Boner Candidate #1: LOUIS, YOU ARE SUCH A GOHMERT.
East Texas congressman Louie Gohmert suggested that “violence in the streets” may be the only remaining option to block Joe Biden from becoming president, after a federal judge rejected his lawsuit aiming to force Vice President Mike Pence to overturn the election. U.S. District Judge Jeremy Kernodle, an appointee of President Donald Trump from Gohmert’s hometown of Tyler, threw out the lawsuit late Friday, ruling that he and other plaintiffs — including the GOP chairwoman in Arizona and that state’s defeated slate of Republican electors — lack standing. Late Saturday, a federal appeals court upheld the ruling. Late Friday on Newsmax, Gohmert said he had sought redress in court “so that you didn’t have to have riots and violence in the street.” “Bottom line is, the court is saying, ‘We’re not going to touch this, you have no remedy,’” Gohmert said. “Basically, in effect, the ruling would be that you’ve got to go to the streets and be as violent as antifa and BLM.” It’s not the first time Gohmert — a former state trial court judge who just won his ninth term in Congress — has expressed admiration for the use of violence to overturn an election.

Boner Candidate #2: MILEY, YOU SHOULD RESIST THE URGE TO SHARE THINGS ABOUT YOUR LIFE.
Miley Cyrus likes to put her sex toys out on display. In a recent interview with Sirius XM radio’s Barstool Sports show, the Plastic Hearts singer revealed that her home is decorated with various sex toys as sculptures. “I like sex toys,” she declared. “I buy them for myself, but I end up using them for interior design. Sex and interior design go actually hand-in-hand.” Back in August, she explained on the Call Her Daddy podcast that she likes the way her plethora of vibrators look as home decor. “Most of my sex toys I use as interior design — I do like sex toys as interior design. I’ll buy a dildo, and [for] more than … its operation — I don’t really wanna get in there with it because I love the way it looks on my table,” she explained. “I’m really into dildos for interior design. I buy them for myself, but I end up using them for interior design. I like vibrators, but I mostly like aesthetic.” “I like d–ks as an aesthetic. Girls are way hotter. We know this. Everyone I think can agree that d–ks make wonderful sculptures. But more than that, I am not as interested. I like d–ks as art pieces. I love the shape,” she added.

New Homeowners Find Two-Way Mirror, Video Hookup In New Home

An Arizona family moved into a new home, only to make a disturbing discovery left behind by the previous owner.
Annabell Mickelson says a suspicious-looking mirror in the bathroom turned out to be a two-way mirror with a hidden area behind it. Inside they found wiring to hook up video equipment. The owners say they knew the home had a “reputation for being a party house”, but still weren’t prepared for their discovery.

Facebook is making some changes to cut down on political content.
Mark Zuckerberg says the platform will stop recommending political groups – something it already stopped doing in the lead-up to the 2020 election – and make other tweaks to reduce the amount of political content in the News Feed.

Study: Cannabis Can Help With Certain COVID-19 Symptoms

A new study out of Canada suggests that cannabis can help with certain types of COVID-19 symptoms.
Researchers say some cannabis strains can reduce inflammatory distress called a “cytokine storm” – which can lead to acute respiratory distress syndrome or ARDS.
One lead scientist said he was “not at all” surprised by the findings and said cannabis can help with a wide range of inflammation.
Have you ever used cannabis for specific medical purposes? Did it help?

Ever have a dream about being back in high school? So does Dave Grohl – except his dreams are about being back in his old band.
The Foo Fighters frontman told Louder magazine “I still have dreams that we’re in Nirvana, that we’re still a band.”
Foo Fighters leader Dave Grohl reveals that he still dreams that he’s Nirvana’s drummerhttps://t.co/Reg78LGD5J — metalhammer (@MetalHammer) January 11, 2021
Grohl never plays Nirvana songs with Foo Fighters and never sings lead when he reunites with ex-Nirvana bandmates Krist Novoselic and Pat Smear – which has happened only a handful of times since Kurt Cobain’s death in 1994.
How would you feel about a Nirvana reunion without Cobain? Do you have any ‘recurring’ dreams?

Disneyland Resort is getting a temporary makeover of sorts.
It’s being turned into a mass vaccination site to get thousands of Southern California residents their COVID-19 shots.
The Anaheim theme park has been closed since March because of the pandemic.
BREAKING: Disneyland Resort in Anaheim will serve as Orange County's first large COVID-19 vaccination site for residents starting later this weekhttps://t.co/PiPxywkP6Q — KTLA (@KTLA) January 12, 2021
The first people to be offered a vaccine appointment at Disneyland Resort over the next few days will be essential workers and those over 70-years-old.
Should other states pick large-scale sites as well for coronavirus vaccinations?

Lawsuit Says Subway’s Tuna Not Actually Tuna

It’s always good to know what is in the sandwich you’re buying, right?
A new lawsuit alleges that the tuna that Subway uses for sandwiches actually does not contain tuna.
Samples of Subway’s tuna were submitted for lab testing. According to the plaintiffs’ attorney, it is actually “a mixture of various concoctions that do not constitute tuna, yet have been blended together by defendants to imitate the appearance of tuna.”
wait, this lawsuit alleges that the tuna at Subway “is not tuna and is not fish” but no one ever says what it is, exactly https://t.co/ZxCQss646Q — b-boy bouiebaisse (@jbouie) January 28, 2021
Subway has denied the accusation and says the claims are “meritless.”
Do you think Subway cuts corners when it comes to its ingredients? What do you usually order from Subway?

When Might $1,400 Stimulus Checks Arrive?
| null | null |

The incoming Biden administration will be pushing for a third round of stimulus checks – this time for $1,400. But analysts are split on when that money might arrive in your bank account.
Congressional leaders say the stimulus will be their ‘top priority’ and could move forward this week – which could mean checks going out sometime in February if things go smoothly.
Third stimulus check: When could you get a $1,400 check? https://t.co/aIX229u4va — CBS News (@CBSNews) January 18, 2021
However, some analysts think the $2 trillion bill will see a lot of pushback from Republicans, and say it could April – or longer – before the payments are approved.
How important are these stimulus payments for keeping American households afloat? Will another round be necessary even after the $1,400 is approved?

More and more retail chains are offering to pay employees who get a COVID-19 vaccine.

Aldi is even looking into the possibility of setting up vaccination clinics at its warehouse and office locations to make things easier for workers.
Should all employers pay their workers to get the vaccine? Do you still go grocery shopping in person, or rely on delivery or pickup services?

It has been confirmed that The Grammy Awards have been postponed…not that anyone really cares.
According to sources, the show might be postponed to March 2021, but that has yet to be confirmed.
A rep for The Grammys has said that due to health and travel concerns, the Recording Academy and CBS have decided to postpone the show.
Sources say a combination of health and travel concerns — not least the spike in COVID-19 cases in the show’s planned location of Los Angeles — led the Recording Academy and its network partner CBS to decide to postpone the #Grammys. https://t.co/5GJ49VuvTh — Variety (@Variety) January 5, 2021
The Grammy Awards were originally supposed to air on January 31st in Los Angeles.
Are you surprised by the announcement postponing the Grammy’s? Do you think it should still go on but just as a virtual award show?

Awards aren’t really Mike D’s thing. So, the Beastie Boy is going to auction his off.
In an Instagram post, Mike D revealed that he used to give all of his awards to his late mother.
Now, he is looking to auction those awards off for charity.
While things are pricey, all of the money raised will help out kids. Mike D wrote, “all the $ goes to @goodeatsorg – an
awesome charity getting food to kids in need in NYC and beyond.”
Do you have any awards that you still hold onto? Are there any things from Mike D’s auction that you wish you could have?

Nirvana Producer Recalls $100,000 Gamble Over ‘In Utero’

Producer Steve Albini has just revealed details behind a bet he made with Nirvana while making the album In Utero.
In the interview, Albini said he bet the band that he could beat them in a game of pool. If they won, he would give up his $100,000 paycheck. If they lost: doubling that paycheck.
Albini says that he has done that while working with several bands and is not surprised Nirvana didn’t want to take him up on the bet. No one has.
Steve Albini said he’d waive his fee for producing album if a band member beat him at pool: https://t.co/LMC65dM6wH — UltimateClassicRock (@UltClassicRock) January 26, 2021
According to drummer Dave Grohl, “Anyone who’s got the stones to gamble something that large must be amazing, so everyone said no. Plus, he had his own stick. We didn’t want to f**k around with that.”
What is a crazy bet that you have made? What was the outcome?

ROUND ONE
Boner Candidate #1: ON, WHERE YOU GOING’ WITH THAT CLOWN MASK AND THAT GUN?
Authorities in California arrested a man during a traffic stop after finding a loaded AR-15 rifle accompanied with a clown mask from the horror movie “It.” Cops pulled over the vehicle in San Leandro Sunday afternoon and found a “fully loaded AR-15 concealed in a bag in the backseat,” according to the San Leandro Police Department. Also in the car was a mask depicting Pennywise the clown from the “It” movie franchise, and marijuana. Cops didn’t clarify why they initially stopped the driver. The driver’s identity has not been released. The suspect was booked into jail on drugs and weapons charges.

Boner Candidate #2: AM I FREE NOW? HOW ABOUT NOW? NOW?
Joe Exotic’s legal team is so confident the “Tiger King” star will get a pardon from President Trump on Tuesday that they have a limo parked near his prison — and hair and makeup at the ready. “This time tomorrow, we’re going to be celebrating,” Eric Love, who is leading Exotic’s bid for freedom, told Metro.co.uk in an interview Monday afternoon. “We have good reason to believe it will come through,” he said of a presidential pardon for the Netflix star, who is serving 22 years for trying to hire a hitman to kill zookeeper rival Carole Baskin. “We’re confident enough we already have a limousine parked about half a mile from the prison. We are really in action mode right now,” he said of a stretch limo near the Federal Medical Center in Fort Worth in Texas.

Boner Candidate #3: DAD’S BRILLIANT IDEA FOR A CHRISTMAS PRESENT
A woman has revealed how she unexpectedly uncovered a dark family secret. TikTok user Cat McDonald, username @fretlessfeline, responded to a fellow user’s video which asked people to share their most weird and wonderful DNA result stories. In a clip that has been viewed more than 3.7 million times on the social media platform, Cat explained that one Christmas, her dad came up with the “brilliant idea” to give the entire family an Ancestry DNA test, which came with unexpected results. Cat said her entire life she “identified as Irish because my last name’s McDonald and my hair is bright f***ing red.” After taking the DNA test she discovered that she’s 75 per cent Norwegian and the rest is German and British – not Irish at all. Baffled, her dad made her log into her account to see if she had any DNA matches. She revealed: “I had an exact paternal match – it just wasn’t him.” She said: “I contacted my mum and two of my aunts immediately, everyone including my mother was f***ing shook, but even my dad recognized the name.

ROUND TWO
Boner Candidate #1: IF A HOLY MAN CAN’T KILL THE COVID, WHO CAN?
A self-styled Sri Lankan holy man’s supposed miracle potion to prevent Covid-19 turned sour Tuesday after a minister who publicly drank it was hospitalised with the virus. Thousands defied public gathering restrictions to swamp a village in central Sri Lanka last month to get the syrup made by Dhammika Bandara. Women and Child Development Minister Piyal Nishantha de Silva was among several politicians who consumed the concoction, but parliamentary officials said he had since tested positive for coronavirus and taken to a treatment centre. Family members of another politician, who hailed from Bandara’s village, had also been infected despite taking the syrup. Pro-government media gave widespread publicity to Bandara who claimed the formula was revealed to him by Kali, a Hindu goddess of death and destruction of evil. The only ingredients he acknowledged were honey and nutmeg. The government has scrambled to distance itself from Bandara, whose preparation was approved as a food supplement by the official indigenous medicine unit.

Boner Candidate #2: I WAS GOING TOO FAST TO PULL OVER.
Titusville, FL — A man who fled from officers said he was trying to get home to his mom and claimed he was driving too fast to pull over, according to the Titusville Police Department. Police said they saw Nicholas Debetes, 18, driving a red Hyundai Elantra “at an extremely high rate of speed” Thursday around 11:15 p.m. near the intersection of North Dixie Avenue and Mayfair Way and turned on their lights in an attempt to get him to stop. Records show Debetes passed several locations where he could have stopped but instead continued to a trailer park on North Dixie Avenue where he parked the car. After he was placed in handcuffs, a Brevard County deputy arrived and said Debetes had an outstanding warrant, adding that she had tried to pull him over earlier that night but he sped away and she was unable to catch up, according to the affidavit. Debetes claimed he was speeding because his mother wanted him to come home for an unknown reason and he added that he was driving too fast to stop, the report said.

Boner Candidate #3: SOME TIMES YOU FEEL LIKE A NUT….
Myrtle Beach, SC — The dispute started with an impolitic remark about a lone testicle, records show. Curtis McCoy, 46, and his husband of 10 years got into an argument late Sunday evening that “escalated since they have been drinking alcohol,” according to South Carolina police. The couple, who live in Myrtle Beach, were arguing when McCoy allegedly “brought up how the victim only has one testicle which caused the victim to get upset.” As the dispute continued, the victim pointed his finger at McCoy and yelled back at his spouse, cops say. McCoy allegedly grabbed his husband’s finger and twisted it, “causing him pain.” After initially denying to police that he had touched his spouse, McCoy reportedly said, “I only grabbed his finger and twisted it when he pointed it at me.” He added that the couple “learned their lesson from last time they both got arrested for domestic violence.” Seen above, McCoy was arrested for domestic violence and booked into the local jail on the misdemeanor count. He was released from custody yesterday after posting a $2120 personal recognizance bond.

McCoy allegedly grabbed his husband’s finger and twisted it, “causing him pain.” After initially denying to police that he had touched his spouse, McCoy reportedly said, “I only grabbed his finger and twisted it when he pointed it at me.” He added that the couple “learned their lesson from last time they both got arrested for domestic violence.” Seen above, McCoy was arrested for domestic violence and booked into the local jail on the misdemeanor count. He was released from custody yesterday after posting a $2120 personal recognizance bond.\nRead More",

Boner Candidate #1: 70 THOUSAND FAKE SHOTS
A health clinic in Ecuador has been caught administering fake COVID vaccines to tens of thousands of patients. Quito security chief César Díaz told reporters that the bogus facility had treated at least 70,000 patients who were charged $15 for each of the three doses they were required to take. He said patients were told they would be immune to the deadly virus once they had received all three doses. Díaz said that Quito health officials do not know what type of formula was injected into each of the patients who were treated at the facility – which has not been identified. A video that appears to have been recorded by an undercover agent shows Dr. Lucía Peñafiel, who was in charge of the site’s operation, not wearing while treating a patient because she claimed she and her staff ‘are protected.’ Doctor gives fake COVID-19 vaccinations though an IV treatment

Boner Candidate #2: UTAH SHAMES WOMEN
A bill now before the state Legislature would compel Utah women seeking an abortion to watch an online course displaying “medically-accurate” images of the procedure and then attest under penalty of perjury that they’ve viewed the presentation from start to finish. Completing this online module is already a mandatory step before an abortion in Utah — although right-wing advocates argue the current informed process is too porous and believe women might be skimming over or skipping the course.

General Motors To Go All-Electric By 2035

General Motors is the latest automaker to announce a plan to go all-electric.
The company unveiled a long-term plan Thursday that would end the production of all gas-powered vehicles by the year 2035, replaced by all-electric cars, trucks, and SUVs. GM also hopes to be fully carbon-neutral by 2040.
GM plans to exclusively sell electric vehicles by 2035 https://t.co/J64uS3eu0o pic.twitter.com/bj2PjEVvk6 — Engadget (@engadget) January 28, 2021
Over 98% of GM’s current sales come from gas-powered vehicles, but they plan to have more than 30 different electric models for sale in the next four years.
Will gas-powered vehicles ever completely go away? Have you made the switch to a hybrid or electric car?

Shaquille O’Neal has always had an affinity toward law enforcement.
So it is not surprising that he was offered and accepted a job with the Henry County Sheriff’s office in Georgia.
In his new position, he will be the Director of Community Relations.

A hotel in France was burglarized not once but twice this week.

An estimated $245,410 dollars worth of wine was taken by the thieves on Monday and $429,596 dollars of wine was taken on Tuesday.

It hasn’t been confirmed if it was the same people who broke in both nights.

Is there such a thing as a perfect job? If you are a candy lover, this could be it.
Candy company Candy Funhouse is looking for full-time and part-time workers to eat candy!

At $30 an hour, “Candyologists” will help taste-test candy and chocolate for an upcoming line of candy from Candy Funhouse.
The catch, of course, is that the job is in Canada and requires full-timers to be there in person. Part-timers can do their tasting from home.
Would you eat candy as your job? What would your dentist think? What candy company would you like to do taste testing for?

The picture of Bernie Sanders from the inauguration has taken the world by storm in the form of a meme.
You’ve probably seen one, two, or maybe three of them by now. Social media users and celebrities have been sharing them creating a meme frenzy.
One of the most popular is of Bernie Sanders and Marvel’s Deadpool, played by Ryan Reynolds.
Reynolds shared the meme of his Deadpool character and Sanders, photoshopped of course, sitting next to each other on a rail of some sort.

Boner Candidate #1: I WAS JUST THERE TO FILM HISTORY
A newly elected lawmaker from West Virginia was among the mob of Trump supporters who stormed the United States Capitol on Wednesday, filming as he stood among the crowd outside a door, rushed with them inside and then wandered through the halls along with the scores of others who had breached the building. The lawmaker, Derrick Evans, posted the video to his Facebook page, where he goes by “Derrick Evans – The Activist” on Wednesday afternoon, but he later deleted it. Mr. Evans, who was elected as a Republican state delegate in November, posted several videos from the events of the day, both narrating and joining in “Stop the Steal” chants with throngs of other Trump supporters. In the video that was deleted, he is among a crowd that shoved up against a door at the Capitol’s east front, some chanting and others loudly singing the national anthem. Those at the front appear to be trying to get inside, while Mr. Evans gives a running commentary on the attempts.
Boner Candidate #2: SHE SAID HITLER WAS RIGHT ABOUT ONE THING
CHICAGO (AP) — A growing number of Democrats called Thursday for the resignation of U.S. Rep. Mary Miller of Illinois, a newly sworn-in Republican who quoted Adolf Hitler at a rally outside the U.S. Capitol this week. U.S. Reps. Jan Schakowsky and Marie Newman, both Illinois Democrats, along with a contingent of state legislators circulating a petition, demanded Miller step down immediately. “There are some things that cross a very definite line and that was one of them,” said Schakowsky, who is Jewish. “At a moment like this, when emotions have been so high on all sides, to invoke the name of Hitler was about as inappropriate and wrong as you can get.”

"Boner Candidate #1: I WAS JUST THERE TO FILM HISTORY\nA newly elected lawmaker from West Virginia was among the mob of Trump supporters who stormed the United States Capitol on Wednesday, filming as he stood among the crowd outside a door, rushed with them inside and then wandered through the halls along with the scores of others who had breached the building. The lawmaker, Derrick Evans, posted the video to his Facebook page, where he goes by “Derrick Evans – The Activist” on Wednesday afternoon, but he later deleted it. Mr. Evans, who was elected as a Republican state delegate in November, posted several videos from the events of the day, both narrating and joining in “Stop the Steal” chants with throngs of other Trump supporters. In the video that was deleted, he is among a crowd that shoved up against a door at the Capitol’s east front, some chanting and others loudly singing the national anthem. Those at the front appear to be trying to get inside, while Mr. Evans gives a running commentary on the attempts.\nBoner Candidate #2: SHE SAID HITLER WAS RIGHT ABOUT ONE THING\nCHICAGO (AP) — A growing number of Democrats called Thursday for the resignation of U.S. Rep.

Star Light, Star Bright: Where You Can Find One Of The World’s Best Spots For Stargazing
| null | null |

Minnesota’s only national park was just named one of the world’s best places to look at stars (not the celebrity kind; the shining brightly, up in the sky ones).
Voyageurs National Park, just south of the Canadian border, has been named an International Dark Sky Park.
That means it’s a great place to stargaze because there’s hardly any light pollution.

Other spots already on the best stargazing list: Glacier National Park in Montana, the Grand Canyon in Arizona, and the island of Kozushima in Japan.
What’s one of the coolest things you’ve ever seen up in the sky?

It’s a sure sign you’re growing old – your favorite albums start to celebrate their 10th anniversary (And then their 20th anniversary, and then 30th…)
Some of the rock albums turning 10 in 2021 include the Black Keys’ breakout album El Camino, along with Foo Fighters’ Wasting Light and Five Finger Death Punch’s American Capitalist.
One of the strangest albums to come out in 2011? The Lou Reed + Metallica’s team-up Lulu.
77 Rock + Metal Albums You Didn’t Realize Were Turning 10 in 2021: https://t.co/DM8qkgNp9Q — Loudwire (@Loudwire) January 8, 2021
Finally, 2011 was the last time we heard from Limp Bizkit with Gold Cobra – maybe that’s not such a bad thing.
Do you have any favorite albums turning 10, 20, or 30 this year?

One of the first-ever recordings by Radiohead is going up for auction.
The cassette demo includes six songs by band members who were still teenagers at the time, going by the band name ‘On A Friday’. Three of the songs have never been heard before.
The "raw" tape features previously unheard efforts from the bandhttps://t.co/RjkOxj0lST — NME (@NME) January 18, 2021
Omega Auctions says the songs are “raw” but “suggest something of the fantastic potential that the band would realize in a few year’s time”.
It’s expected to sell for as much as $2,700 later this month.
Ever see a band before they got famous? Did you know they were going to be big one day?

Watch Out For This COVID-19 Email Scam Targeting Small Businesses

Feds are warning about a new COVID-19-related email scam that’s targeting small businesses.
Authorities say the email will claim to be from the “Small Business Administration Office of Disaster Assistance” and tell the owner they’re eligible for a $250,000 loan.
Predictably, the email then asks for personal information like DOB and Social Security Number. The FTC warns that a genuine lender would never automatically qualify you for a loan that big.
Seems like a new #covid19 scam pops up everyday…https://t.co/a39pjIQb4q — Samantha Chatman (@SamChatmanABC7) January 15, 2021

| null | null |

Just how bad are things for the U.S. economy anyway? If you just finished reading the financial news headlines the past few days, you can't be blamed for being just a little confused.
From the government side, you would swear that the sky is falling. Not only is the COVID-19-fueled financial crisis ongoing, but it might also be getting even worse. Last week, we heard it from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell and this week from his predecessor, Janet Yellen, President Biden's nominee for Treasury Secretary.
"The economy is far from our goals" of full employment and sustained 2% inflation, Powell said at a webcast sponsored by Princeton University. Therefore, he said, "Now is not the time to be talking about exit" from easy money policies. "When the time comes to raise interest rates, we will certainly do that," he said. "And that time, by the way, is no time soon."
Yellen painted an even bleaker picture. "Economists don't always agree, but I think there is a consensus now: Without further action, we risk a longer, more painful recession now—and long-term scarring of the economy later," she said in prepared remarks for her confirmation hearing before the Senate Finance Committee.
While not dismissing the concern that "further action" would add to the already humungous federal debt burden – now at $21.6 trillion and expected to grow even more under Biden – Yellen was more worried about the possible consequences of not spending enough.
"Neither the president-elect, nor I, propose this relief package without an appreciation for the country's debt burden," Yellen said, according to the Financial Times. "But right now, with interest rates at historic lows, the smartest thing we can do is act big. In the long run, I believe the benefits will far outweigh the costs, especially if we care about helping people who have been struggling for a very long time."
Today's Top 50 Stocks These Stocks Are Ready to Break Out Over 5K stocks are trading on the U.S. and Canadian exchanges. While you may hear about the same companies over and over again, some of the biggest trading opportunities can come from "no-name" stocks. See which stocks (some you may never have heard of) made it onto today's 50 top stocks ranked by their technical trend. See The Free List
Yet, at the same time, we saw the largest banks in the country take the opposite tack, releasing billions of dollars they had earlier put aside against possible loan defaults – thus adding to their net income.
JPMorgan Chase (JPM) led the way with $2.9 billion of reserve releases, followed by Citigroup (C) with $1.5 billion and Bank of America (BAC) with $828 million. Even Wells Fargo (WFC) released $757 million, although much of that was due to its student loan portfolio's earlier sale.
While not pronouncing the crisis over and the battle won, the banks' actions nevertheless speak volumes. While not minimizing the pain and suffering millions of people and hard-hit businesses are still going through, it's clear that the worst of the crisis is behind the economy at large. The banks must see something positive in their loan books. If things were still getting worse or staying the same, they would not be releasing reserves – they would be adding to them. Nor would they be announcing multibillion-dollar stock buybacks, as approved by the Fed.
At the same time, we know, the U.S. savings rate has skyrocketed since the crisis began, to nearly 13% in November, the latest figure available. That's up from the 7-8% range before the COVID-19 lockdowns started. Of course, the reason for the spike is the enormous amount of stimulus money the government sent out last year in two installments – and now a third and even larger one is presumably coming if Biden gets his way.
One could reasonably conclude that the savings rate jumped because many people simply didn't need the money – although assuredly, many people desperately do. Overall, however, it's obvious that the government is spending money it doesn't have to, or at least a lot of it where it isn't needed. Granted, hurried government relief programs like this are going to miss the mark, but by this much?
This begs the question: Why do our fiscal and monetary authorities feel compelled to speak and act like the crisis is still getting worse, and the banks and many consumers are acting like we've turned the corner?
While some observers say this is the result of the so-called K-shaped recovery, I think it shows a new philosophy of the government's role in the economy. I've talked before about how the Fed has adopted Modern Monetary Theory as its guiding principle. The Treasury spends trillions of dollars it doesn't have, which the Fed happily buys, with no harm to anyone – on the contrary, stock and bond prices keep rising.
Now we find that MMT isn't just meant to deal with actual crises, but as the normal day-to-day functioning of the U.S. economy.
Back in the bad old days of communism, this was called a planned economy; only then was it reducing everyone except the party elite into poverty. Here, though – at least so far – we've managed to make everyone wealthier in the process. So the longer the news is bad – or the government says it is – the better for everyone.

After falling sharply in 2019, the sector was hit hard again in the spring when COVID-19 ravaged global markets. Cannabis stocks and sentiment hit a multi-year low, and many cannabis investors threw in the towel.
It was a dark time for cannabis stocks. Take a look at the steep decline in 2019 and early 2020 in the chart below.
Wall Street has seen it a thousand times. This extreme pessimism usually sets the stage for an enormous rally. And that’s exactly what happened.
After hitting a multi-year low in March with the broader stock market, cannabis stocks went on a huge rally for the rest of the year.
Green Thumb Industries (GTBIF) gained 167% in 2020 and jumped more than 500% from the 52-week low.
gained 167% in 2020 and jumped more than 500% from the 52-week low. Cresco Labs (CRLBF) gained 52% in 2020 and jumped more than 400% from the 52-week low.
gained 52% in 2020 and jumped more than 400% from the 52-week low. Innovative Industrial Properties (IIPR) gained 149% in 2020 and jumped more than 300% from the 52-week low.
There were a few reasons cannabis stocks rallied so hard.
The sector was extremely oversold after steep losses in 2019 and 2020.
The sector was extremely undervalued after delivering huge sales growth.
Most U.S. states gave the cannabis industry an essential designation that allowed the industry to continue operating.
Wall Street learned that the cannabis industry is recession-proof after sales hit a new all-time high during the biggest economic contraction in U.S. history.
Five more U.S. states voted to legalize cannabis in November.
3 Profit Triggers for Cannabis Stocks in 2021
Naturally, after an incredible performance in 2020, investors want to know what to expect in 2021.
I see a high probability that they will deliver more gains in 2021 – because of three powerful catalysts directly on the horizon.
#1 – Cannabis Stocks Have Major Upward Momentum
The cannabis sector has strong upward momentum right now and this is a bullish signal for more potential gains. Here are some more details from Reuters.
In prior bull markets, when the S&P 500 takes out its previous bull market high, the index has experienced a median gain of 38% over the span of 26 months before topping out, according to Bespoke Investment Group data.
Many cannabis stocks hit new all-time highs in the last three months and historical data on the S&P 500 demonstrates that this frequently leads to more gains in the next two years.
#2 – 7 More U.S. States Could Be Going Legal in 2021
Five more U.S. states voted to legalize cannabis in November. This alone is a huge catalyst for these stocks in 2021.
However, it gets even better. It looks like up to seven more U.S. states could be legalizing in 2021. That includes huge potential markets in New York and Pennsylvania.
#3 – Democratic President and Congress Should Advance Legislation
New Democratic President, Joe Biden, isn’t considered to be a big advocate of legalization. Nonetheless, I think this argument misses the point. With the Democrats taking the presidency, the House, and the Senate, I see a high probability of major cannabis reform in 2021.
Cannabis Stocks Prepared to Rally Again in 2021
2020 turned out to be an incredible year for the cannabis sector.
After hitting a new multi-year low in March, cannabis stocks launched a huge rally and spent the rest of the year charging higher.
Looking forward, the stage is set for more gains in 2021. The U.S. cannabis industry should benefit from a string of powerful catalysts.

Will 2021 Be The Year For Cannabis Stocks?
| null | null |
www.ino.com
|
Great progress in terms of legalization was made for the Cannabis/Marijuana sector in 2020 that will. The 2020 elections resulted in a number of US states engaging in new Cannabis friendly policies and laws being approved by voters. This suggests a new rally in the Cannabis sector may be setting up in 2021 and beyond for traders. Our BAN – Best Asset Now – trading strategy is always looking out for the next sector to make a trade, and the Cannabis sector is certainly one we are keeping our eyes on! Make sure you sign up for my FREE webinar to find and trade the Best Assets Now just like me.
Weekly MJ Price Flag Setup
My research and I team believe the recent longer-term bottom in the MJ ETF, the Alternative Harvest ETF, suggests a broad bottom is setting up in the Cannabis/Marijuana sector. If this bottom in the Cannabis sector continues to profit support for the entire sector, then we may see price appreciation across many individual Cannabis stocks over the next 12+ months. Additionally, this price appreciation may prompt quite a bit of consolidation across the entire Cannabis/Marijuana sector.
The global use and demand for CBD & THC related products may continue to expand as medical and personal use expands across the US and into other nations. We are still near the infancy of understanding the true medicinal benefits of this all-natural product. A new upward price trend in this sector may prompt a global expansion/consolidation event where the Cannabis/Marijuana industry attempts to restructure into true global power companies.
Our research team is focused on the possibility that an early 2021 price decline in the cannabis sector may setup a broad sector bullish trend near March/April 2021 (or earlier). We believe the process of this longer-term bottom setup will still require another attempt to consolidate near the MAGENTA support channel before a more substantial breakout will take place. The current bottom setup is very similar to a Bullish Price Flag setup and we believe the next price low may be an area where real opportunity exists for a final bottom in price.
Monthly MJ Bottom Setup
The following Monthly MJ chart highlights the same bottom setup on a longer-term chart basis. Pay very close attention to how much volume has poured into this sector in October and November 2020. It is very likely that a new price low, below $11.90~$12.00, will setup within 4 to 8+ weeks that will represent the final downside price move before the Price Flag pattern attempts an upside breakout. We expect to see stronger volume surge into this final bottom as traders load up before the breakout move begins.
As we've been suggesting for a number of months, the broader, longer-term market cycles and trends suggest the next 3 to 5+ years are going to be very dynamic for various market sectors. Our research team believes the US and global markets have just recently started a broad depreciation phase which may last another 5 to 7+ years. Typically, within these phases, commodities and other sectors rotate in and out of favor as capital is forced to seek out undervalued and potentially explosive sector trends.
This bottom setup in MJ may prompt a number of individual Cannabis and CBD suppliers, processors, end-user manufacturers, and technology providers to engage in a series of acquisition and consolidation steps over the next few years if this sector becomes hot fairly quickly. Rising prices and expectations may prompt this industry into a consolidation and technology/distribution expansion over the next 4 to 5+ years. Very similar to the DOT COM/Technology bubbles recently, when a sector gets hot, it tends to prompt quite a bit of investment and activity surrounding the growth and consolidation of industrial components and technology.
You don't have to be smart to make money in the stock market, you just need to think differently. That means: we do not equate an "up" market with a "good" market and vi versa – all markets present opportunities to make money!
We believe you can always take what the market gives you, and make CONSISTENT money.

First Losing Week Of 2021
| null | null |
www.ino.com
|
The bull run that started in December had to take a breather after it extended into 2021 and this week was the week. Six of the seven markets that we track weekly will finish the week down, and the one market that is up may shock you.
We'll start with the three major indexes. The S&P 500, DOW, and NASDAQ will post their first weekly loss of the year and the first in four weeks, with losses standing at -1%, -.6%, and -1%, respectively.
The week's surprising winner is the US Dollar with a weekly gain of +.6%, marking its second straight week of gains, which was enough to trigger a new green weekly Trade Triangle, moving the US Dollar to a sidelines position.
Both gold and crude oil are hovering just below the -1% mark as they head into the finish Friday afternoon with weekly losses starting at -.9% and -.8%, with crude oil losing -2% on the day.
The big newsmaker on month cooled off a touch posing a weekly loss of -10%. However, Bitcoin has bounced back from steep early losses where it shed over 10,000 points in early week trading to trade at the 35,000 level. Is it profit-taking that colled off the firey rally or something else? What do you think?
Key Levels To Watch Next Week:
S&P 500 (CME:SP500) : 3,662.71
: 3,662.71 Dow (INDEX:DJI) : 29,881.82
: 29,881.82 NASDAQ (NASDAQ:COMP) : 12,543.24
: 12,543.24 U.S. Dollar (ICE:DX) : 89.32
: 89.32 Gold (NYMEX:GC.G21) : 1,856.60
: 1,856.60 Crude Oil (NYMEX:CL.G21) : 53.83
: 53.83 Bitcoin (BITCOIN:BITSTAMPUSD): 25,770.00

Stocks Set New Record Highs
| null | null |

As expected, when there's a change of power, stocks have been all over the board this week, and after hitting record levels on Thursday, the major indexes are pulling back a touch heading into the weekend. The record highs now sit at 3,861.45 for the S&P 500, 31,27.22 for the DOW, and 13,560.22 for the NASDAQ.
But despite Friday's weakness, major averages are on pace to post a winning week. The S&P 500 is up +2.2% for the week so far. The DOW is up +0.6%, and the NASDAQ is up +3.8%.
Bitcoin took one on the chin this week, losing over -10% as we head into the weekend. The reason for the sudden selloff? Janet Yellen's comments about Bitcoin this week. She suggested on Tuesday that lawmakers "curtail" the use of cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin over concerns that they are "mainly" used for illegal activities.
Message From Our Sponsor My #1 Rule: Don't Buy Options (especially in this market)! Most options traders place high-risk trades, hoping for a big payout. But they lose... a LOT!

Since Janet Yellen is being tapped to be President Joe Biden's nominee for treasury secretary, you could conclude that the Biden administration could be hostile to cryptocurrencies and ramp-up regulation.
From a technical view, Bitcoin has fallen from record highs and fallen below its 20-day moving average, which was acting as support. It's now testing its 50-day moving average, which will serve as the next support line.
As far as next week goes, it will be a big week of earnings with 107 S&P 500 companies, and 13 of the DOW 30 will report. Big earnings reports could push the stock market to new record highs.
Key Levels To Watch Next Week:
S&P 500 (CME:SP500) : 3,662.71
: 3,662.71 Dow (INDEX:DJI) : 29,881.82

The DOW dropped more than 600 pts Friday to finish January with its worst week since October losing over -3.2%. The S&P 500 and NASDAQ couldn't avoid a selloff, with both indexes losing -3.3% and -3.4%, respectively. The reason for the losses, a short squeeze of all short squeezes.
It started on January 25th when a group of retail investors identified Gamestop Corp (GME) as a buy on the WallStreetBets Reddit forum. This group of day traders continued to encourage each other to pile into GameStop's shares and call options, creating a massive short squeeze that inflicted pain for hedge funds betting against the stock. So much so that the trading app, Robinhood, seized trading mid-week of GME stock as well as several other stocks. After resuming trading Thursday, Robinhood has been limiting the number of shares that the retail investor can purchase.
All told, the short-selling hedge funds have suffered a loss of nearly 20 billion year to date, including a nearly $8 billion loss on Friday as the GME kept ripping higher. Still, short-sellers mostly are holding onto their bearish positions, or they are being replaced by new hedge funds willing to bet against the stock. GameStop shares that have been borrowed and sold short have declined by just about 5 million over the last week, marking an 8% dip in the short interest, according to S3. Most of the short-covering occurred on Thursday when the stock fell for the first time in six days, according to data from S3 Partners.
Meanwhile, the traders on the WallStreetBets Reddit forum are preaching to hold the line and to not sell, which they see as giving in/losing to the hedge funds. It should make for an interesting time next week. Other stocks on their radar are Nokia (NOK), AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc (AMC), Koss Corp (KOSS), Express, Inc (EXPR), and BlackBerry Ltd (BB).
Of note, the DOW and S&P 500 have both gone negative for the year, with January losses standing at -2% and -1%. The NASDAQ, on the other hand, is holding strong with a monthly gain of +1.4%.
Key Levels To Watch Next Week:
S&P 500 (CME:SP500) : 3,694.12
: 3,694.12 Dow (INDEX:DJI) : 31,272.22
: 31,272.22 NASDAQ (NASDAQ:COMP) : 12,949.76

Best Post Election and Inauguration Lift
The drumbeat of markets becoming more and more over-extended is becoming louder and louder. From the election to the inauguration, the S&P 500 is up 13%, which is the best for any president since 1952. Post-inauguration, all major indices as measured via the Russell 2000 (IWM), Dow Jones (DIA), S&P 500 (SPY), and the Nasdaq (QQQ) hit all-time highs. The broader markets have been propelled higher in an already frothy market as 2021 unfolds. All major markets have been in a raging, nearly uninterrupted bull market with the Nasdaq and S&P 500 up 100% and 75%, respectively, since the pandemic low.
These moves are a function of the vaccine rollout, continued stimulus coming out of Washington, massive fiscal and monetary accommodation from the Federal Reserve, the election cycle being capped off with the presidential inauguration, and new policies aimed at spurring economic growth. Despite these tailwinds, the markets are looking overextended, as assessed by a broad range of historical benchmarks and current indicators investors should heed in the near term.
Historical Measures and Current Indicators
A recent E-Trade survey showed that the majority of investors (91%) with $1 million or more in a brokerage account believe the stock market is in a bubble or close to being in one. From a historical standpoint, markets have exceeded levels reminiscent of the Roaring Twenties and are now approaching the dot-com bubble territory. These historical comparators of options put/call ratios, the broad participation of stocks exceeding their 200-day moving average, and P/E ratios may be potential warning signs of near-term pressures. Current indicators are also suggestive of frothy markets as measured by Bollinger bands and the Relative Strength Index (RSI).

Fundamentals – Lofty P/E Ratios
Price-to-earnings ratios are largely discordant with the economic backdrop and at historically lofty levels as measured by the Shiller PE. This indicator eliminates fluctuation caused by variation of profit margins during business cycles. Outside of the tech bubble in 1999/2000, the current Shiller P/E ratio of the S&P 500 composite is the highest on record, exceeding that of the Roaring Twenties (Figure 1).
Figure 1 – S&P 500 Shiller P/E historical ratios over time
Put/Call Option Ratio
Options put/call ratio assess the volume of bearish put options relative to the volume of bullish call options. The ratio is at its lowest levels in 20 years, which may indicate irrational optimism by investors. The gauge can often be a contrarian signal for equity markets (Figure 2).
Figure 2 – 5 year put/call ratio data, registering the lowest mark over the past 20 years
All-Time Highs – 200-Day Moving Averages
The equity rally has been very broad, and nearly every stock in the S&P 500 is in a technical uptrend (e.g., stocks trading above their 200-day moving average). Roughly 90% of stocks in the S&P 500 are trading in this technical uptrend after the inauguration, which is the highest in years (Figure 3).
Figure 3 – S&P 500 technical trends, percentage of stocks above their 200-day moving average
Relative Strength and Bollinger Bands
Other technical indicators such as Relative Strength Index and Bollinger bands are also suggestive of markets that are overbought and pushing through two standard deviations from its 20-day moving average. The Russell 2000 index is an example of the RSI being chronically in overbought territory (reading > 70) and the upper Bollinger bands being nearly broken. These are indicative of a potential mean reversion of the underlying security (Figure 4).
Figure 4 – Russell 2000 ETF breaking out of its upper Bollinger band and registering an RSI reading of overbought
Conclusion
From election to the inauguration, the S&P 500 is up 13%, which is the best for any president since at least 1952. Post-inauguration, all major indices as measured via the Russell 2000 (IWM), Dow Jones (DIA), S&P 500 (SPY), and the Nasdaq (QQQ) hit all-time highs. These moves are a function of the vaccine rollout, continued stimulus coming out of Washington, accommodation by the Federal Reserve, and the election cycle being capped off with the presidential inauguration. Despite these tailwinds, the markets look overextended as assessed by a broad range of historical benchmarks and current indicators that investors should heed in the near term.

We can see that the normal opposite correlation is back and silver is more inversely correlated with the DXY than gold these days.

Gold & Silver: The Dollar Still Looks North
| null | null |
www.ino.com
|
The bouncing U.S. dollar index (DXY) makes the game these days for the top metals, so I added its chart below to show you the possible path of the next move.
Most of you agreed with the map that I showed you a month ago. It indicated more downside for the DXY. On the 6th of January, the dollar established a new valley at 89.21, proving we were right. The price followed the red zigzag down and even the turning point set around 89.5.
The next move in that zigzag was shown to the upside, and the price obeyed that plan again, although it came later in the time scale. It already made the first leg to the north marked as blue A.B. segment in the zoomed 4-hour chart above. The DXY is currently building the B.C. junction as I am convinced that another leg up (blue CD) is coming.
The one minor leg down (red 1) and the counter-trend consolidation were completed out of the B.C. part. I think that another leg down to finish the whole B.C. piece should emerge next. It could tag the valley of red leg 1 at 89.92. The RSI could pull back to the "waterline" then.
After that, the blue CD segment could kick-off. The RSI should turn north as well. I set the blue box's target range between 91.4 and 91.8, where the CD part would vary between 1x and 1.272x of the A.B. segment. I extended that area to the left to show you where in the history we saw such a level before. It fell on the 30th of November, 2020. That day, gold established the former valley of $1765, and silver was around $22.
Do you agree that DXY will extend correction to the upside? No, it will drop at once
Yes, I see 91.4
Yes, I see 91.8 View Results
Loading ... Loading ...
This time I added correlation sub-charts for gold and silver under the RSI. We can see there that the normal opposite correlation is back and silver is more inversely correlated with the DXY than gold these days.
Let's look at the metals charts below to find confirmations there. Gold is up next.
Your primary choice of the path was posted last week is surprising as you picked the mildly bullish green scenario of possible Rising Wedge pattern to emerge. It implies wide seesaw moves within the contracting to the upside pattern with the apex slightly higher than the former all-time high. It is quite difficult to trade this pattern as volatility could touch risk limits on either side.
The next popular bet was the red path, which is zoomed in the 4-hour chart above. It sets the metal for another drop to tag the former valley of $1765 at least. Let me show you more details.
Today's Top 50 Stocks These Stocks Are Ready to Break Out Over 5K stocks are trading on the U.S. and Canadian exchanges. While you may hear about the same companies over and over again, some of the biggest trading opportunities can come from "no-name" stocks. See which stocks (some you may never have heard of) made it onto today's 50 top stocks ranked by their technical trend. See The Free List
Firstly, we already have the first leg down marked as a red A.B. segment. It goes in line with the map shown in the DXY chart above but is mirrored. The same B.C. junction is currently underway, and the blue leg 1 and the following counter-trend consolidation could be over. The blue leg 2 is pending, and it could hit between 38.2% ($1871) and 50% (1888) Fibonacci retracement levels. The former is located in the area where leg 2 is equal to leg 1.
Another drop would build the red CD part. The red box shows the target area between $1730 and $1690 as CD could extend to 1.272x of the A.B. segment. It should be updated when we will get the C point established. Overall, it matches the target zone set using the other method as it sits on the downside of the red dashed channel posted before. The former valley of $1765 could offer strong support ahead.
Do you think gold will drop again? Yes, but only to tag the former valley of $1765
Yes, and it will enter the red box ($1690-$1730)
No, it will go all the way up View Results
Loading ... Loading ...
The silver chart follows.
Odds split evenly between bullish and bearish views in the previous post. In the chart above, I showed how a bearish view with the target of $21.67 could play out.
The silver shows the same current structure as gold, and it mirrors the DXY graph. Although it built a more complicated consolidation phase between large two legs down, I had to squeeze the silver chart more than the gold graph to let the first large leg down with the crucial valley fit in the picture.
The blue leg 2 could reach the 50% Fibonacci retracement level around $26.14. The 38.2% is below the top of the blue leg 1, and I skipped it. The CD segment also has only one target level as the CD=AB area is above the crucial level of $21.67 of the former valley. It is located just 10₵ below at the 1.272x distance of the A.B. segment at $21.57.
Do you think silver will finally tag the crucial level of $21.67 to complete the entire structure? Yes
No, it will go all the way up View Results

Despite the major market crash in March, all of the major indexes ended 2020 in the green. The S&P 500 (SP500) ending the year up 16.27%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) rose 5.58%, and the NASDAQ (COMP) increased by 43.64% in 2020. While at times it felt as if there was a major disconnect with the economy and the stock market, and it still does to an extent, most of the year, it felt like no matter what you were invested in; you were making money. But, while not all stocks increased the same amount, the same is true about ETFs. Some funds, like stocks, did better than others.
When you look back at the year now, did you match market returns, fall behind, or where you invested in stocks and ETFs that beat the averages? Let’s take a look at the top five best performing ETFs of 2020 in a number of different categories the average investor has to choose from.
The following table shows the performance of the top five best performing ETFs in 2020, as well as their performance over the last month, the last three months, the last five and ten years. (All figures quoted are based on the December 31st, 2020 closing price. Five- and ten-year periods are annualized when available.)
The following table shows the performance of the top five Non-Leveraged ETFs in 2020 and their performance over the last month, the last three months, the last five and ten years.
The following table shows the performance of the top five Equity Non-Leveraged ETFs in 2020 and their performance over the last month, the last three months, the last five and ten years.
The following table shows the performance of the top five US Equity Non-Leveraged ETFs in 2020, as well as their performance over the last month, the last three months, the last five and ten years.
The following table shows the performance of the top five Global Ex-US Equity Non-Leveraged ETFs in 2020 and their performance over the last month, the last three months, the last five and ten years.
The following table shows the performance of the top five Developed Markets Equity Non-Leveraged ETFs in 2020 and their performance over the last month, the last three months, the last five and ten years.
The following table shows the performance of the top five Emerging Markets Equity Non-Leveraged ETFs in 2020 and their performance over the last month, the last three months, the last five and ten years.
The following table shows the performance of the top five European Equity Non-Leveraged ETFs in 2020, as well as their performance over the last month, the last three months, the last five and ten years.
The following table shows the performance of the top five Asian-Pacific Equity Non-Leveraged ETFs in 2020 and their performance over the last month, the last three months, the last five and ten years.
The following table shows the performance of the top five Latin American Equity Non-Leveraged ETFs in 2020, as well as their performance over the last month, the last three months, the last five and ten years.
The following table shows the performance of the top five Middle-Eastern & African Equity Non-Leveraged ETFs in 2020 and their performance over the last month, the last three months, the last five and ten years.
The following table shows the performance of the top five Commodity Non-Leveraged ETFs in 2020, as well as their performance over the last month, the last three months, the last five and ten years.
The following table shows the performance of the top five Currency Non-Leveraged ETFs in 2020, as well as their performance over the last month, the last three months, the last five and ten years.
The following table shows the performance of the top five Fixed Income Non-Leveraged ETFs in 2020, as well as their performance over the last month, the last three months, the last five and ten years.
(All figures quoted above are based on the December 31st, 2020 closing price. Five- and ten-year periods are annualized when available.)
The FANG leveraged products were the top two best performers of last year. However, if you’re like me and prefer to stay away from the levered products, you could have still seen massive returns if you predicted the alternative energy revolution early. That is one trend many analysts believe will continue in 2021 and beyond, so maybe if you missed out in 2020, you may still have time.
And of course, you could always just bite the bullet and buy into one of Cathie Woods ARK ETFs since they have been top performers for a few years running. Regardless, going into 2021, we all need to remember that there may be only one ‘best ETF of the year’, but you don’t have to pick the very best to beat the market and see sizeable returns.
Best of luck to all investors in the new year!

Natural Gas Futures
Natural gas futures in the March contract are currently trading at 2.44 after settling last Friday at 2.69 continuing its bearish momentum. Forecasts for warmer U.S. weather will curb heating demand for nat-gas continue to weigh on nat-gas prices.
On Thursday, the Weather Commodity Group said that the U.S. South and Midwest should see higher-than-normal temperatures predominantly over the next 2 weeks and that prior forecasts for a polar vortex in the Arctic to drop down into the U.S. later this month is not going to materialize. I'm not involved as I keep a close eye on a possible counter-trend trade. I think the spike bottom, which was created on December 28th around the 2.26 level, will hold as a possible Head Shoulders bottom pattern could be forming, in my opinion.
Natural gas prices are trading below their 20 and 100-day moving average as this trend remains lower to choppy. Still, I think this commodity will join the rest of the energy sector to the upside; it's just a matter of when the risk/reward will become more in your favor, especially if cheaper prices come about, so be patient and sit on the sidelines.
TREND: HIGHER
CHART STRUCTURE: POOR
VOLATILITY: HIGH
Copper Futures
Copper futures in the March contract is currently trading lower by 260 points at 3.6215 a pound after settling last Friday in New York at 3.6020, up about 200 points for the week still stuck in a tight 6-week consolidation pattern.
Copper prices continually bounce off the 3.57 level only to rally every time, which happened earlier in the trading session. The chart structure is outstanding; therefore, the risk/reward is in your favor as we are awaiting some fresh news to push prices above the contract high, which was hit on January 8th at 3.7340 as I remain bullish.
Copper prices are trading above their 20 and 100-day moving average. The trend remains to the upside as the housing market remains very strong; therefore, demand for copper should continue for the foreseeable future as I still think the 4.00 level is in the cards in the coming weeks ahead. The U.S equity market continues to hit all-time highs this week as copper prices have been riding the coattails of that market. Still, it has stalled out in recent weeks as the entire precious metal sector is taking a breather at the current time, but I see absolutely no reason to be short.
TREND: HIGHER - MIXED
CHART STRUCTURE: EXCELLENT
VOLATILITY: HIGH
Sugar Futures
Sugar futures in the March contract settled last Friday in New York at 16.45 a pound while currently trading at 15.88, down about 57 points for the trading week as prices hit a one-week low. I am now recommending a bullish position while placing the stop-loss under the December 15th low of 14.09. The risk is around $2,000 per contract plus slippage and commission as I want to give this trade some room due to the increasing volatility.
Sugar prices are still trading above their 20 and 100-day moving average as the trend remains higher despite the recent setback. If you take a look at the daily chart, the uptrend line remains intact as I believe the risk/reward remains in your favor to take a bullish position. Fundamentally speaking, prices have underlying support from Brazil's dry conditions that may curb sugarcane yields and reduce Brazil's sugar production. Irregular rain in Brazil's sugar-growing areas is keeping soil moisture levels below normal. The U.S. Climate Prediction Center said last Thursday that a La Nina weather pattern would likely last at least until March and possibly beyond, leading to prolonged excessive dryness in Brazil that cuts sugarcane yields.
TREND: HIGHER
CHART STRUCTURE: EXCELLENT
VOLATILITY: HIGH
Coffee Futures
Coffee futures in the March contract settled last Friday in New York at 128.15 a pound while currently trading at 125.00, down over 300 points even though prices hit a 4 month high in last week's trade.
I have been recommending a bullish position from around the 127 level. If you took that trade, continue to place the stop loss under the September 4th low of 104.85 as an exit strategy as the risk is around $10,000 per contract plus slippage and commission. This trade should only be taken with a large trading account.
Coffee prices are still trading above their 20 and 100-day moving average as the trend remains to the upside. However, this market has been very stubborn and has not established a strong trend at this time. After Conab, Brazil's national agricultural statistics agency, prices have remained firm, forecast on Thursday that Brazil's 2021 arabica coffee production will slump -35.7% y/y to a 12-year low of 31.35 mln bags. Conab said coffee output would fall as Brazil's coffee trees are in the lower-yielding half of a biennial cycle. Insufficient rain in key stages of crop development exacerbates the decline in yields.
TREND: HIGHER
CHART STRUCTURE: EXCELLENT
VOLATILITY: AVERAGE

Corn Futures
Corn futures in the March contract, which is considered the old crop and was harvested last October, is currently trading at 5.18 a bushel after settling last Friday in Chicago at 5.31 as prices are at a one-week low.
I am not involved, but I've had a bullish bias towards the grain market for quite some time. However, I am advising farmer clients to sell some of their cash crop as I think prices are getting a little long in the tooth and take advantage of this significant rally, which is around 50% higher from the low which was hit on August 12th.
Corn prices are still trading above their 20 and 100-day moving average as the trend is higher. If you are long a futures contract, I would continue to place the stop under the 10-day low, which stands at 4.89 as the chart structure will improve in 4 trading sessions lowering the monetary risk. I do not have any grain recommendations, but I also think that beans may have topped out as well. However, I'm certainly not recommending any type of short position as I think prices just need to digest the run-up that we have witnessed over the last several months.
Fundamentally speaking, acreage estimates are beginning to surface ahead of the new crop planting cycle as IHS Markit raised their forecast for corn by 3.1m acres from the December forecast to 94.2m. The chart structure at the current time is improving as the U.S farmer will certainly benefit as prices are still right near a 7 year high as that it's a terrific thing to see as the farming community over the last several years has been depressed.
TREND: HIGHER - MIXED
CHART STRUCTURE: SOLID
VOLATILITY: HIGH
Cotton Futures
Cotton futures in the March contract settled last Friday in New York at 80.70 while currently trading at 81.90, up over 100 points for the week, continuing its remarkable, bullish momentum to the upside as prices are hovering right near a 3 year high. I am not involved in this market as prices have run away to the upside due to the higher demand of joining most other agricultural markets.
Fundamentally speaking, new crop cotton planted acres were estimated to be 11.5 million by private firm IHS Markit as that was a 1.5m acre drop from their December forecast. If you are long a futures contract, I would continue to place the stop loss under the 2 week low, which stands at 78.65 as an exit strategy. However, the chart structure will improve in next week's trade; therefore, the monetary risk will also be reduced as it looks to me that higher prices are ahead. Remember, when you trade the commodity markets, trading with the path of least resistance is the most successful way to go over time as picking tops and bottoms are very difficult and unsuccessful, in my opinion.
TREND: HIGHER
CHART STRUCTURE: POOR
VOLATILITY: HIGH
Cocoa Futures
Cocoa futures in the March contract is currently trading at 2492 after settling last week at 2527, down slightly for the week as prices have been stuck in a 6-week consolidation pattern looking for some fresh fundamental news to dictate short-term price action.
If you take a look at the daily chart, prices rallied from $2,300 all the way to slightly above the $2,800 level in just a matter of weeks as prices are now digesting that run-up, but it certainly does look to me that a long-term bottom has taken place. Cocoa prices had traded lower for the 3rd consecutive session blamed on when the European Cocoa Association reported that Q4 European cocoa grindings fell -3.1% y/y to 344,151 MT, a bigger decline than expectations of -1.5% y/y and the weakest report for a fourth-quarter in 4 years.
Cocoa prices are trading slightly below their 20 and 100-day moving average as this trend is mixed. I will be patient and wait for a breakout to occur in the next couple of weeks as you have to remember the longer the consolidation, the stronger the breakout as we could be involved soon.
TREND: MIXED
CHART STRUCTURE: SOLID
VOLATILITY: HIGH
What do I mean when I talk about chart structure and why do I think it’s so important when deciding to enter or exit a trade? I define chart structure as a slow grinding up or down trend with low volatility and no chart gaps. Many of the great trends that develop have very good chart structure with many low percentage daily moves over a course of at least 4 weeks thus allowing you to enter a market allowing you to place a stop loss relatively close due to small moves thus reducing risk. Charts that have violent up and down swings are not considered to have solid chart structure as I like to place my stops at 10-day highs or 10-day lows and if the charts have a tight pattern that will allow the trader to minimize risk which is what trading is all about and if the chart has big swings your stop will be further away allowing the possibility of larger monetary loss.

Cocoa prices had traded lower for the 3rd consecutive session blamed on when the European Cocoa Association reported that Q4 European cocoa grindings fell -3.1% y/y to 344,151 MT, a bigger decline than expectations of -1.5% y/y and the weakest report for a fourth-quarter in 4 years.\nCocoa prices are trading slightly below their 20 and 100-day moving average as this trend is mixed. I will be patient and wait for a breakout to occur in the next couple of weeks as you have to remember the longer the consolidation, the stronger the breakout as we could be involved soon.\nTREND: MIXED\nCHART STRUCTURE: SOLID\nVOLATILITY: HIGH\nWhat do I mean when I talk about chart structure and why do I think it’s so important when deciding to enter or exit a trade? I define chart structure as a slow grinding up or down trend with low volatility and no chart gaps. Many of the great trends that develop have very good chart structure with many low percentage daily moves over a course of at least 4 weeks thus allowing you to enter a market allowing you to place a stop loss relatively close due to small moves thus reducing risk. Charts that have violent up and down swings are not considered to have solid chart structure as I like to place my stops at 10-day highs or 10-day lows and if the charts have a tight pattern that will allow the trader to minimize risk which is what trading is all about and if the chart has big swings your stop will be further away allowing the possibility of larger monetary loss.\nIf you are looking for a futures broker feel free to contact Michael Seery at 630-408-3325 and he will be more than happy to help you with your trading or visit www.seeryfutures.com\nMichael Seery, President\nSeery Futures\nFacebook.com/seeryfutures\nTwitter–@seeryfutures\nPhone #: 630-408-3325\n[email protected]\nThere is a substantial risk of loss in futures, futures option and forex trading.

Why You Should Prepare For A Jump In Volatility

By Elliott Wave International
Stock market volatility is like a roller-coaster ride -- extreme ups and downs.
However, unlike thrill-seeking roller-coaster riders who often rise from their seats after the ride with a smile, investors often exit with a frown.
That's because extreme volatility after a stock rally often ends with prices much lower.
Having said that, many investors -- even professionals -- do not anticipate a jump in volatility right now.
Indeed, the San Diego Union-Tribune asked the senior principal of a financial advisory firm on Jan. 15:
Will 2021 be a volatile year for the stock market?
He replied:
NO: If 2020 had not been a volatile stock year -- what with the pandemic, recession, elections, and riots -- then it is reasonable to expect that 2021 should be relatively stable.
Yet, a key stock market indicator is revealing.
Here are insights from the Jan. 15 U.S. Short Term Update, a thrice weekly Elliott Wave International publication which provides near-term forecasts for major U.S. financial markets:
The chart shows the DJIA in the top graph and the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) in the bottom graph. We've inverted the scale of the VIX so it aligns with stock prices. This index measures investors' expectations for market volatility for the coming 30 days. Most of the time, the VIX trends and reverses with stocks. When the behavior changes, it's time to watch both stocks and the VIX closely. The most recent intraday low in the VIX occurred at 19.51 on November 27. Since then, the DJIA has made a series of higher highs while the VIX has made a series of higher lows. This divergence is denoted with a red trendline on the chart.
The Jan. 15 U.S. Short Term Update goes on to describe a "clue" in spotting when volatility might start to spike.
Moreover, subscribers are provided with the Elliott wave labeling of the DJIA, which provides even more precision in ascertaining when to expect a change of character in the market.

50% Max Loss Reduction

Harnessing options allows one to define risk, leverage a minimal amount of capital, and maximize return on investment. Options enable smooth and consistent portfolio appreciation without predicting how the market will move. Options enables one to generate consistent monthly income in a high probability manner in both bear and bull market scenarios. This can be accomplished since options can be structured to allow a margin of downside and upside stock movement while collecting income in the process.
An agile options-based portfolio is essential to navigate pockets of volatility and mitigate market downdrafts. The recent September correction, October nosedive, and election volatility into November are prime examples of why risk management is paramount. Over the past ~9 months (May-January), 190 trades were placed and closed. An options win rate of 97% was achieved with an average ROI per winning trade of 7.7% and an overall option premium capture of 82% while matching returns of the broader market and outperforming during market downswings. An options-based portfolio's performance demonstrates the durability and resiliency of options trading to drive portfolio results with substantially less risk. The risk mitigation element is crucial, considering markets are richly valued as measured by any historical metric and technically breaking through its upper Bollinger band (Figures 1 - 6). An iron condor options strategy is a great way to reduce overall capital at risk when deploying options to drive portfolio results.

Basic Framework - Iron Condors
An iron condor strategy is an ideal way to define risk and reduce the amount of total capital at risk by over 50%. This reduction in capital requirements can minimize risk and maximize returns in options trading. This strategy involves combining both a call spread and a put spread. Hence, selling a call option and buying a call option while collecting credit and selling a put option and buying a put option while collecting additional credit. When combined, premium credits are collected on the call spread and the put spread for a collective premium credit. When selling the call/put spreads, the premium is collected and simultaneously using some of that premium income to buy a call/put option at a further out-of-the-money strike price. The net result will be a credit on the four-leg trade with defined risk since the purchase of the call/put option legs serves as protection on either side of the trade.
Defined Risk Iron Condors
An iron condor is a type of options trade that risk-defines your trade and involves selling a call spread and a put spread. Let's review the iron condor as an example below.
Iron Condors - Call Spread Side
You agree to sell shares at the lower out-of-the-money strike until the contract's expiration. You also bought the right to buy the shares at the higher out-of-the-money strike to protect and define your risk. A portion of the premium income received from selling the lower strike was used to buy an out-of-the-money higher strike option. The difference in premium received and premium paid out for the protection is your net premium income. The difference between your strikes will be your max loss, less the net premium received.
Iron Condors - Put Spread Side
You agree to buy shares at the higher out-of-the-money strike until the contract's expiration. You also bought the right to sell the shares at the lower out-of-the-money strike to protect and define your risk. A portion of the premium income received from selling the higher strike was used to buy an out-of-the-money lower strike option. The difference in premium received and premium paid out for the protection is your net premium income. The difference between your strikes will be your max loss, less the net premium received.
Iron Condors Breakdown
The call strike of $310 and put strike of $225 provide a margin of upside and downside of roughly 17.4% and 14.8%, respectively, from current levels since shares are currently trading at $264 per share. As long as the shares remain between the $310 and $225 by expiration, both spreads will expire worthless (Figure 6).
Figure 6 – Opening an iron condor via selling a call spread and put spread combination while taking in net premium income during the process. Capital requirement is equal to the strike widths, and maximum return is equal to the net premium received
50% Max Loss Reduction and Scenarios
An iron condor with the same expiration dates will expire together worthless with defined risk if the underlying security remains between the out-of-the-money call and put strikes ($225 and $315). If the option expires between the call strikes or put strikes, then losses will incur, and if the stock moves above or below your protection strikes, then a max loss will occur at expiration. A max loss is equal to one of the strike widths since the underlying security cannot expire on both the call and put side of the trade. Thus, max loss is equal to one strike width less the total premium received. This reduces max loss by over 50% relative to a regular call or put spread.
Example:
Selling an iron condor:
FB Call Credit Spread: 05FEB21 @ $310 / 05FEB21 @ $315
FB Put Credit Spread: 05FEB21 @ $225 / 05FEB21 @ $220
Per Contract Premium: Call Credit + Put Credit = $0.60
Required Capital Per Contract:
Call: ($315 - $310) = $500
Put: ($225 - $220) = $500
$500 call spread + $500 put spread - Net Premium of $60 = $940
Max Loss = $500 - $60 = $440 per contract
A. If the stock stays below $310 and above $225 at expiration, then you net the $60 in premium, and all four option legs co-expire worthless with 100% premium capture B. If the stock trades above $310 or below $225, then you begin losing money, but the $315 and $220 strike legs cap any losses above $315 or below $220. If the stock falls between your strike width at ~$312 or ~$223, then a loss of $2 per share less the premium received of $0.60 per share will be your realized loss ($200 - $60 = $140 loss per contract). C. If the stock trades above the call protection leg of $315 or the put protection leg of $220, losses are now capped at your strike width of $5 per share. If you were assigned at $310 or $225, you would then exercise your $315 or $220 strike option and buy shares at $315 or sell shares at $220 to cap losses at $5 per share less premium received of $60 resulting in a max loss of $440. Even if the stock was to rise to infinity or decline to zero, you have the right to buy shares at $315 or sell shares at $220, so any losses above $315 or below $220 are prevented.
Conclusion
The September correction, tail end October nosedive, and initial November volatility reinforces why appropriate risk management is essential. The risk mitigation element is essential, considering markets are richly valued as measured by any historical metric and technically breaking through its upper Bollinger band. An options-based approach provides a margin of safety while circumventing the impacts of drastic market moves and contains portfolio volatility. Despite market conditions, consistent monthly income was generated while keeping pace with the broader market returns and outperforming during periods of market weakness.

Sticking to the core fundamentals of options trading, one can leverage small amounts of capital, define risk, and maximize investment return. Following the 10 rules in options, trading has generated positive returns in all market conditions for the portfolio's options segment. The positive options returns were in sharp contrast to the overall market's negative returns in September and October. This demonstrates the durability and resiliency of an options-based portfolio to outperform during pockets of market turbulence. To this end, cash-on-hand, prolonged exposure to broad-based ETFs and options is an ideal mix to achieve the portfolio agility required to mitigate uncertainty and volatility expansion. Layering-in iron condors as part of an options strategy has many advantages, primarily because a max loss is reduced by over 50% compared to a normal call or put spread.

Conspiracies and bias hurt investors. It’s no wonder so many people have been unable to attain proper market positioning in 2020. You invest with your heart, soul, fears, or even sometimes your intellect and you risk blowing yourself up at worst, or missing out at best. For much of 2020 Twitter has been a forum for ‘influencers’ with tens of thousands of followers spewing dogma and influencing their herds alright. I watched it happen all year, in the Twitter machine and at other venues.
You know the perma-bearish or ‘got gold?’ types, issuing dire warnings and authoritative discussion of just how bad off the world is (well, it ain’t good, I grant them that). But it’s the practical reaction or lack thereof, not the news itself that matters.
So Warren Buffett bought a gold stock. The gold “community” immediately seized upon it as validation and an opportunity to lecture the herds. What it actually was though, was a top prior to a healthy and much-needed correction (handily, right from our long-standing target of HUI 375).
Buffett Buys a Gold Stock!
The most visible of the perma-bear entities (in my experience, at least) is now pimping Bitcoin I assume because after a year like this you’d better be associated with something going right so why not something that has exploded higher and gained mass attention once again? The 2020 bear promo blew up in your face so why not jump the biggest hype train out there?
Notes From the Rabbit Hole is named after a time of personal paranoia (2002-2004), which was more the result of fear of the Federal Reserve and other monetary authorities than politicians or some conspiracy of the global elite. As I learned more about monetary policy (becoming a gold bug in the process) I literally felt like I was in Wonderland where all kinds of strange (and scary) things existed that the people in my former above-ground life did not know of.
I knee-jerked into gold, guns, and ammo. Yeah, the usual. I knee-jerked into wood stoves, a generator, organic gardening, and water storage and purification (even though we use well water, ha ha ha). In short, I do believe I was ‘that guy’ in town. The weirdo. I recovered and from this experience after being burnished with inputs about how bad things can be and decided that life will go on and my future market service would not be like the other lunatics. I am a lunatic who will not sell any kind of dogma, whether it is bullish or bearish. I only sell what the indicators and truth of any given matter instruct me to sell.
Today’s conspiracy theorists make a living tending herds and imbuing upon their followers a sense that they are being contrary the system, the mainstream, the markets. Just learn from the influencer and you shall survive and maybe even prosper. No… you shall follow a linear thinking guru using some combination of logic and fantasy to portray a narrative that makes sense, especially in times like these, when so much seems out of control. The conspiracy theorist always has the answer for you. To boot, it’s a lot easier to serve the Kool-Aid virtually today than it was filling all those little paper cups at Jonestown.
Unfortunately, having an answer at the ready at all times and the truth of the matter are often quite different, which the herd usually finds out too late. Using the stock market as a prime example, sure the economy has been wrecked. Sure, the market was in free fall in March. That’s really really bearish, right? So what turned it and burned it from Armageddon to bubble?
Side Note: I have been rightly advised by a subscriber well acquainted with the mutual fund/financial services industry and some of its predatory analytical sources to stop giving away publicly the critical mechanics of NFTRH’s success so I will have to use restraint here [omitting an indicator that helps connect the dots in 2020 as it has in so many other market phases]. The general theme, however, is indicators over emotion and intellect, as long as you’re using the right indicators at the right times. I’ll do future articles that include technical analysis because frankly, I don’t think my standard nominal TA is necessarily better than others out there. It’s the much less obvious indicators and market signals where the difference is made. They need to stay mostly tucked away within NFTRH’s confines (err, down the Rabbit Hole).
Back in May, I wrote a post that was critical of a well known (at least in gold bug circles) analyst reinforcing the herd’s fears during the post-crash recovery: Down the Rabbit Hole. The writer implored readers to “get ready for the worst depression in the history of the world.” I included this graphic with the post…
The stock market rally continues to this very day, the last one of 2020. Many call it illogical but it is really so simple as to be overly obvious. If the units of Thing 1 (let’s say SPX) are measured in units of Thing 2 (US dollars), should not units of Thing 1 increase in price with more units of Thing 2 in circulation, having driven its value down? The party will end, but as of day 365 in 2020 it has not yet ended and we have analyzed and ridden with it every step of the way as the market was fueled first by remote tools/cloud/SaaS Tech and then various rotations within the broad market.
The Federal Reserve is literally printing a bull market and they are doing it because the indicators (especially those directly and indirectly of inflation) say they can. And the USD being the reserve currency, the phenomenon is global. As for gold and silver, we had indicators to the need for that correction that began in August. But look who is attempting to get with the program after being excluded from the party since August; gold, which led the whole broad market recovery and silver, which is again taking up leadership from gold. The interplay between those two will be another key 2021 indicator just as it was in 2020.
We have a very clear point on one key indicator, in particular, to watch for an end to the party (in inflation-driven cyclical markets, at least) and I think I’ll include it in this weekend’s NFTRH 635 for a little sobriety as we enter 2021 on a bullish note.
Meanwhile, ‘It’s a bubble in stocks!’ demand linear thinkers laying out easily digestible nuggets for their herds. Err, it’s a bubble in policy and with all the non-reconcilable debt in the system it really is a type of Wonderland. But in Wonderland especially, don’t you play by the host’s rules? Extreme risk rides with extreme bullishness. This is not Grandpa’s stock market of sensible P/E ratios and forward earnings (not to mention relatively sound monetary policy). It is a desperate game of chicken where you invest or avoid as the indicators suggest. And it’s a moving target. You remain open-minded and nimble.
As we head into 2021 the target is inflationary as led many months ago by gold, as eclipsed by silver, and then most recently, copper. Some are calling it a great new commodity bull market. Could be, but as yet it’s just a cycle making up for years of deflationary ignominy.
A host of indicators and other inputs go into staying on the right track in a market that has continually rotated its way to a bullish 2020 as instigated by the balls out printing of funny munny. But as has also been made perfectly clear in 2020, if you did not have a very good year and you took to heart viewpoints of influencers who happened to be wrong, you might think about another method for the new year. One where you break from herd-think and look at the markets for what they are and what makes them tick.
We’ll have to clear the Santa seasonal and the suspect market signals therein. But as we enter 2021 there are sure to be a whole new set of rules to play by. We’ll need to have our unbiased thinking caps on every step of the way.
To kick off the new year consider an offer of two weeks of NFTRH Premium for free (for first-time subscribers) while you evaluate the service. You can take my word for it that we had a great year in 2020 and that it was no accident, or you can get under the hood and see for yourself whether or not this type of no b/s analysis and market management is for you, with no obligation should you decide to cancel within the first two weeks. If you stay on after two weeks the regular monthly billing rate of $38 will apply.
Oh, and happy new year.

World Oil Supply And Price Outlook, January 2021
| null | null |
www.ino.com
|
The Energy Information Administration released its Short-Term Energy Outlook for January, and it shows that OECD oil inventories likely bottomed in this cycle in June 2018 at 2.802 billion barrels. Stocks peaked at 3.210 billion in July 2020. In December 2020, it estimated stocks dropped by 40 million barrels to end at 3.061 billion, 172 million barrels higher than a year ago.
The EIA estimated global oil production at 93.45 million barrels per day (mmbd) for November, compared to global oil consumption of 95.59 mmbd. That implies an undersupply of 2.14 mmbd or 64 million barrels for the month. About 30 million barrels of the draw for November is attributable to non-OECD stocks.
For 2020, OECD inventories are now projected to build by net 127 million barrels to 3.006 billion. For 2021 it forecasts that stocks will draw by 95 million barrels to end the year at 2.910 billion.
The EIA forecast was made incorporates the OPEC+ decision to cut production and exports. According to OPEC’s press release on January 5, 2021:
“The Meeting acknowledged the need to gradually return 2 mb/d to the market, with the pace being determined according to market conditions. It reconfirmed the decision made at the 12th ONOMM to increase production by 0.5 mb/d starting in January 2021, and adjusting the production reduction from 7.7 mb/d to 7.2 mb/d.”
The adjustments to the production level for February and March 2021 will be implemented as per the distribution detailed in the table below.
The EIA has assumed the following OPEC production levels for its STEO:
Oil Price Implications
I updated my linear regression between OECD oil inventories and WTI crude oil prices for the period 2010 through 2020. As expected, there are periods where the price deviates greatly from the regression model. But overall, the model provides a reasonably high r-square result of 82 percent.
I used the model to assess WTI oil prices for the EIA forecast period through 2021 and 2022 and compared the regression equation forecast to actual NYMEX futures prices as of January 22. The result is that oil futures prices are presently undervalued through the forecast horizon in 2022.
Uncertainties
April 2020 proved that oil prices can move dramatically based on market expectations and that they can drop far below the model’s valuations, whereas prices in May through December proved that the market factors-in future expectations beyond current inventory levels.
The most important uncertainty is how deeply and how long the coronavirus will disrupt the U.S. and world economies. The announcements of vaccines and economic stimulus lends credibility that a recovery is in store for some time in 2021.
But what kind of recovery will it be? How much of business and daily life will be altered for the longer-term? Online meetings instead of face-to-face meetings, work-from-home, and other such changes may alter petroleum demand patterns long-term.
Conclusions
OPEC has contained production more effectively than usual. Saudi Arabia decided to act unilaterally to protect its interests.
Equally, on the supply side, the transition away from fossil fuels has taken a big leap forward in 2020, with the major oil companies announcing investment shifts. The petroleum era is coming to a close, at least in terms of sustained growth as the energy transition moves along.

Another Day Another Record High For Bitcoin
| null | null |
www.ino.com

Bitcoin (BITSTAMPUSD) hit a new record high of $42,000 Friday afternoon, surpassing the previous all-time high of $40,123 that it reached on Thursday. Year-to-date gains are now over 40% making Bitcoin the strongest mover in 2021 by far. In typical bull market euphoria, Bitcoin's price has more than doubled in less than a month as new investors rush in, making sure they don't miss out. You know, FOMO, "fear of missing out," but is it too late?
Mutual fund titan Bill Miller told CNBC that "One of the things that's interesting about bitcoin is that it gets less risky the higher it goes, that's the opposite of what happens with most stocks."
He went on to say, "For those people who are waiting for the pullback, they got it in the first quarter. You could have bought bitcoin and $4,000 in the first quarter," Miller noted, referencing bitcoin's nearly 50% intraday crash in March 2020.
"But amid bitcoin's more than 300% rally in 2020 extended by an additional 40% gain already in 2021, Miller said, the price of these returns is the asset's volatility."
"You have to expect that it's going to be very, very volatile," Miller told CNBC. "If you can't take the volatility, you probably shouldn't own it. But its volatility is the price you pay for its performance."
Jehan Chu, a managing partner at Hong Kong-based crypto investment firm Kenetic Capital, told CoinDesk "Fundamentals have gone out the window, and irrational exuberance may accelerate bitcoin past the $50K level ahead of the second quarter schedule."
According to data provider Glassnode. The price rally is backed by an uptick in the on-chain activity and increased accumulation by large investors. For instance, the number of active addresses has surged to a record high of 1,343,925, surpassing the previous peak seen in December 2017.
Bitcoin's "rich list," or the number of addresses holding at least 1,000 bitcoin, has rebounded from the late-December dip to set a new lifetime high of 2,334.
Key Levels To Watch Next Week:
S&P 500 (CME:SP500) : 3,636.48
: 3,636.48 Dow (INDEX:DJI) : 29,755.53
: 29,755.53 NASDAQ (NASDAQ:COMP) : 12,525.22
: 12,525.22 U.S. Dollar (ICE:DX) : 90.66
: 90.66 Gold (NYMEX:GC.G21) : 1,925.80
: 1,925.80 Crude Oil (NYMEX:CL.G21) : 50.39
: 50.39 Bitcoin (BITCOIN:BITSTAMPUSD): 21,864.86
Every Success,

Yield Curve Relentlessly Steepens

Another week, another yield curve steepener and continuation of the trend that began in August 2019.
Flipping to the bigger picture I added in SPX, Gold, and the CRB commodity index for reference. With the levels of MMT TMM (total market manipulation) injected in the markets since Ben Bernanke cooked up the diabolical macro manipulation known as Operation Twist, I can’t pretend to quant the past to the present…
…but one observation above is that gold is in a giant and bullish Cup with the Handle-making as anticipated since the correction began from a higher high last summer, still in process.
Ref. a November post, Building Gold’s Handle
Here is the updated chart from that post. It always was going to be an extended grind to put in a proper Handle on this monthly chart. Gold is doing good work and it is doing it in a preferred (i.e. not Goldilocks) environment. Goldilocks is a product of a flattening yield curve’s boom, and a steepening yield curve is either inflationary bullish or deflationary bearish. Or as per the last cycle, both.
This is definitely not Goldilocks, which not coincidently attended gold’s bear market every step of the way.

World Oil Supply And Price Outlook, December 2020
| null | null |
www.ino.com
|
The Energy Information Administration released its Short-Term Energy Outlook for December, and it shows that OECD oil inventories likely bottomed in this cycle in June 2018 at 2.804 billion barrels. Stocks peaked at 3.210 billion in July 2020. In November 2020, it estimated stocks dropped by 34 million barrels to end at 3.057 billion, 169 million barrels higher than a year ago.
The EIA estimated global oil production at 93.45 million barrels per day (mmbd) for November, compared to global oil consumption of 95.59 mmbd. That implies an undersupply of 2.14 mmbd or 64 million barrels for the month. About 30 million barrels of the draw for November is attributable to non-OECD stocks.
For 2020, OECD inventories are now projected to build by net 127 million barrels to 3.006 billion. For 2021 it forecasts that stocks will draw by 95 million barrels to end the year at 2.910 billion.
The EIA forecast was made incorporates the OPEC+ decision to cut production and exports. According to OPEC’s press release:
Adjust their overall crude oil production downwards by 9.7 mb/d, starting on May 1st, 2020, for an initial period of two months that concludes on June 30th, 2020. For the subsequent period of 6 months, from July 1st, 2020 to December 31st, 2020, the total adjustment agreed will be 7.7 mb/d. It will be followed by a 5.8 mb/d adjustment for a period of 16 months, from January 1st, 2021, to April 30th, 2022. The baseline for the calculation of the adjustments is the oil production of October 2018, except for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and The Russian Federation, both with the same baseline level of 11.0 mb/d. The agreement will be valid until April 30th, 2022. However, the extension of this agreement will be reviewed during December 2021.”
Oil Price Implications
I updated my linear regression between OECD oil inventories and WTI crude oil prices for the period 2010 through 2019. As expected, there are periods where the price deviates greatly from the regression model. But overall, the model provides a reasonably high r-square result of 79 percent.
I used the model to assess WTI oil prices for the EIA forecast period through 2020 and 2021 and compared the regression equation forecast to actual NYMEX futures prices as of December 31st. The result is that oil futures prices are presently undervalued through the forecast horizon in 2021.
Uncertainties
April 2020 proved that oil prices can move dramatically based on market expectations and that they can drop far below the model’s valuations, whereas prices in May through December proved that the market factors in future expectations beyond current inventory levels.
The most important uncertainty is how deeply and how long the coronavirus will disrupt the U.S. and world economies. The announcements of vaccines and economic assistance lends credibility that a recovery is in store for 2021.
But what kind of recovery will it be? How much of business and daily life will be altered for the longer-term? Online meetings instead of face-to-face meetings, work-from-home, and other such changes may alter petroleum demand patterns long-term.
Conclusions
Equally, on the supply side, the transition away from fossil fuels has taken a big leap forward in 2020, with the major oil companies announcing investment shifts. The petroleum era is coming to a close, at least in terms of sustained growth.

Custom Valuations Index Suggests Precious Metals Will Decline
| null | null |
www.ino.com
|
My team prepares Custom Valuations Index charts to understand how capital is being deployed in the global markets alongside US Dollar and Treasury Yields. The purpose of the Custom Index charts in this article is to provide better insight into and understanding of underlying capital movements in various market conditions. Recently, we discovered the Custom Index chart shares a keen alignment with Gold (and likely the general precious metals sector). Let’s explore our recent analysis to help readers understand what to expect next in precious metals.
Weekly Custom Valuations Index Chart
The first thing that caught my attention was the very clear decline in the weekly Custom Valuations Index recently, as can be seen in the chart below. The second peak on the Custom Valuations Index chart occurred on the week of August 3, 2020. Gold also peaked at this very same time. This alignment started an exploratory analysis of the Custom Valuations Index and the potential alignment with the precious metals sector.
The peak in the Custom Valuations Index on March 20, 2020 (near the height of the COVID-19 market collapse) presented a very clear upside target which was confirmed with a second peak level in August 2020. The fact that the Custom Valuations Index reached that peak level again and that peak level also aligned with the peak price in Gold may just be a coincidence. As we continue to explore this unique alignment, we’ll explore more unique characteristics to see if there is a link that is more than mere chance.
There have been two very clear Pennant/Flag formations as you can see on the above weekly Custom Valuations Index chart. The first one is highlighted in BLUE and the second one is highlighted in GREEN. In both of these instances, the Custom Valuations Index broke lower and Gold followed this trend. Currently, the Custom Valuations Index has begun to breakdown into a new bearish trend. This suggests that Gold and Silver may also move lower as this Custom Index attempts to find a bottom.
Now, let’s do a more in-depth analysis of Gold and the Custom Valuations Index. In the following charts, we’ve attempted to highlight key price traits that took place in Gold over the past 9+ years and wanted to see if these key price points were reflected in the Custom Valuations Index chart. The purpose of this is to identify if our assumption that the Custom Valuations Index chart is aligned to Gold (in some way) shows any additional (past price) alignment to validate our thinking.
Weekly Gold Chart
First, we’ll start with a Weekly Gold chart that highlights key price points, peaks, bottoms, and breakout/breakdown events. We want to see if the Custom Valuations Index chart also aligned with these key price moves/dates.
The following Gold Futures Weekly chart highlights the Appreciation/Depreciation cycles we’ve identified in earlier research as well. The GREEN ARCs near the bottom of the chart show you where each cycle starts and stops. The RED descending line represents a Depreciation Cycle and the GREEN Ascending line represents an Appreciation Cycle. We are focusing on the September 2011 peak price in Gold and the key price events after the “Failure Peak” that took place to set up the bottom in early 2015, the rally in early 2016, and the breakout rally in June 2019. Does the Custom Valuations Index chart show these same characteristics and dates?
Weekly Customs Valuation Chart And Gold Price History
This next chart is the Weekly Custom Valuations Index chart with the same highlighted price points/dates. The first thing we see from this chart is that the “Failure Peak” (October 2012) was a higher price peak on this Custom Index chart than the setup on the Gold chart at the same time. Thus, the Custom Valuations Chart represented the extended “excess phase” top in Gold as a continued upward trend. The downtrend after the October 2012 peak on this Custom Valuations Index chart does align with the big breakdown on the Gold chart (above).
Today's Top 50 Stocks These Stocks Are Ready to Break Out Over 5K stocks are trading on the U.S. and Canadian exchanges. While you may hear about the same companies over and over again, some of the biggest trading opportunities can come from "no-name" stocks. See which stocks (some you may never have heard of) made it onto today's 50 top stocks ranked by their technical trend. See The Free List
Additionally, the early 2015 bottoming on the Custom Index chart represented a very early sign that Gold may be looking for a bottom as well. Gold did move lower throughout the next 11+ months, but so did the Custom Valuations Index price. It makes sense that the Custom Valuations Index may be representing underlying key market dynamics that could be applied to the Gold chart in some way.
The Initial Gold Rally in February 2016 was the first real clear trigger on both these charts that coincided with a breakout/rally trend in Gold. This rally attempt eventually stalled near the end of 2016 and began an extended “momentum base” setup. Notice how the Custom Valuations Index chart represented this momentum base as and extended sideways Pennant/Flag formation that ended near June 2019. Also, notice how the stalling in the Custom Valuations Index chart initiated many weeks before Gold actually peaked in 2016.
From the February 2019 Breakout, we can clearly see the impressive rally in the Custom Index chart aligned with a big rally in Gold. What is interesting is the DUAL PEAK in the Custom Index chart that first setup from the lows of the March 2020 COVID-19 bottom. Could it be that extreme price move somehow represented a key future target for Gold and for the Custom Index chart?
There is very little corresponding data to compare to – so we’ll have to continue to try to dig deeper for any confirmation of this unique setup. Yet, we can’t underestimate the DUAL PEAK setup on the Custom Index chart and the fact that the second peak, August 2020, also aligned perfectly with the current peak price in Gold. Since that August 2020 peak, both Gold and the Custom Index chart have continued to breakdown and trend lower. It makes sense that Gold will continue to move lower, in alignment with the Custom Index chart, attempting to find a new bottom/momentum base. We believe the 200 to 240 level on the Custom Valuations Index chart may be a suitable range for this new bottom.
One thing we can say with a moderate degree of certainty is that the Custom Valuations Index chart appears to lead the precious metals in many instances and it appears to perfectly align in other instances. Our research suggests the US and global markets have recently entered a Depreciation Cycle phase which may last many years. The Custom Valuations Index chart is suggesting that the US, global and precious metals sectors are weakening and attempting to find/set up a new momentum/base.
This would suggest that capital will move away from precious metals as well as major market sectors and attempt to find opportunities in undervalued or other hot sectors. Eventually, once the new momentum base/bottom is firmly established in Gold and the Custom Valuations Index chart, the US and Global major market sectors will likely resume a very strong upside price trend.
The key take-away from this research is that sector rotations related to precious metals, major global markets and potential early warning signs of strength or weakness may be attainable by focusing on how the Custom Valuations Index trends in comparison to Gold and the major indexes. Currently, the Custom Valuations Index is suggesting that precious metals will move lower and try to find a new bottom/base. This means other market sectors will perform better than precious metals for a period of time.
This is also an important reason to focus your attention on finding the best and hottest sectors for new trade opportunities. When broad components of the market enter bearish trends, like the Custom Valuations Index is suggesting for precious metals, it is best to have a proven system for identifying the best sector trends and trade opportunities. While one sector may stall, others are rallying. Long term success is found by focus your trading capital on the strongest opportunities while avoiding weaker trends.
Don’t miss the opportunities in the broad market sectors over the next 6+ months. 2021 and beyond are going to be incredible years for traders. Staying ahead of these sector trends is going to be key to developing continued success in these markets. As some sectors fail, others will begin to trend higher.

Leveraging Options To Navigate Frothy Markets
| null | null |

Wall Street capped off one of the most volatile years in history. The Dow Jones and S&P 500 ended the year at all-time highs, posting returns of 16.3% and 7.3%, respectively, for 2020. At the same time, the Nasdaq posted a return of 43.6% for the year. These unprecedented returns were achieved despite the S&P 500 nosediving over 30% earlier in the year due to the coronavirus pandemic sweeping the world. In this market environment harnessing options can allow traders to define risk, leverage a minimal amount of capital, and maximize returns.
All-time highs have been reached with the confluence of election certainty, improving vaccine prospects across the globe, and massive stimulus out of Washington. These positive developments have been priced into the markets. The broader indices are richly valued as measured by virtually any historical metric via stretched valuations, options put/call ratios, broad participation above 200-day moving averages, and elevated P/E ratios. Collectively, these may be potential warning signs of near-term pressures. Heeding these frothy market conditions via risk mitigation may be best served with risk-defined options trading.
Margin of Protection and Defining Risk
Harnessing options in frothy markets allows one to define risk, leverage a minimal amount of capital, and maximize returns. Options can be structured to allow a margin of downside and/or upside stock movement while collecting income in the process. In these richly valued markets, allowing a margin of downside and/or upside stock movement may be a great strategy to heed potential market volatility.
Bearish Tilt Framework - Call Credit Spreads
With markets at all-time highs and many of the positive developments priced into the market, a bearish tilt option strategy can be deployed via call credit spreads. This strategy allows the underlying stock to still appreciate further without having any downside stock movement consequences.
This strategy involves selling a call option and buying a call option while collecting a credit in the process. When selling the call option, a premium is collected and simultaneously using some of that premium income to buy a call option at a higher strike price. The net result will be a credit on the two-leg pair trade with defined risk since the purchase of the call option serves as protection.
By selling the call option, you agree to sell shares at the agreed-upon price by the agreed-upon expiration date. By buying the call option, you have the right to buy shares at the agreed-upon price by the same agreed-upon expiration date. Thus, the risk is defined, and capital requirements are minimal.
Defined Risk
A credit spread is a type of options trade that risk-defines your trades and involves selling and buying an option. Let’s review a step-by-step call spread as an example below.
Selling an option, you sell a call option, and you agree to sell shares at an agreed-upon price by an agreed-upon date in exchange for premium income.
Buying an option, you buy a call option using some of the premium received from selling the option above, and you now have the right to buy the shares at an agreed-upon price by the same agreed upon date in exchange for paying out a small premium.
Taken together, an option spread is where you sell an option and also buy a further-out-of-the money option for upside protection. The difference in the premium received, and premium paid out is the credit spread income collected.
For example, if you sell a call option at a strike price of $330 in exchange for $87 in premium, you can use some of that premium income to buy the $335 strike call option for $41 to net $43 on the trade ($87 - $44).
In this manner, you agree to sell shares at $330, and you also have the right to buy shares at $335. This will cap your losses at $457 ($500 strike width less premium received). If the stock breaks above the $335 strike protection leg, you would be assigned at $330 and exercise your right to buy shares at $335 per share. The $4.57 per share loss is the max loss you can incur, and factoring in the $43 of net premium income, the net loss is capped at $457. The stock can shoot up to infinity per share, and your loss is still capped at $457 (Figure 1).
Figure 1 – Opening a call credit spread via selling a call and buying a call while taking in net premium income during the process. Capital requirement is equal to the strike width, and risk is defined to maximize return on investment. Trade was made as part of a Trade notification service - Trade Notification Service
Options can be leveraged in a high-probability manner to generate consistent income while circumventing drastic market movements (Figure 2).
Figure 2 – Overall option metrics from May 2020 – December 31st, 2020 available via a Trade notification service - Trade Notification Service
Potential Outcomes and Scenarios
A normal call spread with the same expiration dates will expire together worthless with defined risk. If the option expires between the strikes, then losses will incur, and if the stock moves above your protection put, then max losses will occur at expiration. In a raging bull market, clusters of options trades can incur max losses and jeopardize your profit/loss statement. My goal is to limit the losses and not absorb any max losses to optimize risk management.
Example
Sell a call strike @ $330 22JAN21 and buy a call strike @ $335 22JAN21 to net $43 in premium
A. If the stock stays below $330 at expiration, then you net the $43 in premium, and both option legs co-expire worthless with 100% premium capture B. If the stock trades above $330, then you begin losing money, but the $335 strike leg caps any losses above $335. If the stock falls between your strike width at ~$332 at a loss of $2 per share, less the premium received of $0.43 per share will be your realized loss ($200 - $43 = $157 loss per contract). C. If the stock trades above the call protection leg of $335, losses are now capped at your strike width of $5 per share. If you were assigned at $330, you would then exercise your $335 strike option and buy shares at $335 to cap losses at $5 per share less premium received of $43 resulting in a max loss of $457. Even if the stock was to rise to infinity, you have the right to buy shares at $335, so any losses above $335 are prevented.
Conclusion
Stocks are ostensibly overextended with stretched valuations with P/E ratios exceeding that of the Roaring Twenties, options put/call ratios at the lowest in 20 years, and 93% of S&P 500 stocks are above their 200-day moving average. These may be potential warning signs of near-term pressures, and heeding these frothy market conditions via risk mitigation may be best served with risk-defined options trading. As markets continue to pursue uncharted bullish territory, investors should be strategic with these historical comparators as 2021 comes into the fold. A bearish tilt via risk-defined call credit spreads may be the ideal mix of defining risk, allowing additional upside movement in the underlying stock, leveraging a minimal amount of capital, and maximizing return on capital.

We can be fairly certain that votes in favor of more stimulus will be much greater thanks to the riot on Capitol Hill on Thursday.

Is More Stimulus A Slam Dunk?
| null | null |
www.ino.com
|
If there were any doubts about whether more federal helicopter money would be falling from the sky, those doubts should have been erased by several major events that happened last week.
The latest event—which likely sealed the deal—was the December jobs report, which showed the economy losing 140,000 jobs, the first drop in payrolls since last April. If Congress needed another reminder of how many people are still suffering out there and that more help is needed, that should do it.
The second event was the Democrats prevailing in the special elections for Georgia's two Senate seats, giving the party an effective majority in that body to continue holding on the House. On paper, of course, both parties have 50 seats in the Senate. But let's not forget that Vice President Kamala Harris will hold the tie-breaking vote.
But her vote probably won't be needed in the current political environment. While the Democrat majority seems razor-thin, if existent at all, we can be fairly certain that votes in favor of more stimulus will be much greater than that and bipartisan, thanks to the riot on Capitol Hill on Thursday. In light of what happened, how many Republicans do you think will be brave enough to vote against the Democrats on just about anything, particularly more stimulus checks, which many of them already favor?
It's hard to believe that soon-to-be-former Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell will stand in the way of more stimulus checks like he did last month, especially after his wife, Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao, resigned from the Cabinet last week in the wake of the riots. (I bet you didn't know that McConnell and Chao were married; talk about a Washington power couple).

And of course, while all this is going on, the news on the Coronavirus front just seems to be getting worse. While it's a good thing for the economy that there hasn't been a major shutdown like there was last spring, the fact is that more people are contracting the virus, and more people are dying. Meanwhile, the rollout of the various vaccines seems to be going a lot slower than previously anticipated.
If all of those things don't argue for more stimulus checks, and as quickly as possible, I don't know what does.
Late last year, you remember, soon-to-be-former President Trump urged Congress to increase the $600 stimulus checks to $2,000, a suggestion that was immediately seconded by Democrat leaders in Congress, probably the first time they had agreed with Trump on anything in the past four years. So with the Republicans likely to be cowed into submission in the face of the riots in the Capitol building last week, the Democrats strutting as if they have a 25-seat Senate majority and President-elect Joe Biden champing at the bit to sign a stimulus bill, another direct deposit by the secretary of the Treasury will probably be making its way into your bank account pretty soon.
Not that anybody cares anymore, but who is going to pay for all this, you ask? Why, you and me—and no one. Biden is also itching to undo Trump's tax cuts and raise taxes on "the rich," who always know how to avoid taxes. And corporations just pass the cost of them on to their customers. In the interim, the Federal Reserve stands ready as always to swallow up all that government debt and pump more money into the economy from the monetary side.
Inflation got you worried? Right now, given the weakness of the economy, there doesn't seem to be any kindling to ignite inflation in the near future, no matter how much money the government is spending. And even if that unlikely event were to occur, the Fed has already assured us that it is prepared to ignore higher inflation for at least a few years, 2023 at the earliest. Meanwhile, the largesse from Washington will continue apace.
So if you think last week's chain of events was a bad thing, you're looking at it the wrong way. On Wall Street, bad news is good news and vice versa. So relax and enjoy the money. You earned it.

S&P 500, Dollar Index, Gold, And Silver Updates
| null | null |
www.ino.com

Before I start this update about the dollar, gold and silver, I would like to show you how accurate your prediction was for the S&P 500 back in October of 2020! At the time, I demonstrated to you the well-known Cup & Handle pattern in the making. That model was promising as the target was set at an ambitious $3891 level. Let us see it again below to refresh the memory.
When I asked your opinion, whether this pattern is valid and will play out, most of you replied positively and supported my target. Let us see in the updated chart below how it played out.
Your "crystal ball" worked perfectly as the new record maximum established last Thursday at $3860 had been just $31 below the target. The price action was not straight to the target as after the post, the price dropped quite deep, and the whole model was close to invalidation. Luckily, the further reversal built the "no look back" upside move.
This proves the importance of a confirmation trigger that could keep your nerves safe. After it was triggered in November 2020, the price was only twice slightly "under the water," Since then, the gradual growth brought a hefty 9% of the profit. My congratulations!
Now let us get down to a regular update as the King will open it.
The U.S. dollar index (DXY) accurately followed the plan posted last week. The red leg 2 down started higher and moved as forecasted to the downside. It was not apparent last week as the King was on the rise. The knowledge of the structure gives us this edge.
Message From Our Sponsor My #1 Rule: Don't Buy Options (especially in this market)! Most options traders place high-risk trades, hoping for a big payout. But they lose... a LOT! Especially in today's topsy-turvy market. That's why Jim Fink flips options trading on its head, making money more than 85% of the time.

The recent move down did not tag the former valley of the red leg 1 and turned higher. The thing is that the red leg 2 already traveled a longer distance than the red leg 1, and this could be enough to complete the junction. However, the price could still retest that support at 89.92 as long as the RSI is below the crucial 50 level. Hence, the starting C point of another leg higher is in doubt. Nevertheless, the whole structure remains intact, and I kept the blue box as a target area. The majority of you chose the conservative target of 91.4 last week.
What do you think about the DXY this time? It will reverse to the upside to hit 91.4
It will reverse to the upside to hit 91.8
It will go down View Results

Now, let us look at the correlation sub-charts with precious metals. We can see that the correlation fades and eyes the neutral position. The reason is that these instruments' market price actions could lag between each other. The dollar index did not emerge the uptrend yet, while the precious metals are already sinking. It is a clear but possibly temporary de-sync.
The silver daily chart follows with a clear structure.
Silver moves in line with expectations posted last week. The C point was established around 50% Fibonacci retracement level as planned. I have adjusted the D target lower to $21.5 since we have the exact location of the C point. There is not a big difference as it is still in the area of the former low at $21.67. This one should be tagged finally to let the silver finally spread the wings and fly high.
I added the orange clone of the AB drop to visualize the path down.
Last time you bet that this metal will drop to $21.67 to complete the structure.
Do you think silver will continue down to $21.67? Yes
No, it will move up View Results

Now, let us focus on gold as it could surprise us with the set of two opposite options.
You can see two dominating colors in the chart above. The red annotations show the path to the downside as it is just an updated plan posted last week. Gold precisely follows it as its price reached and slightly passed over the expected 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level and then reversed to the downside. This overshot translated into the slightly higher target area of the red box between $1694 and $1733.
Most of you bet that gold would drop to tag only the former valley of $1765. I added the orange clone of the red leg 1 to show you the internal structure of the red leg 2.
Earlier, you surprised me with the major choice of the green path of the Rising Wedge pattern that was posted at the beginning of this month. This time I added your favorite path in the gold chart above in the same green color. We have a 4-hour time frame here; therefore, this is just a part of the pattern.
The move up that kicked off on the last day of November 2020 and finished on the sixth day of this year is labeled green leg 1. Then we saw the pullback that was quite deep to hit the 78.6 Fibonacci retracement level at $1803. The critical point of the growth of $1765 was not violated, and this could support the next move up in the green leg 2 with a target of $2000.
The green path should not break below the recent valley around $1800 to keep intact. I also added the features that could help us identify if the green path is in progress. The bright green zigzag to the upside shows the possible structure. The price should first break up the top of the consolidation above $1875 (left blue dashed resistance), and then the small retracement should follow. The next breakout (right blue dashed resistance) to the upside is the final confirmation.
Which path do you see for gold? To the downside (red)

"Before I start this update about the dollar, gold and silver, I would like to show you how accurate your prediction was for the S&P 500 back in October of 2020! At the time, I demonstrated to you the well-known Cup & Handle pattern in the making. That model was promising as the target was set at an ambitious $3891 level. Let us see it again below to refresh the memory.\nWhen I asked your opinion, whether this pattern is valid and will play out, most of you replied positively and supported my target. Let us see in the updated chart below how it played out.\nYour \"crystal ball\" worked perfectly as the new record maximum established last Thursday at $3860 had been just $31 below the target. The price action was not straight to the target as after the post, the price dropped quite deep, and the whole model was close to invalidation. Luckily, the further reversal built the \"no look back\" upside move.\nThis proves the importance of a confirmation trigger that could keep your nerves safe. After it was triggered in November 2020, the price was only twice slightly \"under the water,\" Since then, the gradual growth brought a hefty 9% of the profit. My congratulations!\nNow let us get down to a regular update as the King will open it.\nThe U.S. dollar index (DXY) accurately followed the plan posted last week. The red leg 2 down started higher and moved as forecasted to the downside. It was not apparent last week as the King was on the rise. The knowledge of the structure gives us this edge.\nMessage From Our Sponsor My #1 Rule: Don't Buy Options (especially in this market)!

Now, he's offering to show his personal strategy guide to readers, which could help you unlock as much as $67,548 in extra income. Click to Get Your Copy Now\nThe recent move down did not tag the former valley of the red leg 1 and turned higher. The thing is that the red leg 2 already traveled a longer distance than the red leg 1, and this could be enough to complete the junction. However, the price could still retest that support at 89.92 as long as the RSI is below the crucial 50 level. Hence, the starting C point of another leg higher is in doubt. Nevertheless, the whole structure remains intact, and I kept the blue box as a target area. The majority of you chose the conservative target of 91.4 last week.\nWhat do you think about the DXY this time? It will reverse to the upside to hit 91.4\nIt will reverse to the upside to hit 91.8\nIt will go down View Results\nLoading ...

U.S. Stock Market Rolls Lower
| null | null |
www.ino.com
|
Stock market price action is usually conducted in a series of up and down price phases – or waves/cycles. Typically, price will move higher or lower in phases- attempting to trend upward or downward over time. This type of price action is normal. Extended upward trends with very little downward price retracements happen sometimes – but not often. They usually happen in “excess phase” rallies or after some type of news event changes expectations for a symbol/sector.
Putting Concerns Into Perspective – Still Bullish
Since early November 2020, the US stock market has continued to rally in a mode that is similar to an excess phase rally – showing very little signs of moderate price rotation. While price volatility has continued to stay higher than normal, you can see from the SPY Daily chart below that it has rallied from $324.40 to $385.95 (over 18%) in just under 90 days. At some point in the future, a moderate price rotation/retracement will happen that may be in excess of 6% to 11% – as has happened in the past.
The purpose of this research post is to alert readers that the markets appear to have started a period of downside price rotation – which is normal. This SPY Daily chart, above, highlights the upward support channel originating from the March 21, 2020, COVID-19 lows (CYAN line) and also the upward support channel originating from the early November 2020 lows (YELLOW line).
It is important to understand that any downside price retracement which stays above the CYAN line level should be considered a normal range price rotation within a bullish trend. This suggests a -3% to -4% downside price trend from current levels would simply qualify as downward price rotation within a bullish trend – nothing more.

If price were to break below the CYAN upward trending support channel, then we would become more concerned that a deeper price downtrend is setting up which may target lows from Mid-November 2020 (-6.5%) or the late October 2020 lows (-13% to -14%) from current SPY price levels. Obviously, a deeper downside trend targeting the October 2020 lows would suggest the US stock markets are potentially entering a new phase of trending – possibly a sideways consolidation trend.
Tran Testing Support Near 12,180
The following Transportation Index daily chart shows a very clear picture of how this “rollover” in the markets has setup and where real support is likely to be found. The early January lows, near 12,180 are the most likely immediate support level on the TRAN Daily chart, below. If the US stock market attempts to find immediate support to sustain the current bullish rally trend, then this level in the TRAN will likely hold up well over the next few days/weeks. Otherwise, if the TRAN breaks below this level, then the next viable downside target become the November 2020 lows (or somewhere close to those levels).
Using Fibonacci Retracement Theory from the early November 2020 lows to recent highs, we achieve the following levels:
25% retracement: 12,628.92
38.2% retracement: 12,331.44
50% retracement: 12,065.47
61.8% retracement: 11,799.51
The 12,180 level we are suggesting will turn into critical support is just above the 50% Fibonacci Retracement level. Therefore, any further downside trending would be predicated by a breach of both the 12,180 level and the 12,065.47 level. If the price holds above either of these support levels confidently, we would consider further downside risks unlikely.
VIX Spike Higher Begins
The upward spike in the VIX recently is indicative of how volatile the markets have become after nearly 90 days of continued upward trending. Whenever the US stock market enters a decidedly bullish price trend for an extended period of time, the VIX naturally “normalizes” into a lower boundary and becomes hypersensitive to moderate price rotations. We’ve seen this happen many times in the past.
Because of the way the VIX is calculated, when these breakout moves happen while the market is conducting a relatively normal price rotation/correction, the VIX can sometimes spike above 35 or 45. To put this into perspective, the 2008-09 market crash prompted a VIX move to near 95. The COVID-19 market crash prompted a VIX move to near 85. Many other moderate market downtrends over the past 10+ years prompted VIX moves above 30~40. Three of the biggest “normal range” VIX moves happened in August 2011 (VIX level near 48), August 2015 (VIX level near 53.50), and February 2018 (VIX level near 50).
If another big market rotation were to take place in the near future, we believe early February would be the time/place for it to happen based on our predictive modeling system’s expectations (see this research article). We also believe this downside price swing will end fairly quickly and that a continued bullish price trend will resume in March or April 2021.
The potential for a broader market rotation and trend “reset” is aligning with our December 2020 predictions for 2021. Quite possibly, the downside price trending we are seeing now is the start of a 15 to 25+ day market rotation which will likely “reset” the bullish trending bias and allow for broader market trends to continue higher. We consider this an opportunity for traders to take advantage of this rotation in major markets and sectors.
2021 is going to be full of these types of trends and setups. Quite literally, hundreds of these setups and trades will be generated over the next 3 to 6 months using the Best Assets Now strategy. Are you ready for these big market rotations expected in 2021?
You don’t have to be smart to make money in the stock market, you just need to think differently. That means: we do not equate an “up” market with a “good” market and vi versa – all markets present opportunities to make money!
We believe you can always take what the market gives you, and make CONSISTENT money.

U.S. Crude Oil Production Fell In December
| null | null |
www.ino.com
|
According to the Energy Information Administration, U.S. oil inventories (excluding SPR) fell by 14.9 million barrels last week to 1.342 billion, and SPR stocks were unchanged last week. Total stocks stand 47 mmb above the rising, rolling 5-year average and about 81.0 mmb higher than a year ago. Comparing total inventories to the pre-glut average (end-2014), stocks are 283 mmb above that average.
Crude Production
Production averaged 11.0 mmbd last week, unchanged from the prior week. It averaged 11.025 mmbd over the past 4 weeks, off 14.25 % v. a year ago. In the year-to-date, crude production averaged 11.504 mmbd, off 6.5 % v. last year, over 600,000 b/d lower.
Other Supply
I have previously noted in an article how the “Other Supply,” primarily natural gas liquids and renewables, are integral to petroleum supply. The EIA reported that it fell by 24,000 b/d v. last week to 7.195 mmbd. The 4-week trend in “Other Supply” averaged 7.221 mmbd, off 0.5 % from the same weeks last year. In YTD, they are up 0.5 % from 2019.
Crude production plus other supplies averaged 18.280 mmbd over the past 4 weeks, far below the all-time-high record of 20.213 mmbd.
Crude Imports
Total crude imports fell by 238,000 mb/d last week to average 5.326 mmbd last week. This figure was below the 4-week trend of 5.396 mmbd, which in turn was off 14.4 % from a year ago.
Net crude imports fell by 248,000 b/d because exports rose by 526,000 b/d to average 3.625 mmbd. Over the past 4 weeks, crude exports averaged 2.796 mmbd, 24.9 % lower than a year ago.
U.S. crude imports from Saudi Arabia fell by 79,000 b/d last week to average 118,000 b/d. Over the past 4 weeks, Saudi imports have averaged 167,000 b/d, down 62.0 % from a year ago.

Crude imports from Canada rose by 8,000 b/d last week, averaging 3.212 mmbd. Imports over the past 4 weeks averaged 3.484 mmbd, down 5.3 % v. a year ago.
Net oil exports averaged 292,000 b/d over the past 4 weeks. That compares to net oil exports of 305,000 mb/d over the same weeks last year.
Crude Inputs to Refineries
Inputs rose by 273,000 b/d last week averaging 14.287 mmbd. Over the past 4 weeks, crude inputs averaged 14.230 mmbd, off 15.6 % v. a year ago. In the year-to-date, inputs averaged 14.249 mmbd, off 14.2 % v. a year ago.
Crude Stocks
Over the past 4 weeks, crude oil supply exceeded demand by 382,000 mb/d.
Commercial crude stocks 493.5 mmb are now 63.6 million barrels higher than a year ago.
Petroleum Products
Given the recent net product stock draws, product demand has exceeded supply by 273,000 mb/d.
Total U.S. petroleum product stocks at 849 mmb are 11 million barrels higher than a year ago.
Product exports fell by 58,000 mmb/d last week, averaging 5.656 mmbd. The 4-week trend of 5.266 mmbd is off 3.9 % from a year ago. In the year-to-date, exports averaged 5.034 mmbd, off 1.8 % from a year ago.
Demand
Total petroleum demand averaged 19.068 mmbd over the past 4 weeks, off 6.4 % v last year. In the YTD, product demand averaged 18.343 mmbd, off 12.0 % v. the same period in 2019.
Gasoline demand at the primary stock level fell by 833,000 b/d last week and averaged 7.931 mmbd over the past 4 weeks, off 13.2 % v. the same weeks last year. In the YTD, it reported that gas demand is off 12.8 % v. a year ago.
Distillate fuel demand, which includes diesel fuel and heating oil, rose by 539,000 b/d last week, and averaged 3.790 mmbd over the past 4 weeks, up 0.3 % the same weeks last year. In the YTD, demand is off 8.1 % v. a year ago.
Jet fuel demand is off 31.8 % over the past 4 weeks v. last year. In the year-to-date, demand was off 39.5 % v. 2019.
Product Stocks
Gasoline stocks are now 5.9 mmb lower than a year ago, ending at 236.6 mmb.
Distillate stocks are 18.3 mmb higher than a year ago, ending at 152.0 mmb.
Conclusions
As perhaps the most eventful year in modern petroleum history comes to a close, we find U.S. petroleum demand still struggling to recover. Even the intro of a vaccine and promises of economic help have yet to stem the majority of the demand loss.
Petroleum product stocks have corrected but crude stocks remain stubbornly high. Low refinery runs have contributed.
The worst of this saga appears over. But the future may be changed forever.

Options: "Rolling" Option Trades
| null | null |
www.ino.com
|
When engaging in options trading, it is only a matter of when, not if, a trade will move against you and challenge your strike. Despite being disciplined and following the 10 rules in options trading, trades will be challenged, and some losses are inevitable. However, some of these potential losing trades can be managed effectively to circumvent losses altogether via rolling. Given the right set of circumstances, trades can be rolled by closing out the pending trade for a debit and subsequently opening a new trade with a later date and further out-of-the-money strikes for an overall credit.
Options trading enables traders to define risk, leverage a minimal amount of capital, and maximize return on investment. Options trading can create smooth and consistent portfolio appreciation without predicting how the market will move. Options enable one to generate consistent and durable monthly income in a high probability manner in both bear and bull market scenarios.
An agile options-based portfolio is essential to navigate pockets of volatility and mitigate market downdrafts. The September correction, October nosedive, and election volatility into November are prime examples of why risk management is paramount. Over the past ~9 months (May-January), 190 trades were placed and closed. An options win rate of 97% was achieved with an average ROI per winning trade of 7.7% and an overall option premium capture of 82% (Figures 1 – 4). The performance of an options-based portfolio demonstrates the durability and resiliency of options trading to drive portfolio results with substantially less risk. Rolling option trades can be part of the overall options strategy to circumvent losses and mitigate risk.

What is Rolling?
Rolling a trade is a mitigation strategy that is deployed when an option’s strike leg is breached. Once the strike is breached, potential losses come into play. Rolling a trade involves closing out the pending trade that is challenged for a debit and then opening a new trade for a credit. The net credit received will negate the debit required to close out the initial trade while providing net premium income. The new trade will be in the same underlying security but later dated with further out-of-the-money strikes. This rolling strategy provides more time and more of a buffer in the stock price movement while circumventing the loss.
Why Roll Trades
A statistical edge or probability of success is on your side when selling options that are out-of-the-money. This statistical edge is jeopardized when the strike price is breached, and the probability of success is no longer in your favor. This statistical edge must be reset by rolling a trade to reestablish this edge to your advantage. Rolling out to a later date and further out-of-the-money strikes will reestablish this statistical edge and allow more time for the trade to work through the unexpected price excursion.
Initial Trade is Key
Each initial option trade should be structured in such a way that enables the ability to roll the trade in the event the trade is challenged during the option lifecycle. Initial trade structure is imperative, so rolling can easily be a viable option if needed.

Initial strike width selection needs to be narrow. If the strike width is too wide and the trade breaks down well below the protection leg, then the debit required to close the trade will be too great to overcome with a new credit without being over-leveraged in that trade. Rolling a trade is a last resort lever to pull, so allow the trade to mature as close as possible to its expiration date. This will allow mean reversion to possibly take place and retrace back to out-of-the-money territory so rolling can possibly be avoided altogether.
Dangers of Rolling
When a trade breaches the strike price, one must be careful not to overleverage the amount of capital dedicated to the rolling trade. The underlying security may continue to move against your directional trade; thus, allocation discipline is key. You do not want to dedicate too much capital, nor do you want to continue to allocate capital to a losing trade. Often, absorbing the loss may be the most prudent action if the initial rolling of the trade failed to circumvent losses. Continuing to roll the trade to overcome the debits required to close out the preceding trade(s) will require more leverage in one’s portfolio. This can be a dangerous cycle since strike widths will likely need to be widened and/or the number of contracts will need to be increased. These two elements will require more capital and potential for larger losses than initially set forth.
Two Examples (Mastercard and FedEx)
Rolling decisions are made based on data and circumstances available at the time of that decision. In hindsight, rolling a trade may not have been necessary when expiration comes to fruition. Often, more patience is required to allow the trade to unfold further into its option lifecycle. Hindsight is always 20/20; however, based on the stock movement, strike price being breached, and statistical edge no longer in one’s favor, rolling is the best way to reset the statistical edge in your favor. Mastercard (MA) and FedEx (FDX) were two trades that I rolled; however, in hindsight, both trades would have expired worthless anyway, so rolling was not needed.
A put spread on MA was sold with a $295/$290 and then rolled out a month to a further out-of-the-money $275/$265 strike pair. At the original expiration date and strike of $295, the trade moved back to out-of-the-money and would have expired worthless, so the realized profits were pushed out a month due to rolling the trade. The initial trade was closed for a debit of $632, and the new trade was opened for a credit of $806, thus still generating $173 in net premium profit.
A put spread on FDX was sold with a $250/$240 and then rolled out a month to further-out-of-the money $230/$220 strike pair. At the original expiration date and strike of $250, the trade moved back to out-of-the-money and would have expired worthless, so the potential realized profits were pushed out a month due to rolling the trade. The initial trade was closed for a debit of $703, and the new trade was opened for a credit of $882, thus still generating $180 in net premium profit.
In these cases, rolling was not necessary; however, this allowed for the statistical edge to be reestablished and provided breathing room in trades that were challenged during the option lifecycle unfolding. Profits were still realized, albeit a month postponed.
Conclusion
Rolling can be an effective mitigation strategy when faced with a challenged strike price. An option’s statistical edge must be reset by rolling a trade to reestablish this edge to your advantage. Rolling out to a later date and further out-of-the-money strikes allows more time for the trade to work through the unexpected price excursion. Often, more patience is required to allow the trade to unfold further into its option lifecycle prior to deciding on rolling a trade.
An options-based approach provides a margin of safety while circumventing the impacts of drastic market moves and contains portfolio volatility. Sticking to the core fundamentals of options trading, one can leverage small amounts of capital, define risk, and maximize investment return. Following the 10 rules in options trading demonstrates the durability and resiliency of an options-based portfolio to outperform during pockets of market turbulence. To this end, cash-on-hand, long exposure to broad-based ETFs and options is an ideal mix to achieve the portfolio agility required to mitigate uncertainty and volatility expansion.

A Poisoned Silver Arrow

There is a quote from my post in November of 2020 - "Silver could spoil this party where the stars aligned for DXY and gold." I've meant that the uncompleted chart structure in the silver graph could signal a more complex correction despite the bullish move as it was just the junction between larger downside moves. These words turned prophetic as a poisoned silver arrow hit precious metals badly last week.
Hold on tight; the roller-coaster ride carries on.
Let us start with the silver chart below, and you will see why I chose it to be the first.
You saw this chart a month ago when I was questioning "Could Santa Only Visit Gold?" as I doubted the non-stop rocket move for silver.
It is the exact same chart with an updated price graph. The green leg (ii) of the joint moved exactly as projected in December. It just traveled a longer distance equal to 1.414 of the green leg (i). That is why I turned the orange trend channel higher.
Message From Our Sponsor 3 Proft Triggers for Cannabis Stocks in 2021 Ater falling sharply in 2019, the sector was hit hard again in the spring when COVID-19 ravaged global markets. Cannabis stocks and sentiment hit a multi-year low, and many cannabis investors threw in the towel. But cannabis stocks followed a pattern like we've seen many times before on Wall Street. Extreme pessimism sets the stage for an enormous rally. The rally may continue after boosts from three big events in 2021 See The 3 Profit Triggers
I cloned the preceding red leg 1 to build the second red leg to the downside with the red zigzag aiming in the area of $20. Now, it should at least tag the former valley of $21.67 that has been missed in November. This could be enough to complete the entire corrective phase and continue to the upside.
The blue C point is yet to be established. The initial target for a new blue CD segment based on the projected downside target area of red leg two is around $38. I will adjust it later.
What do you think is next for silver? Drop to tag the former low of $21.67
Drop to $20 area
It will move to the upside (bullish) View Results

Gold indeed puzzled me as I was weighing all visible factors, including a bouncing dollar, a plummeting silver, a rocketing Bitcoin, and rising ten-year yields. I can see three possible scenarios now.
As long as gold is above the invalidation point of $1765, we can consider the recent drop as a retracement ahead of the next move up within the blue CD segment, which targets the $2400 area. This will contradict the possible reversal of the dollar index, although both instruments could move along amid the safety bid for some time. Something terrible should happen then with the World.
The green annotations mark the possible Rising Wedge pattern, which could appear in the chart. It will complete the move up ahead of either a total reversal or another consolidation. The target then could be limited with wide seesaw moves around $2200.
You've already seen this red path on the silver chart, but here is one difference. The structure is neat as we have two clear legs down, and in the case of another drop, it will be marked as #3. The red zigzag down shows the breakdown as we should see two minor moves to the downside, and the first one could already be over. The minor consolidation should link both legs ahead of the last drop to touch the red dashed channel's downside around $1700. The minimum target for leg 3 is located in the former valley of $1765.
If the red path emerges, then the target to the upside will be moved lower to $2300 as highlighted in the chart above with the C1D1 blue dashed up arrow.
Which scenario do you see for gold? Blue (bullish only)
Green (bullish, Rising Wedge)

That is why I turned the orange trend channel higher.\nMessage From Our Sponsor 3 Proft Triggers for Cannabis Stocks in 2021 Ater falling sharply in 2019, the sector was hit hard again in the spring when COVID-19 ravaged global markets. Cannabis stocks and sentiment hit a multi-year low, and many cannabis investors threw in the towel. But cannabis stocks followed a pattern like we've seen many times before on Wall Street. Extreme pessimism sets the stage for an enormous rally. The rally may continue after boosts from three big events in 2021 See The 3 Profit Triggers\nI cloned the preceding red leg 1 to build the second red leg to the downside with the red zigzag aiming in the area of $20. Now, it should at least tag the former valley of $21.67 that has been missed in November. This could be enough to complete the entire corrective phase and continue to the upside.\nThe blue C point is yet to be established. The initial target for a new blue CD segment based on the projected downside target area of red leg two is around $38. I will adjust it later.\nWhat do you think is next for silver?

I can see three possible scenarios now.\nAs long as gold is above the invalidation point of $1765, we can consider the recent drop as a retracement ahead of the next move up within the blue CD segment, which targets the $2400 area. This will contradict the possible reversal of the dollar index, although both instruments could move along amid the safety bid for some time. Something terrible should happen then with the World.\nThe green annotations mark the possible Rising Wedge pattern, which could appear in the chart. It will complete the move up ahead of either a total reversal or another consolidation. The target then could be limited with wide seesaw moves around $2200.\nYou've already seen this red path on the silver chart, but here is one difference. The structure is neat as we have two clear legs down, and in the case of another drop, it will be marked as #3. The red zigzag down shows the breakdown as we should see two minor moves to the downside, and the first one could already be over. The minor consolidation should link both legs ahead of the last drop to touch the red dashed channel's downside around $1700. The minimum target for leg 3 is located in the former valley of $1765.\nIf the red path emerges, then the target to the upside will be moved lower to $2300 as highlighted in the chart above with the C1D1 blue dashed up arrow.\nWhich scenario do you see for gold?

The things we are taught about a bond's risks are not always true, depending on how you are invested in the bond, bonds, or a bond ETF.

The Problem With Bond ETFs Right Now
| null | null |
www.ino.com

One of the first things an early or new investor is typically told is that bonds are safer than stocks but will offer lower capital appreciation than stocks. Or in simpler terms, bonds are less risky, and, therefore, they offer a lower reward. But in reality, these things we are taught about a bond's risks are not always true, depending on how you are invested in the bond, bonds, or a bond ETF.
Most people speak of the risk profile when they are talking about low risk. Low reward bonds is a scenario when the investor holds the individual bond themselves. Like stock ownership, a bond investor can buy individual bonds and hold them in their portfolio.
Let's quickly look at how and why bond prices change before we go any further. Say you buy a 1-year bond for $980.00, and when it matures in a year, it will be worth $1,000, meaning the bond you bought is yielding a 2% rate of return. Now let's say you hold the bond for the full year; you will make your 2% or $20 and be happy. Your only risk in this scenario is that whoever sold you the bond defaults on it, which for this example, is probably not likely. (The higher the interest rate on the bond at the initial time of sale typically indicates how risky the bond is and how likely the bond seller is to default. 2% is a very low risk in normal market conditions.)
If you plan to hold and ride the bond to mature, bonds are very low risk, as we have all been taught. However, if you plan to sell the bond before maturity, you are increasing your risk. For example, when you own the bond we spoke about above, that is paying a 2% rate of return, if the current market is demanding say a 4% rate of return on bonds, then to sell your bond, which you paid $980 for, you would have to offer another investor a 4% rate of return, or sell the bond at $960, so the buyer could realize a 4% rate of return, which is the current going rate for a bond if they held the bond to maturity.
Now the flip side is also true. If you paid $980 and got a 2% rate of return, but bond yields fall to 1%, you could sell your bond at $990, offering the new buyer the 1% rate of return, which is what the market is commanding at the time.

So, when bond interest rates fall, current or older bonds with higher interest rates are more valuable. But when bond prices increase, current or older bonds that now have lower interest rates than what new bonds are being offered will fall in value. However, in all scenarios, if you just hold the bond until it matures, you will realize the original interest rate or rate of return you were offered.
Now the points above are key to understanding why you may have bought into more risk than you realized when you bought that bond Exchange Traded Fund. Not all, but most bond ETFs will not hold the underlying bonds until maturity. Therefore, they will likely sell the bond at either a profit or loss, which is already increasing your risk of owning the bond fund.
More so, we know that because of the Federal Reserve, bond prices are currently very, very, very low on a historical basis. This means there is a good chance that interest rates for the bond will go higher in the future, and therefore current bonds will see their value decline as other bonds offer a more attractive interest rate. This is where the risk for a bond investor, who doesn't plan to hold until maturity, is going to be facing in the coming years.
But since you understand what the risks to owning bonds are, now you may have a better idea of how to reduce some of that risk, even though you still may own or want to own bond funds.
We can quickly take a look at three different bond funds and how each may increase or reduce your bond risk.
The first is the iShares Core U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF (AGG). This bond ETF is, in the simplest terms, investing in the bond market. Just like people say that if you buy an S&P 500 ETF, you are investing in the market, buying the AGG is investing in the bond market. It holds a vast array of bonds, and it will give you full exposure to the bond market. This is both a good and bad thing at a time like this because you will be holding old bonds that may lose value if higher rates start hitting the market, but then you will own those higher-rate bonds when they become available. However, I would stay away from this because there is still a lot of interest rate rising risk within the current bond market.
The next is the Vanguard Long-Term Bond ETF (BLV), which invests in long term bonds. Currently, about 70% of the fund holds bonds maturing in 20 to 30 years. 23% of the fund is in bonds maturing in 10 -20 years. This long exposure can be a good thing because the fund likely holds bonds with higher return rates than what is being offered in today's current market situation. That means the bonds this fund holds will not likely lose a ton of value if interest rates go higher. And depending on how high they go, the fund may not lose any value if the bonds it owns are paying a higher interest rate than what the market is offering on new bonds.
Finally, we have the SPDR Bloomberg Barclays 1-3 Month T-Bill ETF (BIL). This ETF only owns U.S. Treasury bonds that mature in 1 to 3 months. This can be a good thing when you believe interest rates will rise because you will not be holding a bond ETF that will be losing value as the bond prices decline. This bond fund likely holds the bonds it owns until maturity or very close to it, therefore not losing a ton of value on the bond price itself. Yes, this fund will not offer a lot of upside potential due to its very short bond holding period and likely corresponding very low-interest rates. However, it will offer very, very low risk.
Bond investing is similar to stock investing in that there are a lot of moving parts. When someone gives you advice, regardless of who it is from, do your research to fully understand the amount of risk you are taking before making a decision. Bonds in one form can be very low risk, but they can be too much for the average bond investor to stomach in another form.

With a VPN, Get Around The Blackout
There are many reasons for individual users to block certain streaming service content. In certain parts of the world, professional sports blackout local teams. Services such as Netflix prohibit content from viewing depending on which country you are located in. Geo-blocking is called this process.
Technologies such as Smart DNS or a VPN can get around geo-blocking and make your machine or smart device appear to be located in another country or state. If you fly abroad by having access to content, you can usually view it at home. This can help. It can also actually make it look like anywhere else you live.
A VPN service like IPVanish allows you to join a Virtual Network in another part of the country or world. The VPN makes it appear as your computer is in that part of the world as well. A VPN also adds security benefits not available from a Smart DNS.
For instance, if you live in Canada, using a VPN based in the U.S. will allow you to view the U.S. version of Netflix, which has more content available than in Canada. For more information, check out this article where I explain what a VPN is and why everyone should use one.
This form of service is often used to bypass blackouts of sports networks or simply to hide your identity from would-be identity thieves online. Of course, review the terms of service of your content provider to ensure that you do not breach any end-user contracts. IPVanish is something we like to use for getting around Geo-Blocking. In our analysis of IPVanish, we covered their operation.
How to bypass blackouts: a quick guide
The simplest way to beat MLB.com, NHL.com and ESPN+ blackouts is to use a Virtual Private Network (VPN), Here’s a quick guide to unblocking NHL games with a VPN:
Start by signing up for a suitable free VPN.
Install the VPN software, making sure to get the right app for your operating system, and log in.
Log in to your ESPN+ or NHL.tv account. You should find that you can now access games that were previously subject to a blackout.
If you are not able to figure out a VPN you can also sign up and watch on streaming services AT&T TV.

Helping Children Understand Digital Dangers
| null | null |
www.deadzones.com
|
Parenting in 2020 isn’t an easy task. Parents are asked to protect their children not only from physical threats but digital ones too. The worst part about keeping kids from harm is spoiling their natural optimism with the pragmatic and necessary knowledge to stay safe online.
The most important factor to explain to your children is that anything posted on the web will be there forever. Kids these days don’t have the luxury of private childhoods, not really. Every awkward phase, mistake, and bad haircuts can be saved in perpetuity on servers and other people’s computers.
Family-Friendly YouTube?
It isn’t just YouTube that has sketchy content masquerading as child-friendly programming. There are lots of misleading content out there parading as kid’s shows.
Thankfully, YouTube does have parental control features that can reduce the chances of your kids coming across inappropriate media. You can’t completely block out disturbing content, but there are a few steps you can take to minimize exposing your child to adult media.
Preview Content Before Allowing Kids to View a Program: Fast-forwarding through a program to scan for any red flags is an easy way to keep track of what entertainment your children consume. Also, opt for headphone-free viewing so you can censor the material if necessary.
Block Inappropriate Channels and Artists: Social media outlets and news agencies frequently report scams and salacious materials pretending to be kid-friendly content.
Prohibit Search Functions: Turning off the search function on YouTube is particularly helpful for protecting young, literate, and curious minds.
Set-up YouTube Kids: This function doesn’t prevent everything but it does a decent job of blocking out adult content.
The Basic Rules for Avoiding Digital Dangers!
Truly the most effective defense against digital threats is keeping an open line of communication between you and your child.
Teaching them a few basic concepts will allow them to develop protective skills and earn a little independence in the process.
The following a few basic rules for kids to follow for safe internet activity.
A. Keep Personal Data Private! Personal information like addresses, email, phone numbers, school locations, check-ins, and other shareable data is dangerous for anyone of any age. Predators can use birthday messages to prize birthdates or spy identifiable locations in photos. Teach your kids to protect their privacy like a shark patrolling shallow waters.
B. Internet Equals Eternity – Everything that has ever been posted on the web is still there, like history it isn’t going anywhere. Being thoughtful about developing an online presence is key to future success. Remind them NOT to post anything they wouldn’t be proud to show to everyone in their life.
C. Teach Kids About Real-Life Consequences. Children need to know about the legal aspects of online activity. Bullying, sexually related content and terroristic threatening are all crimes that have criminal consequences, even for kids. Many families have faced heartbreaking court cases due to antisocial online behavior.
D. Password Privacy – Criminals are evolving as the web does. Children must have private, complex passwords which include upper and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Monitoring your child’s privacy settings should be done routinely.
Finally, Don’t Accept Friend Request from Strangers and Don’t Meet Anyone Without Parental Consent!
Facebook reports that half of all users have accepted a stranger’s friend request.
Social media is changing, and unsolicited requests are frequently being diverted to junk files but discussing digital stranger danger should be a top priority.
