Rarely will you see me give any real credence to any fundamental market metric. Company P/E ratios, earnings per share, free cash flow… These just don’t factor in to my trading style. I’m far more interested in where the money’s moving in the short term, and none of those stats can tell me that. But today, in the face of what’s likely to be a far deeper, far more painful bear market… I make an exception. If you’ve read my work for any length of time, you know I’m a technical analyst. (If you haven’t read my work, that means[…]

For 100 years, a metal hook held up wires and insulators along the Feather River Canyon, California. After a century’s worth of wind, rain and snow wearing it down, it eventually broke in half. When the live wire fell, it ignited the dry brush below, setting off a huge wildfire. The fire spread with a speed that was absolutely impossible to contain, killing more than 100 people. And the fire razed hundreds of thousands of acres of vineyards and forest. In her latest book, California Burning: The Fall of Pacific Gas and Electric and What it Means for America’s Power[…]

Maybe it’s just me, but 2022 has passed in the blink of an eye. We’re in a race to New Year’s. Halloween is behind us, Thanksgiving just ahead, and hot on its heels — the holiday season! It’s also the time of year when I have way too much candy on hand. Everything from Hershey bars to Reese’s peanut butter cups. My children are only 4 and 2, but this Halloween was their biggest candy haul of all time. Between their school’s “trunk-or-treat” event and trick-or-treating in our neighborhood, they each have two buckets filled to the brim! (Needless to[…]

I’ve read a lot of books on the markets. Most won’t teach you anything you don’t already know. A rare few hold insights you’ll never forget. And some books are so wrong, they unintentionally lead you to an opposite strategy that actually works well. Among this last group is Burton Malkiel’s A Random Walk Down Wall Street. In it, the Princeton economist describes the stock market as a drunken sailor. Malkiel asks the reader to picture a sailor on a corner. He wants to cross the street.
