Have you heard that this bull market is only being driven by Large-cap Tech?
Well, what if Small-cap Tech broke out of this multi-year base to new all-time highs?
What then?
Would it still be just Large-cap Tech?
Here's what the index looks like and, by definition, it excludes any of the so called "Mag7" and any other Mega-cap stocks that are perhaps helping to drive other indexes.
Crypto markets have continued their sell-off into last week, with Bitcoin losing the critical 60,000 support level and the total crypto market-cap briefly dipping below $2T for the first time since February.
It doesn’t matter whether we’re talking about markets or summer vacations – I always avoid the crowds and aim to beat the heat.
No lines. No traffic. No fake, overpriced food.
It also means dropping those hot semiconductor names and reaching for silver mining stocks…
July is by far the best month of the year for gold’s crazy cousin. And it’s not even close:
Unsurprisingly, silver futures gained roughly seven percent last week. They also eclipsed the previous month's high and printed their highest weekly close since January 2013 – a stellar way to start the month.
On the flip side, June takes the cake as Silver’s most challenging month of the year.
And what did Silver do last month?
It only fell by three percent, finding support at a critical shelf of former highs:
Silver futures are down almost three percent today alone. No biggie.
Non-members can get a quick recap of the call simply by reading this post each month.
By focusing on long-term, monthly charts, the idea is to take a step back and put things into the context of their structural trends. This is easily one of our most valuable exercises as it forces us to put aside the day-to-day noise and simply examine markets from a “big-picture” point of view.
With that as our backdrop, let’s dive right in and discuss three of the most important charts and/or themes from this month’s call.
But if we expect it to continue, then we're going to need to see some rotation into some new sectors to bring fresh cash into the market and keep the wave going.
One sector that my Analysts feel has the potential to pick up the slack is Precious Metals. And the name that Steve Strazza and I discussed on today's Flow Show has the potential to ride the sector wave as well as play catch up to its big brother Gold.
