Footprints in the Dark Alley

It is rather easy to overlook some of the notable strength in various downtrodden defensive/value plays with dividends, since the persistent bid in small caps, chips, and various high beta growth names continues to fly in the face of very elevated bullish sentiment (which is typically a cautionary sign) as well as elevated bullish exposure...

A Little Too Much Christmas Spirit

Massive earnings pops in OKTA and ZS are giving bulls newfound hope that the CRM ZM earnings selloffs from earlier this week were mere aberrations in lieu of indicating a new market regime. And with this morning's continued strength, who can blame them for thinking that? While I am not totally onboard with December turning out to be the same...

And, of course, whether we must take the vaccine as a compulsory measure (and the Constitutionality of such...

A Ceremonial Tuesday

New month or not, we have an almost-ceremonial turnaround Tuesday vibe to the market, something we have seen countless times heretofore, in terms of buyers feeling emboldened after the slightest bit of weakness. I escaped a levered short IWM trade with a win both yesterday and this morning, albeit kicking the trade earlier than I wanted to due...

Like Ships in the Night

It may very well happen slowly, like two passing ships in the night, but as overheated equities come in a bit and downtrodden gold/miners start to firm up, we could see a nice reversion trade between the two groups. We have discussed this topic both here and with Members of late, of course. But with gold miners staging solid afternoon price...

The Dow is 420 Friendly in More Ways Than One

The recent strong rally in pot-related stocks sure made the market feel about as "4/20 friendly" as it has been in a good while.

Either way, we have some of the recent speculative fervor and uniquely bullish sentiment...
