This is the video recording of our May 18, 2022, Inside Scoop Weekly Strategy Session.
Crypto Stock Insiders Add to Positions
The most significant insider transaction on today’s Hot List is a Form 4 filing by Coinbase Global $COIN co-founder and director Fred Ehrsam.
His purchase is worth roughly $50 million.
There was also some insider activity reported in the crypto miner Marathon Digital Holdings $MARA, as a director purchased about $150,000 worth of stock.
The DXY Is at a Critical Juncture
From the desk of Steven Strazza @Sstrazza and Ian Culley @IanCulley
Copper is challenging the lower bounds of its range.
The AUD/JPY is attempting to reclaim former support.
And the S&P 500 is digging in at the AVWAP from its COVID lows.
These are some of the most important charts and levels in the market right now.
But there’s one chart that tops them all…
In our view, the US Dollar Index $DXY is the key to this market.
It’s currently struggling to resolve higher from a multi-year base after reaching its highest level since 2002.
The breakout could stick and lead to a sustained uptrend. Or, it might fail. Either way, the outcome will have wide-ranging impacts on risk assets.
Young Aristocrats (May 2022)
From the desk of Steve Strazza @Sstrazza
Dividend Aristocrats are easily some of the most desirable investments on Wall Street. These are the names that have increased dividends for at least 25 years, providing steadily increasing income to long-term-minded shareholders.
As you can imagine, the companies making up this prestigious list are some of the most recognizable brands in the world. Coca-Cola, Walmart, and Johnson & Johnson are just a few of the household names making the cut.
Here at All Star Charts, we like to stay ahead of the curve. That’s why we’re turning our attention to the future aristocrats.
In an effort to seek out the next generation of the cream-of-the-crop dividend plays, we’re curating a list of stocks that have raised their payouts every year for five to nine years.
We call them the Young Aristocrats, and the idea is that these are “stocks that pay you to make money.”
Imagine if years of consistent dividend growth and high momentum and relative strength had a baby, leaving you with the best of the emerging dividend giants that are outperforming the averages.
By adding our technical analysis to the mix, the Young Aristocrat setups give you the opportunity to own the best of the market’s future blue-chip winners before they become must-own household names.
Often, the strongest performers in this universe and even the Aristocrats themselves pay relatively small dividends.
This is usually because the stock appreciation makes it tough to keep up with the payout — even for companies that consistently grow their yield in the double-digits!
For this reason, we don’t have a minimum threshold for the dividend. What we’re really doing here is creating a list of quality stocks based on their ability to persistently grow their shareholder return.
And maybe the best part? This list is not just designed for long-term investors. Any kind of investor or trader can use this list as it helps generate ideas across all time frames, even the short term.
Remember, some of the most important filters we use for this list are momentum, relative strength, and proximity to new highs.
So, let’s keep it real: These stocks are going up across all time horizons.
Options Flow Still Bullish for Energy Stocks
The most significant insider transactions on today’s Hot List are Form 4 filings by the co-founder and an executive vice president of DISH Network Corporation $DISH.
Between the two, they disclosed a $24 million purchase of their own stock.
Under the Hood (05-16-2022)
From the desk of Steve Strazza @Sstrazza.
Welcome back to our latest Under the Hood column where we’ll cover all the action for the week ended May 13, 2022. This report is published bi-weekly and rotated with our Minor Leaguers column.
What we do here is analyze the most popular stocks during the week and find opportunities to either join in and ride these momentum names higher, or fade the crowd and bet against them.
We use a variety of sources to generate the list of most popular names.
There are so many new data sources available that all we need to do is organize and curate them in a way that shows us exactly what we want: a list of stocks that are seeing an unusual increase in investor interest.
Watch this video for a behind-the-scenes look at our process.
Whether we’re measuring increasing interest based on large institutional purchases, unusual options activity, or simply our proprietary lists of trending tickers, there’s a lot of overlap.
Follow the Flow (05-16-2022)
From the desk of Steve Strazza @sstrazza
This is one of our favorite bottom-up scans: Follow the Flow. In this note, we simply create a universe of stocks that experienced the most unusual options activity — either bullish or bearish… but NOT both.
We utilize options experts, both internally and through our partnership with The TradeXchange. Then, we dig through the level 2 details and do all the work upfront for our clients.
Our goal is to isolate only those options market splashes that represent levered and high-conviction, directional bets.
We also weed out hedging activity and ensure there are no offsetting trades that either neutralize or cap the risk on these unusual options trades.
What remains is a list of stocks that large financial institutions are putting big money behind… and they’re doing so for one reason only: because they think the stock is about to move in their direction and make them a pretty penny.
Then we flip through our list of stocks flashing unusual activity and pick the best setups using many of the same technical filters we do for our other scans.
And, just like that, we’ll follow the money flow and fatten our own pockets along with some of the world’s most powerful financial institutions.
[PLUS] Weekly Top 10 Report
From the desk of Steve Strazza @Sstrazza
Our Top 10 Charts Report was just published.
In this weekly note, we highlight 10 of the most important charts or themes we’re currently seeing in asset classes around the world.
S&P 500 Tests a Key Level
Equities continue to look vulnerable as sellers remain in full control. When it comes to the major averages, we’ve had our eyes on the AVWAP from the COVID lows. In late April, the Russell 2000 and Nasdaq 100 violated these levels and followed it up with a fresh leg to the downside. Markets have continued to sell off since.
Today, all eyes are on the S&P 500 which is now challenging its AVWAP from the COVID lows. This level represents the price the average investor has paid since March 2020, making it a critical level of interest.
What this really means is the average buyer since that time is now in a loss position. While this would be a logical place for bulls to step in and stop the carnage, we’re not seeing any sign of it yet. Until we do, be prepared for heightened volatility and further downside.
