They Threw the Baby Out with the Tidewater
Offshore energy play, Tidewater, below on its updated daily chart, is just one of many examples in the energy space of cheap (based on valuation) and clearly out of favor stocks which have been pummeled not only in recent months, but also have been overall dead money (sideways) since the 2015 energy bear market. TDW, itself, has earnings within...

Royalty is Coming to America
After the run the precious metals and miners have had it is completely logical to wait for a lower risk entry on the long side. However, as we know, markets these days, especially, can be anything but logical. With rates spiraling higher again today, here are two reasonably non-extended precious miner-related plays, below, on their respective...

Markets Used to Be Hard-Nosed and Tough
...And they will be again. For now, we have another slow session, as the Nasdaq fades well off the highs despite a massive move up in TSM after earnings. On that note, tonight we have both ISRG and NFLX reporting, respectively below on their quarterly charts. Intuitive Surgical, with its robotic surgical device, trades at around a forward PE...

As Long as the Market is Exuberant, Let's Learn to Love the Bomb
Amazon made waves (no pun intended) this morning with a headline flashing pre-market that the iconic, innovative firm plans to invest $500 million to develop small modular reactors.

I See the Stag and the Flation
"I was around for stagflation, and it was 10% unemployment, it was high-single-digit inflation. Right now we have 3% growth, which is pretty solid growth, I would, say by any measure, and we have inflation running under 3%,” said Powell, who is right about growth if looking at final sales to domestic purchasers, and correct about inflation if...

A Wounded Wolf is Especially Dangerous
As we saw with China plays over the last few weeks there is tons of risk in any and all crowded trades in a bifurcated market coming unglued at the drop of a hat. While I believe that day is coming as far as crowded longs in the Mag7 names, semiconductors, and other assorted plays like CAVA COST PLTR WING, among others, it of course applies to...
