  • AAPL Just Puked! It's Time to Buy.
    Costas Bocelli | November 8, 2012

    | 22 votes

    Blahhh... That’s the sound of regurgitation -- and I think Apple Inc. (AAPL) has finally lost its cookies.  Ever since the stock hit an all-time high nearly seven weeks ago, it’s caught a bad case of the flu bug and has been leading the markets lower with relative weakness along the way. But that may soon change.  You see, the…

  • One ETF You Never Want to Buy
    Costas Bocelli | October 31, 2012

    | 4 votes

    Editor's Note:  Costas is cleaning up from this week's storm and was unable to submit a new article for today.  The below piece from this past March, however, should be a very useful one to our new readers, and a valuable reminder to everyone else.   Recently we got an ugly glimpse of the destructive capabilities that one type of…

  • How to Take Advantage of the Drop in Gold
    Costas Bocelli | October 25, 2012

    | 15 votes

    What’s gotten into gold all of a sudden?  It’s dropped about $100 an ounce this month, and just made a six-week low.  Did the precious metal report bad earnings for the third quarter?  Did it fall short hitting its revenue target like 65% of the S&P 500 companies that have reported results so far? In a sense... Yes. Gold serves…

  • Technical Tuesday - Is The Market Crashing?
    Chris Rowe | October 23, 2012

    | 19 votes

    The U.S. stock market is standing on the cliff -- again.  It's peeking down over the edge... But is it ready to jump? The difference between a major buying opportunity within a bull market and a major selling opportunity early in the trend is the major sell SIGNAL.  I haven't seen that yet. However, I might get the major sell…

  • Romney's First 100 Days
    Costas Bocelli | October 18, 2012

    | 22 votes

    The second presidential debate this past Tuesday was quite contentious and didn’t disappoint.  After President Obama got steamrolled in round one, he took a much more aggressive approach this time around and it seems to have paid off.  At the very least, he’s slowed the surge of momentum that Romney picked up since their first debate. The national polls continue…

  • Will Obama Win Re-Election?
    Costas Bocelli | October 11, 2012

    | 33 votes

    In the spirit of the upcoming Presidential election on November 6, which is now less than a month away, I thought today would be a great opportunity to talk a little politics.  Think of it as your opening act to tonight’s debate between Congressman Ryan and Vice President Biden in Danville, Kentucky. After all, the election results will be very…
