Private Pyle! Why is Your Foot Locker Unlocked?

Retail stocks have, at various intervals in recent quarters, dishonored the platoon of consumer stocks. Those retail names notably lagged amid a plethora of calls for them to go the way of horse buggy whips, seeing as Amazon was effectively rendering them irrelevant. As those AMZN-is-eating-the-retail-world-whole proclamations reached a high...

Chickens Coming Home to Roost for Turkey Day

As attractive as some energy and materials stocks have looked, and as strongly as some have been acting, the U.S. Dollar ETF's monthly timeframe, below, is a lingering threat becoming more serious by the way as rates inch higher along with the greenback.

Give Me Back My Precious

It looks as though the Dollar strength is finally starting to catch up to at least some parts of the commodity and mining complex. Steels seem unfazed, as is FCX, but gold miners failed to remain $22 on the GDX effectively and are now at risk of a bear flag breakdown.

Water Traps

Just a perfectly normal 200-day moving average (yellow line, arrows) test by price for Dryships this week, I see. Along with solar, and you can see further FSLR damage today, shippers are likely not worth the trouble for anything more than a quick scalp, at least not yet and not until they saw better overall technical action on longer-term...

Winklevii Revenge

Seeing as Facebook is flattish again this morning and continues to flash signs of "distribution," or heavy selling my institutions of size after a strong bull run, it is worth revisiting the chart to see if this is truly a good leader gone bad. Even as other Nasdaq names are bouncing this morning, FB is struggling to reclaim its 200-day moving...
