If I Did It...

Tesla kicks off a loaded week of earnings tonight. And, while I do not have a strong opinion for all of the market leaders this week in the near-term, over the coming quarters I still believe the high PE names will face multiple compression even as their reports likely continue to come in strongly. Simply put, we are very likely close to a...

Bitcoin and Gold: It's Not a Zero-Sum Game

The initially failed breakdown in Bitcoin below $30,000 has led to a multi-day squeeze back above it. As is often pertinent in market, from failed moves in one direction come aggressive moves in the other. And when it comes to crypto, we can expect such a volatile young asset class to respond with the requisite beta. However, even as crypto...

Well I Guess There's Only One Thing Left to Do

Another "stick save" off the latest selloff on Monday has bulls increasingly galvanized that equities are not going lower anytime soon. Indeed, the mega cap tech monsters like FB GOOGL, coupled with AAPL MSFT resilience as trillion dollar market cap enterprises, with the SNAP TWTR earning rallies as the cherries on top are clearly at the heart...

No More Summer Blues

For the first time since early-June I am back to being long the gold complex for a trade. Given the U.S. Dollar's weakness today as many commodities rally, coupled with the GDX (ETF for gold miners, seen on daily chart, below) sporting a bullish RSI (bottom pane) divergence to price on the latest push down, the setup is there for the precious...

The Inflation Battle is Far from Over

Although Monday's broad market selloff in equities, which was accompanied by Treasuries rallying as rates plunged, saw a bevy of "I-Told-You-So's" from market players and pundits who remain unconvinced that inflation is anything other than a minor blip coming off a pandemic re-opening, it is interesting to note that some prominent commodities...

OK, Maybe it is the Summer of Coffee

After a stellar month of May, gold fell flat on its face in June. Although the yellow metal has tightened things up so far in July, I have not had a gold long on in my trading account in over a month at this point. In all likelihood, the rising Dollar combined with a host of other factors likely threw a wrench in any hope for gold to dominate...
