Real Talk for the New Year

While from far perfect, we hit some major issues correctly in 2022. That said, I find it rather uncouth to constantly harp on one's good calls, especially when anyone with half a brain knows that speculation is a fine mess full of constant blunders--The key is to mitigate the risk and take professional measures to refocus.  In addition, I would...

No Need to Make a Production Out of It!

The "New Year, New Me!" mantra seemed to have hit Wall Street this morning, with bulls celebrating a gap up in the futures and at the opening bell. While we are still technically in the "Santa Rally" holiday period, as it typically takes up to a week most years to get everyone back at their desks off the break, I remain vigilant to respect the...

Another Year in the Books; Be Proud

While those chock full of insecurities, hubris, and cheap braggadocio will constantly try to remind you that they are always winning big, the reality is that the seasoned speculator understands and respects just how challenging it can be to merely survive year-in, year-out in this business. Believe me when I tell you that I have some seem of...

There's Always Hope

As we wind down the final two sessions of 2022, bulls are finding some reason for hope in what has otherwise been a dreadful December. Stocks are squeezing on typical low volume for this holiday week, with the lowly oversold Nasdaq up about 2.4% as I write this.  The rally may have some legs into the long New Year's weekend, especially...

An Ominous Sign for Winter

Stock bulls may be learning the timeless lesson insofar as being careful what they wish for.  On the back of China announcing various reopening measures the main reaction has come with another spike higher in rates despite stock index futures popping last evening off the long holiday weekend. True, the Dow is higher as I write this, but growth...

A Slow Developing Bear But Dangerous Nonetheless

Some bear markets, like 2008, feature an angry, rabid bear prowling the campgrounds for food and ravaging anyone and anything in its way, even some things and people not in its way.  Other bears, like 2000-2002, the 1970s, and perhaps this bear, are more slowly developing, with a cute little baby bear at first stealing some Peppermint Pattys...

Looking Sideways at Santa Claus

Bulls are feeling their oats this morning as they believe they are correctly front-running the iconic "Santa Rally" on Wall Street, which technically begins in duration next Monday and spills over into the first two trading days of 2023. Nike and FDX both rallying sharply after earnings looks to be helping their cause, as is the S&P 500 Index...

Brace Yourself for More of What the Bank of Japan Did

After decades of propping up zombie banks/corporations with ultra-easy monetary policies since the Nikkei bubble popped back in 1990, very few non-government entities now want to buy Japanese Government Bonds (JGBs), which I suspect was the motivation for the overnight news that the Bank of Japan  (BoJ) is raising its cap on the 10-year JGB...
