Last week's sell off has put some of our long positions into a bit more precarious positions on their charts. I am going to list the names who we have to watch closely. Tactically I enjoy buying stocks as they fall back to support, which puts me at odds with 90% of Wall Street (and their machines) which seems to be all about momentum chasing (buy high, sell higher). The issue with my strategy is what is a stock falling back to its support Tuesday is a stock that breaks support Wednesday. And/or a stock that bounces right back over support by Friday. So we get whipsawed a lot around the...

    Comparing Breadth Between This & Last Bull Market

    While this bear market has unique hallmarks, there is something rather familiar about it. We’ve already covered many of the uncanny similarities between the last cyclical bull market and today’s market action.

    For example, they both bottomed in March and the two charts look like they were separated at birth. The there’s the ensuing flag formation which played out in the same familiar way this year, as it had 6 years ago. And finally, there is the extreme breadth thrusts which are showing an intense, broad based rally pushing the stock market higher.

    Avago: 4 Analysts Launch Coverage
    N/A

    Four analysts today issued their first reports on analog chip vendor Avago Technologies (AVGO) - a one-time Agilent (A) unit - and before that a Hewlett-Packard (HPQ) unit - which came public in August at $15 a share.

    <><>Citigroup analyst Terence Whalen rates the stock Hold, with a $21 price target. He has a positive view of the analog sector, and says the company has “solid management and shows impressive, competitive execution.” But also says the company has below-group average operating margin leverage, and low visibility on the company’s move into the wireline telephony sector. He sees the <><><><><><><><><>< /><>< /><>< /><>< /><>< />< />...

    Marvel’s Friday night dump…

    images12.jpegWe don’t mean to drone on about the Disney (DIS) Marvel (MVL) marriage — really we don’t, especially since we’re feeling well-rested after a nice week at the beach. But we couldn’t help it after spotting this 8-K filed late Friday before the long holiday weekend.

    <>At just over 100 pages, it doesn’t compete for length or have the level of finger-pointing that the SEC Inspector General’s 477-page Madoff report does (which was also released late Friday). But it does have some interesting tidbits in it, like the agreements with Chief Executive Isaac Perlmutter, CFO Kenneth West, and EVP<><><><><><>< /><><>< />< /><>< /><><>< /><>< /><>< /><>< /><>< />< />...
