-
00:00:00Hello, everyone.
-
00:00:01It's Stephen Whiteside here from TheUpTrend.
-
00:00:03com.
-
00:00:04In this presentation, we're going to focus on the Magnificent Seven stocks, but we're
-
00:00:08going to start off by taking a look at the VIX and then looking at the major ETF's,
-
00:00:12and then we'll work our way down to the individual stocks themselves.
-
00:00:17Now, we saw fear rise this week, and we've got the VIX back on a daily buy signal.
-
00:00:21Of course, that's negative for stocks now coming into this week, the VIX was already
-
00:00:26on a weekly buy signal, and it hadn't shrugged off the, the volatility
-
00:00:30that we saw back in August.
-
00:00:32And so we came into this week long term bearish on the market, certainly willing
-
00:00:37to give the market the benefit of the doubt that it could continue to move
-
00:00:41up into the middle of September.
-
00:00:43Seasonality wise.
-
00:00:45We look for some selling in September into October, and then hopefully we can
-
00:00:50catch a ride up into the year end.
-
00:00:53Now, what did we know and when did we know it?
-
00:00:56Well, on our daily Panic Zone chart for the Nasdaq 100, you can see the last time
-
00:01:00an early warning signal went off and we started to move lower from that point.
-
00:01:05More significant, though, is back in the summer and for all of 2024, we were
-
00:01:10looking for a move up to $500, and we got that in July and then started to sell off.
-
00:01:17We came back up and only made it to the lower target, the 484.
-
00:01:2338 level.
-
00:01:24And so, you know, anytime you put in a lower high, that's not
-
00:01:27usually pretty for the market.
-
00:01:29Now, we've already broken through our first target to the downside.
-
00:01:32So 437.
-
00:01:3250 would be our next target to the downside for the Nasdaq 100.
-
00:01:37Now, while we were up hitting resistance, we also put in a bearish reversal day, and
-
00:01:42that's usually, that can usually mark the top of a move in the market.
-
00:01:46Now, here we are.
-
00:01:47The Nasdaq 100 is on a sell signal right now and made a new low
-
00:01:51for this move on Friday.
-
00:01:52I don't know what strategies you're employing, whether you're short the Nasdaq
-
00:01:56itself, your long puts, short calls, or if you're short the Magnificent Seven
-
00:02:02ETF itself, which was down 3.
-
00:02:0589% on Friday.
-
00:02:06Of course, the 2X bull ETF's are all on sell signals.
-
00:02:10The 2X bears are back on buy signals right now.
-
00:02:13The 3X bull ETF's are back on sell signals.
-
00:02:16The 3X bears, of course, are back on buy signals.
-
00:02:20There's individual sector ETF's as well.
-
00:02:23For technology, it could be long the bear for that sector.
-
00:02:27Of course, there's always the 3X Fang ETF, which was up nearly 12% on Friday.
-
00:02:33So a nice move there.
-
00:02:35Of course, for all of these ETF's we have profit targets and so you should
-
00:02:39have got an order filled at 28. 13.
-
00:02:41Next target to the upside is 31. 25.
-
00:02:44You want to put an order in up there ahead of time, of course.
-
00:02:48And if it was me, I'd probably put it at 31.
-
00:02:5019 instead of the 25.
-
00:02:53Put it a little less than the target itself.
-
00:02:56Now, looking at the Magnificent Seven stocks, they're still heavily
-
00:02:59weighted in the major indices.
-
00:03:01They're still the biggest publicly traded companies in the world.
-
00:03:04I think Apple is the most widely held company and the most
-
00:03:07valuable at the moment.
-
00:03:10Of course, it was Nvidia for the longest time.
-
00:03:12And then that has recently changed as chip stocks have started to sell off.
-
00:03:17I think Apple's nearly 500 times the value of American Airlines.
-
00:03:21So it's quite a big force in the market and being widely held.
-
00:03:27If Apple starts to sell off aggressively, it's included in just about every
-
00:03:32index, ETF and mutual fund out there.
-
00:03:35So it could dramatically pull the market down.
-
00:03:38Now so far Apple has been holding up fairly well.
-
00:03:40It's been on a sell signal for four days now.
-
00:03:43It's still stuck to 225.
-
00:03:45The high of the day on Friday was 225. 24.
-
00:03:48If it takes out Wednesday's low, then look for a move to down to 212.
-
00:03:5250 as our next target and then ultimately down to 200.
-
00:03:57Now, Amazon flip flopped this week, but probably the most important thing on this
-
00:04:01chart is the fact that it put in lower highs.
-
00:04:03So we had a high back in the start of July, then low at the end of July, then
-
00:04:09another lower low in August, and now another lower low in September.
-
00:04:14Now we're looking down.
-
00:04:16If we take out the recent low at 168 75, then 162.
-
00:04:2050 would be our next target.
-
00:04:22Then looking at Alphabet, new low for Alphabet.
-
00:04:25They're heading down towards 150.
-
00:04:27If that breaks, 137.
-
00:04:2850 would be our next target.
-
00:04:30Then looking at Meta, Meta's put in a double top here.
-
00:04:34It came down aggressively on Friday, hit the $500 level and closed at $500.
-
00:04:4027. If we take out 500, then 468.
-
00:04:4375 would be our next target.
-
00:04:46Then looking at Microsoft, Microsoft broke down below 462.
-
00:04:4950 on Friday.
-
00:04:50We're still stuck to it, 390.
-
00:04:5263 is our next target.
-
00:04:54To the downside then looking at Nvidia, Nvidia had a very bad week still
-
00:05:00trading and closing above $100.
-
00:05:02The low on Friday was $100. 95.
-
00:05:05That's a big psychological number for the market.
-
00:05:07If Nvidia starts breaking down below that, the low from a few weeks
-
00:05:12ago, it is down at 90. 69.
-
00:05:15If that breaks, then 87.
-
00:05:1750 would be our next target and then possibly down to 75.
-
00:05:20But we haven't broken 100 yet, so don't get overly excited just yet.
-
00:05:26Now, this is the Magnificent Seven list.
-
00:05:28But we do add shopify in to give the list a little Canadian flavor.
-
00:05:32It is the fourth biggest company in Canada by market cap at the moment.
-
00:05:37And it's not a company that's going to change the world.
-
00:05:40It's just a shopping cart, basically.
-
00:05:43But here we are looking at the New York listing.
-
00:05:46It's been down sharply this week.
-
00:05:47Broke down below 68. 75.
-
00:05:50If we want to keep going.
-
00:05:51Of course we've got 62.
-
00:05:5250, but then we've got the bottom of the open gap there.
-
00:05:56That could act as a potential area of support.
-
00:05:59We're starting to break down below the 200 day moving average.
-
00:06:02You can see we ran up and found resistance at the high from the start of March.
-
00:06:06That's also true for the TSX listing.
-
00:06:09And there we are starting to break down below the two to day moving average.
-
00:06:13And the low from or the top of that open gap is at 87.
-
00:06:1842.
-
00:06:18And that could certainly be an area of support looking at Tesla.
-
00:06:22Tesla had a wild couple of days after generating a buy signal on Wednesday.
-
00:06:27It ran up, hit our next target of 234. 38.
-
00:06:30So hopefully you got to sell 50% of your position at that level.
-
00:06:34And then we came down hard on Friday.
-
00:06:37We're still on a buy signal here.
-
00:06:38We need a close on Monday below $210. 29.
-
00:06:43We closed at $210.
-
00:06:4473.
-
00:06:46So just above the lower chain line.
-
00:06:48If we take out the recent low there at 203.
-
00:06:5113 and then the psychological number of 200, then 187.
-
00:06:5650 comes into play for Tesla.
-
00:06:59Well, what a difference we can make.
-
00:07:01You know, a week ago we were looking at the Dow and the TSX hitting new all time
-
00:07:06highs, and a week later we've got the market heading being sharply lower,
-
00:07:09being led lower by the chip sector.
-
00:07:13This is a seasonally weak period for the market.
-
00:07:15But I thought the market, given what happened last week, that we'd probably go
-
00:07:20into the middle of the month before we started to see any aggressive selling.
-
00:07:24Obviously I was wrong.
-
00:07:26The charts were right. I was wrong.
-
00:07:28We've got the VIX on a daily and a weekly buy signal right now.
-
00:07:33The first thing I'm going to be looking for is to see a sell
-
00:07:37signal in the daily Vixen.
-
00:07:38That would tell me that the tone of the market is about to start to change.
-
00:07:42We certainly don't have that going into Monday's trading action, so we're going
-
00:07:46to look for continued weakness this week.
-
00:07:49Enjoy the rest of your day, enjoy your weekend, and we'll talk to you again soon.
