Citron and Twitter: A Social Match Made in Heaven

Shares of Twitter, Inc. were off by more than 8% today, as Citron Research came out with a rather bold and visible call for the stock to drop down to $25, after hitting recent highs of $36.80 earlier this month. Citron actually went so far as to say that of all the social plays beyond Facebook, Twitter was actually the most vulnerable to a...

Let's Work on Our TAN for Summer

Housed in the TAN sector ETF, solar stocks have quietly been outperforming most energy and materials names of late. In particular, Sunrun (RUN) out of San Francisco and Israel's SolarEdge (SEDG) seem to be the two standouts, with both stock charts on a tear since the second week of February with no signs of slowing down.

Commence Relief Rally: To Levitate or Not?

The opening gap higher this morning across equities is practically the living, breathing definition of what a "relief rally" is, where market players who had been leaning on the long side can let out a sigh of relief that the heavy selling we saw late-last week did not have a snowball effect over the weekend and spawn an even nastier,...

Saturday Night at Market Chess Cinemas

Mean Streets (1973) is often seen as the the film which gave birth to some of the later classics in which Robert De Niro and director Martin Scorsese collaborated. I recommend it on a standalone basis as well, though the context for future films is warranted too. via YouTube: Harvey Keitel plays Charlie, working his way up the ranks of a...
