This announcement is 15 years in the making. And I’m grateful to all of you that I’m able to make it.
Ladies and gentlemen, 2024 was my last year as Chief Market Strategist at All Star Charts Research.
Many of you were with me when I started writing a blog from my apartment in New York City in 2010. I was 28 years old then – just a kid trying to figure it out.
You were with me too when we turned the blog into a research company. We’ve added some of the top technicians in the game today to our team.
And All Star Charts is now one of the greatest technical analysis research companies in the history of the stock market.
I’m really proud of what we’ve built together. The team that I’ve assembled has helped me make decisions about what I do with my money for many years.
So I’m equally proud to share that Steve Strazza – my right-hand man and the Director of Research for the last five years – was named Chief Market Strategist at Allstarcharts earlier this year.
Steve has played an instrumental role in our success at All Star Charts. No single person on Earth is more qualified to take...
I'll be back from a nice family vacation later today and will be LIVE on The Morning Show Friday morning.
Miami is fantastic this time of year. I highly recommend a good vacation, if that's something that you can afford to do.
There was a time in my life that I couldn't afford this kind of thing, so it makes me appreciate it so much more. Many of you already understand this. Some of you will one day.
I wanted to check in and share a few things I've been thinking about while I've been away this week.
One thing that certainly stands out is just how great it is to stay off twitter while you're way with your family.
If you want to make sure you're a bad father, one way to solidify that is to spend all your time tweeting during family vacations.
I kid. But this is definitely a luxury that I couldn't understand in my younger days.
It's been a great week down in Miami visiting family.
We had our first child in the middle of covid, and then had twins 2 years ago. So traveling hasn't exactly been at the top of the priority list, like it used to be for us before kids.
In fact, this is actually the first time I've come back home to Miami with my entire family, including all 3 kids.
It's been awesome.
Sunday night I got to sneak out after the kids went to bed and met Steve Strazza for sushi at a new spot on Brickell.
I've also hung out with old high school buddies and cousins. I don't get to do these things as much as I used to back in the day.
This morning I wanted to pass along two charts that I think all investors need to keep front and center right now.
These charts, in my opinion, literally define this bull market, and whether or not it's over, like we all keep being told it is.
We call this behavior: "Polarity".
It's when former resistance turns into support. In other words, where there were more sellers than buyers (at the prior cycle's peak), there are now (so far) more buyers that sellers.
