Stocks on rally mode again today. Shocker? Not exactly, huh? I find it silly to think that there’s anything but a nuance of difference in the corporatist, warmongering, big government/big business policies of the RepublicanDemocratRegime’s change in “leadership.” A little awareness of political realities goes a long

No trades for me today. Remember to trim a little bit and raise some cash when stock markets are at all-time highs. The S&P 500 is indeed at an all-time high as I type this. Easy does it as we scale in and trim in tranches

Feels like the markets coiling before its next phase of volatility. Do you remember just a few trading days ago that the DJIA dipped back below 16,000? Are you prepared for wherever the near-term market might take us, including a potential near-term weakness towards the 16,000

Stocks thru the roof again today, wild volatility remains the theme. Still no trades for me today. Now onto today’s report. I always call it “gambling” when I trade around earnings. Trying to game earnings reports is one of the hardest and most volatile ways of trading. In fact,
Howdy folks, let’s ride. Q. When a company announces their earnings for the quarter and they announce a dividend with it. Like when Apple announced, “The dividend is payable on November 13, 2014, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on November 10, 2014.” If I
