People don't like it when I tell them the Dow is going to 30,000. They tend to get even more worked up when I tell them it's going to 40,000 after that.

I'm old enough to remember a time when stocks going up was a good thing. In my opinion,...

This week's Chart of The Week revisits a topic we've written about many times over the last few years, Small-Caps vs Large-Caps.

The Nifty Public Sector Bank and Media sectors of the market have been laggards for a while, but we're now beginning to see signs that rotation into these areas is ahead.

Stocks are breaking out to new highs, however, not all areas of the market are participating to the same extent.

Today we're looking at a chart that suggests one market laggard is potentially undergoing a trend change and may outperform in the...

Stocks are going up. Interest Rates are not.

This we know.

If you haven't seen our thoughts on stocks lately, I encourage you to catch up here: November - ...

Remember Crypto Currencies? The conversations over Thanksgiving dinners in 2017 were really something. It feels like just yesterday we were still feeling the euphoria of the Crypto Craze.

Technology is the largest sector of the market from an indexing perspective, but it's also pervasive because it finds its ways into other sectors/industries and often plays a big role.

The mean reversion we outlined a few weeks ago has been playing out, but now the major indices are running into sellers at very logical levels.

The major indices in India are stuck in "no man's land" right now, making it a tough trading environment for many.

Assets in the strongest uptrends not only do well on an absolute basis, they tend to outperform relative to their alternatives as well. In the case of the S&P500, with new all-time highs last month, we've just seen lower highs relative to both...
