Markets do not remain in any single pattern indefinitely. The combination of elevated short-term volatility, divergence across sectors, and ongoing themes such as artificial intelligence has produced a distinct set of conditions.

The September 1 talk will explain why these conditions are relevant to an income-oriented approach that draws on institutional money-flow data. It will also note that some investors have experienced significant losses by concentrating heavily in high-growth stocks without a systematic framework. The discussion will contrast those outcomes with a method that prioritizes the generation of cash flow on shorter cycles.

Closing Information

Chaikin's Income Acceleration Project will be presented live on September 1, 2026, at 10 a.m. Eastern time. The event is free and open to the public. It will cover recent market swings, the function of smart money indicators, the Power Gauge system, and one free recommendation offered for illustration.
