“I also hate to be so negative or contrarian but, this is a NO spin zone and truth is its product; I can always be WRONG but, I am mostly EARLY!”

My interpretation of the morning’s numbers is written to be informative; it’s built on what happened to make “it” happen today!

Companies in my headlights – It’s your decision; I provide ideas and context

I post about “indication intelligence” looking toward investment conferences … to assist investors with insight into sector vulnerabilities and strengths.  A dictionary definition of “indicate” refers to something less than a certainty; an indication could be a signal of being oversold or overbought, a recommendation, or grounds for inferring or a basis for believing.

  • Better part of valor to not lead any investor to temptation; yet again, I am passing on forecasting the daily indications as to expectation … it is still a mix of uncertainties

 

The BOTTOM LINE: New week <6/23 to 6/27> 1st session, Monday closed negative followed by Tuesday’s positive close to today’s Wednesday’s uncertainty while slowing coming to a month’s end <Monday, 6/30>.

Reiterating, “There are always some big ifs, especially given some of the headlines that could emanate after a past few months of news flatulence.

  • Some believe in a “June Swoon;” however, June will be no better or worse than any other month. Although, I consider the so-called summer rally after the peripatetic or wandering.”

As always, brace ourself for more volatility, economics and their down trending affect?

Welcome to my world of defining the “grey’ in our universe!

  • The sector is what it is, until it isn’t and even then, it doesn’t seem to be… as NOT much changes as the sector’s share pricing rides the waves of volatility, algorithms, electronic trading and short covering.
  • I am more frequently right than consequentially wrong; if I wanted to be liked, I wouldn’t have been an analyst/journalist.
