It's been an extraordinary month for the stock market. Just weeks ago the mood was dark — a wider Middle East war looked not just possible but probable. As those fears have receded, the market has exploded higher in a V-shaped recovery. Yes, the indexes are extended in the short term, but the data suggests forward returns over the next year are looking promising. Recent action reminds me of the setup coming out of the 1998 bear market — not a perfect analogy, but a compellin

The $VIX  is trending higher and $SPY   $QQQ  are living below their 200-day moving averages. Extremely dangerous market conditions are present. We could totally unwind and see the market melt down. Remember, cash is a position. Extreme caution is warranted here. Risk right. Sit tight.

Caution is warranted as the S&P 500 and Nasdaq trade near— or just below— their 200‑day moving averages. Individual stock trading has been challenging for months, and now key leaders like NVDA have been chopping around and unable to make meaningful progress. When I look at charts of the S&P 500 and Nasdaq, I’m reminded of something William O’Neil once said: “The worst thing a stock can do is break and fail to rally.”  That’s exactly what we’re seeing right now. Last week’s m

As we get ready to turn the calendar to 2026, let's look at current market conditions. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite are both setting up in bases and within striking distance of new all-time highs. This is an excellent sign. Moreover, the Russell 2000 has also shown strong action since April and is also closing in on a new all-time high. It is a fantastic sign to see these three indices all acting well. In addition, stocks in trends continue to increase, a good sign tha

In a prior post , I mentioned that Bitcoin was flashing warning signs. Since then, it has sold off sharply. However, now it looks like it may have bottomed. A few things are indicating to me that a bottom may be in. First, Bitcoin at its' low was extremely extended from its' 50-day moving average. Like a stretched rubber band, it is due for a rally. Second, the extremely high volume in IBIT could be a sign of capitulation as everyone who wanted to sell or was forced to sell d

Caution is warranted here in crypto with Bitcoin living under the 200-day moving average and Solana forming a head and shoulders pattern. I'm currently cash and looking for a reentry off a fresh setup. In prior cycles, Bitcoin has exploded higher in the post-halving year and corrected sharply in the presidential mid-term year. While there are many fundamental reasons to be bullish on crypto, I never argue with the tape. Bitcoin breaking down and failing to rise above the 200-

I've been a big proponent of Bitcoin for years now, but it is always important to keep an open mind. The last few months Bitcoin has not been able to head higher. Now, it has started to break down. I have significantly reduced my position and will exit my entire position if the $98,000 level is broken. My mindset is that I can always buy it back, but my priority at this point is to lock in my gains. If Bitcoin rebases, I will be quick to buy it at higher levels. In addition,

As November rolls around, the weather is starting to cool in New York but the market is getting hotter and hotter. The S&P 500 is at new highs and crypto looks to be setting up for a major run. While all the talk has been about Gold in October, a quick look at the GLD chart shows what looks to be a climax run. In 2021, GLD topped and then we saw a very strong rally in Bitcoin. This is exactly what I believe we will start to see in November and December of 2025. It is very lik
