Be careful in this market - $UVXY will take off - Market update 8-22-22
https://anchor.fm/dailystockpick/support
$SPY view - I see it as overbought - the chart was posted on Twitter to follow along with what I see
$Ung $lng $boil - all of these have had epic runs
$Spxu- has been the play
$TSLA raising self driving to $15k from $12k …. I just don’t see fsd as worth jt but enhanced autopilot is
$Uvxy - play may be good because of the lack of resistance on the upside - the market needs a vix spike
$Drv up big
$Mu - down (since we were asked about it last week)
$AMC $gme and $bbby way down - $ape dividend not dilution so it has no value
$Vet up
SCANS
$OXY was a hit on Friday - the algo has a buy in at $63 - you’re close to your 10% gain now from this level so take profits.
$PFE
$SGEN - $171 - a biotech company only 10% below it’s 52 week high - 13% above the 200 day - all on finviz.com
$FANG crossed up again in this run
$SGFY

Buy this ETF to make money on the S&P pullback coming - Market Update 8-19-22
$SPXU I recommended yesterday - with the premarket down and crypto crashing, I think you should be able to make money on this ETF.
For grant…. $DE or $WM
$DE down after missing earnings
$FL is flying after beating
For Willy - $RUN with solar and energy and $dell has earnings coming up
What do I think of some of the stocks that have gone down on earnings … will they come back
$Nvda earnings on thr 24th … Amat blew it away and rose … even though nvda guided lower could it come in with or better than expected?
$Clf
$Qcom
$Apph
$Cvna - caravana - ziptrader Charlie suggested that it’s shown some bounce so is it a good deal?
Price to sales from macro trends is .3 which is all time low
But the debt and bubble with massive inventory dilution makes it worthless
$Bbby - rug pull
Crypto nosedive literally all of a sudden
$Meta - talk about how Roblox is winning at meta verse and tik tok is winning short form … so meta is right now a bet and is trading at value - could be an opportunity but it might just not be the dominant player. It did meet with apple and a partnership would be huge
Definitely weakest of the fang stocks
I may have been a day off on spxu
$UPRO - bull
$SPXU - bear
$SPXL - bull

This Bull market may be in for at turn - Why I like $SPXU - Market Update 8-18-22
SUPPORT ME HERE - anchor.fm/dailystockpick/support
Suggest having a balanced portfolio - that can be buying an ETF - it could also mean buying the leader in each sector. Use Finviz to look at the S&P chart.
Wrong about $UVXY - but it’s not about just buying and hoping - do not follow a guy on the internet
$DRV Cross up
Carter worth says sell all your $AAPL - Joe T says it will end the year over $200
He says the gain is too steep without a correction - 1 year and 5 year vs $qqq - apple has more than doubled others
He thinks people are hiding in apple and when they get out apple will pullback
$Bbby - Ryan Cohen selling his entire stake …. This is a rug pull … stock will continue to crash back to $5
Germany has worked to shore up winter gas supplies — and it's ahead of schedule

Natural Gas is still running - $BOIL - Market update 8-17-22
$TGT missed
$LOW meets
We are going to chop around - 2pm minutes of fed meeting comes out but it’s from a July meeting where we still saw bad things … the market is expecting a 50 point hike but if they do 75 we might see the pullback
$BBBY is crazy …. Ryan Cohen bought huge options way out of thr money at $60 and $80 per share
It’s up another 25% today … but there is no reason for it to be there … thr rug pull could happen if they issue shares …
$Zim down - buy on weakness
Elon teeeted he was buying $MANU and then said it was a joke
Buy the dip on $TSLA - Squawksquare on Twitter says - big TSLAnaire
Weekly mortgage demand down to lowest level in 22 years - down 18% annually
Refi down 82% from this time last year - $dvn at some point goes up when the market goes down
Housing starts are at a 17 year low - housing organizations are saying we are in a housing recession
$Boil is way up again - look at lng too
$COST is a good retailer to play
$Pbr
SCANS
$TWLO
$KIND - Nextdoor - the alt right home of Karens

Buy energy on this weakness - market update 8-15-22
I think buying energy on weakness today is the play. With oil at $88/barrel you're looking at close to the lows IMO.
$MU for Liam
$Zip for Brian - earnings coming up and employment market
Earnings this week will be key … remember as traders a key is patience - don’t force a trade just to trade - have a plan and execute it - if things go wrong always have an exit strategy too
$WMT $LOW $HD $TGT
Maybe start a newsletter … I have that and video on my to do list
Oil down $4 to $88 - which means all our energy plays are down …. Buy them on weakness - Saudi said they could increase output but Dec russian sanctions and China demand are still lingering
Look at $uco down 10%
China cut rates after their economy slowed and numbers were weak … every other central bank is raising rates with inflation around the world ….
$AAPL testing ads in their apps … with their base this could be huge for the stock
$FPX $DVN $OXY $CVX $XOM $MRO $FANG all down 3%-4% - buy on weakness
$TSLA - made 3 million cars
Scans
$Nke at $115
$Tgt $172
$Qcom
$Orcl
$Amat
$Sedg
$Rblx - interesting that I saw a report over the weekend that the only place creators are making money in the meta verse is Roblox and not meta because roblux has the users

Nat gas is down - boil had a huge day yesterday - $boil cross up at 98.14 - but remember I don’t like to trade it that way
Most recessions don’t have oil demand going down - it goes up even during the recession
China is still in lockdown which is why demand is low overall - most likely not price demand destruction
Emergency reserves are still being used and needs to be refilled - spr - 150 million barrels so far - as soon as that stops and Russia sanctions start - and China opens - boom
And us is expected to have many more people going back to the office after Labor Day
$ARKK fav $ILMN
$AAPL tells suppliers to make as many iPhones as they did this year suggesting demand is still high
$Tqqq
$Rivn
Inside buys for the week
$ET chairman bought $30m of shares ….. 3rd biggest inside buy in the last 5 years- stock is 20% off the highs so he’s buying in to strength
Redbox is now chicken soup for the soul -$csse
$Mrna pullback
And guys … I’ve had a lot of winners lately but that’s the market … realize that during the down days it was tough to find winners and my long term portfolio was down. I probably should track my portfolio separate with buy and hold vs trading but I look at overall and I’m down 13.6% ytd …. So if you’re up in the past 2 months like me it feels good but I do think we are heading back down so just make sure you’re comfortable with your portfolio … if you aren’t now is the time to fix it while it’s up … not when it’s down
But earnings next week with wmt hd low target and many others … remember they disappointed last … that could be a trigger for thr market to come down - we will find out how the consumer looks and how inventories are for back to school
$Siga still up
Cross ups
$CVX
$VET
$SGML
$PLL
$PBR for the dividend

Disney earnings and crazy lithium stocks - market update 8-11-22
$DIS - up 5% yesterday and 10% today - hope you bought even though it was a strong run up.
$VET reports after the bell and could be crazy - so does RIVN - who has had a run up with the recent inflation bill - the valuation is still crazy and I’d rather see people in TSLA
stocks are ready to take off again because of a decline in producer price index - the cost of goods - GOING DOWN! Again - gas prices have been held down (despite me thinking they will go up)
REMEMBER - TRADE THE TREND - you can’t time things
Scans
$Abt
$Etsy
$Pfe
$Msft
$Nflx
$Hpq

$MO - interesting
Lithium stocks that have been going NUTS - $SGML and $PLL
