I also came to realize, before moving to Joby he co-founded
Pinterest. So, being worth several billion already, the money from
Joby is relatively meaningless to him, especially since he has
pledged to give half his net worth away to charity.
Fundamental....Funny story. I was talking to a close friend of
mine the other night and we were laughing about some crazy EV
stocks. He said to me, do you remember Paul that we used go out
drinking with? Of course I did, because my friend had hired him and
we used to buy his beers when he used to come out with us after
work in the city back about 15 years ago....long story short, I
come to find out that he is the Executive Chairman of Joby, which I
had never even heard of to that point.
Watch the dollar, whether it is making a short term top now that
it has hit some upside targets here will be the deciding factor in
whether GLD lingers in this support zone or rallies out from this
compressed state. (Still room higher to 93+, but we are pretty
extended in DXY and compressed in GLD/SLV)
Stevie Cohen’s traders used to be some of the many clients I
provided market color and liquidity to. Needless to say there was
very little room for error as I was by definition always on the
wrong side of every turn when providing liquidity in those
names.
That is absolutely the case. Semi’s are extremely sensitive to
economic growth or lack there of. In large part, because it is a
commodity business
The moment the market would hit any type of a bottom, even on
short term charts, it would be a sure thing that the squak box
would be barking...you just sold 250,000 AMAT with more behind it
(or KLAC, etc,etc.)
A few days ago I shared some charts of intra-market relative
analysis. One of them was Semi’s vs NDX. The reason I did was
regardless of what everything else is doing, generally, the semis
are always a canary in the coal mine for the market. So, keeping
that in mind, it pays to always watch the technical position of
SMH. I have been operating under the presumption that the market
was in trouble since it hit its 2.618 expansion target, and that at
a minimum it would need to decline to the recent.236 retracement to
around 220 to take the pressure off things. Now that my target has
been hit, and we have some support from the linear regression
channel, it colors my short term “lean” less bearish. (As I
spent years advising hedge funds on semi’s I can say without
question they take the same approach.) It is no panacea, but it
helps inform trading decisions.
It always pays to consider possible longer term outcomes even if
you dont trade off them simply because it forces you to have a
better understanding of the macro picture. I have been operating
under the presumption that if we hit a long term top we are in a
rolling top. That means the NDX already made its top and any
new legs up will be led by the SPX/IWM (ex Martin Pring’s
work suggests a long time reversal of the NDX/Oil relationship
which is similar to the 2000 top and led to an almost decade long
period of weakness in tech).. One possible option that becomes
higher odds after yesterday is that SPX is in the process of now
forming a head and shoulders top (which could always form then
fail). In that scenario we would see the right shoulder form here
and then come back to the grey neckline over the next few
months.
Again, not a prognostication, just one possible option to
consider going forward.
I posted this support line yesterday, but on a different time
frame. As far as the SPX is concerned so far, this pullback is
nothing but a pullback after reaching the 3.618 overhead target at
@3950 back down to test support at the old megaphone
trendline.

Nice trade off the 12200 level NDX using SPX because of the relative strength, reasonable place to take some off at this .618.
