Now at about 81.5% of usual max. equity exposure worldwide (meaning vs. usual max. for a Bull Market).

Here's what a raccoon dog looks like (the probable carrier of the prior #COVID virus, SARS-CoV-2) nature.com/articles/d41... Somebody probably ate or got too close for too long to a raccoon dog back in late 2019. 1/

Have a great weekend!

#SPX #SPY #QQQ #IWM $SPX $SPY $QQQ $IWM First, was this a "Risk Off" Day? Yes, as you may have guessed! $ARKK which I use for a rough "Risk Off Level" monitor was -5.91% today. That's a big move... As for my Market Indicator Panel™ Signals... stocktwits.com/SunAndStorm/...

#COST $COST Here's why it bounced... stocktwits.com/SunAndStorm/...

#SPX #GLD #QQQ #RUT #BTC.X #SPMO $SPX $GLD $QQQ $RUT $BTC.X $SPMO Here's where we ended up in terms of short term trading range positions... Of these, only GLD held up well. It was -0.09% for the day, and near the middle of its short term trading range. stocktwits.com/SunAndStorm/...

#Fed at next meeting, "Inflation expectations remain well anchored." Oops they did it again... #TransitoryInflation Round II

#BTC.X $BTC.X #Bitcoin has not to date broken its uptrend that began last Sept. It's simply consolidated from the post-US Election bounce to 99,860 to present. www.tradingview.com/x/avpYY7ds/ There is a lot more here... stocktwits.com/SunAndStorm/...

$GMED E Report Beat - Beat E = 0.84 non-GAAP vs. 0.75 est +12% Beat Rev= 657.3 M vs. 646.19M @YahooFinance +1.72% Beat #GMED

$IWP #IWP Overdone move today? x.com/SunAndStormI...

#TRGP $TRGP Back-calculating earnings per share from the data presented in the report today vs. the prior report, I still see a big miss in earnings. I'm open to finding out differently. Waiting for the company's response. Here is the math... stocktwits.com/SunAndStorm/... see pr post

$TRGP #TRGP To be clear, I believe going forward, they should report GAAP and Non-GAAP Earnings per share to make their overall results clear to investors. That should be expected of any company. 2/

#TRGP $TRGP earnings per share appear to be a big miss unless the company has a Non-GAAP estimate they'd like to share. Or analysts should feel free to chime in too! Revenue was a slight miss at 4.41 B vs. 4.48 B est @yahoofinance.com stocktwits.com/SunAndStorm/...

#Cost $COST Trimmed some profits.

#BTC.X $BTC.X #Bitcoin at price = 93,746 is at 14% in the short term trading Opportunity Range™ for today. No evidence of pressured selling at this point. There are two "#LevelsOfInterest" nearby. www.tradingview.com/x/pR4zCnYZ/ 1/

Opportunity Range™ Positions at Close for Today. #Bitcoin BTC.X price at 4:26 pm ET. $SPX 67% $SPMO 59% $QQQ 75% (strongest vs. its range, but no pressured buying) $RUT 63% $GLD 15% (the weakest vs. its range for today) $BTC.X 65% #BTC.X #GLD #SPX #RUT #QQQ

$SPX $IWM $SPY $QQQ "Market Indicator Panel™ Update" - Fast Buy Signal is very close to turning ON. - Fast Sell Signal could also switch to OFF within a day. - Slower Buy/Sell Signal is equivocal. 1/ #SPX #SPY #IWM #QQQ

$EWA Restarting position step by step. Positive range behavior over the past several days. Trend is up. #EWA

#SPX #SPY My Fast Signals for the US stock market are on the verge of turning back to Bullish, which they can do in one day. High end of $SPX Opportunity Range™ for tomorrow is a new ATH, which is positive. 1/

$ITA Take note. #Trump just said, "I think we can cut #defense spending in half." It involves working with Putin and Xi to reduce military spending. #ITA

Read my answer to a question about small cap investing in the face of rising #inflation under #Trump here... stocktwits.com/SunAndStorm/...

I added a large cap tech stock earlier today, which you can review here... I did two adds in fairly quick succession, and the price is a bit below my 2nd add now... stocktwits.com/SunAndStorm/...

Send your support for recognizing "$ Tags" to @rose.bsky.team. If financial writers have to change all the tags back to the old Twitter #s, it slows things down, which is sometimes very costly in investing.

$SPX $SPY $QQQ Both of these large cap indexes are above the key levels I've discussed (see link in profile and see the $IWM chart where I marked the key level with the top horizontal yellow line; the market has "anointed" similar levels in the large caps). Old fashioned tags: #SPX #SPY #QQQ 1/

$SPX $SPY $TNX. #PPI #Inflation est were Y/Y Headline/Core of 3.2%/3.3%. Came in hot at 3.5%/3.4%, and yet US stocks are not reacting negatively, and the 10 year yield is still down six basis points for the day.

#TNX 10 Year Yield after US #CPI data @ 4.641% is at 112% vs the predicted short term trading Opportunity Range™ for today, meaning there is some pressured selling in 10 Year Treasuries today. $IEF $TLT #IEF #TLT

Those who were telling you inflation was going to be soft to falling don't know what they are doing, and misled you. FYI.

#SPX #SPY $SPX $SPY US #CPI Headline high and hot... up 0.5% for Jan Core up 0.4%. Y/Y Head. 3.0% from 2.9% CORE Y/Y 3.3% up from 3.2% per @Bloomberg.

#YPF $YPF Don't cry for me #Argentina... Breaking bad, down 23.9% off the last high and -5.0% today.

#BFLY $BFLY @ 4.15 is at 48% vs the predicted short term trading Opportunity Range™ for today. It has an enormous range with about 12% upside and 12% downside in the range (that's at 4.18; it's a bit lower at the moment). It's just above its trend level today.
