- Good Morning, everyone.
Welcome to Tuesday morning. .
- It's Stephen Whiteside
here from theuptrend. .
- com. .
- In the premarket this morning, stock index
futures are slightly below fair value .
- while commodities are slightly
higher on Tuesday morning. .
- Let's start off this morning's .
- presentation taking a look at
the fear index or the VIX. .
- It's still on a sell signal traded up
yesterday looking for a close of about .
- 14.74. A close of about 1474 can certainly
disturb the market, but to really get the .
- big cap tech stocks to roll
over, we need the VIX above 18. .
- Looking at the US dollar index, of
course, we made a new low on Friday. .
- We closed slightly lower yesterday,
didn't take out that low. .
- Fairly calm, quiet day in the bond market. .
- Bond yields pretty stable.
Y yesterday. .
- Looking at gold, gold
was down $8 yesterday. .
- It's up $10 in the pre
market this morning. .
- Silver is having trouble breaking away .
- from $25, which of course,
was our next price target. .
- So we seem to be stuck there right now. .
- And with the metals, copper pulled
back, closed in the channel on Monday. .
- Of course, that's not helpful
for the mining sector. .
- We saw crude oil pulled back yesterday. .
- It is higher in the pre market this .
- morning, trading up to the 200
day moving average and stopping. .
- So looking for a breakout above
the 200 day moving average. .
- We do have a new early warning signal
there for crude oil, so getting suspicious .
- about our chances of
moving higher from here. .
- Natural gas closed slightly lower
yesterday, no change there. .
- We really need to see a breakout above the .
- fly paper channel for anything
new to happen in natural gas. .
- Then looking at the TSX, it made a new
high on Friday, but it was a bearish .
- reversal day and we saw fall
through to the downside yesterday. .
- This is bullish, the fact that we made a
higher low and a higher high last week. .
- That is bullish. .
- A breakdown of the lower trend line or the
uptrend line there would certainly be an .
- indication that something bad is is going
to happen for the Canadian stock market. .
- Now, the DOW made a new high yesterday. .
- S&p 500 made a new high. .
- Nasdaq made a new closing high. .
- We had a big reversal in semiconductors, .
- which sold off on Friday,
came right back on Monday. .
- Well, times have certainly changed, and
certainly over the past 20 years, we've .
- seen a lot of new stocks
take leadership positions in the market. .
- The Communication Services Index
is a relatively new S&P index. .
- It made a new high on .
- Thursday, pulled back on Friday, and
a continued pull back on Monday. .
- Not a big move down on Monday. .
- We're still on a buy signal here. .
- A couple of stocks which used to be market .
- leaders, and if they did this 20 years
ago, would have certainly shaken the .
- market to see AT&T sell off like this,
Verizon sell off, and even in the Canadian .
- market, huge sell off for Bell and a
couple of bad days for Telus as well. .
- The market doesn't seem to be overly .
- concerned at the moment,
and times have changed. .
- The focus has changed, and these stocks .
- aren't as important to the
market as they used to be. .
- They are certainly big stocks, but .
- they certainly aren't scaring
the market at the moment. .
- There are other stocks in this sector
and we saw Meta trade higher yesterday. .
- We also saw Netflix trade
higher and even Fox. .
- Fox making a new high for this move. .
- Even with all Fox's legal problems, I .
- guess it's not really their problems,
it's their insurance company's problems. .
- But yeah, those stocks making new highs
while the big telephone companies, those .
- legacy telephone companies,
sold off sharply on Monday. .
- Looking at some of the most actively .
- traded US stocks, we saw Tesla
make a new high yesterday. .
- We had AMD up, not enough to take out .
- Friday's high, but certainly
closed higher on the day. .
- We traded down to the lower channel line, .
- so a close below 112.17 give
us a sell signal on Tuesday. .
- Inside day for NVIDIA. .
- Then Marathon Digital, new early warning .
- signal up there trading down
to the upper channel line. .
- Looking for a close on Tuesday below 15. .
- 59, that would give us a new sell signal. .
- Similar situation for Rivian, new early .
- warning signal there trading
down to the upper channel line. .
- Looking for a close on Tuesday below
2180 to give us a sell signal. .
- Taking a look at some of the Canadian most
actively traded stocks, we've got .
- Enbridge back on a sell
signal as of Monday's close. .
- So pretty ugly looking chart there. .
- Similar looking chart for TC Energy series .
- of lower highs, and now we're
making another lower low. .
- Then looking at TD Bank,
a new high for TD Bank. .
- Last week, if you were looking up,
84.38 was our next price target. .
- We got as high as 84.35 yesterday, so we .
- didn't hit our price
target off by three cents. .
- Remember, anytime you're looking at a .
- price target, you're looking at a place
where people are going to sell, and some .
- people will put their orders
in under those levels. .
- And it looks like that's
what happened yesterday. .
- But we probably hit 84.38 on Tuesday. .
- Then looking at Suncor, we're second
day of a sell signal for Suncor. .
- Then we've got Canadian Natural Resources .
- back on a sell signal
as of Monday's close. .
- And then Shopify
closed slightly higher on the day. .
- A bearish reversal day on Friday. .
- Yesterday was a positive day for the .
- stock, so not a significant
bearish reversal day on Friday. .
- We're looking to see
if we can take it out. .
- Now, if you had an order in at
93.75 on Friday, it got filled. .
- We had a high of 93.83
on Friday for Shopify. .
- Anytime there's a bearish reversal signal, .
- we're looking for fall through
to the downside on the next day. .
- That signal is still in place until we .
- close above Friday's high of
93.83. So if we close above 93. .
- 83 on Tuesday, then that bearish reversal
signal can get thrown in the garbage. .
- Otherwise, as long as we
don't close above 93.83, .
- then that bearish reversal signal is still .
- in play and could mark the top for
this particular move for Shopify. .
- Okay, folks, that is all
for Tuesday morning. .
- Looks like we're going to have a fairly
quiet open at 9 30 Tuesday morning. .
- Have a great day and the next time you'll .
- hear my voice, it's going
to be on Wednesday morning. .
