Outback: Australian for Relative Strength

Cheesecake Factory, Inc., is one of the more visible losers this morning, as the causal dining chain notorious for long wait times and heaping portions of high carbohydrate dishes updated poor guidance this morning. While CAKE is down more than 10% as I write this, we ought not throw the entire causal dining baby out with the tap water. ...

OMER Took an Omertà

A little bit of a creative license taken with that blog post title on a slow, June afternoon does not change the fact that Omeros (first daily chart, below) is the visible winner in biotech today. Note the tight base breakout. Holding $17 now would be a very bullish development for the Seattle-based biopharmaceutical company. OMER is keeping...

A Lingering Appetite

To revisit a working thesis we discussed previously, the notion that the transition from Obama to Trump would automatically mean a much more bearish stance on the firearms plays seems to be quietly under heavy scrutiny by the market right now.

A fairly obvious rotation out of technology/discretionary leaders, such as AAPL AMZN FB GOOGL, among others, is materializing this morning on the back of the same theme to close out last week.

Sunday Matinée at Market Chess Cinemas

It is probably a contrarian point of view, but I have always thought there was something off about Quentin Tarantino’s films. Granted, he has made some entertaining ones. But they are not quite on the level of genius or even excellent films that many would have you believe. As an alternative to some of Tarantino’s campy films, consider Out of...

There's No Nation Like Rotation

What's the best nation in the world? Donation. What's the best city in the world? Generosity. An abrupt rug-pull this morning in hot momentum tech darlings, like NVDA , and even AMD AAPL TSLA, among others, is applying pressure to the bull thesis for continued sector rotation to keep this market uptrend afloat headed into the FOMC next...

Double Indemnity When This Rotation Occurs

In addition to financials and small caps stealing headlines for being rotation beneficiaries this week, the often overlooked insurers in the KIE sector ETF are threatening to benefit as well. On the KIE daily chart, below, now how quiet the insurers have been as a group since March. A push above $88 now should trigger a breakout. And looking at...
