While a bull run may essentially bail out dip-buyers time and time again, it is still useful to keep this discipline in mind, especially considering the carnage even in this market in the retail and energy sectors over the...

It's Bell BIVV Devoe Time for Biotech Stocks

It appears as though the small and mid market capitalization biotechnology issues housed in the XBI ETF are catching an impressive rotation early on this morning.

The opticals ( fiber- optic component makers) have seen rotation within the group for a while now, with leadership alternating in an endless game of musical chairs.

The Best Time to Buy Snapchat is When There Are Filters in the Street

We have largely eschewed the notion of fooling around with SNAP much since its IPO, mostly due to the lethargic price action and overall trend down.
