Welcome back! Thanksgiving week is past us and now we can focus on finishing out 2018 strong.
We don't feel like the market is setting up for any type of major bounce or reversal here or any time soon. We also are cognizant of the fact that US...
During our family's feast this year I'll be reflecting on my gratitude to each and every one of our subscribers, and to my team here at All Star Charts. I could not ask for a more engaged audience and a more top-notch group...
I'm on the east coast this week for the Thanksgiving holiday so I came into the city to say hi to friends. Catherine Murray and I had a nice conversation on BNN Bloomberg about US Stocks, Interest Rates and what Credit Spreads are suggesting for...
On October 30th we got more constructive on Indian stocks and put out a massive post with stocks to buy. Given that many of these trades were counter-trend in nature, we...
We could not be more thrilled to see stocks selling off. There has been more than enough evidence since the beginning of October to suggest that a more neutral approach to markets and/or selling stocks short has been the best course of action. Passive...
While updating our Canadian Chartbooks this weekend, I noticed a few that stood out as offering well-defined opportunities where the reward/risk is skewed in our favor. This short post will...
There are still a lot of weak stocks out there that continue to show signs of worsening -- especially when they lag during every bounce attempt by the broader indexes. Goldman Sachs $GS is one of them. Goldman has been one of the stocks we've wanted...
When we want to see what the market is doing on a given day, we all have our list of the ticker symbols we punch in: $DJIA or $SPY or $QQQ. Some people are more global and look at things like Gold, Crude Oil or Interest Rates and countries like...
Momentum and breadth diverged slightly in the major indices and many global markets, leading to a short-term bounce that's been sold into so far. Today I want to look at sector breadth to...
We look at markets globally because that’s what they are, global markets. The weakness in stocks around the world throughout the first couple of quarters this year was a heads up that something was wrong. We did not see the rotation...
Ok, I'm on an airplane on my way to San Francisco to present at a conference and to hang with our boy JC, so please forgive the liberties I took with the title of this trade plan. Clearly I'm showing my age...
I learned a long time ago from one of my early mentors, "Don't Fight Papa Dow". In other words, this is the most important index in the world. When someone asks you what the market did today, they're wondering how the Dow Jones Industrial...
Until stock markets sound the "all clear" signal and we can get back to our regularly scheduled bull market, we have to operate with a different set of rules in order to protect our capital -- both money and mind. Corrective or Bear Markets require a...
Honestly, I never thought a uranium play was something that would ever come across my desk, but a week ago JC published a piece highlighting the uranium space as displaying bullish turnaround characteristics -- which offers a nice portfolio...
It's been quite a bounce in the markets since the end of October. And we expect to see many more such bounces in the days and weeks ahead as market participants battle to find equilibrium in a tape that has definitely been thrown off balance since...
