As we’ve been saying for quite some time, this is not a safe market. Today’s plunge was proof of that. But what’s scary is that it’s far from over. We just broke late 2014 support could very easily plunge to 16,000. We have to be prepared for anything. Our DIA...

I’ve been involved in the market for 16 years… With the exception of the subprime fiasco that helped me capture some incredible gains using put options on the overall market and subprime, Alt-A names, Bear Stearns and Lehman Brothers, I’ve never seen a market quite...

The worst isn’t over… It’s only jut begun. The Dow had just broken previous support, we warned, and could send the Dow to 17,250 unless something big happens. Since then, the Dow attempted to stage a move higher on nothing. But that has since failed as we now...

There’s just no rhyme or reason to the market these days… China, Puerto Rico, Greece, Russia, Iran, oil, gold… you name it. And it’s making a mess of the market. The Dow fell 200 yesterday. We’re down another 90 today… after challenging historic resistance that’s...

We weren’t shocked by the massive sell-off earlier this week. We were expecting it. We knew Greece was trouble. Earlier this week, traders were excited over the possibility of growth in Greece. Shortly after the inevitable news was released, that joy turned to...

While I wish all trades could be as easy as the ZUMZ trade – which returned a quick 150% gain – that’s not always the case. We may have had some great success stories over the years, but recently losses take their toll, too. I’m not concerned, though. I’m still...

It took a lot of patience and banging my head against the wall to understand how a stock like AMBA could accelerate to such nosebleed levels on nothing. Then, Citron Research jumped in and noted the price wasn’t based on reality, citing the company’s absurd valuation....

After breaking to new high of 2130, the S&P 500 found heavy resistance, as persistent economic fears and worries of a 2015 rate hike gave way to selling pressure. We knew that if the 50-day was broken to the downside, the next area of support was 2075. That’s...

The Dow slipped well under its 50-day moving average. It’s now challenging prior support. If it fails that support, we could drop to 17,612, which we’ve long talked about. In the meantime, we are holding all of the new trades issued as part of the special report. On...
