A Bull Market in Broscience

Ironically, Muscle Maker, Inc. (GRIL) trades small (low-priced, and less than $19 million market cap) and thin (light average daily volume), standing in stark contract to its many patrons who would love nothing more than to bulk up with "gainz," adhering to the philosophy of "broscience."

Here's Why You Actually Should Get High on Your Own Supply

United Natural Foods, Inc. (UNFI), below on its updated daily chart, is another one of several virus-related names which do not seem to be going away. Typically, with such an obvious, headline-driven event or cycle, as we are in, the related stocks on a direct and indirect level will sprint early on in the cycle and then essentially peter out...

Do You Remember That TV Series, "Weeds"?

Yeah, about that: Pretty good show, good cast and well-done comedy. As you may know, the series centered around the marijuana growing end of the business and all that entails on a micro level.

Retrofit This Market to the Olden Days

Netflix is down by more than 7% as I write this after its earnings miss last evening, and shares of Amazon continue to lag the broad market as it has essentially done throughout this week. As two members of the glorious "FANG" leadership acronym, one would think that AMZN NFLX's weakness would be the impetus for a sharp market selloff. Instead,...
