Cathie Wood's $ARKK: Risk of Reflexivity

Into the bell, there are many topics to discuss tonight with Members in my full video recap. However, a main takeaway, of course, centers around the growth selloff. In particular, I would use extreme care in bottom-fishing ARKK and all of Cathie Wood's holdings here--ARKK is below its 200-day moving average (below, yellow line on daily chart)...

We Are All Probably Overlooking Platinum

A brutal open for tech, namely ARKK and TSLA, among many, many other high beta growth stocks, is clearly spoiling Monday morning for many traders. Materials and energy have select strength, alongside the continued melt-ups in banks and homebuilders which are helping the Dow and S&P stay either green or only slight down to mask the Nasdaq...

Asymmetrical Risk

Big, bad, $50 billion-plus market cap Newmont Corporation, a gold miner which has been unable to hold over the $70 handle since before the 1987 crash, is back up to the scene of prior crimes and threatening to overtake it again after dipping (more benignly, as you can see relative to prior times) since last summer. Does it look like it will...

Solar Should Be Good for a Tradable Bounce

After roughly a 60% (!) drawdown since January, I will take my chances with the domestic solar, Sunrun (below on its weekly chart) into next week for a sector relief rally. You are talking about a reversal candle in the works on this weekly chart directly at prior support since last summer. Th entire solar sector has pretty much been whacked....

Money Where My Mouth Is: Gold is Off to the Races

Call me old-fashioned (and many do), but I believe that making a "big call" ought to be an exceedingly rare event in finance. Of course, in this day and age of social media and finance intersecting amid the 24/7 content/news barrage you often see big calls literally around the clock. And when everyone is constantly making big calls, it almost...

Uranium: The Bipartisan Issue to Keep Civilization Afloat

As we head towards summer driving season amid various re-openings and easing of restrictions as more and more Americans suffer from cabin fever, the potential for $4, even $5, per gallon gasoline is becoming increasingly realistic. If so, amid rising food, lumber, copper, and home prices, you can be sure that inflation fears will grow rapidly...

Remember This: The Market is Not the Economy

It remains quite easy to become distracted these days, be it the persistent run-up in some cryptos and the general swirling headlines related to politics, inflation, the economy, summer, and the like. But, to me, the wobbling Nasdaq leaders are to be taken seriously, especially as they are now moving lower and apparently dragging the small caps...
