A Bittersweet Time of Year

Depending on where you live and what your attitude is towards the various seasons, this time of year can be rather bittersweet. Here in the northeast, cold weather and shorter days await us. But hurricanes are extremely rare, and compared to tropical climes down south the summers typically are not horrendously hot and humid. So, it is indeed...

Old School Readers Will Know

First and foremost, that Clark Gable photo only comes out once per year, usually on my birthday. But since that is in the rear view mirror, I think me charting a rare "megaphone" pattern on the updated QQQ daily chart, first below, is worthy of a special photo for a special post. For those who have been following my work for over a decade, you...

Basic Glitch

An initial, "basic" glitch this morning sent the indices reversing lower abruptly as the Jackson Hole virtual symposium gets underway. However, looking at the updated IWM (ETF for the small cap-dominated Russell 2000 Index) daily chart, below, we cannot be surprised in the least that smalls ran into some "basic" resistance in the midpoint of...

Slay the Monster Once and for All

We have a bit of a lull, perhaps a "calm before the storm" vibe to the market this morning in front of Jackson Hole kicking off tomorrow, as well as some significant macro data Thursday morning. Equities are generally drifting higher, with small caps leading as the IWM threatens to recapture its 50-day moving average as we speak. DKNG is...

Eleven Time's a Charm?

Since July 22nd, the diagnostics/covid testing play Co-Diagnostics Inc. (CODX) has loosely tested its 200-day moving average either just below it, precisely on it, or peeking its head just above it. In fact, today marks the eleventh of such occurrence, as the stock flipped red-to-green today. CODX has a low float with a relatively high short...

The Only Thing Transitory is Your Growth Slowdown Thesis

One of the most difficult parts about being a market participant is that we must simultaneously learn from the past (both our own trades and previous market cycles, in general) while avoiding fighting yesterday's battles in yesterday's market in the present. Indeed, each market can be unique even if it does indeed rhyme with a cycle from Wall...

The "P" in Pfizer Packs a Silent Punch

I cannot help but think of this scene from Golden Girls when it comes to all things Pfizer. Inside the VIP arm of Market Chess Subscription Services, PFE has been one of the highlights for us as we have concentrated our ideas and plays on value stocks more than anything else in recent quarters. Clearly, I would be delusional not to...
