Sidearms in Focus

With earnings coming up this Thursday, I sold most of my SWHC long into strength this morning, inside Market Chess Subscription Services .

And gauging the daily chart, below, we can...

A Few Ideas Brewing This Morning

As the Fed Meeting begins today, we have the market flipping back and forth between red and green, still with no clear directional break. In the meantime, within biotechs we have huge gaps higher, like AERI, and monstrous gaps down, like AAVI, reinforcing the risk associated with playing that sector even in a ferocious bull run.  Elsewhere,...

After a steep downdraft since mid-May, the precious metals and miners appear to be looking to bounce into the FOMC later this week.  Of course, silver has been the weakest link the space for a while now, the proverbial dark corner of what has been a volatile, trendless move...

Sunset Boulevard for Twitter

With TWTR's stock unable to muster a weekly close over $36 on the back of a much-ballyhooed CEO change, a trip back down to the May 2014 $29.50 lows is now within shot.  In reality, Twitter is still a viable buyout target and has intriguing prospects from a long-term perspective.
