Over the last week or so we've seen an upside reversal in many of the Public Sector Bank stocks across the large, mid, and small-cap segments of the market. This has many wondering whether or not this is "the bottom" in this sector or if it's simply "a bottom" within the context of many structural downtrends. In this post we'll take a look into the sector to see what the weight of evidence suggests might be the answer to this question.

Here is the latest video on our Youtube Channel: Railroad Stocks and what it could mean for the overall market!

In the latest monthly conference call for All Star Charts subscribers, JC lays out a compelling case for being long leaders in the transportation space -- notably trucking and railroads.

We're not one to step in front of trends, especially those riding on rails, and with a well received earnings report released last week pushing $CSX to new highs, we see nothing but green lights ahead to our price target. And when momentum is coupled with collapsing volatility, it sets up pretty compelling opportunities to participate in some highly leveraged upside.

During our July Members Only Conference Call we discussed a lot of the big-picture trends from around the world and in India, but we wanted to do a long post discussing what we're seeing in the small-cap space. In this post I'll cover what we're seeing in the index itself, as well as get into some of its most actionable components. Also check out our mid-cap post here.

JC is fond of trades that offer asymmetric return opportunities (who isn't, really?). And we've got a potential beauty setting up in Abbott Labs $ABT.

With earnings out of the way and a direction loudly declared, we've got a screaming opportunity setting up and we're ready to strike.

This is the recording from the live July Conference Call for Members of the New Allstarcharts India! Before getting into individual stock ideas in India, we're going to first start with the global macro perspective. Once we identify the direction of the underlying trends from a structural and broader view, then we'll dive into the NIFTY and SENSEX Indexes on both longer-term and short-term timeframe. We want to look at Large-caps, Small-caps and everything in between before getting into the Sector and Industries themselves like Energy, Banks and Pharma.

One of the most underrated tools we have as U.S. Stock Market participants is the Dow Jones Industrial Average. I often hear how because it's price weighted, or because it only has 30 stocks, it cannot be relied upon as a gauge of market health. In the past, I've written about how I use it and why these criticisms are irresponsible. I encourage you to read through our Free Educational section to see how we use the Dow Jones Industrial Average and other various tools that we have at our disposal.

We're in the middle of a bunch of really exciting things here at All Star Charts. We're growing as a team and as a community of investors. This summer we brought on our new Chief Options Strategist Sean McLaughlin and added new Technical Analyst Tom Bruni. With this growth comes a lot more data that and analytics that we get to dive into every day. Some of the stuff we're building is so cool and beyond anything I thought was possible 10 years ago. We're living in some pretty amazing times and I'm really enjoying using and exploring the new technology.

Cryptocurrencies have enjoyed a nice few days after a long rout, meaning my timeline is now filled with Bitcoin charts and the like. To be honest I've been so busy with charts for Allstarcharts India that I hadn't checked my crypto charts in a while. Well, I'm glad I did because the chart of Ethereum is a textbook example of a core Technical Analysis concept, polarity.
