- Good morning everyone and
welcome to Tuesday Morning. .
- It's Stephen Whiteside here from the .
- uptrend.com in the pre market this
morning things are fairly quiet. .
- We're waiting for CPI numbers to come out
at 8:30 and of course those numbers could .
- influence the Fed meeting
which is starting today. .
- And so we're expecting things to be fairly .
- quiet until the Fed meeting at
02:00 P.m. Wednesday afternoon. .
- Looking at the CNN Fear and Greed Index,
we're at extreme greed at the moment and .
- of course you know that things are very
overbought at the present time, so it's .
- very risky to buy anything
new at these levels. .
- Now the VIX moved up yesterday looking for
a close on Tuesday above 15.90. So options .
- traders getting a little nervous
ahead of the CPI numbers. .
- Then we had the Dow Diamonds make a new .
- high for this move, heading up to the
highs from a couple of months ago. .
- New high for the S&P 500 for the Nasdaq,
100 on the back of a big move up in chips. .
- So Semiconductors still
leading this market higher. .
- Then looking at the Canadian market, .
- nothing going on here, we're
treading water in the channel. .
- So still on a short term buy signal here. .
- If you didn't take that buy signal, then .
- of course the next close above the
upper channel line would be helpful. .
- Breaking down the Canadian market. .
- It was the Infotech sector that tried to .
- pull us higher, while the energy
sector tried to pull us lower. .
- Looking at infotech. .
- It was Lightspeed followed by Shopify. .
- Those were the big winners. .
- Looking at the big losers, it was
Vermilion traded down to the lower channel .
- line, so still looking
for a close below 1559. .
- And then we've got Athabasca and
Cenovus Energy were the next big losers .
- and both of them are back on sell
signals as of Monday's close. .
- Looking at the US market, similar
situation where the Infotech sector led us .
- higher while energy was
trying to pull us back down. .
- Now the big winner in Infotech was
Broadcom, which was up over 6% on the day. .
- On the Dow it was Intel was
the big winner up over 5%. .
- And on the SP 500 after Broadcom, we
had Oracle up nearly 6% on the day. .
- So those were the big
winners in the tech sector. .
- Looking at Tesla, tesla had an inside
day, still trying to break through 250. .
- It's trading just above
it this morning at 251. .
- 50. .
- So we're trying to break out. .
- If we can do that, then 265. .
- 63 would be our next target
to the upside for Tesla. .
- Let's finish off this morning's
presentation looking at the most popular .
- commodity ETFs, starting with the USO,
which had a big down day yesterday. .
- So we are back on a sell
signal for the USO. .
- Back on a sell signal for gasoline,
still on a sell signal for natural gas. .
- That would change on Tuesday with a close
above 6.44. Then looking at the GLD still .
- on a sell signal here that would change
on Tuesday with a close above 182. .
- 96. .
- Not expecting a buy signal for
Palladium or for Platinum on Tuesday. .
- And we still have silver on a buy signal
that would change on Tuesday with a close .
- below $21.62. Okay, folks, that is
all for this morning's presentation. .
- I'm going to be out of the office for the
rest of the day, so I'm going to miss .
- whatever volatility we see from the
CPI numbers at 830 this morning. .
- Have a great day. .
- Next time you'll hear my voice
is on Wednesday morning. .
