Good Friday morning all. Just a week ago we began warning about the VRA Investing System’s extreme overbought levels in our market leaders, the Nasdaq and Russell 2000. What followed was an almost immediate overbought sell-off that (as of yesterday) took the Nasdaq back to its 50 day…
Read MoreYesterday we highlighted the fact that the Russell 2000 has reached an overbought level that has occurred just twice in the last 2 years. Right on cue, the R2K sold off sharply, down 1.18%, leading the rest of the market lower (along with its co-leader, the Nasdaq).
Read MoreAs expected, the FED raised rates…we now have a 2% fed funds rate for the first time in a decade…they also signaled there may be 2 additional rate increases this year. The central bank’s updated “dot-plot”, a chart of the projections for interest rates of Fed members, should offer a clearer outline for how many rate hikes will be on the way.
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. Another big green day in US and global stock markets as bears capitulate, by covering their shorts, and then add to the already surging buyside volumes by then going long themselves. This is the nature of how a big move higher in the stock market occurs…
Read MoreGood Thurday Morning All. If you weren’t able to join us on the Wayne Root Show earlier this week, here’s the recorded NewsMax TV link, discussing China v US trade, the miracle that is #45 and a forward look at the US/global equity markets for the rest of this year, based on VRA Investing System readings.
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. It's finally happening. The broad market and key leadership sectors are breaking out of a downtrend. Bulls, as we expected, are starting to regain control of the narrative. The train is leaving the station. All aboard.
Read MoreYesterday’s late day selling pressure was interesting, as the Dj and S&P 500 closed .81% lower and Nasdaq .40% lower but the Russell 2000 (small caps) actually put in a positive .30%. But here’s what really caught our attention; the internals were actually flat on the day.
Read MoreA quick heads up; I’ll be on with the great Wayne Allyn Root tomorrow night at 7:30 PM EST (USA Radio- http://usaradio.com/). Please mark your calendars and join us. If my read on these markets is accurate, we’ll be talking about the strong close to the week for the markets, and yes, the likelihood that the lows are in place.
Read MoreThe VRA System was built to remove emotion from my investing. It was built to have us out of the markets in times of turmoil (or short) and in the market when the bull wants to run. We used the VRA System to book 150%+ in net gains from last September through January/February of this year,
Read MoreIt appears that the shorts have been trapped. They’re on the wrong side of the market and must now cover their shorts and go long. This is usually a process that plays out over weeks, but the process should provide a strong underpinning for US stock prices going forward.
Read MoreGood Friday (the 13th) all. Other than avoiding black cats, I have no superstitions for today. Instead, following yesterdays sharp move higher, DJ futures are ramping higher again this am, following dynamite earnings from JP Morgan and Citi, kicking off what should be the best quarter for US earnings in more than a decade. Possibly two.
Read MoreBy mid-afternoon yesterday, the DJ was +440. Excellent trading day, all around. 3–1 positive market internals across the board. Then the slide began…the DJ lost 400 points of those gains, finishing higher by just 50. The culprit? Special Counsel Mueller.
Read MoreFear and greed moves the markets, most certainly at extremes, and have we ever seen plenty of fear and greed over just the last few days. The MSM flipped from wall to wall coverage of “Russia Russia Russia” to “China China China”,
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. VRA Market Update. VRA System Shows 11/12 Screens Bullish As you’ve seen/experienced with me over the last week or so, my life can be a tortured existence. I live and breath the markets….and for those that do as well, life ain’t always easy.
Read MoreGood Friday morning all. Yesterdays 700+ point drop in the Dow Jones (-2.9%) and 2.5% decline in the S&P 500 caused both the Dow and S&P 500 to break through the “higher lows” that we have been discussing in our daily updates…a bullish technical pattern…
