A Value-Oriented Rotation

Stocks are currently experiencing their longest pullback since July.  Last week delivered a bruising session for the bulls. A late-day rally on Friday provided some relief, but without it, the damage would have been far more severe. The rotations I observed last week send a clear signal. Investors are showing a genuine appetite for value

Check Out this U.S. Index (Not a Bubble)

Hello TheoTrader, Bubbles, bubbles, bubbles. It’s probably the word I’m hearing thrown around the most in trading circles right now. If anything, there’s a bubble in people calling markets a bubble. Are there areas of the market where bubbles exist? Absolutely. I get the obsession over the indices, AI, and the Mag 7 – this

Time to Start Giving Thanks to Tech

The final two-month stretch of 2025 begins.  Bulls couldn’t be in a better position heading into year-end based on what I’m seeing in the market’s internals. The laundry list of reasons to be concerned about the state of the market continues to grow, but if anything, it speaks to the truth of a bull market

It’s Do-or-Die Time for Crypto

Hello TheoTrader, The crypto community has largely replaced the old gold bug community.  Every downtick gets blamed on manipulation. Every rally becomes proof of superior investing skill. We’ve had strong success trading crypto this year.  Based on what I’m seeing now, we’re at the most critical moment since April. This asset class faces a do-or-die

And There Goes Tech (Again)

All-time highs across the board for stocks.  Last Monday, I pointed out how the market internals had settled down from their brief defensive rotation. Now we have the exact sector signal we were looking for. This latest sector development marks just the beginning.  We’re entering the most bullish time of year.  Bulls have sent the

The Quantum Computing Trade

Last November, I told members inside the Trinity Trade chat to start building positions in Rigetti Computing.  The stock was trading just over a dollar. The thesis was straightforward. Quantum computing represented an emerging technology sector with massive institutional attention, government backing, and the kind of volatility that creates real trading opportunities. What followed was

Market Internals Settle Down

The Nasdaq 100 closed at its highest weekly level in history on Friday. This happened despite last week’s dramatic headlines suggesting otherwise. That development does not signal impending doom. The Tale of the Tape on Monday confirms what the data has been showing. We remain in a bull market. Some cautionary money flows have emerged

Bears Are Flat Out Wrong

People panic when they don’t have a plan. That’s probably why I’m not worried. The market’s less than 2% off all-time highs, yet everyone’s acting like the sky is falling. Trade war fears. Banking crisis 2.0. The AI bubble supposedly bursting (again). We heard the exact same thing in August. If that were true, then

Is the Defensive Rotation Complete?

Hello TheoTrader, Friday’s selloff caught everyone’s attention. Even as stocks kept hitting new all-time highs over the past two weeks, I warned in this column that defensive rotations were taking place underneath the surface. This hasn’t changed my bullish stance. We need to think across multiple timeframes simultaneously. Last week, those defensive money flows continued.

Do You Suffer From Big Short Syndrome?

The market dropped 1.5% yesterday after Trump threatened massive tariff increases on China. Tech stocks got hammered. Nvidia fell 2%, AMD dropped over 5%, and Tesla shed more than 3%. The bubble callers are out in force right now, claiming they were right all along. Here’s the problem. The S&P 500 just posted its worst decline since August, but the index is still sitting near record highs after a clean uptrend over the past few months. The traders screaming about bubbles didn’t make money on this drop. They’ve been sitting on the sidelines or worse, bleeding capital on short positions while the market climbed higher week after week. Now they’re pointing at one red day as vindication for missing months of gains. I call this “Big Short Syndrome.” It’s destroying trading accounts across the market right now. Traders have been screaming about bubbles everywhere lately. They claim we’re in a
