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...

For Old Time's Sake, Let's Make it a Blockbuster Night
Between AAPL, AMZN, GOOGL, V, AMGN, and others, tonight is a full slate of blockbuster earnings which could easily add even more whipsaws to the ones we saw in the tape during today's session. I remain hedged inside Market Chess Subscription Services, with a few index shorts balancing out the rather tedious intraday fades and whipping around I...

I Told You: I Ain't Got No Agua
I ain't got no agua , but I might have some other beverages from Mexico. Mexico, using the EWW country ETF as a proxy, below on its daily chart, has taken a backseat to the strength in emerging markets of late. To be sure, a tough-talking Trump has probably not helped the cause either, in terms of throwing cold water on investor sentiment as...

Have a Look at the Arena Before You Step Into the Super Bowl Dome
Arena Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a biotech with about a $1.5 billion market cap, has been consistently exuding relative strength in recent sessions amid a market full of whipsaws. Typically, we would expect a high beta biotech like ARNA to get hit worse than most during market dips or corrections, through no fault of its own since it is, after all,...
