All things STOCKS

Correct to this point

55 minutes in, heavy volume buying most everywhere. Except my freaking health insurance companies which are having a -5% type of week. Perhaps a Republican House is not good for health care business? Or, good for health care but not good for insurance profits.

I still have my doubts that Microsoft, Apple, Telsa, Amazon are going very far. The 2020-2021 era 'growth companies' with outrageous valuations remain over-priced I think.
 
I am also surprised that Apple is up 2.5%

Not really sure what that even means...? Besides, the institutions seem to be loading up on most everything. Got to meet the quotas.
 
when you consider the narrative for this week and the fed's minutes combined with the employment report, this enitre market upswing is gonna be a rug pull. nothing else makes sense.

Maybe....the volume is slowing a bit.

Or, Mr. Optimism would offer....we hit bottom...lulz!

Even Mr Optimism thinks bottom is when SPY hits around 340ish. Another 6-8 weeks out in the best case scenario.
 
orrr everyone is so bearish is gonna cause a squeeze. v possible. i've never read about a recession being this forecasted before.
 
AAPL wasn’t much competition on the business side for MSFT/INTC in the desktop world. Used to be that financial and administrative was exclusively PC based while Apple was the preference for creative types of workers. But moving processing from desktops and LANs to cloud computing platforms has changed that business model. Plus AAPL has been far more innovative. AAPL seems to be doing a better job of simplifying connectivity across their devices.

Starting to look like we are getting a squeeze on Apple.

Can't be this much real interest. Especially after that Samsung report was hot garbage

There is so much money in FAANG, huge tech, NASDAQ, and S&P funds that the biggest market cap names almost have to continue upward. Especially those that are profitable.

S&P looking slightly positive. Bitcoin is having a good bounce off of their recent bottom. I’d like to see both put together several positive weeks.

A slow and steady uptrend would be a nice change after some recent violence - both up and down.

Slow and steady uptrend is what I’d like to see. The big moves up invariably are countered with big moves down soon afterwards.

I concur. Looks like we are going to at least start that direction today.

What are the big events this week? I know we have banking coming up to lead off earnings season.
 
I am kind of a deer in headlights right now with my routine of selling 1-2 week to expiration options. We’ve come down too far for me to comfortably sell covered calls. Might be time to buy a few.

I’d rather sell more cash secured puts, but these rapid drops are just ugly. TSLA especially.
