In corrective or bear markets, it is often said that correlations run even more tightly than usual, in terms of inter-market analysis. Specifically, "risk off" currencies like the Japanese Yen tend to come to he forefront, as do credit markets, as opposed to healthy bull runs in equities where those correlation tend to take a backseat to the " ...

Baby Bears Buried for the Day

If we are, in fact, going into a full-blown bear market this year, or at least a deeper correction than what we have already seen, then today's price action amounts to being a mere appetizer of what is to come.

Chasing the Chasers

With the upside reversal from this morning gaining traction, it is likely a good spot to not get caught leaning too heavily short into a long, three-day weekend (markets will be closed on Monday for MLK Jr. Day). Furthermore, the weak link of the market of late, the small and mid-cap biotechnology issues housed in the XBI ETF, are playing a...

A Quirky Rebound

After another immediate fade off strong pre-market futures, bulls furiously rebounded to stage a sharp upside reversal this morning.

On the updated...

Making of a Move Into Winter

Netflix reports earnings next week, on January 19th. Barring a sizable gap up, I suspect the stock, after a sizzling spring and summer last year, may be set to hibernate for the rest of winter. After popping last Wednesday on international growth news, the stock is giving back a chunk of those gains today. More importantly, however, is the...

An Opening Tease

U.S. stock index futures had been indicating a fairly sizable snapback rally this morning, on the back of yesterday afternoon's upside reversal during the cash market hours. However, the initial move was blunted by sellers early on, as small caps were leading to the upside and just now briefly flipped red. On the 30-minute chart of the small...
