Market Overview
Investors shook off early nervousness over higher jobless claims and bulls led the markets rally throughout the day. Treasury yields, the US Dollar and commodity prices all supported Technology as the leading sector of the day, carrying the Nasdaq to the leading index of the day.
The Nasdaq closed with a +1.03% gain on higher volume. The 99% closing range resulted from a 45% green body at the top of the candle which opened with a gap above yesterday's close. The lower wick was formed in the morning, but the index quickly erased the dip with gains into the afternoon that ended with a rally at close. There were three advancing stocks for every declining stock.
The Russell 2000 (RUT) rallied after a few days of declines and ended the day with a +0.88% gain. The S&P 500 advanced +0.42% and the Dow Jones Industrial average (DJI) closed with a +0.17% gain.
The VIX volatility index declined -1.22% and is now well within the pre-pandemic range of highs and lows.
Technology (XLK +1.44%) and Consumer Discretionary (XLY +0.47%) were top sectors for the day. Utilities (XLU -0.08%) opened with gains in the morning but faded to near the bottom of the list by the end of the day. Real Estate (XLRE -0.49%) and Energy (XLE -1.30%) were the worst performing sectors of the day.

Economic Indicators
The US Dollar (DXY) declined -0.38% continues to retreat from a pivot high at the end of March.
The US 30y treasury bond and 10y and 2y note yields all declined. The yield curve continued its trend of flattening.
Both High Yield Corporate Bond (HYG) and Investment Grade Corporate Bond (LQD) prices both advanced.
Silver (SILVER) and Gold (GOLD) both advanced. Crude Oil (CRUDEOIL1!) declined just slightly. Timber (WOOD) advanced. Copper (COPPER1!) advanced while Aluminum (ALI1!) declined. All are showing strong demand and bullish for the economic recovery.

Investor Sentiment
The put/call ratio ended the day at 0.592. The put/call ratio (PCCE) is a contrarian indicator that shows overly bullish or overly bearish investor behavior. The 0.7 level is considered normal. As it approaches 0.60 (overly bullish) and below, watch for a possible pullback in the market.
The CNN Fear & Greed index is remained about the same, on the greed side.

Market Leaders
All four big mega-caps gained for another day. Apple (AAPL) and Microsoft (MSFT) climbed +1.92% and +1.34%, helping carry the indexes into close. Amazon (AMZN) and Alphabet (GOOGL) gained +0.61% and +0.51%, but closed in the lower half of the intraday range. We are still anticipating the crossover of the 21d EMA over the 50d MA for Apple and Amazon which will signal a confident uptrend. Microsoft and Alphabet have already met that milestone.
PayPal (PYPL +3.48%), Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM +2.95%), ASML Holding (ASML +2.13%), Tesla (TSLA +1.91%) were at the top of the mega-cap list. Big communications companies Verizon (VZ) and AT&T (T) joined Nike (NIKE) at the bottom of the list, all with over 2% declines.
Today was much better for growth stocks than the previous day, with the majority of growth in the daily update list having gains. UP Fintech (TIGR), GrowGeneration (GRWG), FUTU Holdings (FUTU) topped the list with over 10% gains each. Draft Kings (DKNG) and Dr Horton (DHI) were at the bottom of the list.

Trends, Support and Resistance
The index is nearing the 14,000 support/resistance area. A breakthrough of that line will be a confidence booster on the way to new all-time highs for the Nasdaq.
The five-day trend line points to a +1.16% gain on Friday. The one-day trend line points to a small gain of +0.16%.
The trend line from the 3/5 low points to a -1.85% loss.

Wrap-up
Everything lined up nicely for big tech and growth stocks today. Yields dropped back as the yield curve continues to flatten. The US dollar weakened, benefiting big multinational companies. Commodities show high demand indicating economic activity picking back up.
Eyes will be on the produce price index data tomorrow before market opens. Higher prices would indicate more demand for products as a result of increased spending, but it may also make investors nervous about inflation. Still, Jerome Powell held firm today that inflation was unlikely, so investors will have to balance their worries with assurances from the Fed that changes in economic policy are still long off in the future. Don't fight the fed.
The resurgence of growth stocks continues to accelerate relative to value stocks. The gains were broad across the category today. Many of the charts for growth have a long way to go to get past overhead supply and reach new all-time highs. Value stocks have leveled off for the past few weeks, could be basing and may have some more growth of their own.

Market Overview
There was caution in the market on Tuesday after several days of record setting gains. Investors are monitoring the progress of infrastructure plans and the potential for new taxes. At the same time, the pandemic keeps popping up new fears as Canada declares a very serious third wave.
The Nasdaq closed with a small -0.05% loss, after climbing 0.5% in the morning. The closing range of 24% is above a thin 16% body signaling indecision. The long upper wick was formed from a morning rally that sold off in the afternoon. Still, the index seemed to have support around the 13,700 area, testing the area twice and settling just below the line at the close. There were 3 declining stocks for every 2 advancing stocks.
The S&P 500 closed the day with a -0.10% after setting another all-time high in the morning. The Dow Jones Industrial average (DJI) and Russell 2000 (RUT) both delivered inside days (lower high, higher low) with -0.29% and -0.25% declines.
The VIX volatility index advanced +1.17%.
The sectors show a clear shift in investor sentiment about an hour after open. Energy was leading the sector list in the morning before a downgrade of Chevron by Goldman Sachs. The downgrade doesn't explain it all as Exxon Mobil and oil prices also came down from morning highs.
The other signal of investor nervousness was the shift of Utilities (XLU) from the bottom sector in the morning to the top sector at close. The only other sector that seemed to react to the change in sentiment was Financials (XLF) likely as investors bought up treasuries and brought long term yields down.
Utilities (XLU) and Consumer Discretionary (XLY) ended the day at the top sector list. Health Services (XLV) and Technology (XLK) ended the day at the bottom.

Economic Indicators
The US Dollar (DXY) declined -0.29% but did not seem to be impacted by the morning change in sentiment.
The US 30y treasury bond and 10y note yields both declined for the day while 2y note yields rose. The yield curve continues to flatten.
High Yield Corporate Bond (HYG) and Investment Grade Corporate Bond (LQD) prices advanced and continue in an uptrend.
Silver (SILVER) and Gold (GOLD) both advanced. Crude Oil (CRUDEOIL1!) ended the day with gains, despite pulling back from morning highs. Timber (WOOD) advanced. Copper (COPPER1!) declined while Aluminum (ALI1!) advanced. All are still showing strong demand.

Market Leaders
Among the big four mega-caps, only Apple (AAPL) ended the day with gains. However the declines across the other three were not enough to invalidate breakouts. With the big gains over the previous three sessions, there should be no surprise for prices to pause here. Microsoft (MSFT), Amazon (AMZN) and Alphabet (GOOGL) are all trading above both key moving average lines (the 21d EMA and 50d MA). Apple hit resistance at the 50d MA and closed below the line.
Alibaba (BABA), Nike (NIKE) and AT&T (T) were some of the top mega-cap gainers for the day. At the bottom were Intel (INTC), United Health (UNH), Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM) and ASML Holding (ASML).
Most of the growth stocks in the daily update list had gains for the day. Top winners were ROKU (ROKU), UP Fintech (TIGR), Ehang Holdings (EH) and DataDog (DDOG). Investors still seem a bit uncertain which of these growth names will benefit with the economic recovery as they still chop back and forth regularly. For example Zynga (ZNGA) was near the top of the list yesterday, and at the bottom of the list today. DataDog at the bottom of the list yesterday and near the top today.

There will be a few key updates on Wednesday morning. First employment data for March will be updated.

There are no notable earnings reports for Wednesday for the daily update.
-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-
Trends, Support and Resistance
The index still has support in the 13,600-13,700 area and stayed above it after two tests today.
The five-day trend line points to a +2.10% gain on Wednesday. The one-day trend line is nearly flat and points to a sideways move tomorrow.
The trend line from the 3/5 low points to a -1.90% loss, which is just above the 50d MA.
-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-
Wrap-up
Investors showed some nervousness today mid-morning, changing momentum in the market for several sectors. Despite the switch in sentiment, key areas of support held and we could view the day's result as a pause during a fairly aggressive uptrend the past few days.
Still, the candle itself has that appearance of a shooting star that signals the end of an uptrend. So it could be things need to move sideways a bit here or even pull back once more before proceeding. With the overall economic situation continuing to approve, more upside seems in the future, but only the market can tell us when it will happen.

Market Overview
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Investors got what they needed to hear from the fed's Jerome Powell. Interest rates will remain untouched and there will be no tapering of bond buying despite a big upgrade in the fed's outlook on the economy. The change in investor sentiment mid-day was clear as the indexes made a rally.
The Nasdaq closed with a +0.4% gain after dipping below the 50d MA and 21d EMA in the morning. The dip came as yields soared and investors worried about what was to come from the Fed meeting. After rallying in the afternoon, the index closed on slightly higher volume with a 78% closing range. The short upper wick above a 58% green body was formed from a small pullback just before close. There were about equal number of advancing and declining stocks.
All indexes ended the day positive with the S&P 500 (SPX) gaining +0.29% and the Dow Jones Industrial (DJI) gaining +0.58%. The Russell 2000 was the top performing index for the day with a +0.73% gain.
The VIX volatility index declined another -2.83% and is at its lowest point since February 2020. It is still above levels before the market crash of 2020.
The improved outlook from the Fed had an impact across several sectors. Consumer Discretionary (XLY +1.40%) and Industrials (XLI +1.15%) were top. The cyclical sectors recovered from losses earlier in the week. Health (XLV -0.36%) and Utilities (XLU -1.63%) were bottom.
-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-
Economic Indicators
The US Dollar (DXY) gained -0.46%. The Fed expects inflation to reach around 2.2% which will weaken the dollar in the short term.
The US 30y and 10y treasury bond yields rose for the day, but pulled back from the big increases in the morning. The US 2y treasury bond yield dropped for the day.
High Yield Corporate Bonds (HYG) and Investment Grade Corporate Bond (LQD) both rose today.
Silver (SILVER) and Gold (GOLD) advanced. Crude Oil (CRUDEOIL1!) declined. Timber (WOOD) advanced. Copper (COPPER1!) and Aluminum (ALI1!) advanced. Most commodities are bullish on the improved economic outlook from the fed.
-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-
Investor Sentiment
The put/call ratio is at 0.605. The put/call ratio (PCCE) is a contrarian indicator that shows overly bullish or overly bearish investor behavior. The 0.7 level is considered normal. As it approaches 0.60 (overly bullish) and below, watch for a possible pullback in the market.
The CNN Fear & Greed index is moving back toward neutral.

Trends, Support and Resistance
The index was able to close above the 50d MA showing some support at that level.
The one-day trend line points to a +1.57% gain tomorrow. The trend line from the 3/5 bottom points to a +1.13% gain.
The five-day trends line points to a -0.26% loss.
-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-
Wrap-up
The market and the fed have been a bit at odds for the past month. Today the fed won. They gave us a firm stance on interest rates and bond buying while acknowledging the improved outlook for growth in the economy this year. That didn't provide any room for the market to argue. Don't fight the fed.
That can put some more steam into the market rally. Still, many sectors have taken quite a beating in the charts this past few weeks and there is still a ways to go to recover prices. Until then, expect those sectors, stocks and indexes to meet with resistance as overhead supply needs to be shaken out before new highs can be made.

Bad: Could not hold short rally in morning, selling the rest of afternoon
Highs/Lows: Higher high, higher low
Candle: Short upper wick over a thick red body, no lower wick
Advance/Decline: More than one declining stock for every advancing stock
Indexes: SPX (-0.54%), DJI (+0.97%), RUT (+0.49%), VIX (+3.28%)

The rotation continues. It's not often that a rotation is so clearly seen, with the Dow Jones ending the day up nearly 1% and the Nasdaq ending the day down 2.41%. Nine sectors outperformed the broader S&P 500 index, while the other two sectors lost enough to bring down the index for a loss by the end of the day.
The Nasdaq closed the day with a -2.41% loss on lower volume. The closing range of 2% followed an afternoon of selling that formed the 73% red body underneath a small upper wick from the short morning rally. There were more declining stocks than advancing stocks.

Expectation: Sideways or Higher
The rotation reverses. Today saw a reversal of the past several days rotation as money flooded back into big tech, consumer discretionary, and growth stocks. Treasury bond yields seemed to stabilize a bit allowing investors to turn their eyes on the stimulus and the impact it will have on performance in the near term.
The Nasdaq closed with +3.69% gain on higher volume. The closing range of 72% came after some selling in the final hour of trading, forming the upper wick. The green body covers 56% of the candle and represents a day that was dominated by the bulls. There were two advancing stocks for every declining stock.

Facts: -0.04%, Volume lower, Closing range: 14%, Body: 69%
Good: Higher high, higher low, support above 13,000
Bad: Rejection off 21d EMA in morning led to selling and close near low
Highs/Lows: Higher high, higher low
Candle: Thick red body with small upper and lower wicks, low closing range
Advance/Decline: More advancing stocks than declining stocks
Indexes: SPX (+0.60%), DJI (+1.46%), RUT (+1.81%), VIX (-6.12%)
Sectors: Energy (XLE +2.53%) and Financials (XLF +2.04%) were back on top. Technology (XLK -0.40%) was bottom.
Expectation: Sideways or Lower
The rotation settles. There was still signs of rotation in the market today, with the sector list flipping once again. But the effect is much more subdued than the past week. The passing of the stimulus has investors eyes wide open while they sent the Dow Jones Industrial to all-time highs.
The Nasdaq was not able to benefit from the enthusiasm as it declined -0.04%. A sideways move, but still a day marked by selling after a morning gap-up. The closing range of 14% is underneath a thick red body of 69% and slightly longer upper wick formed just after the market opened. There were more advancing stocks than declining stocks, however volume on declining stocks was higher.

Facts: +2.52%, Volume lower, Closing range: 81%, Body: 67%
Good: Another higher high and higher low, back above 21d EMA and 50d MA
Bad: Not much, resistance at 13,400
Highs/Lows: Higher high, higher low
Candle: Thick red body with small upper and lower wicks, low closing range
Advance/Decline: Almost three advancing stocks for every declining stock
Indexes: SPX (+1.04%), DJI (+0.58%), RUT (+2.31%), VIX (-2.88%)
Sectors: Technology (XLK +2.14%) and Communications (XLC +1.89%) were top. Utilities (XLU -0.26%) and Financials (XLF -0.29%) were bottom.
Expectation: Sideways or Higher
The back and forth continues as the Nasdaq and technology stocks rise again. The sector list has flipped back and forth the last several days as investors rotate in and out of big tech and growth stocks. Today, the market rallied as jobs reports showed positive gains in the labor market and the stimulus is proceeding to Biden's signature. Technology was back on top while Financials moved to the bottom.
The Nasdaq closed with a +2.52% gain on lower volume. The 67% green body was formed in the morning as the index quickly rose to intraday highs around 13,400 and stayed there the rest of the day. The short upper wick is above an 81% closing range. There were almost three advancing stocks for every declining stock.

Friday, March 12, 2021
Facts: -0.59%, Volume lower, Closing range: 97%, Body: 58%
Good: Bulls bought back the morning lows to bring index back above 21d EMA
Bad: Lower high and lower low
Highs/Lows: Lower high, lower low
Candle: Green body above a lower wick with very small upper wick
Advance/Decline: About even advancing and declining stocks
Indexes: SPX (+0.10%), DJI (+0.90%), RUT (+0.61%), VIX (-5.57%)
Sectors: Real Estate (XLRE +1.72%) and Utilities (XLU +1.35%) were top. Communications (XLC -0.28%) and Technology (XLK -0.72%) were bottom.
Expectation: Sideways or Higher
Are you dizzy yet? This rotation just won't end. Every day this week the Technology sector flipped from the bottom of the sector list to the top and then the next day to the bottom. Yesterday it was at the top. Today it's back at the bottom. As long term bond yields are reaching for pre-pandemic highs, investors are still trying to determine the impact on valuations of big tech and growth stocks.
The Nasdaq closed the week with a green candle, but ended the day with a -0.59% decline. Volume was lower but the bulls bought up a morning dip to bring the index back above the 21d EMA in the afternoon. A closing range of 97% means a very small upper wick. The longer lower wick rests underneath a 58% green body. There were about the same number of advancing and declining stocks.

The Meaning of Life (View on the Week)
It was a wild week of rotation instigated by volatility in the treasury bond markets. Economists and investors weighed the impact of stimulus on inflation, currencies, bonds and equities. The outcomes could have opposite effects on different sectors. Technology and Communications, that have growth mega-caps, could be negatively impacted by higher yields, raising the costs of borrowing money to drive growth. Financials could benefit from the higher yields driving interest rates and additional revenue on both mortgages and commercial borrowing.
The winners from the stimulus bill will be industrials and materials as the economy returns to pre-pandemic levels and these sectors benefit. The market made that clear as the Dow Jones Industrial gained 1% on Monday while the Nasdaq declined -2.41%. Utilities, Industrials and Materials were top sectors along with Financials. All cyclicals, but as the first three would remain steady throughout the week, Financials was up and down depending on bond performance.
But it also seemed no one was quite ready to give up on big tech and growth stocks. Tuesday was "buy the dip" day, sending the Technology sector back to the top of the list. Growth companies like Tesla (TSLA) gained 20%, rebounding off recent lows. The four big mega-caps all closed the day with gains. Financials and Energy moved to the bottom of the sector list. The 3y note auction brought some optimism back to the bond market, bringing yields back down from recent gains.
The 10y auction on Wednesday also brought some confidence back to the bonds market. Yields on treasury bonds pulled back a little. But even as yields came down, the yield curve steepened. A steep yield curve forecasts higher interest rates and could mean other monetary policy changes from the Fed. That's where the fear is focused. Technology moved back to the bottom of the sector list on Wednesday.
A quick refresh on the yield curve. The yield of a treasury bond can be viewed as the level of risk investors see in the bond. Shorter term bonds are paid back quickly and therefore investors usually assign lower risk and therefore require lower yields. Longer term bonds are viewed with higher risk, there's more time between now and the maturity date of the bond for something happening that will impact the value, so yields are higher. Risk/reward.
The yield curve is a plotting of the interest rates from short term to long term.
When the yield curve is normal, there should be an upward sloping curve. From the shortest term bonds to the middle term, yields will accelerate. As you move past the middle, the longer the maturity date moves out the difference in yields level off. An inverted yield curve shows the opposite and means that there is much more risk in the short term than the long term, so yields are higher on short term bonds.
What we are seeing this week is normal in that short term yields are lower than long term, but the curve is unusually steep. It's at its steepest slope since 2015/16. Investors see short term bonds as much safer than long term bonds, likely on the optimism of the short term economic recovery this year. Longer term, investors are more uncertain. What will happen to the dollar? When will the fed stop its easy money policy? So there is less demand for long term bonds, investors selling, bond prices drop, and yields go up.
If the fed wants to get revenues from selling 10y, 20y, 30y bonds, what do they need to do? They need to entice bond investors by covering the risk with greater reward. They need to either stop injecting money into the economy which is devaluing the dollar (and making long term bonds risky), increase purchases of longer term bonds to control the yield curve, or they need to raise interest rates. Regardless of comments from the fed that they are not concerned with the increasing yields, it has investors spooked, sending them back and forth between fear and greed.
Technology was back on top on Thursday. Long term yields were higher, but seemed under control. Friday Technology was back to the bottom, but after a morning dip, buyers brought the Nasdaq back up to close near an intraday high. Despite the yield curve steepening again with the 30y and 10y yields hitting their highest since early 2020, inflation numbers and consumer sentiment were better than expected. That was enough to give bullish investors optimism and end the week with the DJI and RUT at all time-highs and the SPX knocking on the door.
Despite all the turmoil, the Nasdaq closed the week with a +3.09% gain on slightly lower volume. The closing range of 86% is far better than the previous weeks. The index had a higher low but a lower high, making this an inside week.
I've redrawn the channel from the March bottom. If the index can stay in this channel, then it would seem the economic outlook has been priced into big tech and growth stocks, and the index can start to follow along with the gains we've seen in the Dow Jones Industrial and Russell 2000.
The S&P 500 (SPX) advanced +2.64%. The Dow Jones Industrial average (DJI) gained 4.07%. The Russell 2000 (RUT) gained 7.32% for the week.
The VIX volatility index closed the week with a -16.10% decline.
It was a wild week for the sectors as investors rotated in and out of Technology and Communications stocks. All sectors ended the week with gains.
Consumer Discretionary ( XLY ) was the big winner. Large stimulus checks will be delivered soon that are expected to be poured into the economy via consumer spending on both needs and wants.
Technology ( XLK ) and Communications ( XLC ) spent Monday at the bottom of the sector list, Tuesday at the top, Wednesday at the bottom, Thursday at the top, and Friday at the bottom. In the end, the two sectors landed just behind the SPX in performance, but did have gains for the day.
Financials ( XLF ) was also one to watch. It flipped back and forth as investors followed closely what was happening in the bond markets. The increase in yields could be a boon for Financials. The increased yields would have the opposite impact on big technology and communications companies and smaller growth companies. As yields went back and forth, so did the performance of these sectors.
Energy ( XLE ) ended the week as the worst sector. Although it had a big gain on Wednesday, it wasn't enough to cover the losses on Monday and Tuesday.
Utilities ( XLU ) and Real Estate ( XLRE ) did not have any big days, but were on a steady rise throughout the week. They ended the week in 2nd and 3rd place on the list. The two sectors are often used as defensive plays.
Steep yield curve. You can see the spread between the US 10y and 2y treasury bond yields in the top chart, also marked with a green horizontal line so you can see just how long since the spread has been that wide. Also note that US 30y and 10y yields are back to pre-pandemic levels. Inflation and the possibility of a weakening US dollar means long term bonds are out of vogue.
High Yields Corporate Bonds (HYG) and Investment Grade (LQD) corporate bond prices both declined for the week. The spread between corporate bonds and short term treasury bonds remain about the same.
The US Dollar (DXY) pulled back from the recent gains, declining -0.32% for the week.
Silver (SILVER) and Gold (GOLD) both advanced for the week.
Crude Oil Futures (CRUDEOIL1!) declined just slightly from its highest point since 2018.
Timber (WOOD) advanced and is trading at all-time highs. Copper (COPPER1!) and Aluminum (ALI1!) both declined but are still in upward trending channels.

The Big Four Mega-caps
The four big mega-caps had mixed results for the week. Microsoft (MSFT) and Amazon (AMZN) closed the week with +1.79% and 2.97% gains. Amazon likely got a boost from the stimulus checks expected to increase consumer spending while people are still nervous to shop at brick-and-mortar stores. Apple (AAPL) lost -0.32% for the week. Alphabet (GOOGL) was down-2.24%. Microsoft and Alphabet are trading above 10w and 40w moving average lines. Apple is trading below the 10w MA line and Amazon is trading below both the 10w and 40w moving average liens.
-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-
The Four Recovery Stocks
I picked four recovery stocks to track against the indexes and other indicators in this report. This week all four had gains. Carnival Cruise Lines (CCL) gained over 9% this week. Delta Airlines (DAL) advanced +7.83%. Marriott International (MAR) gained +2.23%. Exxon Mobil gained +1.71%.
-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-
Investor Sentiment
The put/call ratio (PCCE) ended the week at 0.606, showing investors getting a little more bullish. A contrarian indicator, when the put/call ratio is below 0.7, it signals overly bullish sentiment which typically proceeds a pullback in the market.
The CNN Fear & Greed index moved toward the greed side.
The surprise was seeing the NAAIM exposure index go down to 0.48. That's a fairly low level and indicates nervousness from institutional investors. If exposure to equities by money managers is below 50%, then what is driving prices higher?
-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-
The Week Ahead
Monday's TIC Net Long-Term Transactions data will give an idea of how much investor money is flowing in and our of US markets. More inflows means foreign investors are buying US equities and as a proxy, buying the US dollar to buy those equities. On the other side, US investors may be buying more foreign equities, using those markets currencies.
Retail Sales data will be released Tuesday before market open. Industrial Production data will also be released, both indicating the pace at which economic activity is recovering.
On Wednesday, we'll get news on Building Permits and Housing Starts before the market opens. After the opening bell, Crude Oil Inventories will be released. In the afternoon, FOMC economic projections and interest rate projections will be released.
The weekly initial jobless claims data will be released on Thursday. Manufacturing data will also be released that will provide insight into how manufacturing is recovering to meet demand.
Monday's earning reports will include a couple interesting small-caps: Vuzix (VUZI) and Desktop Metal (DM).
Volkswagen (VWAGY) will report on Tuesday. In addition, FUTU Holdings (FUTU), Coupa Software (COUP), Jabil Circuit (JBL), Eastman Kodak (KODK) will report.
Wednesday will include Pinduoduo (PDD), BMW ADR (BMWYY), Cintas (CTAS), Five Below (FIVE).
On Thursday, Nike (NIKE), Accenture (ACN), FedEx (FDX), Dollar General (DG), Weibo Corp (WB), Utz Brands (UTZ) will report.
Be sure to check your portfolio for upcoming earnings reports.
-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-
The Bullish Side
Did you see the Dow Jones Industrial average index? Six consecutive days of gains to set a new all-time high to close the week! The stimulus, passed through congress and signed by President Biden, is a huge amount of support to the economic recovery. Industrial stocks and small-caps are going to lead the charge and eventually the economics will be priced into big tech and growth stocks and they will join the rally.
Never fight the fed. The Fed is continuing easy monetary policy that is fueling massive liquidity in the market.
Many weekly charts look good. It's always important to take a step back and look beyond the daily turmoil.
-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-
The Bearish Side
Treasury bonds continue to have unusual volatility. Bond investors don't like volatility. Note only does it make it harder to use in hedging strategies, but popular trading strategies using multiple maturities of bonds become more difficult.
The steepening curve Is an indicator of future interest rate increases, that will continue to worry equity investors away from the tech mega-caps and growth stocks. That will have an overweight influence on indexes and impact investor sentiment.
The NAAIM exposure index doesn't represent all institutional investors, but it is an indicator of professional portfolio managers sentiment toward the market. At less than 50% exposure, one must question what is driving prices higher. It could be retail traders and passive indexation that is driving the current rally. That may be a recipe for disaster.
-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-
Key Nasdaq Levels to Watch
Although the broader market is clearly not in correction, the Nasdaq is still lagging behind the other indexes. To build confidence in big tech and growth stocks traded on the Nasdaq, some gains on higher volume is required. If key levels on the downside breakdown, we can expect the big players in the Nasdaq to also pull down the other indexes.
On the positive side:
The Nasdaq closed above the 21d EMA on Friday, but below the 50d MA. That's the first key level to pass for next week. That level is at 13,367.48.
Last week's high is at 13,601.33. This week could not make a new high, so having the index make that milestone next week will be important.
14,000 will be the next area of resistance.
The all-time high is at 14,175.12. That might be a stretch to get there this week, but keep it in our sites.
On the downside, there are several key levels to raise caution flags:
Stay above the 21d EMA which is a currently at 13,290.28.
The 10d MA is at 13,105.93. Going below this line will be a red flag.
If the index has a pull back, the 13,000 is a support area that must hold.
12,599.23 is the low from this week. Stay above that level to make a higher low.
The next support area is 12,500-12,550.
12,397.05 is the current bottom of the correction on the Nasdaq.
-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-
Wrap-up
This was a week that reminded us to take a step back and look at the weekly charts. The Nasdaq chopped back and forth, that seems like losses. But on the weekly chart, the index had a good gain with a great closing range.
At the same time, the choppiness may continue into the coming week and cause investors to get overly nervous. Although the other major indexes are performing well, eventually the big players in the Nasdaq could pull down those indexes as well.
It's important to avoid predictions. Instead, set some expectations for what you might think will happen. Watch those key levels in the Nasdaq, and follow the price action of the index and your favorite stocks. Keep stop losses up to date to protect from a sudden turn to the downside. But lets hope for upside.
The report is a bit brief this week since I'm heading out to vacation. I hope you have a great week ahead! I'll be trading from the beach. :)
Good luck, stay healthy and trade safe!

The markets topped a bullish week with one more gain on Friday. Every day this week produced a higher high and a higher low on the Nasdaq. The broad market rally continued despite disappointing employment data as investors hope the data will accelerate the stimulus bill through congress.

Economic Indicators
The US Dollar (DXY) declined -0.53% for the day, possibly due to the disappointing economic data. The US 30y and 10y treasury bond yields rose while the US 2y declined sharply. The yield curve continues to steepen since the beginning of the year. High Yield Corporate Bond (HYG) prices rose for another day.
Silver (SILVER) and Gold (GOLD) both advanced for the day. Crude Oil (CRUDEOIL1!) futures continued to climb higher. Timber (WOOD), Copper (COPPER1!), and Aluminum (ALI1!) all advanced.
-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-
Investor Sentiment
The put/call ratio declined to 0.578. The put/call ratio (PCCE) is a contrarian indicator that shows overly bullish or overly bearish investor behavior. The 0.7 level is considered normal. As it approaches 0.60 (overly bullish) and below, watch for a possible pullback in the market.
-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-
Market Leaders
Alphabet (GOOGL) added to recent gains with a +1.71% advanced. Amazon (AMZN) was up +0.63% as the market moves past this week's news. Microsoft (MSFT) had a small gain of +0.08% as the stock consolidates a bit on lower volume. Apple (AAPL) declined -0.46%. All four are trading above the key moving average lines, but below their all-time highs.
Abbott Laboratories (ABT) was the leading mega-cap of the day with a +3.58% gain. ABT was following by Exxon Mobil (XOM +3.35%), Nike (NIKE +3.19%) and Toyota Motor (TM +1.92%).

-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-=x=-
Trends, Support and Resistance
The five-day trend line points to a +1.12% gain for Monday. The one-day trend is a bit under that line and points to a +0.54% gain.
The long-term trend line from the 10/30 bottom points to a small -0.58% pullback.
If there is further downside, the 21d EMA line offers an area of support and is -3.54% below Friday's close. The 13,000 level also seems to be an area of support. The index held the 12,550 area recently. If it passes that area, the next support area is 12,250.

SPONF Enters Potential $23.7 Billion Dollar Market
SPONF And Volunteer Botanicals Enter Into Collaboration To Develop Proprietary Brand Of Beauty And Wellness CBG Products
Industry Reports Project Wellness And Beauty Market To Reach $23.7 Billion By 2023*
Two weeks ago, SPONF announced that It has entered into collaboration with Volunteer Botanicals, LLC, a Tennessee-based company focused on delivering fully customized, botanical-based products for product creators and medical practitioners, to create a proprietary new branded line of products for the company.
Volunteer is also the source for the two recently introduced products, namely a line of flavored, chewable tablets delivering a 20mg dose of CBG and a CBG sublingual dissolving tablet that delivers 10mg in a very small 6mm size. These products are marketed under the marketing management agreement with GO Nutraceutical's branded line of "Cannabis 2.0" products.
This new line is the company's entrance into beauty markets - "Where Wellness meets Beauty". SPO will create a new proprietary brand under a wholly-owned subsidiary to market the as of yet unnamed brand, utilizing the formulations delivered by Volunteer.
The company has charged Charles Harbison to oversee this subsidiary. He is a full-time employee of the company and is its Executive in charge of Brand Management. He previously launched his own luxury brand HARBISON, which, since its launch, garnered the attention of the fashion world including iconic public figures, celebrity stylists, power influencers, and editors. He dressed luminaries like Beyonce and Michelle Obama in his designs. Both his collection and his creative talent have been featured across major fashion media outlets including Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, WWD, Refinery 29, and Elle. Harbison has also consulted for a range of top brands including Emanuel Ungaro, Michael Kors, Cult Gaia, and Nicholas the Label.
Mr. Harbison said: "Through my long-standing career in building fashion brands both domestically and internationally, I have found customers today are most excited about the infusion of health, wellness, and eco-responsibility into the beauty and fashion sectors. We will build a beauty product assortment that reflects this current sentiment, aligning the health intentions of today's customer with the naturally derived healing nature of CBG and the culturally relevant, globally inclusive branding of today."
Myles Bartholomew, CEO of SponsorsOne, added: "The beauty and wellness markets require a different marketing technique than the CBD markets. We needed someone with an impeccable track record and the specific experience in the beauty and fashion markets to take the lead on our new brand. We were extremely lucky to have Charles overseeing this foray into the beauty and wellness markets. Consumer acceptance of the infusion markets is growing rapidly we are moving expeditiously to build a really great brand during this window of opportunity. We want to be standing there owning a really terrific brand that will generate revenues for the company in this rapidly expanding market and create a very successful brand that could become a target for acquisition, further enhancing our shareholder's ROI."
SPONF Is Disrupting the Traditional Advertising Model
Sell Direct or Through Retail
No big upfront marketing fees, everyone in the community gets paid when there is a sale. This allows small brands with small budget look national overnight, everyone wins.
Your community of influencers can drive sales to your retailers or direct to your online store, either way everyone involved gets paid.
Customers are influencers
Imagine if you could get rewarded for every tweet, pin, share, and ‘like’ you post about your favorite brands which can be used to purchase more stuff from your favorite brands. The more you engage, the bigger the rewards and cash commissions! Level up to get bigger and better discounts on participating products.
Connect directly with consumers
Consumers now look to influencers to make buying decisions and introduce new brands that share their values. SponsorsOne lets small brands bypass traditional display ads and word search advertising, and connect directly with consumers through entertainment and social media influence. Brands benefit from authentic, word-of-mouth engagement and interactive posts and videos that feature the brand.
BIG data!
Real time data to drive ROI for brands, what's working within social media right now, as it changes from moment to moment, trend by trend. Campaigns can be adjusted in real time after they are launched, intelligence built into each campaign that creates authentic engagement with the campaign and brand, etc.
Multi-Channel Distribution
“SponsorsOne is making small brands Big, even faster now by opening up wholesale/retail distribution. This gives Brands access to every major retailer in their country.”
Direct To Consumer
Brands can sell their products direct to consumers using their online eCommerce platform. Shopify is fully integrated into the SponsorCoin platform and allows the brand community members to automatically apply discounts and SponsorCoins at checkout making the purchase process seamless. Brands can create a branded store front to drive their message to the consumer and maintain their unique look and story.
The SponsorCoin platform can connect to the brand’s current eCommerce store or we can build it for the brand through our team at SponsorsOne Media.
The upside is, brands who go direct to consumer take ownership over their most important assets, their customers. Owning the customer relationship provides much more leverage to increase customer lifetime value. Shoppers now have a chance to connect with the brand whenever they want, on their terms
Wholesale
SponsorsOne can build a national wholesale/retail distribution network for our brands. “Making Small Brands Big”, will be done faster by entering this channel alongside direct to consumer. Wholesale is a big leap for a growing brand. When a brand has the capacity to produce large quantities of their product, SponsorsOne can guide them through their next stage of growth.

The US Beverage market has shifted towards health and wellness which now represent 41% of the total beverage volume and over 50% of the market value.
The US Beverage industry, excluding alcoholic beverages, consumed over 60 billion gallons of drinks in 2018 generating $188 billion in wholesale revenue. The shifting beverage landscape continues the long-term trend away from sugary and traditional hot beverages towards a healthier beverage choice states BMC Strategic Associates, October 2019.
In a study published by the journal Addiction, researchers learned that CBD can help tobacco smokers quit by altering their brains' attentional biases to cigarette cues. Simply put, when a tobacco smoker has a craving, they do not associate the same positive feelings and satiety with tobacco as they typically would when they're under the effects of CBD1 .
Over 5.6 trillion tobacco cigarettes were produced globally in 2019 and were smoked by over 1.1 billion people. Of the 1.1 billion people smoking, 845 million smoked multiple times per day2. The total global revenue for tobacco cigarettes is forecasted in 2020 to exceed $711 billion with an expected annual growth rate of 2.8% until 20233. Hemp cigarettes will compete in this overall market.
Technical Analysis
As we mentioned above, the float on SPONF is razor thin.
We did the quick math, and there is only around $715,738K worth of shares available to the public for trading.
Based on our own technical analysis, we see the potential for another big move from here.
Bullish Indicators
Stock has formed a bullish bottom and is now in uptrend. Indicators extremely bullish as the stock has moved above the 50 & 20 moving averages
Histogram ticking higher and bullish, MACD bullish cross above zero-line
Stochastic in extremely bullish uptrend
As seen from its past performance, these low-float alerts are extremely volatile, and are no strangers to triple-digit same-day moves!
The Bottom Line
SPONF has been a consistent winner for us.
It appears grossly undervalued and oversold at these levels.
Those on the hunt for big gains should add SPONF to the top of their watchlist immediately.By Viewing this Content, you Agree that you Have Read and are in Full Understanding of both our Disclaimer & Privacy Policy(*Remember to use a Stop-Loss Order to protect your gains, as well as limit possible losses.)
Lululemon (LULU): The Channel of the Yoga Apparel IndustryIf you like this analysis, please make sure to like the post, and follow for more quality content!
I would also appreciate it if you could leave a comment below with some original insight.
In this post, I will be providing an in-depth analysis on Lulu Lemon Atheletica Inc. (LULU), by going over its business model, financials, and technicals as well.
What is Lululemon Athletica Inc. (LULU)?
Lululemon is a company that provides technical athletic apparel for yoga, running, training and most other sweaty pursuits. They differ from other apparel companies in that they offer extremely high end products.
M&A (Mergers and Acquisitions) of Mirror
- Lululemon acquired the indoors fitness company Mirror for $500m.
- Mirror is a company that offers an interactive mirror, which live streams on-demand workout classes for their users at home.
- Classes cost $39 per month
- Essentially, LULU will be offering a very similar subscription service business model to that of Peloton (PTON)
Business Models
Athleisure Products
- LULU’s main business model is in the athleisure (athletic leisure) apparel industry
- They are called the Channel of the yoga apparel industry, not because they simply offer overprices clothing, but because they know exactly who their target audience is
- They target not only people who like to wear yoga pants for workouts, but also people who want to look good in these clothes.
- Their main target, however, are people who pursue ‘mindfulness’ through activities
- There’s definitely a show-off aspect to the apparel as well, as people wear it with pride even on normal occasions.
- While trends change, it appears that the athleisure look won’t be fading away anytime soon.
- The athleisure market for men is growing as well, as the entire market grows 8% every year, with the potential to reach $517.5 billion according to Grand View Research
Direct to Consumer
- Another fact noting is that they operate in D2C (Direct to Consumer)
- They own the sales channels for online and offline consumers
- During this pandemic, they have reinforce their offline sales channels by offering online yoga classes, and introducing SNS-linked shopping features.
- As a result, while offline stores’ revenues have decreased by 48% during the pandemic, online D2C sales have increased by 67%, and their online sales have exceeded their offline sales
Subscription Service
- LULU offers a new subscription service through Mirror
- The mirror is a screen that plays fitness instructional videos
- It’s anticipated that the revenue generated from Mirror will be around $100 million this year
- According to the Bank of America, LULU will be able to raise $700 million in revenue and a subscriber base of 600,000 by 2023.
- There’s a lot of synergy to be expected through LULU Lemon’s acquisition of Mirror, as the demographics of people who purchase $400 yoga pants and $1500 worth mirrors match – high income demographics interested in exercise
Financials
- LULU has shown a 17% yoy revenue increase from their North American regions
- Their 2020 Q1 earnings were extremely disappointing as their shops have been directly targeted by the Corona Virus (COVID-19), but a revenue turnaround is anticipated for Q4
- For 2021, we can anticipate LULU’s revenue to hit $4 billion, with their Earnings per Share (EPS) at $4.23
- LULU shows astonishing EPS growth, as it has essentially doubled since 2018.
- Not having a middleman for their distribution channel significantly increases their operating profits as well, with their current percentage at 22% - much higher than its counterparts such as Adidas (ADS) or Nike (NKE)
- 88% of their revenue is generated from North American countries: Canada and the United States
- The company’s market capitalization is valued at 57 times its net profit, based on the 12 month Forward P/E ratio
- This is strong evidence for the argument that the company is overvalued.
Opportunities
-Given that we could anticipate a 28% yoy growth in the Chinese Pilates Market, LULU’s not having expanded to Asian and European markets yet suggests great opportunities for growth
- Since 2012, the Chinese population interested in Pilates has doubled to 12.5 million by 2019, and the Pilates apparel market has quadrupled to 9.7 Billion Chinese Yuan.
- The founder of LULU invested $100million in Anta – the Chinese Nike- acquiring 0.6% of the company’s share, in regards to their potential penetration of the Chinese market
- Anta does offer some Pilates related clothing, but does not have a Pilates apparel brand.
Competition
-LULU’s demographics also match with that of Peloton (PTON), and as such, we could anticipate fierce competition between the two firms
-They are also in a fierce competition with Athleta, a company that designs performance clothes for active women. Athelta is owned by GAP (GPS)
Technical Analysis
- We can take a look at LULU's daily chart for technical insight
- LULU has bounced on the $288 historic support, currently ranging between the 0.236 and 0.382 Fibonacci retracement levels
- Should we see further downfall, we could expect a bounce at the $265 historic support
- The 20 Simple Moving Average (SMA) is about to form a death cross with the 60 SMA, which has been acting as a strong indicator for uptrends and downtrends
- The Relative Strength Index (RSI) demonstrates the stock having been oversold recently
- The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) shows decreasing bearish histograms, and a potential for a golden cross
- We have seen these indicators point towards the same direction when the company was hit by the Corona Virus Pandemic, before moving on to triple in price
- While the overall trend still remains bullish, we would need further bullish confirmations to gain confidence on the uptrend
- Such confirmations would include a breakout leading prices to trade above the 60 SMA, or a close above the 0.236 Fibonacci resistance
Conclusion
Lululemon Athletica Inc. (LULU) is an apparel company that moves like a tech stock. It has extremely high potential, as it implements business diversification through its acquisition of Mirror, and is yet to expand to highly lucrative markets with huge potential such as the Asian and European markets.
As I have previously mentioned, ironically, it’ll be the luxury brands/companies that survive through hard times like these. Economic crises is when polarization deteriorates, and spending on luxurious goods increases. LULU does a great job of communicating with its customers and bringing more people in, and as such, their fundamental business model of a luxury brand remains solid.

SPONF Is Disrupting the Traditional Advertising Model
Sell Direct or Through Retail
No big upfront marketing fees, everyone in the community gets paid when there is a sale. This allows small brands with small budget look national overnight, everyone wins.
Your community of influencers can drive sales to your retailers or direct to your online store, either way everyone involved gets paid.
Customers are influencers
Imagine if you could get rewarded for every tweet, pin, share, and ‘like’ you post about your favorite brands which can be used to purchase more stuff from your favorite brands. The more you engage, the bigger the rewards and cash commissions! Level up to get bigger and better discounts on participating products.
Connect directly with consumers
Consumers now look to influencers to make buying decisions and introduce new brands that share their values. SponsorsOne lets small brands bypass traditional display ads and word search advertising, and connect directly with consumers through entertainment and social media influence.

The Next +100% Move Could Be On The Way
SPONF is currently sitting on a bottomed out chart, and could see the bounce of a lifetime tomorrow.

Two weeks ago, SPONF announced that It has entered into a collaboration with Volunteer Botanicals, LLC, a Tennessee-based company focused on delivering fully customized, botanical-based products for product creators and medical practitioners, to create a proprietary new branded line of products for the company.

These products are marketed under the marketing management agreement with GO Nutraceutical's branded line of "Cannabis 2.0" products.

The company has charged Charles Harbison to oversee this subsidiary. He is a full-time employee of the company and is its Executive in charge of Brand Management. He previously launched his own luxury brand HARBISON, which, since its launch, garnered the attention of the fashion world including iconic public figures, celebrity stylists, power influencers, and editors.

We will build a beauty product assortment that reflects this current sentiment, aligning the health intentions of today's customer with the naturally derived healing nature of CBG and the culturally relevant, globally inclusive branding of today."
Myles Bartholomew, CEO of SponsorsOne, added: "The beauty and wellness markets require a different marketing technique than the CBD markets. We needed someone with an impeccable track record and the specific experience in the beauty and fashion markets to take the lead on our new brand.

Consumer acceptance of the infusion markets is growing rapidly we are moving expeditiously to build a really great brand during this window of opportunity. We want to be standing there owning a really terrific brand that will generate revenues for the company in this rapidly expanding market and create a very successful brand that could become a target for acquisition, further enhancing our shareholder's ROI."
SPONF Is Disrupting the Traditional Advertising Model
Sell Direct or Through Retail
No big upfront marketing fees, everyone in the community gets paid when there is a sale. This allows small brands with small budget look national overnight, everyone wins.
Your community of influencers can drive sales to your retailers or direct to your online store, either way everyone involved gets paid.
Customers are influencers
Imagine if you could get rewarded for every tweet, pin, share, and ‘like’ you post about your favorite brands which can be used to purchase more stuff from your favorite brands. The more you engage, the bigger the rewards and cash commissions! Level up to get bigger and better discounts on participating products.
Connect directly with consumers
Consumers now look to influencers to make buying decisions and introduce new brands that share their values. SponsorsOne lets small brands bypass traditional display ads and word search advertising, and connect directly with consumers through entertainment and social media influence. Brands benefit from authentic, word-of-mouth engagement and interactive posts and videos that feature the brand.
BIG data!
Real time data to drive ROI for brands, what's working within social media right now, as it changes from moment to moment, trend by trend.

[Long] VechainI have been a long term holder of Vechain for a while now, sitting comfortably on a Thunder X Node just collecting the "dividends".
I recently noticed the run up in crypto and decided to take a look at the space again...
Wow! Vechain is doing things!
A Nike shoe is being produced, tracked on Vechain:
heraldsheets.com
Something about infection risk management:
medium.com
It remains my belief that Vechain is the foremost and premiere "blockchain as a service" that is usable by enterprises. Over time, this will become more and more apparent as its list of companies and partners grow. In my opinion, this enterprise-use value represents the "intrinsic value" necessary to make VET some kind of store of value. That is my main concern with Bitcoin, which IMO lacks "intrinsic value" although makes up for it with "liquidity value" for the time being.
But enough of that, as a trader I really just care about charts. Well, the daily chart of VET against USD, BTC, and ETH are all shaping up VERY NICELY if I may say so. I remain a long term holder and am not interested in trading it.
Valero Pulls Back to Old Level After a Golden CrossLots of things are happening on the chart with oil refiner Valero Energy .
1) VLO had a Golden Cross pattern in late October, with its 50-day SMA rising above the 200-day SMA.
2) In recent weeks, it pulled back to find support at its old resistance zone between $92 and $94. That goes back to October 2018 and April 2019.
3) VLO has also remained near its 50-day SMA, creating a setup similar to Nike early last month.
Energy stocks in general have shown positive relative strength lately as oil tries to push higher. There are a few positive forces at work: OPEC extending production cuts, calming of trade tensions between the U.S. and China, a better economic situation in Europe and low production in the U.S.
Refiners have been popular trading vehicles for energy in the past. As long as VLO holds this support zone in the low-to-mid 90s, will traders get interested in it again?
NYSE:NKE
Woods BIG win to push $NKE Higher?Taking a shot on this swing to the upside with Tiger Woods getting a win. Hes the poster-boy for Nike Golf and he just caught himself a big win. For some reason I just see every "Middle Age'd Guy in America", waking up tomorrow morning and saying - "Hey you know what, that Nike looks like a good investment bois."
Will set limits as noted and update trade first thing tomorrow morning.
$UA Under Armour maybe has a image problem, but could run up. How often do we see Nike goods sold at discounted rates? not very. Whereas UA seems to always be on sale in every retailer, that is not a brand that people wants to continue to wear. UA's board are working hard to stop this practice as it is just making them BUSY FOOLS, selling a lot but for no margin. The sports sector is dominated by NIke and ADDIDAS and it is hard duopoly to break. Despite this we see a potential return in UA as consumer confience and spending has recovered from the 4th quater of 2018.
$NKE Drops amid Kaepernick news, but for how long?$NKE has fallen back down to its $79 support line. Looks like a nice selloff amidst the recent news, but I suspect Nike will easily bounce back and reach new highs. I am looking at $85-$90 as the new support line, especially with the holiday season near.
I'd love to hear other opinions and ideas on where you guys think Nike will go next.
AMGN MAKING MASHED POTATO'SNO. 1 STOCK IN NASDAQ AND IBB, 10K INVESTMENT 30 YEARS AGO WOULD BE WORTH 10 MILLION DOLLARS
lookIing at a chart dating back to 1984 and compared it to the S&P 500 as well as other "mature growth" stocks, including McDonald's, Nike, Home Depot and Apple. Over the time period, Amgen rallied close to 100,000 percent, far outperforming the S&P 500 (INDEX: .SPX)'s 1,373 percent move, McDonald's (NYSE: MCD) nearly 6,000 percent rise, Nike (NYSE: NKE) and Home Depot (NYSE: HD)'s more than 20,000 percent move and Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL)'s 35,163 percent rally. if one had invested $10,000 in Amgen in 1984, it would have returned nearly $10 million.
UA Technical Dip-Buy OpportunitiesTrade Recommendations: Buy at Spot on Nov 26@52.74. Price target 62.5 by Mpril 2013. Stop Loss at 45
Fundamentally I like UA because they can pose a threat to nike with their upper middle echelon product. It is also now diversifying into products other than football, such as basketball and soccer. It also aims to become a traditional sports giant like Nike and Adidas by opening up its own stores.
The RSI has multi-month support around 50 line. Now that it has taken a brief dip below 50, UA will continue to rally . Not that the RSI bounced between 70 and 50 between mid 2011 and how, while UA steadily rallied.
The Stochastic indicator says that UA is oversold, and is now exiting the oversold territory, and poised for rally
MACD Histogram is very negative, so it signifies that the fast blue line will soon rise up to catch the re line.
