At some point, we knew the market could initiate a shakeout or well-timed rug-pull to keep longs honest after the quasi melt-up we have seen of late. However, as it stands now we have some appropriate...

I Have Two Words for You
"The jacket!" Speaking of jackets, more retail stocks are squeezing higher with authority than I can list right now. We have already noted the likes of RH SFIX here and for Members as trades. But have a look at a ZUMZ, for example, among many, many others.

Fun Operating in the Shadows
In life, sometimes it pays to be a bit shady. While there are tons of good, decent people out there, there are also some people who check in every so often merely to learn of your intimate personal business and then disappear until the next go-round. When I was a kid, a very wise man once told me that the best way to fend off intrusive,...

Creating a Temple of Doom for Shorts
Heavily-shorted stocks still seem to be putting quite a bit of duress on their respective short-sellers, as a general proposition. For reference, you can easily look up the short percentage of a stock's float for free using FinViz.com, for example.

Still Bullish on Twitter for the Long Run
This will be a topic of analysis I will flesh out in more depth soon for VIP Members when I give my regular long-term portfolio update. However, TWTR remains a long-term holding of mine and has since the $16 handle a few years back. While I recognize the last few quarters have been a long slog sideways, at best, for bulls and new especially...

Locked Horns
At first blush it appeared as though shares of TSLA finally coming back down would be ignored by the broad market, given the opening gap higher. However, tech stocks seem to be sensitive to a bunch of earnings selloff in that space, notably software, and led the mid-morning fade lower just now. The issue now is whether bulls can step back in...
