Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer
Today's selling is sure to give bears a good deal of material. Indeed, a failure for a sustained "Santa Rally" to take place after Christmas until early-january aligns with one of those old Wall Street axioms: "If Santa Claus fails to call, bears may come to Broad & Wall," which mean if the last five trading days of the current year (2016) and...

Keeping the Holiday Chips Honest
The semiconductors, led by star NVIDIA Corporation, have undoubtedly been a key contributor to the bull case for a good while now. Yesterday's launch in NVDA gave rise to a ballyhoo regarding how foolish bears were for trying to short the name and how potent the name truly was. Even this morning at the open, too, saw NVDA make fresh highs. But...

What is a Ho-Ho-Ho
The Santa rally is kicking off with a drifting move higher today. The Dow is not at 20,000, but that is not making life any easier for bears who have yet to throw in the towel on their thesis. I am looking to see if the precious miners can sustain today's bounce, too, beyond a mere one-off move. Indeed, doing so will be a bit of a change in...

Holiday Liquidity Sloshing Around
Volumes are expectedly light into the end of 2016, with plenty of fund managers and traders gone until at least the first week in January. As such, some small cap names become even more prone to wild intraday moves with a general lack of liquidity. One issue which causes none of those concerns is Alphabet, below on the daily chart. While it...

Saturday Night at Market Chess Cinemas
One of my favorite Bill Murray films is Scrooged (1988), which also happens to be perfect for a Christmas viewing. Murray is at his best when he has a bit of a harsh edge to his characters in comedy or comedy/drama genre films. And this film gives him a perfect venue to display his talents against the backdrop of a tough-love Christmas...

Mr. Market Knows if You've Been Bad or Good
Unlike Santa Claus, though, Mr. Market does not much care one way or the other how you have been behaving. In reality, the market is what it is, and is not out to get any of us nor purposefully reward us, either. Personalizing market action and inevitable losses in trading remains a surefire way to get blown off your path. As we wind down a...

This Will Do for Now
Consistent with a slow week leading up to a major holiday, markets continue to drift despite the ballyhoo about "Dow: 20,000." GoPro is finally gaining ground today on the back of a rumor that KKR is an interested suitor. Regardless of whether the rumor comes to fruition, GPRO is certainly capable of a quick holiday long scalp to squeeze shorts...
