We wanted to add one other point to the report and that is how stretched things are. Remember…EVENTUALLY, everything returns to the norm whether a stock, a sector or a major index and that norm is support and/or moving averages. To give you an idea: The DOW is a whopping 840 points above the 50 day…
We do not believe these notes were hacked or tapped! Still not a lot of complaints. In fact, we were deluged with reports from pundits who are saying the market is about to be smoked. No…not kidding. Maybe they are right. How about a 1% drop first.? The complaints: Sentiment is off the charts bullish….
The CEO of beleaguered GNC HOLDINGS just bought $5,000,000 shares at prices between $8-8.50 on February 21. This stock has dropped from $35.90 last April to $8.50 as we write this. Keep in mind, just because insiders buy does not mean a stock goes higher…but something to watch.

Futures are down a wee bit off of yesterday’s weakness. Pullbacks are way overdue as we have not seen a 2% drawdown since before the election. Of course, does not mean we ever get one again…bazinga. COSTCO whacked on numbers. Recently, they reported great comps. But the real numbers show weakness. SNAPCHAT pulled back at…
Well, that wasn’t so nice. Just a heavy day. Not so thrilled Transports move out and then tuck their head in like a frightened turtle. Not so thrilled that the small caps still under-perform. But market needs a rest. Markets need some pulling in. Markets need to wipe the smiles off the face of the…
SNAPCHAT NOTES (Hurry up as they will disappear!) By Gary Kaltbaum- March 2, 2017 As we write this, give or take a few, the market is valuing Snapchat at nearly $30 billion. First off and to be clear, there is no way this company could come public at this valuation in a poor market environment. The…

SNAPCHAT going public today. If this was a company selling steel pipes, it would come out at 75% below the IPO value…seriously. 50x sales…not earnings…but 50x sales….massive losses and a recent slowdown in business does not thrill…but glamour is glamour and social media is glamour. Just remember one word…TWITTER. If Snapchat can pull a Facebook…
Futures down a wee bit but after yesterday, no biggie. We remain amazed how since the election, there hasn’t even been a 2% drawdown. The combination of the surprise election, a ton of cash on the sideline and the potential for tax cuts, regulatory relief and the continued monolithic easy money sloshing across the globe…has done…
