Stocks Putting up Good Fight against Stiff Headwinds
While stocks have made a nice comeback from a crucial technical test of the 200-day moving average, there are some clouds forming on the horizon that I see as potential obstacles to clear for the market to rally above the prior highs. A lot of attention is being given to the U.S.-China trade talks, the […]
Bullish Week for Stocks Faces Unresolved Market Risks
It has been a good week for stocks and an even better week for investors to harvest profits following a six-day rally that saw the market hold a key technical level, invite fresh buying and spark the shorts to cover. All in all, the bullish camp is doing its level best to win back the […]
Buying Portfolio Insurance before the Storms Come
There is no shortage of hand-wringing in the current market landscape, especially with the S&P 500 retesting its closely followed 200-day moving average after breaking through it for a short while last week. Volatility is running high right now and its effect is showing in the market. Despite the most robust earnings season since 2008, […]
Riding out the Volatility with Dividends
The old saying of “it’s not a profit until you book it” rings true during this earnings season when stock gains are fleeting amid bullish earnings headlines.

Market Drives Ahead against Stiff Headwinds
Following last Friday night’s coordinated missile attack by a coalition of U.S., U.K. and French forces against Syrian chemical weapons facilities, there was a high level of consternation about whether the barrage of targeted airstrikes would escalate into a dangerous and wide-ranging military engagement between the Assad-led Syrian government backers (Russia, Iran, Hezbollah) and NATO […]
Markets Holding up under Tariff Tantrum Conditions
Last Friday’s negative trading session for stocks, which all but erased any gains for the week, left a burn mark on the ever-resilient bullish sentiment that has characterized the primary trend. Global trade matters greatly, and the prospect of a real and escalating trade war with China has made its way into the fabric of […]
FAANG Stocks Taken to the Woodshed in Tech-Led Market Correction
There is no way to put a positive spin on the carnage in what has been the torchbearer for the stock market during the past three years. While there are some major winning stocks in several sectors, the most successfully “crowded” trade has been to be long in what are known as the FAANG stocks, consisting […]
First FOMC Meeting for Fed Chairman Powell Ends Well
Fed Chairman Jerome Powell handled his first Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting like a real pro. The newly elected head of the Federal Reserve projected a calm, informed and experienced voice at his first press conference discussing the FOMC’s policy decision, and he also orchestrated unanimity among the FOMC’s members. While he made a […]
