Good Friday afternoon all. Before we get to the markets, which has both a crash scenario along with some of their most oversold levels we’ve ever seen, we’re beginning this morning with “Team Lockstep”. Here’s todays VRA VidCast covering this topic:
Read MoreGood Thursday afternoon all. There’s been a repeating pattern over the last 18 months that’s been as reliable as clockwork; once the broad market indexes hit extreme overbought on our VRA short-term momentum oscillators (stochastics) the markets then reverse lower.
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. Yesterdays action at the open was solid, only to be met by a warning from JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon that the US economy was potentially facing a “hurricane” going forward. When Dimon speaks investors listen and the big open turned into big losses by midday.
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. Right at 3 months ago we began our planning for the Biden bear market and issuing our VRA Strategy Updates. We sold our VRA leveraged ETF holdings that focused on tech by selling TQQQ (3 x Nasdaq 100 ETF) and selling SOXL (3 x Semi ETF).
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. Multiple bases to cover this AM. Yesterdays disastrous trading (on the backs of Target/Walmart/Wall Street waking up to the fact that inflation is at least as high as it was some 40 years ago), had the feeling of a weight so heavy that we couldn’t even have a single mini-rally…
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. Quick note: we’re getting an increasing number of emails alerting us to the fact that you aren’t getting our VRA Letters and VRA Podcast Alerts. You know the drill; censorship comes in many forms. As always, please check your spam folder. Obviously, alert us.
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. As Tyler covered in detail on yesterdays VRA Investing Podcast (sign up for alerts @ vrainsider.com/podcast), something interesting could be brewing to restore our (short term) faith in the markets. Even as Nasdaq (-1.2%), on the back of the Netflix implosion was hit yesterday the internals actually showed improvement.
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. Don’t Forget: The markets are closed tomorrow for Good Friday. Two big developments: last night the AAII Investor Sentiment Survey came in at just 15.8% bulls, one of the 5–6 lowest readings on record. I’ve voted in this survey since the late 1980’s and yes, I voted bearish for this weeks survey.
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. We just put out a VRA Alert to our member’s that we wanted to share here. Is The Gold, Silver and Miner Massive Bull Market of 2003–2011 About to Repeat? To understand why gold/silver may double over the next 3–5 yrs, with the miners jumping 300% to 500% in price,
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. As we start trading today the VRA Portfolio is up 17.6% in 2022. That compares to losses of 10-14% in our broad markets. Folks, this feels like on of those years for our stocks. I remember this feeling, similar to the years we’ve put up 100-200% + net gains.
Read MoreEven as countries all over the world adopted elements of fascism (most all but Sweden, really), for those that still couldn’t see CV insanity as the “plandemic” that it is, after Canada’s invocation of the Emergency Act…full-on hard-core fascism from our northern neighbor…
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. The much awaited CPI data is out and its a hot number, with inflation hitting a 40 year high as the CPI posts a 7.5% annual gain in January. Honestly, don’t most of us look at this number and say “what do you mean it only rose 7.5% year over year…based on what I’m paying for stuff it feels much more….
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. Following another wild day in the markets, here’s what looks to matter most. The last 3 days have brought severe intraday weakness…Powell made sure of that yesterday…but on each of the 3 days the smart money hour was “bullish”.
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. A big about-face in the markets yesterday, as another weak smart money hour brought steady selling pressures, with each index finishing right at their lows of the day. Nasdaq has now fallen into correction territory, down 10.7%
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. The good news? Both the S&P 500 and Dow Jones hit (intraday) all-time highs yesterday. The bad news? It didn’t last long. Following the FOMC minutes, with news that several on the Fed say they want to have “multiple rate hikes,
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. Back to back excellent days, with strong smart money hours and market internals to match. In addition, tech/semis are leading the way, with seasonally bullish small caps charging higher. If you’re a market timer, these are the short term, heavily bullish signals you look for.
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. From +518 to -461 at the close, the Dow Jones had a near 1000 point reversal lower yesterday. An even larger percentage decline occurred in Nasdaq, which had a near 600 point swing.
Read MoreGood Friday morning all and hope everyone in the states had a great Thanksgiving. Half day of trading in the US today. We went to bed last night with Dow futures -300 on fears of a new CV variant out of South Africa (uh-huh) and we woke up to losses of -800.
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. Rather ugly day yesterday with a sell-off throughout the smart money hour into the close. And it was the 3rd day in a row with negative A/D for NYSE. It’s been a couple months since we’ve seen that. Weak internals across the board; 2:1 losses in both A/D and volume.
Read MoreGood Thursday morning all. Yesterdays trading…actually the last 2 days of trading…have served as an important reminder that until we break the pattern of market sell-offs/pauses that’s been in place from March (once reaching extreme OB on VRA System momentum oscillators), we must continue to respect this pattern.
