Riding Into the Melee

A frenetic bounce in the opening hour or so of today's session is seeing bulls recapture a chunk of yesterday's losses, notwithstanding the drama which unfolded last evening as TSLA CEO Elon Musk tweeted out that Tesla would no longer accept Bitcoin as a form of payment for its car purchases. Naturally, Bitcoin suffered a sharp correction on...

Gut Check Time

After a red hot inflation reading this morning we have various macro tourists out and about proclaiming this is all a big misunderstanding. I, myself, have harkened back to the Q2 2008 inflation head-fake which eventually help to exacerbate the deflationary crash later that year amid the global financial crisis. However, as one of my favorite...

Oasis No More

An early bounce attempt off a fairly large gap down across the board this morning is at risk of entirely rolling back over as we speak. In terms of analyzing the construction of the market, the most glaring change from previous instances during this multi-week bout of weakness in growth stocks (mostly housed in the QQQ and Nasdaq), is that the...

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....
