The Dow is 420 Friendly Nowadays

The early weakness in the small caps is now looking like a trap to lure in overzealous shorts with an itchy trigger finger, the indices quickly regrouped and are now surging into the heart of the afternoon session. While I did not rush in and short this morning, I have been extra selective in terms of adding back long exposure. My reasoning...

A Different View of a Popular Destination

More than anything else, the supposed new era of markets where computers front-run the "old ways" of traders doing things has ingrained a certain behavior into market players which sees them assuming that any slight undercut of a well-defined, prior support area must be a great buying opportunity. This idea fits neatly alongside the notion of...

Saturday Night at Market Chess Cinemas

Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017) received critical acclaim upon its release, and has since been nominated for and won several awards.  Unfortunately, I do not share the view that this is an exceptional film, nor a particularly good one.   Instead, I believe that too many critics and viewers simply gave the benefit of the...

Cold, Hard, American 100% C(r)ash

During the late-morning swoon spilling over into the early-afternon portion of the session, I decided to close out my swing shorts and move to 100% cash in my trading account inside Market Chess Subscription Services.  To be sure, a loose and sloppy close today would draw analogies to the crash of 1987, in terms of the weakness leading up to...

A Shady Throwback

Although FEYE and NVDA are two bright spots for bulls on the earnings front today, with both names gapping higher this morning, the broad market bounce attempt has yet to make much of a dent vis-à-vis yesterday's 1,000-point plunge on the Dow.  To be sure, an afternoon squeeze may gather steam if bears are unable to overturn the rally and...

Welcome to the Big Leagues, Jerome Powell

With the next Federal Open Market Committee meeting not scheduled until late-March, new Fed Chair Jerome Powell is already facing markets doing what they have done for decades: Put new Fed Chairs to the test right off the bat. And the fact that we still have just under two months before that meeting means the recent volatility may not...

And Then There was the Yen...

With the various headlines in recent days, weeks, months, even years, I am sure we all forgot about the Japanese Yen currency as issues in Japan seems to fall into the background.  Nonetheless, when the Yen rallies strongly it tends to bode poorly for global risk appetite, especially equities, as it signifies "risk off" for a variety of...

A Dim Sum Morning

Much like dum sum in Chinatown on a weekend morning, the market this morning has something for everyone on which to nibble. On the one hand, we have a name like TWTR (following-up on SNAP yesterday) smashing earnings and continuing its long-term turnaround for the better. GRUB is equally as impressive, acting more and more like an emerging...
