Regeneron Trying to Regenerate a Good Chart

In addition to some of the more by-the-book sound biotechnology charts, like CELG and the BIVV blog post yesterday, which are on the the long radar here, we also want to be on the lookout for potential bottoming charts from laggards, too. After a breathtaking multi-year rally, from 2010-2015, Regeneron degenerated into a longtime laggard among...

Crude, Where's My Support Car?

Some gnarly crude oil weakness (USO daily, below) appears to have finally stressed out the senior indices a bit today, even as QQQ is still green as I write this into the bell. The small cap ETF also sliced its 50-day moving average, which saw me lightening up long inventory. Overall, while it is not across-the-board bearish action, it is...

Caution! You Have Entered the Spinoff Zone

In addition to tracking the steady but impressive progress of JCI spinoff and auto parts play, ADNT, in recent weeks, we also want to keep tabs on BIVV, equally impressive spinoff from large cap biotech, BIIB. Spinoffs tend to not be surrounded by as much hoopla as, say, the likes of Snapchat. But you may be doing yourself a disservice by...

No MSG, Please

High beta China internet plays are notoriously higher risk endeavors for traders, as they are more prone to violent reversals and, in some extreme cases, immediate delisting out of the blue as it is exposed that the companies were actually shells based out of a basement in Staten Island. Extreme cases aside, we saw the ghosts of high beta...

Watching FANG, and FANG, Closely

We have another slow trading day of consolidation on the major averages playing out, with a bit of a lull perhaps before a jobs number on Friday morning and another big FOMC next week. As long as the indices remain shallow in their consolidations, it is instructive to keep a close eye on the "FANG" leaders in the Nasdaq, an acronym for FB AMZN...

Homey Action in This Sector

The homebuilders are back at it again this morning, thanks to a spike higher in LGIH after earnings. LGIH was actually one of the worst charts in the sector headed into today. But a 17% gap higher sure does ease the pain for longs. Regarding the premier homies, DHI is still one of the leaders which continues to act well. On the updated daily...
