Tony the Gluten Tiger is Played Out

Consistent with the recent theme of "safety" sectors unwinding amid higher rates, Kellogg Company looks ripe for further downside. Barring a buyout by a larger food company, the daily chart for K, below, has been bouncing poorly since its latest downdraft last week. Given the continued relative weakness in the defensive sectors, it is likely...

A Good Combo

Both natural gas and the refiners are coming on nicely today. After the natty inventory report this morning, the UNG ETF is inching up to the key $8.60-$8.70 area, seen below on the updated daily chart. Also note refiners TSO VLO are coming on a bit, too. WNR and DK are also firm. Both natty and the refiners make for an interesting...

Gold Miners Set Up for a Memorable Trap from These Heights

It seems like an eternity ago, but in the summer of 2009, several months after stocks had bottomed for good after an epic bear market, the S&P 500 was triggering an apparent and ominous head and shoulders daily chart top. Since then, head and shoulders patterns have failed plenty of times, as is the norm in any bull run but especially in this...

More Like Wells "Fargo," Am I Right?

Organized Chaos

Stocks are still sporting a mild bounce into the early-afternoon portion of the session. It sure seems obvious that the S&P 500 is forming a double-bottom, seen the 30-minute chart of the SPY, below. However, the concern would be that it may be too obvious, with too many eyeballs on it and not enough traders positioned for further downside. So...

Formulate a Battle Plan for This Sector

Bulls still have more work to do to prove that equities have, by and large, concluded their recent pullback. 2120 on the S&P 500 Index is now a fairly obvious level of support which held, once again, this morning off an initial fade. As I write this, I see we are gaining steam to the upside but having some initial issues at 2140. Crude oil is...
