Mid-week market update: Is the worst of the Japanese risk-off episode over? The Nikkei formed a bullish harami pattern when it recovered on Tuesday, but the recovery candle formed an "inside day" compared to Monday's massive downdraft. As well, BOJ deputy governor Governor Shinichi Uchida calmed markets and struck a dovish tone when he said...

We’ve all seen the warning signs about narrow market concentration and deteriorating breadth. The S&P 500 is an accident waiting to happen. On the other hand, strategist Ed Yardeni stated in a CNBC interview that he believed we are in a “slow motion melt-up”. I agree. While the excesses in the stock market are...
Mid-week market update: The usually reliable S&P 500 Intermediate Term Breadth Momentum Oscilator (ITBM) flashed a buy signal in the third week of June when its 14-day RSI recycled from oversold to neutral. The S&P 500 consolidated sideways for about a week and resumed it climb. This is the story of why I did not...

Mid-week market update: The S&P 500 has become an index of behemoth NVIDIA and everything else. The all-time high experienced by the S&P 500 in mid-June was largely attributable to the price action of NVIDIA. The rest of the market, as measured by the equal-weighted S&P 500, has been trading sideways for several months and...

Mid-week market update: I am publishing this earlier than usual as the U.S. markets are closed for the Juneteenth holiday. The S&P 500 has gone on another upper Bollinger Band ride, accompanied by a severely overbought reading on the 5-day RSI, which is over 90%. Overbought conditions are often not bearish, but a manifestation...

Mid-week market update: I pointed out on the weekend that it's not unusual for the S&P 500 to consolidate sideways after reaching its upper Bollinger Band before the market makes its next major directional move. There have been five other similar instances in the last six months. What's a little unusual about the current episode...

Mid-week market update: Now that the Dow, S&P 500, and NASDAQ Composite have risen to an all-time high on the back of a slightly softer than expected CPI report, and Keith Gill, otherwise known as Roaring Kitty, and the meme stock brigade is back, how frothy is this stock market? Just look at the surge...

Mid-week market update: I wrote on the weekend that conditions were setting up for a panic bottom (see Here comes the sentiment flush), but one final flush may be necessary to spark a relief rally. The S&P 500 has now achieved the milestones for a panic bottom. The stochastic is sufficiently oversold. The index violated...
