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...

I Talked to You, Right?
At the risk of sounding like Jimmy Conway , we have some red flags to buy stocks here, particularly growth stocks. In addition to the per se bearish price action, correlation like Junk Bonds in the JNK ETF, below on the daily chart, are indicating confirmation of a rollover from a multi-month bear market rally. The gap down, especially, is...

A Proper Duel
While natural gas breaks support again, and energy stocks as a whole are mixed, crude oil is turning in a solid morning so far. In all likelihood what we have here is a duel between slowing global demand amid global economic slowing coupled with entrenched bullish supply issues which are not likely to abate anytime soon.

Ho-Ho-Ho-Hold Up!
Consider this a friendly reminder that the official Santa Rally time period (yes, it is a real thing on Wall Street) consists of the last five trading days of the current calendar year and spills over into the first two sessions of the new year. Clearly, we are not there yet. So, despite how many are throwing around the phrase, "Santa Rally,"...

More Like a Noir
Even during overall bear markets, the month of December can often feature typical holiday cheer like a Hallmark movie this time of year. Thus far in 2022 that is certainly not the case. Since the big rally back on November 30th the price action across most markets is some of the most tedious action I can recall, especially for this time of...
