One Of The Most Volatile Weeks Of The Year Starts Now
The Fed on Wednesday, PCE on Thursday and Amazon, Google and Microsoft earnings all hit this week. I walk through the ES levels I am watching if the market gets spooked, and why I am still bullish into the end of the year with light hedges on.
The Market Has To Cry Uncle First
Historically this is the worst week of the year, and it delivered. Next week has lots of catalysts, and there is a script I am looking for the market to follow. It’s all probabilities, so let’s review what bulls need to see to make it a good week.
Tech Is Bleeding And The Money Is Running Here
Tech got hit hard today, but SPX is still flat on the month, and I’m cautious, not bearish. I walk through the SPX and QQQ levels I’m watching for a reversal, Apple and Palantir holding up, Tesla and Meta after earnings, and why money is flowing into XLP.
Be VERY Careful With Semis Right Now
The S&P 500 is choppy, so I’m going where the follow-through is: the weak Russell 2000 and regional banks, plus weak financials in the Dow. I also walk through my relative strength matrix to find the leaders in energy and staples, and why I’m being very careful with semis right now. Index, sector, stock, every time.
SPCX Is Built For The Exponential Age Of AI
The market gapped down today, and we sold put credit spreads and an iron condor in the room. I break down why the dollar is the lever that matters right now and why the Dell and SanDisk pullbacks are just profit-taking. I also explain when I think Tesla and SpaceX merge.
Chips Just Bounced After The Worst Drop Since 2008
The semis just ended their worst decline since 2008, and I’m watching whether this bounce gets follow through or fades. I walk through the levels on the Nasdaq, SMH, NVDA, TSM, AMD and MRVL, plus why LRCX earnings on Wednesday could decide Thursday’s move.
Leopold 2.0
Bulls had it and got trapped at the highs. The dynamic is very similar to the Leopold Low; however, this time the places to hide are very limited. Bulls will likely need a surprise catalyst or simply a quick drop to lower support levels in order for a turn to develop. I am seeing energy in energy and will be looking to play USO long.
Money Is Fleeing Tech, Here’s Where It’s Going
The S&P 500 bounced Thursday, but I’m still cautious below the Volatility Trigger at $7760. With OPEX on Friday and tech earnings next week, I think the market’s personality is about to change. I walk through what I’m watching in Apple, Tesla, Lilly, Costco and Coke.
Don’t Get Wildly Bearish Yet | 5 Squeezes To Watch
The S&Ps fell about 86 points today, and Apple still closed green. Tonight I walk through Apple, Wayfair, Google, XLV and USO, five charts that are still holding up, and how I’d approach the squeeze heading into earnings.
META Could Be A $1,000 Stock A Year From Now
The market went nowhere ahead of CPI, but under the surface Meta set up a squeeze in its ideal formation, and the last one doubled the stock. I also cover Apple, our Dell fill, and why the dollar is the biggest thing standing between this market and higher prices.
