Pause?! You're Talking Pause?
The consensus among economists on The Street headed into next week's FOMC is now that The Fed will pause its rate hiking regime and see how things shake out, hoping for the best of a "soft landing." Meanwhile, back in the real world, gasoline prices have gone virtually straight up since the beginning of May (see UGA daily chart, below, the ETF...

Bears Are Taking Their Summer Shots Here
It is still, for the most part, a week of consolidation so far on the major averages in front of what I expect to be a more action-packed week next week (CPI, FOMC, OpEx, etc.). In the meantime, do not overlook the following three Dow components' weakness, DIS NKE TRV, as all three, on their respective daily chart, below, are currently bear...

Wildfires and Rate Hikes, Eh?
Not only do we have the 2023 Central Canada wildfires making headlines this week, as the smoke and smog make their way down to even where I am in northern New Jersey by New York City, but we also have the Bank of Canada resuming rate hikes after a prior pause. In fact, rates in Canada just hit a 22-year high after that four month pause from...

The Final Stage of Bifurcation
Small caps, China names, regional banks, biotechs, and especially retail stocks (the latter, below, on the XRT sector ETF daily chart) are all leading the action higher so far today amid flattish action on the senior indices. What those leading groups today have in common, of course, is that they have been glaring laggards for a good while now...

An Apple Event a Day Keeps Reality Away
We have WWDC kicking off today, and shares of AAPL are in focus again and grabbing most of the headlines, even amid the OPEC cut and oil trying to get a little something going from beaten-down conditions. With a forward PE north of 27, especially considering the firm's sheer size, Apple is clearly not a value stock despite Mr. Buffett being...

The Pause That Wouldn't Refresh Anything
A strong jobs report for May is sending the Dow and a bunch of sectors which have been lagging higher with rates and the Dollar. Meanwhile, tech, biotech, ARKK, and chips are mostly red as bulls continue to look for a "pause" in the rate hikes from The Fed later this month at the June 14th FOMC. Bulls also argue, alternatively, that even if...

It's Only Degeneracy When Charlie Munger Says it Is
I must say that I find it a bit rich (richer than a Dairy Queen Blizzard, indeed) to see a slew of articles in recent months with an, "aw, shucks" vibe about Charlie Munger's "Alibaba Mistake and how to learn from it!" In particular, Munger has been a sharp-tongued--unforgiving and even downright--critic of most things speculative, be it...

Check the Forecast Before Any More Bookings
Booking Holdings (BKNG), below on the daily chart, actually printed new all-time highs just two weeks ago. Since then, as you can see, the stock has headed straight downhill. Formerly Priceline.com, Booking has clearly been a monster winner since 2009 as one of the poster children for a QE/ZIRP world, and then the "stimmies" of the pandemic...

The Same Battlefield Formation
Surprise, surprise. Chips and NVDA are leading the charge higher, while small caps, retail and China names (KWEB ETF, e.g.) are all red as I write this. We have profiled these divergences quite a bit lately. And I recognize that tech bulls are simply responding with a, "So, what?" view to the whole deal. But my view that the move in NVDA and...
