A Laughing Matter No More

The hit reality television shows, "Pawn Stars," and "Hardcore Pawn," may be more nostalgic than anything else at this point beyond their heyday, but the actual owner of the largest pawn store chain in North American, EZPW, may just be getting started.

The Wind That Shakes the Barley, and Growth

[ The Wind That Shakes the Barley , a fine 2006 Irish film about the Irish War of Independence (1919–1921) and the Irish Civil War (1922–1923)]. In front of a highly anticipated FOMC later today we are seeing a pretty good example in this morning's tape of how sensitive growth stocks have become to the movement in rates on the 10-Year Note....

The Rapacious Twenties Cometh

Some late-day buying in bonds is helping to stave off a bit of selling momentum which gathered across the board earlier this afternoon. Once again, this sort of price action still figures to be digestion and backing and filling in front of tomorrow's FOMC, where we will see whether Fed Chair Powell can say the right things to assuage bond...

Nasdaq and the Rest is Coasting

After a few days of great stock-picking action amid mixed and drifting indices at various times, we were certainly due for a morning like this. The QQQ, ETF for the top 100 stocks in the Nasdaq Composite Index, is dominating the tape even as there is plenty of underlying red and lethargic price action thus far.

Smokin' Dope and Betting Sports at the Bucket Shop, Yasee?

It almost feels wrong to be without exposure to either sports betting or cannabis stocks (or both), given the inevitable money which will find its way to these sectors on the back of the latest stimulus checks, not to mention the general "Hey, it's spring after a long winter and a stressful pandemic, let's have fun and spend!" vibe which also...

With uranium gaining traction more and more as an acceptable clean energy alternative given its domestic, abundant, and efficient nature, the fact that UUUU is an emerging...

Let's Just Call Him, "Richard's Sporting Goods"

Come to think of it, maybe we should say, "Richer Sporting Goods." With all of the pent-up demand from kids brimming with cabin fever across the country (not to mention the parents, too) after a year of pandemic-related cancellations of sporting events, among other things, I suspect DICK'S Sporting Goods, Inc. (DKS) is in prime position to...
