Getting Exotic
The monthly timeframe of the emerging markets ETF, EEM, illustrates the potential for a rotation to continue this quarter. Thus far, China has been the big winner, along with Russia, in terms of the BRIC countries comprising the EEM. In my Weekend Video Strategy Session, later today, I will flesh out this idea. To be sure, the rotation thesis...

Saturday Night at Market Chess Cinemas
If you have not seen the sweeping film, Patton (1970), based on real-life General George S. Patton, then you are missing out on beautiful storytelling about an American legend. George C. Scott plays Patton brilliantly, with the accompanying swagger, timely smirks, and true purpose of carving out his place in military history. In...

Capital Keeps Making The Getaway
Just when it looks as though bulls have run out of juice, we always seem to find capital rotations making "the getaway." As an example, in recent weeks we saw a rotation away from healthcare and biotechnology stocks initially, down to energy and oil services.

Looking for Another Good Fit
On the back of my last post about GE, Nokia might also be intriguing from a long-term perspective.

Say Hello to Those Hacks for Me; Chess Moves
With HACK, the cybersecurity ETF, having a good week, I went long FEYE on its own merits, too. Specifically, I went long FEYE at $42.03 with a protective stop-loss below $40. On the daily chart for FEYE, below you can see the attempt to resolve the highlighted falling channel to the upside. The stock has a fair amount of shorts in it to...

Playing the Same Notes
One main reason why I ditched my equity short exposure into the bell yesterday (individual shorts, mind you, not index shorts or long volatility), was because the small caps are playing the same tune. Specifically, to update that IWM (ETF for the Russell 2000 Index) hourly chart, below, we can see the initial breakdown from the highlighted (in...

The Big Three
If the biotech bull keeps screaming higher, BLUE ESPR JUNO are the big three technical long setups I have on watch. On their respective daily charts, below, note the tight basing action by price within the context of an established uptrend. Bears have had multiple chances to break these lower, namely ESPR, but buyers continue to step in. BLUE...
