More Reflection on Twitter

A key point we have been emphasizing for Members in recent sessions is that the higher TWTR's stock went, the larger the risk of a ferocious rug-pull if an imminent buyout was not realized. So, in the short-term the stock smacked of that much more risk. But now that we have seen a barrage of negative reports hit in the last fifteen hours or...

A Look Behind the Scenes at the Twitter Buyout Auction

"A feeling that something isn't right," indeed. You almost get the sense with all of the ballyhoo about the TWTR prospective buyout bids that either it gets the benefit of a bid bidding or...or no bid in the end at all.

Hurricane Matthew Plays

With good fortune, Hurricane Matthew will turn out to be a dud in the coming days and no-one will suffer a serious injury or death. But in the event some serious damage does occur, as ominous as Matthew's path and ferocity looks now, it is worth noting some standard "hurricane plays."

As evidence of this recurring theme, you will note how sentiment has become all the more skeptical about this latest...

A Good Reminder About Gold

Days like today, as gold and her miners get crushed, worth reposting Mr. Hearst's philosophy about "The Color." As ugly as it was today, I suspect a year-end rally remans very much in the cards. See you after the bell for my recap.

The Case for and Against Sugar

Famous science writer, Gary Taubes is set to release a new book in late-December titled, The Case Against Sugar . Taubes has previously detailed the critical mistakes the FDA made in declaring dietary fat to be the main culprit for disease and well-being while sugar/fructose was largely viewed with a far less disdainful eye. Recent...

Balancing Out the Move in Gold

Back on September 15th we noted a potential scenario for gold and her miners in this blog post . The setup was not unlike equities in the summer 2009--A significant rally for months on end coming off a major bear market bottom, followed by a fairly obvious daily chart head and shoulders top. The quick washout, followed by a pivot to commence...
