Quick Games While We Wait
It is tough to have any type of conviction one way or the other in front of likely fireworks this Thursday, not only with the Fed but also a slew of government data. I suspect the drifting action, down yesterday and up today, will continue until the main event Thursday afternoon. Meanwhile, beaten-down names like ONVO and WTW are garnering...

Upside Down
BABA is rallying this morning, still trying to shrug off the Barron's bearish piece over the weekend calling for a much deeper plunge than the China stock has already seen. To many contrarian, this sort of setups is ideal---A controversial company and stock which has already been decimated is now essentially being called a fraud and expected...

Keeping Tabs on Everything
The latest biotech blow-up, in RPTP, down roughly 40% today, drives home that lesson, once again, that even as a multi-year bull market leader biotechnology stocks are still riskier-than-usual stocks to own on an individual basis.

Slow and Steady Keeps You in the Race
We are off to a sluggish start in the market this week. However, it is likely the pace of the action will pick up the closer we get to the FOMC, concluding with tons of events Thursday afternoon. In the meantime, the small caps in the Russell 2000 Index, below on the zoomed-out 30-minute chart of the ETF, are still grinding towards the apex of...

A Hit Job in China
The controversial Barron's piece by Jonathan Lang over the weekend about BABA continues to provide for some pre-FOMC buzz this morning. The piece calls for BABA to basically drop 50% from current levels, amid other shots leveled at Jack Ma's firm, which is a creature of China's command economy. The stock is down over 3% as I write this, but...

Saturday Night at Market Chess Cinemas
We will go way back when tonight, regarding my favorite film about the sixteenth president, Abe Lincoln in Illinois (1940), and perhaps favorite film about any president in general. It is an oldie but a goodie, starring Raymond Massey. The story flows naturally and is gripping and historically thorough. Not many have seen it, but it is well...

Watch for the Throwback
Despite bullish seasonals in September, gold and the gold miners are not cooperating. As I discussed for Members in a video a few weeks back, seasonality should never be exclusively relied upon to make a trade. Instead, it is simply one component of a trade setup. And when we look at the updated GDX 30-minute chart, below, that $13 gave way...
