Sorry I Ruined Your Tesla Party
With TSLA and NVDA still putting the hurt on shorts deep into the afternoon portion of today's session, the QQQ ETF is up by more than 1.25% as I write this. As that melt-up continues, there are a few underlying developments regarding rotations, however: The tape is back to being concerned about the "re-opening plays," as airlines, cruise...

Down Days for the Nasdaq Belong on the Oldies Station
NVIDIA, the high growth chip play, in front of earnings later this week (Wednesday after the bell), and Tesla, in front of effecting its stock split by the end of this month, are surging this morning and dragging the Nasdaq higher yet as I write this. Typically, a stock split is one of the more neutral developments you will see on Wall...

There's Nothing Natural About It
We have been operating in a market where many leading stocks and various other issues have been acting increasingly "tired" of late. However, as bears can attest, the elusive giveback for anything more than a momentary blip to red, perhaps, on the Nasdaq has been met with instantaneous dip-buying as it seems like a one-way rally is destined to...

Ducking Out Early Today
I turn 40 years old today, so I am going to duck out of here early. 40 years of age is a life milestone which I do not take for granted, as I have known more than a few people over the years who will never get to enjoy this privilege. As for markets, the seemingly endless QQQ drift higher this summer remains intact. And that will likely...

Epic Summer Drift Upstream
Large cap tech continue to dominate again this morning, as the seemingly endless drift upstream in the QQQ ETF galvanizes bulls in names like AAPL AMZN FB TSLA, even SPCE after its recent pullback. While the move higher in rates (read: lower TLT) this week is likely to have ramifications going forward if it persists, the U.S. Dollar dipping red...

Extensive Testing
Various virus-related plays are getting crushed this morning, namely CODX INO NVAX, even the online schooling and curricula play, LRN. Thus, with the major indices snapping back higher off yesterday's weakness, the issue is whether we should be onboard with the market's implication today that the economy is, in fact, on the cusp of a...

U-V-X-Y: You Ain't Got No Alibi!
With political gamesmanship and posturing taking hold in D.C. surrounding the latest round of Stimulus measures for Americans, markets are limping towards the closing bell today as this morning's Russia vaccine play fades under the scrutiny of its veracity. One gets the sense that a sleepy summer VIX is ripe to wake up from what has been...

Vaccines of the World Unite! All You Have to Lose is Your Efficacy
Despite a fair amount of understandable skepticism greeting news this morning of Russian approval for a Coronavirus vaccine, futures reacted sharply especially in the Dow and small cap-led Russell. As it stands now, coming up on ninety minutes into the cash session, the same dynamic of the mega cap value names in the Dow (BA CAT JPM, to name...
