Sneaky Retail Smarts on The Street
With the recent mechanical and liquidity issues the market has experienced during this correction, an initial thought would be that the retail stocks would quickly relinquish a chunk or all of the relief rally the sector has enjoyed of late, rallying after quarters of end of largely getting pummeled. After all, plenty of retail firms still have...

Fully Hedged and Full of Bovine Scatology
General Norman Schwarzkopf, pictured above, once scoffed at a report critical of him during the first Gulf War as, "...bovine scatology." When we look at what has happened with the deeply-flawed volatility (VIX)-related ETFs and ETNs over the last eighteen hours or so, namely SVXY and XIV, something else stinks to high heaven. On the one hand,...

He Ain't Pretty No More
The market action of late reminds me of the LaMotta vs Janiro fight immortalized below in Raging Bull (1980)--A pretty, successful fighter with the world as his oyster, in Janiro, eventually runs into something more ferocious and violent than he could have ever imagined.

It's Not a Real Correction Until Amazon Loses a Battle
The early bounce attempt in the broad market was aggressively stuffed by sellers, as the Dow was off by well over 400 points this afternoon. While it is obvious that most indices are now short-term oversold, it is worth remembering that just as the market seemed like a one-way freight train on the way up, it need not obey the seemingly logical...

Scavengers in the Early Weakness
After a fairly sizable thrust lower to follow-up Friday's steep selloff, the Nasdaq is now green I as write this while the rest of the tape fights back. This initial dip-buy attempt should give us some good insight as to what type of market beast we are dealing with, in terms of the sustainability of the reversal--A completely giveback of the...

Saturday Night at Market Chess Cinemas
After the first truly rocky week in the market in a good while, I am sure many will appreciate a classic, all-American comedy starring Rodney Dangerfield. Back to School (1986) also features many familiar faces, such as Burt Young, Ned Beatty, Sam Kinison, and Robert Downey, Jr.. The plot centers around an uneducated, self-made millionaire...

It's Adult Swim Now, Act Accordingly
Friday, September 8th, 2017, was the last time that the Dow Jones Industrial Average tested its 50-day simple moving average. You might want to let that sink in for a moment, since we know that bull markets can go on for over a year at times without a given index chart testing its 200-day moving average. However, the 50-day is much more of an...
