Two More Indicators Turn Green
I got a late start this morning so I'll get right to it. On this fine Thursday morning, it looks like global markets are (a) digesting the Fed statement, which appears to have been not quite as hawkish as had been feared, (b) waiting on the BOJ decision, and (c) dealing with another onsla…
Waiting on the Fed
The recent price action in the stock market reminds us that the dog days of summer are upon us. A time when most traders are dealing with family vacations and/or focusing on keeping that little white ball in the short grass. And given that recent joyride to the upside has created a pretty…
A Reason To Favor The Bulls
Although the S&P 500 remains 8.4% higher than the post-BREXIT panic low seen on June 27, there can be little arguing the fact that the rally has stalled out over the last week or so. After blasting 8.2% in just 12 trading session, both the Dow and S&P have moved mostly sideways si…

Time To Take a Break, But...
After making new highs in five of the last six sessions, many analysts believe that it is time for the bulls to take a break. After all, the S&P 500 has (a) finished green for thirteen of the last sixteen days, (b) moved to new all-time highs, and (c) gained 8.3% in the process. Let's…
A Good Overbought Condition
Good morning and welcome back. Since I like to start with something positive whenever possible, let me just say that it is a glorious summer morning here in Evergreen, Colorado! It's also a big week for the markets as earnings season moves into high gear, the Republican National Conventio…
Following in Their Footsteps
Following in Their Footsteps
After a brief respite in the global market selling pressure, the bears have re-emerged this morning and are out in full force. European markets are broadly lower, while Asian markets closed lower across the board. We knew the situation in China wasn'…
