WEEKLY Profit Targets
It looks like the market may try to rally already this week. If that happens, it’s quite probable that the rally will be short-lived (at least until the current black cloud persists…). So, if the rally is a Bear Market Rally, these models below may help to determine “how far” these rallies can go. These are WEEKLY models, so as a minimum the time horizon is 1 week (or multiples of that), but things are happening VERY fast at the moment, so I would not be surprised to see a 1-week rally and it may even end on Wednesday.
All this said, here are the targets to monitor, to go SHORT again and profit from the next leg down:
Bond Age & Discipline
Here’s a fun and in-depth half hour interview I did on Thursday literally while the crash was happening.
Should Grok Come to Slope?
As much as I’ve griped about AI, my griping has way more to do with the super-expensive (well, until recently) valuations than the technology itself. I use Grok (where my beloved son was one of their earliest employees) pretty regularly, and I wanted to share a very simple example of how I use it.
There’s a newsletter from Substack called The Bear Cave which, you will not be surprised to know, I find interesting. There’s a problem, though. It’s a total wall of text. Page after page after page of commentary and musings. I don’t want to read all that stuff. I just want to look at charts, of which they published none.
Target Achieved
They said it couldn’t be done, but my IWM target was met (circle) and a bit more!
