Last week we talked about some of the positives in the market...Copper holdings its low, Tech leadership, etc.

This week we're taking a look at why this rally is likely a dead cat bounce with some stats.

In this post, we're going to outline the inter-market signals we're watching for stocks next move...and why they suggest it's likely lower.

In this report, we cover our Coronavirus Custom Index which is comprised of stocks we believe benefit from the coronavirus as well as a playbook to profit from these strong performers. 

To be clear, we didn’t find these stocks looking for coronavirus plays, we found these through our ordinary process of scanning for relative strength. We were simply looking for stocks that have been bucking the trend during the recent selloff. With that said, it was hard to ignore the results when we thought about what these companies do.

Here is our All Star Charts Coronavirus Custom Index making higher highs and higher lows recently while the broader market squanders near bear market territory.

If you're reading this it's probably because you've read our Table of the Week where we identified roughly 100 of the strongest stocks in the S&P 500. After digging into the charts of all these stocks, we came up with a handful of setups that we believe are currently offering the best reward/risk. Here they are, in no particular order.

Stocks got hit nicely this week and we did very well in our bond positions. So where do we profit next?

Sunday we outlined a trade in Cocoa that's working well so far, so today we wanted to outline a similar situation developing in Sugar.

Let's take a look at what's happening.

Cocoa isn't getting a lot of attention right now given all the other things going on in the world, but we think it should be.

In this post, we want to outline a trade that's setting up and how we're going to take advantage of it.

This post is a follow-on to this week's "Chart of The Week" which covers the recent breakout in Gold.

Here we'll take a macro look at the Precious Metals space, update our thesis, and outline the best ways to take advantage of it.

There is a lot going on in the market right now, not just in the U.S. but globally. The intermarket relationships between Bonds, Gold and the US Dollar are having a major impact on equities.

January is a month that gives us a lot more information than most other months throughout the year. We have the data now that we can use to help us identify primary trends.

Volatility is picking up. Daily swings are getting larger. I’ve seen this story before.

We discuss all of this and a lot more.

This is the video recording of the February 2020 Conference Call.

This week's talk of the town is how Financials, particularly Regional Banks, are rolling over relative to the rest of the market at a faster rate than the Yield Curve is rolling over.

While that's certainly something worth noting, Financials as a group don't really become that interesting until they break out to new all-time highs.

The XLF is close, but not there yet.

Instead, I think the focus should be on the Broker-Dealers & Exchanges ETF (IAI) as it presses up against all-time highs of its own.

Let's take a look at what's happening.

Here's the Broker-Dealers & Exchanges ETF (IAI) holding well above its 2007 highs after a successful breakout retest in January 2019. Today, prices are pushing back up against their 2018 highs as momentum approaches overbought territory on the weekly chart, confirming the strength of buyers. From a structural perspective, there's not a lot to dislike here.
