[Podcast] A Technician’s Take

by

I had a nice chat this week with Aaron Task and Stephen Alpher over at Seeking Alpha.

We talked about why price matters most and how come media outlets choose to ignore it in favor of other things.

What’s going on with US Stocks, Interest Rates, Crypto and which stocks are we buying?

We go over all of this and much more throughout our conversation.

This was a lot of fun. Check it out.

Bullish, Messy or Bearish?

by

No matter which markets you’re investing in, this is a good lesson.

The visual below comes from this Yesterday’s Crypto Note. It shows the different scenarios that almost all cyrpto currencies currently find themselves in.

Most are below their former highs, and stuck in a range once again. You can put US Small-caps in that exact same category too, for example.

Homebuilders and Semiconductors look like the one on the left. You can put $LUNA $MANA $SAND $CRO and even $ETH in that category.

And then you can find a lot of nasty Cryptos that look like the one on the right. You can probably put the ARK Funds, Biotechs and China in that bucket too: [Read more…]

Bitcoin Crashes Just Like 1987

by

I can’t help but notice the similarities between the Bitcoin Crash we just saw and what happened to stocks in 1987.

You guys following me for a while know I’m not big on analogs. Every market environment is different.

But history does help us put together a roadmap. We’re all humans in this endeavor after all. And that certainly doesn’t change, even if we are talking about Crypto and not stocks, 2021 and not 1987.

For you guys who are new to markets I encourage you to study the past. Learn about prior cycles and what happened.

These are great lessons. I promise you.

The US Stock market was booming in the 1980s, after doing nothing for decades since topping out in the mid-1960s.

Stocks were rolling. They had meme stocks and reddit back then too. They were just called other things like Junk Bonds and Corporate Raiders.

Those were some good times.

Then came Black Monday in October of 1987.

The S&P500 fell 20.4% in a single day. [Read more…]
