Bears Lost These to the Summer Wind

Today's trading sessions certainly seems to be sponsored by the summer, what with the drifting, unfocused price action at-large. However, the fact remains that monster winners like SQ PYPL are tipping their hands as to just how strong they truly are, even if they are too extended to chase right here, right now. Beyond that, leaders like TSLA...

It's All About the Benioffs

Summer trading is in full effect today, with the indices meandering slightly above and below the flatline for much of the action thus far. Below the surface, leaders like TSLA are faring well, as dip-buyers have showing confidence to step into weakness. Small caps are giving back some of last week's gains. However, the pullback can best be...

More Musical Chairs

The market appeared to shrug off yet another terrorist attack in England over the weekend via a mixed open among the major averages this morning. Extended and potential new leaders like PYPL and SQ are green as I write this, but the gist of the action is some mild consolidation early on. That said, marquee Nasdaq leaders like FB and GOOGL,...

Saturday Night at Market Chess Cinemas

The Place Beyond the Pines (2012) is a risk-taking crime drama which dares to disappoint the audience in terms of defying conventional Hollywood plot elements and character development. Without giving too much away, director and co-writer Derek Cianfrance should be applauded for his efforts and ambition in this film, even if he errs on...

Housing: Time to Let Bygones Be Bygones

Pursuant to the quotation above, it appears as though the homebuilders and indeed home construction sector at-large may have found something to love more than the bad habit of looking back at the housing bubble and shrugging off the notion of home ownership. And that would be the emerging theme of millennials buying starter homes. To be sure,...

Defeating an Obvious Narrative

The election of Republican Donald Trump as a vocal proponent of the Second Amendment last November seemed to dampen the mood for the firearms plays, namely RGR and AOBC (formerly Smith & Wesson). It seems obvious that RGR and SWHC (AOBC now) had thrived during the Obama years. However, a careful examination of both charts reveals they did...

The Market is Predicting Golden State Will Beat Cleveland in the NBA Finals

While it is true that Nike was one of the more than three-hundred businesses to sign the signed an open letter calling on President Trump and Congress to stay in the Paris climate change accord (which Trump just pulled the U.S. out of today), other factors may be in play regarding NKE's notable underperformance today. On the NKE daily chart,...
