Moreover, footwear retailers continue to be a hot niche, albeit with ZUMZ reporting later this week as yet another litmus test beyond the recent FL SCVL earnings beats. As you...

Two Scoops of Black Friday and Cyber Monday
Equities are mixed at the moment, with some parts of the Nasdaq looking a bit exhausted, short-term, while hot money players dabble in cryptocurrency-related plays. To be sure, a winner like Square (SQ) could use a few days to cool off and reset for a proper, lower risk swing long entry, and similar comments apply to the far more speculative...

Heating Up Into the Chill
Even as the weather outside is giving more signs by the day of impending winter, the enterprise software niche continues to heat up.

However, the heavily-shorted fitness hardware play has clearly been a beneficiary of shorts backing off a bit as Thanksgiving approaches. While it is true that some beaten-down names like APRN P SNAP TWLO have been unable to muster much of a...
