Rollin' Snake Eyes

I reduced long exposure further today, as the market selling we are seeing is much more intense and steady beyond the Facebook news and that stock's weakness. Moreover, the VIX back over 20 as I write this and even the most attractive longs like ANF are not convincing enough to compel me to put on new long inventory at the moment. On the Dow...

The Allure of Playing Hard to Get

With Facebook's stock performing an abrupt about-face from Friday's strength and leading the Nasdaq (and market) lower this morning, it is likely correct to treat lightly on the long side in front of new Fed Chair Powell's first FOMC later this week. Indeed, the major averages are sporting the look and feel of an ongoing consolidation and...

Saturday Night at Market Chess Cinemas

On this Saint Patrick's Day, I am going to recommend one of my favorite Irish films from the last two decades. Each time I have watched it, I have come away thoroughly impressed with The Guard (2011), a comedy-thriller set in a small Irish town. The cast features several of my favorite actors, including Brendan Gleeson, Don Cheadle, and the...

Have Your Guard Up in This Sector

As one of our Members reminded us just now, the large cap biotechnology issues housed in the IBB sector ETF remain at a critical technical juncture. On the updated IBB monthly chart, this long-term view shows us the initial strength in January to kick off 2018 was insufficient to sustain a fresh breakout for bulls. Going forward, it sure looks...

March Madness with a Kiss

It's that time of year, where we can expect to hear plenty of Bill Raftery's classic NCAA basketball sayings as well as the pre-Sell-in-May-and-go-away grace period for equities, which typically have rather bullish seasonality in March and April. That said, the market is moving at a rather pedestrian pace this morning, as I suspect the true...
