Gobbled Up Into the Gap Up
Despite a sizable gap up on several indices this morning, the small caps are flipping back to red as I write this. The Nasdaq is not faring much better, as it is flattish here.

The Glorious Railroad Will Be Built
While I could harp on the apparent death of the Under Armour brand today, of the coming AAPL FB TSLA earnings within forty-eight hours or so, I want to circle back to some value plays in the transportation sector we have looked at previously.

Thus, some giveback may actually not be the worst thing in the world anyway, in terms of the...

Using the Sword and the Shield
Despite the major indices flashing green as I write this, we have some ugly post-earnings reactions in the likes of AKS QCOM SHOP UAA, among others. On the topic of AK Steel, we can also see U.S. Steel (X) get hit. But it is worth noting which steels stick out the proverbial shield to defy these selling attacks. And when we do, Schnitzer comes...

Ahead of what figures to be plenty of year-end fireworks in The Fed, in terms of the direction of monetary policy for 2018, precious miners are pretty much at do-or-die levels. For a while now, their various fits-and-starts has likely frustrated bulls and bears alike, with plenty of mixed signals along the way from which to choose. In other...

Draining and Straining This Market Into Halloween
The small market capitalization stocks housed in the Russell 2000 Index continue to lag the senior averages as we head into the heart of today's afternoon session. On the IWM daily chart, below, which is the ETF for the Russell, we can continue to see those pinched Bollinger Bands we observed last week drive home the idea of a rather...

It's the Same Drill for Under Armour
In front of a Halloween earning date tomorrow, Under Armour is reversing higher this morning in the face of a Bank of America downgrade. Although it failed miserably, the same type of blueprint which applied to the likes of Chipotle (CMG) now applies to UAA, in terms of looking for a potential bottom. Simply put, we want to see signs that...
