Nostalgia is Not Such a Bad Thing

Headed into Netflix earnings tonight, stocks are enjoying a modest relief bounce after yesterday's sharp downside reversal. We will likely be hearing an update from the Pelosi/Mnuchin tag team regarding stimulus deal talks later this afternoon which, of course, is arguably the main focus of the market in the near-term beyond even earnings and...

A Literal Interpretation

Alternate Title: "If Zoom Goes, We All Go" A fairly obvious, bullish cup-and-handle setup on the IGV, software sector ETF, daily chart (highlighted in light blue, below), is on the minds of many bulls right now looking for any positive Stimulus Deal headlines to propel us higher yet for another round of TikTok tutorials on how to make a score...

Muchos Pendejos with the Conchos y Anteros

[Photo above is from a great independent film, by the way, Mexico's El Infierno (2010)] With the COP for CXO deal this morning, the energy patch continues to consolidate while the pickings are awfully cheap for the survivors of a long-term bear market and general disregard by investors for the sector at-large.

Saturday Night at Market Chess Cinemas

I cannot, in good faith, recommend that you watch Showtime's television series, "Dexter," which ran from 2006 through a downright awful final season into 2013. In fact, the final season was so bad that Showtime recently announced a revival of sorts, with a ten-episode limited return, to essentially try and wipe the bitter taste of one of the...

Value Funds' Doors Closed; Others Opening Up

A headline this week which read , "Value fund manager AJO with $10 billion assets to shut business," was just one in a long line of "value" funds closing down amid this epic market melt-up. Given The Fed's infatuation with disallowing price discovery in the organic sense, and their apparent animus towards savers, it is the tallest of tasks...

Hey Bears, How About a Courtesy Flush?

The aggressive re-pricing of high-flying software play FSLY after lowered guidance, combined with the dimming prospects with an imminent stimulus deal (not to mention lingering issues of, perhaps, a new round of second wave pandemic restrictions) are all weighing on the broad market this morning. Bulls are rebutting the FSLY-pricked-the-bubble...

Firing Back with a Purpose

This morning seems like a good time to reiterate that oil stocks continue to be very much out of favor on The Street, and likely will continue to be for the foreseeable future regardless of what actually happens in the coming General Election. Simply put, the AAPL AMZN NIO types of names will continue to capture the hearts and minds of most...
