Looks like markets may be a bit over-bought to start the week. If you’d like a way-too-detailed discussion of what this means, this blog is for you.

It’s a Sign… Maybe

One of the challenges of technical analysis is confirming a change in trend. It’s easy to spot after it’s happened. But spotting a trend change while it’s happening is a calculated risk. The data may indicate something, but the future is not written. So essentially, it’s a fancy rationalization of the future, a.k.a. a guess. […]

The trend of all-time-high after all-time-high seems to be flattening significantly. Too early to call, but multiples have already started contracting.

Stimulus is Here. Now What?

March 15, 2021 /in /by

So the markets got what they thought they wanted: more stimulus. Now what? From a technical perspective, it’s unclear. While the S&P 500 set an all-time intra-day high last Thursday, the pricing pattern does not yet appear to be a significant break-out.

Markets have been on a wild ride for the past two weeks. The S&P 500 fell from its all-time highs down to its 50-day moving average, only to rally back to all-time highs again to close out last week. At this point, the momentum is still intact. So the trend continues: higher. As with all […]

Still Going

January 25, 2021 /in /by

Despite the give-back last Friday the S&P 500 managed to print another all-time high last week. So the trend toward 3900 continues. Now the only question is, will we actually see the stimulus?… IMPORTANT DISCLOSURE INFORMATION Please remember that past performance may not be indicative of future results. Different types of investments involve varying degrees […]
