It's OK to Be a Turncoat in the Market
Years ago after Tesla's jaw-dropping rally well into early-2014 I remember that I garnered quite a bit of internet support from noted TSLA and Elon Musk bears who would have loved nothing more than to see the stock, CEO, and company burn to the ground. At the time, I simply saw a chart so extended that the likely outcome was either sideways or...

Thanksgiving Night at Market Chess Cinemas
It has been a while since we have discussed recommended films and television series. Frankly, I am a tough critic when it comes to what I enjoy watching. Mind you, I am open to various genres and do not thumb my nose at comedy or any kind of fantasy. But it must be entertaining and not rely on tired formulas or regurgitated comic book...

Purple People Eaters Line Up for Black Friday
Purple Innovation Inc. (PRPL) is a small cap, low-priced, and fairly thinly-traded retail stock. But that's just it--Small caps and retail stocks are suddenly back en vogue as we head towards the quasi national holiday known as "Black Friday" for the post-food coma shopping bonanza. Purple is an interesting firm, claiming to have the "best...

A Thanksgiving Side Dish No More
(Most popular Thanksgiving side dishes by state, according to Google Trends) No longer an afterthought for this market, or worse yet an impediment for the bull case, the small cap issues housed in the Russell 2000 Index are making an emphatic move today to kick off the holiday week. On the zoomed-out IWM (ETF for the Russell) daily chart,...

Bide Your Time, for the Bigger Game Awaits
Despite some more dealmaking this morning, namely SCHW buying out AMTD (which, by the way, the market is wholeheartedly celebrating since the acquiring firm, SCHW, is higher by 8% in addition to AMTD up around 20%), the broad market remains in near-term pullback mode after a multi-week advance on the major indices. Naturally, bears will argue...

Organizing the Chaos
Despite a post-earnings rally from Target attempting to cancel out the Home Depot selloff yesterday in the larger cap retail space, the broad market generally came out of the gate sluggishly this morning. However, small caps and software displayed some notable early strength. And as I write this that continues to be the case alongside some good...

Stay Opportunistic, Yet Vigilant
Quite a few biotechnology and healthcare stocks have suddenly caught fire of late, with Karuna Therapeutics Inc. (KRTX) the face of the current rally, on an improbable and exhilarating run this week from $17 to $152. The party may have more fun yet to come, though we know biotech always presents its own unique set of risks. On the one hand,...

Holidays Coming...Soon
Much like our analysis of Square (SQ) last week, Netflix (NFLX) may very well be in the same place as a former high-flying market leader which has become a fairly obvious laggard among large cap tech stocks for at least the last four months. On the updated NFLX weekly chart, below, with the stock pushing back above $300 today there figures to...
