I’m one of those crazy investors who ads more NKE to my long position every time they put out another insanely good ad. They’ve done it again. Now will they bust through 2018 highs? Let’s do this!! NKE Daily Read more
TWLO – one of my faves reports this week and the daily chart is gorgeous. Doesn’t mean earnings will be solid, but it’s worth a look. TWLO Daily ISRG is another stock I’ve been in and out of for many years. I like the chart (consolidating around MA200 on daily), so I’m considering adding here. Read more
The market has been ugly… and that’s putting it nicely. Today’s bounce of nearly 1100 points, however, marked a record setting UP move in the DOW. Is this a dead-cat in the middle of a bear market or is this truly a reversal? Time will tell, but mark this day. Dow surges nearly 1,100Read more
As you may know, I’m a big fan of Texas Longhorn football. However, it’s been many years since I’ve actually been to a game. When an opportunity presented itself to attend a home game against USC, I obviously had to take it. It was a special event because not only was the game a selloutRead more
Last week, we looked at a handful of retail stocks ahead of their earnings. Some ran higher and some failed miserably. It’s a typical mixed bag environment that is leading to ugliness in a few quarters. That’s how I see it, at least. I don’t like the consumer environment right now and feel that, althoughRead more

Brands create loyalty by being part of movements and Nike has been the king of positioning themselves in the middle of cultural debates for years. The day after Nike’s ad drop (below), the stockRead more
Retail stocks have been on fire… in a good way. It’s been a great year for SFIX, WMT, ESTY, JWM, TJX, COST, LULU, and countless others. I guess Amazon hasn’t killed retail yet ;). Although I think the strength in retail will end soon, there are still opportunities for blowout earnings from a few namesRead more
PHOTO: ELISE AMENDOLA/ASSOCIATED PRESS It’s time to make an obvious point… no one can consistently predict markets – wasn’t this supposed to the be the year retail died? Amazon dominates, but other retailers have figured out how to compete, how to sell, and how to grow in this ever changing retail environment. Americans love to spendRead more
Everyone is buying ETFs and the popularity continues to grow as new ones are created every week. I’m a big fan and generally incorporate them into my long-term strategies. When the world is talking about an industry or macro trend, there is likely a good ETF that follows it. CNBC, for example, is a greatRead more
Well, that’s interesting. Inflation continues to surprise to the upside, but consumers
