Hey Traders,
Every Monday, my team and I gather for the Ticker Highlight Show – where we share our favorite and least favorite stocks of the week and give away a FREE, simple directional trade based on one of them.
I know I might sound like a broken record, but I truly believe a major opportunity is on the horizon — it’s just a matter of time. Let me explain.
Last week, both the S&P 500 and the QQQ reached new all-time highs.
We reached new highs 3 times and closed at an all-time high on Thursday.
QQQs are pretty much the same:
IWM continues to lag:
The all-time high for the Russell 2000 is near 250, which implies more than a 10% upside if the market continues to move higher. For the market to keep advancing, the RUT will need to lead the way.
I know I sound like a bit of a broken record, but given time, this opportunity could pay off handsomely.
Looking at the current market, there’s one stock whose rally seems to be getting long in the tooth: AMD.
It’s had a monster rally over the past few weeks. I’m not expecting a sharp drop, but I do think it could pull back below 150, possibly retesting the 21-day moving average around 145.
On the upside, I’m closely watching NXE.
This nuclear energy company appears to be making a strong recovery.
I’ve noticed significant bullish activity in NXE, including a notable large call spread in November executed just last Thursday:
I think this could be one to set aside and revisit next month.
Be sure to join us for our Ticker Highlight Show on Tuesday at 10 a.m. ET!
See you then,
Mark
