Bloomin' Brands Inc., owner of the Outback Steakhouse chain (along with Carrabba's Italian Grill, Bonefish Grill, and Fleming's Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar), is one of a handful of restaurants which have quietly enjoyed a bit of a resurgence this spring. We have noted this theme in prior blog posts and for Members. But it...

Guard Up for Mighty May
The month of May in the stock market is one of the more notorious months of the year. However, that reputation may be a bit undeserved, as June typically can be a rougher month if you look at seasonal statistics.

Saturday Night at Market Chess Cinemas
Tonight is a bit a curveball, but it is well worth the effort. The first season of the long-running television series, NYPD Blue, ranks among the best drama I have ever seen. After the first stellar season, an unfortunate contract dispute saw star David Caruso (now of CSI: Miami fame) leaving. At that point, there was a noticeable drop-off...

There's Only One Thing Wrong with Netflix...
And that would be Netflix cancelled the brilliant comedy series, "Lilyhammer," after three seasons ("Lilyhammer" was the first exclusive content offered by the Netflix service). Beyond that minor gripe, though, Netflix as a market leader is acting brilliantly with earnings now out of the way. The first hurdle for NFLX was breaching $148...

Let's Rock
Plenty of big earnings tonight like AMZN GOOGL INTL MSFT SBUX, even GPRO SWKS. And then tomorrow morning we have GDP and more big earnings like CVX GM XOM. The market will have plenty to digest and react to. So, I am not too interested in being aggressive beforehand. Overall, recent gains are being digested fairly well so far, while...

GrubHub Making the Case That Everybody Eats
In the midst of the busiest earnings week of the year so far, Grubhub is shooting higher this morning after beating the top and bottom lines. GRUB is just one of many software plays which merit attention in a growth cycle for this segment of the market. And even though bears argue the market is too rich up here, if Wall Street decides to pay...

Underwater Too Long
Today's peculiar upside reversal in the precious metals' miners comes at an important technical spot. Not only is GDX (and GDXJ, for the junior miners) oversold, seen on the first chart below for the senior gold miners' ETF, but GLD, ETF for the yellow metal itself, has backtested its 200-day moving average (yellow line on second daily chart,...
