Tales of a Technician: The December that was, redemption and all

I was considering doing a more comprehensive year in review, but the beauty of my monthly retrospectives is I’ve effectively already done that. My “year in review” would merely be a re-hash of the tales I’ve already laid bare on a monthly basis anyway. The key lessons have been chronicled, my highs and lows spelled

Tales of a Technician: Interest Rates Matter

Tales of a Technician: The Time for Foreign Stock Domination is Nigh

The financial markets that we get to play in these days have already been sliced, diced, and organized to death. And that’s a good thing! Once upon a time, the global markets were a hodgepodge of countless companies. Now, they’ve been cataloged into easy-to-follow groups. One way to break things down is geographically like U.S.

Tales of a Technician: The AAPL is Rotting, Trade it Anyways

With all the bullishness surrounding large-caps these days, you would think the largest of all the caps would be having a hey-day. Even with today’s give-back, the S&P 500 is still up 6.7% year-to-date in one of its best starts in decades. Mr. Market is frothier than a root beer float.
