UFC Sells for $4 Billion, and Here Comes...

Those of you who followed my work over the years know I entered WWE long in August 2012 and was fortunate to sell in March 2014. I have since largely ignored WWE, as the chart needed a good deal of time to reset. However, in light of the UFC buyout today, looking at the WWE monthly below I am becoming intrigued again.

Shorts Get Black and Blue Steak, Even if They Didn't Order It

This type of market action will surely leave a few bruises on undisciplined shorts, who did not have have the humility to quickly fold their hands last week when they market gave most indications of just how truly resilient it was.

A Willie Mays Hayes Market

Bulls certainly deserve credit for style points, in terms of the multiple shakeouts we have seen, heretofore, in a seemingly endless range on the indices for years. And, yet, the S&P 500 Index is within a tick or two of all-time highs from last summer as I write this. Beyond that, an perhaps of more significance, we have an increasing amount...

Betting Top Two Pair

Regarding equities traded in America, both JOY and TCK are a pair of the top components in the KOL ETF. Most people regard KOL as the exclusive "coal" sector ETF, but the holdings are actually much more diverse. And when we consider the JOY and TCK charts, this top two pair has undertaken a great task in healing multi-year downtrends, steady...

These Stocks Can Take a Punch

The same may very well be said for the market at-large, but when we look below the surface for fresh money long ideas into this morning's gap higher it is worth focusing on individual issues which can roaring back from the Brexit shock two weeks ago.
