Can You Lay Off the Action?
No one travels to the casino with the intention of folding hand after hand in poker, nor to walk away from a cold blackjack table. But such is life as a speculator, where the action is soggy and most trades seem like a reach.

With this in mind, let us examine the XHB ETF for another perspective to see that the XHB's monthly RSI is now at its lowest point since 2009. On the monthly...

Lonely Homes; But Misery Loves Company
Housing bulls must be feeling awfully lonely these days, as the XHB and ITB sector ETFs have performed remarkably poorly over the last month. In fact, you might argue that the housing sector's abrupt (back in September) but now-persistent weakness is causing a good deal of consternation among the broad market, too.

The film makes you care...

Storm Clouds Not Going Away Yet
After a promising relief rally yesterday we are being reminded this morning that this market is likely still working through a corrective period. As I write this, the Dow is off by 300 points, compelling me to take gains in longs and take off a NTNX position basically flat from where I bought it.
