Sunday Matinée at Market Chess Cinemas

Unforgiven (1992) is arguably the best anti-violence film ever made; ironic since on the surface it appears to be a rather violent film. In light of the mass shooting overnight in Orlando, I am going to pick Unforgiven again, in case you still have not seen it. Directed by and starring Clint Eastwood, along with great performances from...

The Greenback is Still Hanging on, and That Makes Things Messy

Around the same time the U.S. Dollar ETF, UUP, made it clear it would not relinquish its opening gains this morning after the first hour of trading or so, gold miners faded to red virtually across the board. Moreover, equities as a whole are coming in and at sessions lows as I write this, while UUP pushes session highs. Now, the inverse...

Many of them are heavily-shorted and capable of explosive...

So is it Fair to Say That Today's Market was a Buffer?

Yeah, this market sure has a lot of a buffer/consolidation days, seemingly an in-between from the high energy "up" days and the benign grinding days. No real downside energy yet, though, from bears. More in my recap after the bell.

Natural Gas: This, Too, Shall Pass

After the natural gas inventory report this morning, natty is continuing the surge it has enjoyed dating back the last few weeks. We know natty has been a tough cookie to bottom-call since 2008, seemingly mired in a bear market with no expiration date. However, markets are markets. And this bear, too, shall pass. On the updated UNG (ETF for...

It's a Wix on, Wix off Market

Amid a soft open for the indices and crude oil, select plays beneath the surface continue to act well. To be sure, this seems like the type of tape where one needs to ferret out hidden gems, truly putting in the work beyond causally glancing at the indices and some widely-known marquee stocks.
