Sunday Matinée at Market Chess Cinemas

Nearly twenty-five years later, I can vividly remember sitting in a theater being mesmerized by the cinematography in the film, A River Runs Through It (1992). Based on the true story of Norman Maclean’s life in Missoula, Montana, Robert Redford directs a gripping period piece about fly fishing and the different paths that two brothers take...

Leave the Gun. Take the Steak

Bulls continue to defy top-callers as we work through the late-afternoon portion of today's session. I am mostly looking to stay out of trouble on the short side, for now, until I see some more meaningful signs of buyers losing their grip on the action. While some sectors like regional banks are well off session highs, biotech has staged a...

This Bear Claw Recipe Calls for Bittersweet Chips

The vertical rally in the semiconductors is suddenly closing in on a major resistance trendline dating back to last Memorial Day, when the chips seemed unstoppable. As we know, however, that proved to be anything but the case, as the semis topped out and trapped a plethora of longs near $60, on the SMH sector ETF. Since then, the semis...

A Tactical Maneuver

As we wind down the session on a day when many market players are likely busy with basketball or St. Patrick's Day, or both, commodities have notably outperformed again. We are seeing a bit of a reversal down in the gold miners, though, we saw me taking some profits inside Market Chess Subscription Services. However, the financials are waking...

It's a Winston Wolfe Bull Market, You Know

A hidden, subtle issue about the rally in commodities in 2016 may very well be that sugar, of all things, led the complex down since 2011 in a very pronounced manner, in a potent downtrend, before bottoming late-last summer. After sugar bottomed before Labor Day 2015, it then made a meaningful higher swing low, which we profiled in real-time...

Rain is a Good Thing

"Rain makes corn, corn makes whiskey" -Luke Bryan It is a fairly slow morning on the indices, but another one in which buyers are stepping in to defend against any type of rollover in the market. Even more impressive is that bulls are resilient in the face of swooning biotech and healthcare stocks, lethargic financials, and the Dollar/Yen cross...
