Cherry Coke and Apples in Season This Summer

The melt-up in shares of Apple, seen below on its daily chart, alongside the likes of TSLA ZM, figure to have been instrumental for Nasdaq bulls by the time the closing bell rings today to finish out this late-summer week with another decisive victory.

Outnumbered Predators

Bears are feeling like outnumbered predators these days, especially with another early, quick, dip-buy in the Nasdaq off the opening bell weakness this morning.

Wall Street Has Turned Into a Rug n' Shrug Massage Parlor

A quick (and exceedingly rare, these days) "rug-pull" in the market earlier this morning saw the Death Valley-hot Nasdaq actually flip red before bouncing back to green as I write this. Monsters like TSLA continue to squeeze and put stubborn and numerous shorts in the unenviable position of them pondering whether they should just go ahead and...

Sorry I Ruined Your Tesla Party

With TSLA and NVDA still putting the hurt on shorts deep into the afternoon portion of today's session, the QQQ ETF is up by more than 1.25% as I write this. As that melt-up continues, there are a few underlying developments regarding rotations, however: The tape is back to being concerned about the "re-opening plays," as airlines, cruise...

Down Days for the Nasdaq Belong on the Oldies Station

NVIDIA, the high growth chip play, in front of earnings later this week (Wednesday after the bell), and Tesla, in front of effecting its stock split by the end of this month, are surging this morning and dragging the Nasdaq higher yet as I write this. Typically, a stock split is one of the more neutral developments you will see on Wall...
