Teasing the Bears

The market pulled back on all the indices today. It’s almost as if it is teasing the bears. It has done this stair stepping process higher for several weeks now.

But there may something a little different this time and I discuss it in tonight’s video. I also briefly look at Michael Kors (KORS) which was up 8%, Mosaic (MOS) which was down 8% and Netflix (NFLX) which was up 4% today.

After the market closed, Facebook (FB) reported earnings and the stock was up about 3%. FireEye (FEYE) on the other hand was trading down 14% along with Whole Foods Market (WFM) trading down 6% in after hours trading. Continue reading

Continues to Push

In tonight’s Weekday Market Wrap video I look at all of today’s action and check in on Germany and China. Gold continues to push higher. Three new trade ideas tonight on Celgene (CELG), Lululemon Athletica (LULU) and Tesoro (TSO).  Continue reading

Extremely Compressed

The stock market finished off its big rally week with an extremely compressed trading range on Friday. All the indices were showing this compression. In today’s Weekend Market Analysis video I talk about what this type of action might mean and when was the last time we were this extremely compressed.  You might be surprised. Continue reading
