Silver Melting
I pointed out last week how big a deal the failure of the trendline was; this poor thing is just shot.

Full Fibonacci Failure
Lifetime Support
With the possible exception of listening to someone’s dream that had just the other night, there are few things more boring than the-one-that-got-away stories, but this is important. The incredible performance of the Dow Utilities is one of the greatest setups of the ages, and what scares the holy hell out of me (which is alloyed with pangs of self-flagellation due to leave a mountain of cash I stupidly left on the table) is that we are approaching LIFETIME SUPPORT.

XLU OMFG
There’s no doubt about it. My declaration to go bearish on Utilities was one of the greatest calls of all time and, simultaneously, one of the most poorly-executed in my life. I made 144%, but this sucker has continued to collapse, and I don’t think it’s even done yet. I am SUCH an idiot. I hope you people have done better with my genius trade, having not been burdened with my empty head!
