-
00:00:00Good morning, everyone, and welcome to Wednesday morning.
-
00:00:03It's Stephen Whiteside here from T
-
00:00:05heUpTrend.com In the pre-market this morning, things are fairly quiet.
-
00:00:09Stock index futures are barely above fair value.
-
00:00:11We do have some economic numbers coming
-
00:00:13out this morning, and then later in the morning, we have energy inventories.
-
00:00:17Bitcoin and Ethereum are in the news this morning as they both hit new highs.
-
00:00:21And of course, the corresponding ETFs are also hitting new highs for this move.
-
00:00:27Looking at the VIX for the S&P 500, we're
-
00:00:29looking for a close above 13.67 on Wednesday to give us a buy signal.
-
00:00:34And for the VIX for the Nasdaq, it's traded above the upper channel line for
-
00:00:38the past two days, but has not closed above it.
-
00:00:41We're looking for a close above 17.26 on Wednesday to give us a buy signal.
-
00:00:47Looking at the major index ETFs from Tuesday's trading action, small pullback
-
00:00:52in the DOW, small pullback in the S&P 500, and a gain for the NASDAQ 100.
-
00:00:57So the NASDAQ back up into the middle of
-
00:00:59the channel, HIP, looking for a close for the triple Qs below $385.68 on Wednesday.
-
00:01:07That would give us a sell signal for the NASDAQ 100.
-
00:01:10Now looking at the iShares for the TSX 60, a small gain on Tuesday.
-
00:01:13It didn't have much to do with gold and gold stocks, which pulled back again.
-
00:01:18Gold traded down to the lower channel line.
-
00:01:20A close below $2,027.40 would give us a sell signal on Wednesday.
-
00:01:26Silver actually ended Tuesday on a sell signal.
-
00:01:29Now, both those commodities are trading up
-
00:01:31slightly in the premarket, not enough to change either trend.
-
00:01:35Then looking at the ETFs, the GLD traded
-
00:01:38down to the lower channel line yesterday, while the SLV generate a sell signal.
-
00:01:43Then looking at the stocks themselves, the
-
00:01:45GDX closed at the upper channel line, as did the XGD.
-
00:01:50Then the biggest loser was Silver stocks, still closing above the upper channel line
-
00:01:54and no change in trend for any of those stock ETFs.
-
00:01:59Now looking at crude oil, new closing low
-
00:02:01for this move on Tuesday, natural gas traded slightly higher.
-
00:02:05That's not going to help energy stocks on either side of the border.
-
00:02:10Looking at the Magnificent Eight, well,
-
00:02:12four of the eight stocks are still on buy signals.
-
00:02:15That includes Amazon, Apple, which really led the market higher on Tuesday.
-
00:02:20Then we've got Shopify on both sides of the border, and Tesla.
-
00:02:25Those four stocks are still on buy signals at the moment.
-
00:02:29Let's finish off this morning's
-
00:02:30presentation, taking a look at the Stock
-
00:02:32House Bullboards for the Industrial sector.
-
00:02:35Looking at the industrial index itself, it is on a buy signal right now, had a big
-
00:02:41pop last Friday, and hasn't seen a lot of follow-through since then.
-
00:02:45Looking at Pyrogenesis, we're still on a
-
00:02:49sell signal here that would change on Wednesday with a close above 50 cents.
-
00:02:53Then looking at Bombardier, we're still on a sell signal that would change on
-
00:02:57Wednesday with a close above $60.17, sense.
-
00:03:00Then looking at Exro Technologies, we're on a buy signal right now, but trading in
-
00:03:06the channel, so a close below $1.36 would give us a sell signal on Wednesday.
-
00:03:11It does not look like the pros want to
-
00:03:13take control at the moment, so I'm not sure how long this buy signal will hold.
-
00:03:18Then looking at Xtract One Technologies,
-
00:03:22we are back on a sell signal as of Tuesday's close.
-
00:03:26Now, scanning through the TSX Industrial's
-
00:03:28Index, there are some stocks that are doing well at the moment.
-
00:03:31Stantec, Thomson Reuters, and Russell
-
00:03:33Metals are all doing well coming into Wednesday's trading action.
-
00:03:39Okay, folks, that is all for this morning's presentation.
-
00:03:41So far, it looks like we're going to have a quiet open on Wednesday morning.
-
00:03:45Enjoy the rest of your day.
-
00:03:47Next time you'll hear my voice, is on Thursday morning.
