This Sentiment is No Joke

CNN Fear & Greed Index's (below, updated) rigorous methodology has pointed to stubborn "Extreme Greed" for over a month now with only very brief slippage down to "Greed" territory. For as long as I have been tracking this Index, this is easily one of the longest streaks in either extreme territory that I have seen.  But of course that is not...

It's Not Just Netflix and Tesla

The headlines will naturally gravitate towards last evening's marquee earnings reports, NFLX and TSLA, as being the genesis for today's selloff mostly led lower in the Nasdaq.  However, do not overlook rates on the 10-Year Note (below on the weekly chart for TNX) bouncing back over 3.8% and off prior resistance trend as support now.  Higher...

The Sun Sets on Slam Dunk Investing

Earlier today I was reminded by a Member who had nailed the weakness in Hershey, below on the quarterly chart, that the iconic confectioner in central Pennsylvania had defied the market melt-up and has been as weak as any name since early-May.  Alongside KO MCD PEP, I would have to say HSY represents the QE/ZIRP liquidity bonanza insofar as...

Don't Write Off This Civilization, Just Yet

Quite a bit of buzz again about the death of the Dollar of late, especially in light of the selloff in the greenback.  And while I am quite bullish on commodities due to entrenched inflation for the rest of the decade, in the short-term I still think the Dollar has some unfinished business above.  In particular, we spent some time this weekend...

Only D.B. Cooper Can Turn This Market Now

Days like today make it feel like the market will rise at least 1% per day in perpetuity. After all, we have nonstop 0DTE options traders without a care in the world about SEC scrutiny, a Fed Chair who hems and haws even when he is supposedly hawkish, daily meme stocks like EDTX going bananas to the upside, and mega cap tech like META seemingly...

Celebrating What's Swept Under

Markets are still ebullient as I write this, with the softer CPI print this morning going as expected for the majority. The issue is that since the June CPI data, we have gasoline prices and oil going much higher, as seen respectively below on the daily charts for UGA and USO ETFs.  Even though energy is only one part of the CPI, it is surely a...

On Tigers, Bulls, and Bears

Well over a decade ago, the late, great, Julian Robertson gave an interview where he recalled being too early (i.e. wrong!) in shorting the Dot-Com Bubble in 1999/2000. Robertson had founded Tiger Management, one of the first hedge funds, in 1980, and is still considered to this day to be a Wall Street legend, mentoring tons of future stars. ...

The Fed Checked Out of Inflation

But they can't ever leave.  Despite a cooler jobs report this morning than the ADP data yesterday implied, fears of another Fed rate hike later this month remain very much in play. Small caps are trying to shrug that off by bouncing back from yesterday's selloff. However, I am looking for $186 (just above spot price) on the IWM ETF for the...

I Had to Get it on, Man; Inflation Was Making a Move

Prior comparisons to bull runs in stocks amid higher rates miss the mark insofar as the debt-to-GDP ratio being in the stratosphere this time around, not to mention a prolonged period of QE/ZIRP/"stimmies" policies enabling plenty of companies to not only survive but thrive when they otherwise would not have lasted a year or two in normalized...

Higher for Longer Until "Something" Breaks

With stronger than expected GDP, uniform passing of stress tests by banks, and weekly jobless claims posting the biggest drop in twenty months, bulls seem to be in the "have our cake and eat it, too" mindset.  However, in economics there is always a price to be paid.  Here, rates must go higher, even as Powell and his band of merry printers at...

It All Comes Down to Apple, Buffett

How is this for drama? With CNBC on an "Apple $3 trillion market cap alert," the stock is trading at roughy thirty times forward earnings (and a PEG of 4) and has been a one-way melt-up machine in 2023. The AAPL monthly chart, below, shows one of the most glaring bearish RSI divergences to price (bottom pane) you will ever see for a stock this...

Crypto Bros Strike Back!

Bitcoin and several crypto-related stocks are the clear winners today amid a soft tape, as hot money seeks to rotate to keep the party going in risk assets while many tech/growth names cool off.  Even most bulls admit that some of the melt-up names of late, like Carvana (below on the daily chart, updated), need to digest recent gains. However,...

Unsinkable Rates

You may have noticed that Jerome Powell is out talking like a tough guy this week in front of Congress. Naturally, he is doing so after failing to raise rates last week and essentially backstopping wealthy depositors for regional banks back in March, essentially eliminating a fat left tail risk to markets for the time being which, in turn,...

The Last Gasp of Complacency

If you traded during the summer of 2011 then you know there was a moment right before all heck broke loose and we had a bonfire market swoon for a while there that stocks went down and so too did the VIX. Up until that point, we had a narrow market with capital congregated in a few obvious names but many weak sectors overall (sound familiar?)....
