The commodity space is the clear winner in 2021. This is especially true if you count Bitcoin as a commodity. But even if you don’t, the theme driving the headlines this year is all about inflation, supply chain constraints, and shortages of raw goods like oil, gas, copper, lumber, iron ore, and agricultural goods. As […]

Is the Oil Bull Ready to Start Squeezing? (VKIN, PXD, MTDR, FANG, HP, HES, OIH, XOP, CEI)
China issued a decree earlier this week to its power companies: start stockpiling coal. Many investors in the stock market don’t understand commodity markets fully, which is understandable. But it represents an important blind spot during a commodity-led bull market. And that’s clearly what we have in place right now. Commodity markets are up, in […]
Wall Street Braces for a Multi Trillion Dollar Catalyst (TSLA, KULR, NIO, BYDDY, BLNK, WKHS, QS, BATT)
The 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference, also known as COP26, is the 26th United Nations Climate Change conference. And it’s increasingly being seen as a potential game-changer for major asset classes as the research foundation grows pointing to the need for more aggressive action from wealthy nations to curb emissions and transition to a […]
Bitcoin Stocks: The ‘Heads You Win, Tails You Win’ Portfolio (RIOT, ISWH, SQ, HIVE, PYPL, OSTK, MSTR, MARA)
While skepticism on Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency space remains in place – which is healthy for the continuing bull market trend in the space – the group and theme face an interesting potential dynamic that could drive its next leg higher: we have seen outperformance in both “risk off” and “risk on” periods. Another way […]
These Supplements Stocks Deserve More Attention (USNA, GTEH, HLF, BRBR, CELH, SMPL, MSLP, WW)
The supplements and health foods marketplace is one of the most promising segments of the economy over coming years as sociocultural trends shift from curative to preventative health measures and a greater share of consumption shifts from baby boomers to millennials and zoomers. That generational shift is likely a major factor in analyst forecasts, which […]
The New Energy Crisis and the Stocks that Benefit (RRC, VKIN, LNG, CHK, DVN, CNX, CEI)
The energy crisis of 2021 is well underway, as natural gas in Europe and Asia come up well short of needs for the production of broad power, and other commodities, including crude oil, are pulled into the basic power equation at far higher than normal levels to compensate. Naturally, the main culprit is the pandemic […]
Why Small Biotech Stocks Top List of Potential Outperformers this Fall (GTHX, ATRX, SRPT, MGNX, CPRX, CLDX, BDSI, SAVA)
The smaller cap biotech space offers two key advantages for investors right now: cyclical diversification and diversification away from the vaccine monolithic theme. To break that down a bit, the stock market has been volatile over the past month, with many growth plays getting smacked down as risk comes off the table with Wall Street […]
Top Opportunities in the Cannabis Stock Space (ACB, NUGS, CGC, SNDL, GRWG, TLRY, IIPR, CRON)
The best traders know how to find stocks that investors will seek out on pullbacks. And the best investors know what stocks to seek out on pullbacks. Hence, differentiating between the two groups is a Keynesian Beauty Contest kind of process. Understanding how that contest works is about figuring out which trends are capable of […]
The Big Picture Take on Bitcoin and Bitcoin Stocks (RIOT, SQ, HIVE, PYPL, OSTK, MSTR, ISWH, MARA)
With Bitcoin seemingly clearly in the middling stages of a lateral triangle consolidation, it’s time to assess the big picture potential of the cryptocurrency investment thesis. First off, lateral symmetric triangle consolidations, to market technicians, are encouraging. They are almost never indicative of a major top. Just a stall, or a pause, as a market […]
Growth Stock Shopping List: Big Opportunity as Smart Home Tech Goes “On Sale” (AMZN, SPYR, ALRM, VVNT, HON, ADT, REZI, AAPL, GOOG)
News flash: “Long duration assets” are on sale in the equities market. What does that mean? It means companies with business models based on huge future growth because of revolutionary technology and changing consumer trends are getting tossed overboard lately, making them very cheap relative to their expected long-term potential. Why is it happening? Because […]
These stocks are beating the odds on Wall Street today (DBGI, SNOA, BLBX, GOGO, ALF, PLAG)
U.S. stocks fell on Tuesday, with tech names dragging down the Nasdaq and the broader markets as Treasury yields traded near three-month highs. The Nasdaq Composite was down 2%, and the S&P 500 shed 1.8.6%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 450 points, or about 1.3%. One of the most obvious statements available to that […]
Nat Gas Stocks to Watch as Energy Crisis Looms (COG, RRC, LNG, CHK, DVN, VKIN, CNX, CEI)
Natural gas prices are soaring as the world increasingly comes to terms with the coming energy crisis – one that already has Europe in its grasp. And it looks quite ready to spread to the rest of the world. Underproduction, poor logistics, and a move away from dirty coal sourcing for electricity and heat are […]
Cannabis Stocks: How Everything Just Changed this Week (GRWG, TLRY, NUGS, SNDL, CURLF, CGC, CRON, MSOS)
No one really argues against cannabis stocks on the basis of “perfect world” fundamentals. The forward demand curve is exceptional, and the legislative momentum is on their side. But there are hurdles – uncertainties. One of the most important such hurdles is the inability for banks to safely provide basic financial services to companies involved […]
The Evergrande Bitcoin Opportunity Could be Tasty for Nimble Traders (MARA, ISWH, RIOT, HIVE, CAN, OSTK, MSTR)
As default apparently looms for Chinese property mega-lender Evergrande, risk assets around the world are taking a beating and the dollar is rallying higher. It’s a classic risk-off flight to liquidity, and it’s hitting everything from small-cap stocks to the Aussie dollar to Bitcoin. This is a rerun from a thousand such moments in financial […]
Stocks Taking Center Stage on Wall Street (HLBZ,BLBX,NNVC,CRVS)
The SPY500 has bounced back over 150 points and looks like traders and investors are looking to buy the recent dip. Yesterday’s massive sell off was a result of uncertainty over the future of Evergrande. Chinese officials are expected to stem the spillover from liquidity issues at Evergrande, the country’s largest property developer, before it […]
