I spent the past couple of days wringing my hands about a big pop, and thanks to the chilly inflation report, we got it. The /ES lurched higher, and as of this composition (a few minutes before the open) we’re up about one percent.

I just wanted to highlight one of the very few charts I’ve persistently mentioned as bullish – Gilead Science (GILD) – which is like a bottle rocket. There are fewer and fewer charts out there with this kind of relentless strength.

Another reason to be bullish short-term.

I have been having an absolute ball with this market. I have taken some profits (again) and, alert the media, have gone LONG SMH as a hedge.

Just to offer a long idea for a change (with the name “bear” in it, oddly) this is BBAI which has enjoyed a big surge in volume and recently got beaten down to a more alluring price level.
