Price actions scare me with many welcomed yet some questioned
There are just too many divergences re pricing performance
Since we’re headed or back into overbought territory … where was the news support?
A concerning signal?
It’s called premium content for a reason … I define insight from a real-time perspective discussing equity share pricing, attractiveness and support levels as stock pricing changes by the hour … if not the minute!
Others don’t even come close!
I answer one question, in which company should investors commit and keep their money.
Thursday’s results have implications to Friday’s sector activity as a daily report may say little or a lot and it serves as insurance that all indications are being examined and evaluated!
Henry’omics:
From the pre-open’s investor’s newsletter, “… I just don’t see it … Although my eyes are open, my ears are flapping but, my fingers aren’t moving to any ticket indication. Not all cell therapy stocks … exist or even trade alike…
I missed the signal, if there was one … but, I am sticking to My Wednesday’s statements …
· “With so many uncertainties weighing on sector equities due to their being overvalued one day and undervalued the next; I am a bit perplexed that we saw an upward movement today.”
· Volume is still very low but, driving the pick-up as share pricing jumps and the advance/decline lines are SLIGHTLY balanced to the upside
· Speculation is running rampart as low volume upticks can quickly become downdrafts!
Momentum is ruling the day and shorting into this upside is where many will go … based on week’s past and the month’s activity!
My opinion to read after missing today’s move but … I am usually EARLY!
