The Tenth Wishes You'd Lost More
A variation of an old poker joke is that when it comes to telling other people your "bad beat stores," or when you are mathematically favored to win a hand before it is completed but an opponent defies the long odds and beats you, you are better off keeping it to yourself because nine out of ten people don't care about your bad beat...and the...

Tata Motors Limited, auto maker out of Mumbai, India, is surging this week after earnings. On the weekly chart, below, note the potential for TTM to have just confirmed a sizable bottom since last summer, so long as $31.40 now converts into newfound support, below. Also note the extreme outperformance of TTM this week versus other auto makers...

Elegance is Nice But Not Required
There are, indeed, plenty of other markets and macro headlines circling about these days for too many market players to concern themselves with the price action in natural gas. However, with the 2016 Hurricane Season starting today, and wonky on-site reporters on the weather networks playfully wagering each other which Gulf Coast or eastern...

Having a Good Stretch
Energy has been enjoying a good couple of weeks directly in the face of the U.S. Dollar rally, making the bounce for USO and XLE all the more impressive as other commodities and miners corrected. Still, it is worth noting that energy titan and, arguably, a good "tell" for the XLE, Exxon Mobile, is signaling some short-term caution today. On...

Losers Getting the Love
The theme we saw at various intervals in recent weeks, of beaten-down high beta issues like GPRO TWTR catching a bid and exuding relative strength, is persisting the first day back from holiday. In addition to TWTR, we have the likes of LNKD and some badly-beaten biotech outperforming. TASR has enjoyed something of a renaissance of late, too. ...

Holiday Hangover Slowing Things Down
Despite a hefty premium for the CPXX buyout by JAZZ, and CLF surging on the deal with MT, upside momentum in the broad market was initially blunted out of the gate this morning. AMZN is still acting well among leaders, but other names like CMG may be vulnerable to cracking again, on top of some glaring relative weakness out of MCD SBUX. ...

Sunday Matinée at Market Chess Cinemas, Memorial Day Edition
There are many great ones from which to choose on Memorial Day Weekend, but I still say that The Best Years of Our Lives (1946) presents a great tribute to those who lost their lives in combat by, ironically, showing how much life has changed for those veterans who survived the second world war. The story is gripping, heartbreaking, but...

Was Uncle Junior Really Out of it This Whole Time?
One of the recurring themes of the market over the last few years has been the perennial underperformance by "junior" marquee issues, meaning they have institutional sponsorship for growth prospects but not nearly as much as, say, AMZN GOOGL. Specifically, the likes of LNKD P TWTR YELP have destroyed a fair amount of capital without batting an...
