In our last India Chartbook Update post we discussed a continuation of the trends we’ve been seeing for most of 2018, as well as some new developments in the Commodities and Currencies space. Additionally, our mid-cap update discussed our shifting view of that market-cap segment and highlighted the best opportunities in our view. We also did a small-cap update post the following day highlighting our views there. Today we’re going to discuss any major changes over the last two weeks at a high level, which will direct you to the Chartbook areas to look for these themes.
This Week Is The 7th Inning Stretch
The Baseball-almanac calls the 7th Inning Stretch, “Perhaps the most mundane, yet physically rewarding moment of every baseball game”. Over time, I’ve learned to respect this time of the stock market calendar year in a similar manner. The timing of it is very close too, as we approach about 2/3 of the way through the game, or year in this case.
I’ve found that it’s a great time to reflect on the decisions we’ve made so far in 2018 and mentally prepare for the rest of the year. This period I’m referring to specifically is the week before Labor Day weekend and the week after. Things historically get back to normal around September 10th-11th. [Read more…]
BNN Bloomberg Interview: This Bull Market Is Just Starting!
This week I had the chance to visit Toronto for the first time. I spent a couple of days meeting with investors, doing a TV spot and taking in some of the things Canada has to offer.
I was invited to speak at the Toronto CFA Society to talk about my Technical Analysis. It was an event put on by the Canadian Society of Technical Analysts and the CMT Association. The crowd was great, interested in charts and eager to learn. Everyone was so nice.
While in Toronto, I caught a Blue Jays game (they beat the Orioles 6-0) and ate too much sushi. All in all, mission accomplished!
Before the event on Thursday I went by the BNN Bloomberg studios for a TV interview with Catherine Murray. It was a lot of fun.
Here’s the video: [Read more…]
Canadian Energy Update
From the desk of Tom Bruni @BruniCharting
This week we added Canadian Stock Market and Sector Indexes and the entire TSX 60 to our chartbook coverage. To kick that off, I want to take a look at the Canadian Energy market and share what we’re seeing.
Best Reward/Risk In The IBD 50
From the desk of Tom Bruni @BruniCharting
Last month we added the Investors Business Daily 50 List to our chart coverage. This list combined relative strength and strong fundamentals to highlight 50 of the best stocks in the market. Today I updated the Chartbook for members, so I wanted to highlight some of the best names I’m seeing on this list across several sectors of the market.
US Stock Market Breadth Continues To Drive Stocks Higher
My favorite one lately is when the bears tell people that US Stock Market Breadth is deteriorating. It’s hilarious.
Their sorry excuse for a thesis has them suggesting that there are fewer stocks participating to the upside in the U.S. Stock Market, when nothing could be further from the truth. I’ve been pounding the table that we continue to see an expansion in participation, which is characteristic of an uptrend and we have wanted to be buying stocks very very aggressively. That has worked out well. See here, here, here, here, here, here and here.
The reason I keep bringing up breadth expansion, not contraction, is because it’s my job to constantly be reevaluating the data as it comes in. It’s incomprehensible to me that someone could think that breadth is deteriorating. What the hell are they looking at? [Read more…]
Airlines Help Transports To New Highs
From the desk of Tom Bruni @BruniCharting
Sector rotation. Sector rotation. Sector rotation. I probably sound like a broken record at this point, but today’s theme is once again…sector rotation. This time it’s Transports being helped back to their January highs by an improving Airline sector. We’ve spoken about the relative strength in Railroads and Trucking stocks, and acknowledged the relative under-performance in Airlines two months ago, but the data has slowly shifted.
[India Premium] Small-Cap Update
During our August 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.
