Cheap Calls on Bitcoin, Cheap Puts on Wells Fargo
Charlie here. Licia's picks this week are a tale of two setups you probably wouldn't pair together at first glance. One's a momentum chart coiling up for a breakout, with cheap calls sitting there like they're on clearance. The other is a big, boring bank that just reported earnings and is quietly breaking down right […]
Blackstone bounces. Mosaic burns.
Deliver Me a Good Name, Please One of the best-run companies in the USA is Blackstone Inc (BX). Lately, though, all the private equity names got squeezed because Blue Owl Capital (OWL) had to suspend withdrawals for a while. As far as I can tell, BX does not have that problem. Yet the stock went […]
What If a Peace Deal Is the Top?
Hi Traders, Our first session of the 0 and 1 DTE intensive class on Wednesday was a huge success. If you didn't join, here's the good news: Today Licia and I are putting on a live trade, and you have the chance to join us. If you're not registered to join us at 2 pm […]
The Cheapest Entertainment on Earth Still Has Room to Run
Dear Income traders, Netflix may be one of the cheapest forms of entertainment on the planet. That matters. In a world where households are rethinking spending, very few people look at Netflix and say, that’s the expense I need to cut. It is low-cost, habit-forming, and used constantly. That is a powerful combination. And Netflix […]
Is this rally missing one key ingredient?
Hey Traders, Yesterday was a booming day for markets. They shot out of the gate higher, getting near a three percent gain at the peak. The Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) shot up well past three percent at its high. Neither index closed at the highs, but both closed strong. The S&P 500 (SPX) is back to […]
One Chart Screaming Buy, One Screaming Sell
Hey, Charles here. Licia Leslie is back with her weekly One to Love, One to Leave. And this week's picks sit on opposite sides of the same question: what happens when hype meets reality? On the call side, she found a stock that does something no other American company can do at scale. The kind […]
A Stock Going Up While Everything Else Drops
Hey, Charles here. Andrew Giovinazzi ran his scanner through this mess of a market and came back with two names going in opposite directions. One is a delivery company quietly climbing while everything else bleeds. The other is a former tech darling sliding toward 52-week lows with no floor in sight. Same turbulent tape, two […]
She called the last two sell offs before anyone else
“That guy has called 20 of the last three sell offs.” That’s an old saying from the floor. We used it to describe the permabears. You know the type: they tell you stocks are going to get cut in half, the US is going to collapse, and the only solution is buy gold. Or maybe […]
The VIX is warning you about next week
What a week for the markets. Monday and Friday set us up for potential disaster. We limped into Tuesday thinking things could get very, very, very bad. Then Tuesday brought a glimmer of hope with “Hey, maybe things aren’t that bad.” Wednesday delivered a big, giant rally with solid follow-through. But what caught me completely […]
One Stock at Rock Bottom, One Near the Top
Hey, Charles here. Andrew Giovinazzi has a thing for timing cycles. Not predicting them. Recognizing when you're in one. This week he's got two names that sit on opposite ends of the same idea. One stock has been beaten down by regulation, tagged its 52-week low twice, and is starting to bounce. The other rode […]
