More Pressing Matters Than GE

Regarding General Electric's post earnings bounce from its downtrodden positions on the long-term timeframes, I continue to key off the $14 level. If bulls allow GE to dip back under that level then I suspect the current relief rally will prove ephemeral and uniquely demoralizing for value players seeking to bag the proverbial elephant. But...

The Miners Have This Rat: This Gnawing Rat

With earnings out of the way this morning, as one of our Members noted earlier, the major materials miner player Cleveland-Cliffs could easily squeeze into the heart of the second quarter of trading. In addition to the rotation we have seen of late into the materials, mining, and general commodity complex, note that CLF is a rather...

POSCO May Be in a "Heads I Win, Tails You Lose" Spot

(Full disclosure: POSCO (PKX) is a name I have owned as a long-term investment inside the VIP arm of Market Chess Subscription Services since 2015) Owning PKX, the massive South Korea steel maker, the last few years has indeed been an interesting journey, as plenty of steels and global materials miners were all but written off as byproducts of...

The Trend is Bending

“The trend is your friend until the end when it bends.” – Ed Seykota The commercial real estate stocks housed in the IYR ETF have profited nicely from a generally very low interest rate environment since 2009, as one would expect. The fallout from the 2008 financial crisis was baked into the proverbial cake during the prior, legendary bear...

Nice 'n' Easy Would Do it This Time

We are winding down a generally slower-paced trading session today than what we have seen in recent weeks. And, yet, if bulls can help to base the S&P 500 Index sideways for a few days above 2,700, for example, it may very well set up a further advance into late-April. Energy and energy-related plays, including solar, shined today. I still like...

Fighting the Good Fight

GrubHub, a name which I have been long inside Market Chess Subscription Services, had a rough early morning on the back of a downgrade from Morgan Stanley . At one point, GRUB was not far from taking out yesterday's lows, which would have been a rather ugly giveback considering the strength of yesterday's rally. However, as we speak GRUB is...

An Exotic Solar Guide for a Simple Chart

The long-term chart for TAN, sector ETF for solar stocks, below on the monthly timeframe, tells the story of a sector which has largely been dead money since 2012. While it is true that there were spirited rallies in 2013, early-2014 and early-2015, ultimately those breakout attempts were met with stiff resistance, and the long, sideways...
