Emerging Markets: Another Round or No Mas

We sold a quick YINN (triple-levered long China country ETF) trade into strength yesterday inside the service after writing a blog post last Friday about the prospects for emerging markets to generally stage a relief rally after being pummeled this spring and summer. Still, when a corrective chart becomes quickly overbought, as FXI (YINN is...

You Know Cashish Has Been Legalized Too, Right?

Despite the surge on the major averages into the closing bell yesterday on the EU/Trump news, inside Market Chess Subscription Services I moved to my heaviest trading portfolio cash position in quite some time. Simply put, the broad market is attempting to stave off summer volatility and indeed a correction by continuing to play the rotation...

Here Comes the Heart of the Lineup

An earnings lineup tonight of: $FB $AMD $V $PYPL $F $ALGN $GILD $LVS $QCOM $NOW is as loaded as it gets. Facebook, to be sure, is the premier report. But the other ones listed above could tip the scales in what appears to be the epitome of a mixed market. Although I have raised a very heavy amount of cash the last two sessions, my bias is to...

Is it Safe: Update on Netflix

Much like the other "FANG" market leaders, and even the long-term chart of the Russell 2000 small caps we looked at earlier today, the Netflix chart is such that we still are not too interested in calling major bull marker tops. At the same time, though, we simply cannot be surprised if a chart like NFLX decides to take some time and correct,...

Revisiting the Full, Traditional BREXIT

As the small caps in the Russell 2000 Index flip back to red as I write this, the monthly chart for the IWM ETF provided some interesting long-term perspective. Without questions, small caps have been on a tear since 2016, namely since the BREXIT shakeout. We can see as much on the monthly IWM, below, which I have annotated for you. You will...

The Bear Side Catches a Break

With the glaring small cap weakness deepening this afternoon, plenty of issues in the broad market simply do not reflect the triple-digit rally we are seeing in the Dow Jones Industrial Average. And despite the rotation threats we noted earlier, namely into the energy/materials/emerging market complex, not to mention large cap banks, the...

Just in Time to Catch the End of Summer

Although a majority of the name must wade through the current earnings season, there is no denying that the XME ETF weekly chart, seen below, is threatening to emerge from a consolidation pattern which has been forming since shares put in an intermediate-term top back in late-january. Since then, most of the XME names, which includes steels,...
