The Plot Thickens for Precious Metals and Miners
After an explosive rally which seemed to either take many off-guard or continued along with apathy for those who swore off the sector (or never cared to begin with) the precious miners have leveled off the last few days even as silver and gold metals themselves ignore price dips. Still, the instructive point to note is that in the past when...

Do Not Mistake Inflation's Kindness for Weakness
One of the most surefire ways in life to discern someone's character, or lack thereof, is how quickly they are to mistake someone's kindness as weakness, be it in friendship, romance, or business. As far as "tells" go, that one is as reliable as it gets and should thus be information used wisely. In the case of the current market and economic...

Now That Feels More Like Fall
The weather is properly turning chillier this week (keep an eye on natural gas to see if a rally can actually stick now) as Thanksgiving rapidly approaches. In terms of stock market seasonality during midterm election years we could easily see a few bumps in the road leading up to Thanksgiving Day. However, as long as those dips stay relatively...

Market Chess Prices Are Going Up
Effective January 1st, 2023, prices for Market Chess Subscription Services are going up across the board. This will actually be the first rate increase since the service started. In the eight years (to the date!) since I launched Market Chess, I have held off on raising prices. However, with all of my vendors (video capture, filming,...

Be Prepared for This to Happen
As we have been discussing with Members for a while now, we are still operating in the middle stages of a protracted bear market, which means persistent rallies seemingly coming out of nowhere are the rule, not the exception. Headed into 2023, however, I expect that to change as the bear claws come out for the next leg down, as the middle...

We're On to the CPI
A lack of a decisive GOP "red wave" in the midterm elections look to have thrown some cold water on the market's recent rally, although this morning is not exactly a bloodbath, either. Still, the next main market event is coming up tomorrow morning and is arguably far more important in the near-term: The latest CPI (consumer price index) print...

The O'Chess Factor
You do not need me to discuss politics. And it is something I have little interest in doing, quite frankly. That said, one cannot ignore reality--We have the midterm elections today. And with a Biden White House alongside quite a few highly powerful, visible Democrat players in Congress (Pelosi, Schumer, just to name a few), the issue is...

A Salty Dollar
If we were block out all of the Powell talk, theories, guesstimates, and whatnot, simply put the U.S. Dollar's resurgence since around 2:40pm EST yesterday (seen below on the UUP ETF daily chart) can explain most of the weakness in equities. Sure, FTNT and ROKU are getting hammered after earnings. But, then again, COP is a stud in energy, as...

The End of the Day
Here we are, again. Another major FOMC which does indeed have serious implications for most asset classes over various timeframes. While it certainly has a chic, "too cool for school" vibe to dismiss these Fed meetings as being overhyped, the realty is that since at least the 2008 global financial crisis they are indeed highly significant and...

Deep Value in the Far East
With a staggering PE ratio of 2, South Korean steel maker POSCO, below on the quarterly chart, is back down to important price levels dating back to late-last century. Perhaps of most significance in the here and now, the legitimate prospect of a China re-opening (it has to come at some point fairly soon, one would think) is also spurring base...

Deciding Who Lives and Dies
While nothing is immune in a bear market, especially if and when we see the next leg down, it is worth noting which stocks in given sectors the market hints at as being winners versus losers for the eventual turn into a new bull regime. In the case of solar, tons of debate surrounds ESG. However, there is little argument now that ENPH and...

Heavy Lifting: But is it Natty?
Both Apple and Intel are surging higher after earnings this morning which is, clearly, more than offsetting weakness in shares of AMZN. Beyond that, AAPL and INTC are housed in both the Dow as well as the QQQ ETF, leading a double-whammy of the indices painting much higher. Of course, those two heavyweights are doing a ton of heavy lifting....
