Bezos Goes the Way of Pesos

The theme of this week across many markets has been rotation. And while the temptation may be to assign a political reason for all of the moves, in reality the price action in the bond market (which was already on this trajectory long before Trump's victory) may carry more significance than politics. In other words, the true battle going...

Taxation Without Carbonation!

In addition to the sudden headwind of higher rates and an unwinding of the "yield-seeking safety trade," one of our Members noted the major soft drink beverage firms are also looking at a flurry of Soda Taxes passed around America on Election Day.  Several weeks back, we noted that the daily charts for TLT (Treasuries) and XLP (consumer staples...

Back to Russia

It has surely been an exhilarating eighteen hour or so for markets, with plenty of market players merely trying to process some of the most violent price swings imaginable is a short period of time. Regarding equities, it appeared to be a day of rotation. "FANG" stocks are mostly red, while biotechs received strong inflows. Banks and the rates'...

Still the Most Important Long-Term Chart

Although there are plenty of headlines covering up the price action in the bond market, it should not be lost on us that Treasuries are acting more and more as though they have arrived at a meaningful inflection point. Not only has TLT failed to sustain a bounce from recent oversold conditions, but the accompanying rate-sensitive sectors in...

Omarosa: If You Were Me, Who Would You Fire?

On the back of the surprise Trump victory, we are seeing a game of musical chairs below the market's surface. Ironically, it is reminiscent of a boardroom scene from "The Apprentice," in terms of discerning the winners and losers.  Firearms plays like RGR and SWHC are being sold aggressively, as are solar plays.  But banks, steels, and biotechs...

A Full, Traditional English Brexit or a Continental Breakfast?

By the time we wake up tomorrow, we should have a full grasp as to whether markets are headed towards a Brexit-style swoon after tonight's election, or instead an understated continental breakfast.  On some level, with Brexit only a few months removed, it is hard to see markets really swooning the way in which we did back then. But that need...

A Premium Placed on Price

Beyond leaders like PCLN rallying sharply after earnings today, another idea is to scout out potential new leaders in their own specific industry.  As an example, Planet Fitness prices gym memberships usually far below completion. And with health insurance premiums in the news across the country for rising sharply, Americans may very well save...

Another Copper!

To follow-up on yesterday's note about the recent strength in copper and its potential to become much more relevant again, both the copper metal and copper miners like FCX are surging again today.  Freeport, a premier copper miner, is clearing multi-month resistance here which, once again, smacks of something beyond a mere short squeeze to keep...
