The Nefarious Activities of Chad
If the breakout highlighted below on the daily chart of CHAD, the bearish China mainland ETF (essentially inverse to ASHR), holds true, then China may be starting a fresh leg lower.

The Last Gasp of a Common Theme This Autumn
Small cap and biotechnology issues are outperforming again today, as the holiday drift appears to be setting in. Throughout this autumn, we have seen intervals where those groups have outperformed.

Big Green Tractor in a Big Green Range
One of the more interesting events over the summer, which we discussed back then in real-time on this website , was that John Deere was making fresh highs while Caterpillar, another large cap ag machinery play, was teasing multi-year lows.

The Hunt for Thanksgiving Oil
Crude oil spiked up this morning after the downing of a Russian warplane near the Turkey-Syria border. As we speak, the USO ETF for crude is pulling back in to that $13.25 level we looked at yesterday. If crude is going to put in a low here, once and for all, I suspect converting that level into support headed into tomorrow morning's inventory...
