So... a little chop... leaning weak... no drama. There is a fair amount of data tomorrow morning, but once that is out of the way, the market can be expected to churn into the holiday break.
--
notable weakness, ROKU
Dragged lower on an RBC mixed downgrade, although holding p/t to $90. The stock was s/t bearish anyway.
--
notable weakness: AMD
Yesterday's black candle is playing out.
--
notable strength, AMRN
Amarin has raised guidance, and the stock is seeing a powerful jump. Things would turn wildly bullish if the double top of the 23s can be exceeded. Today's news does indeed bode for such an eventual super-breakout.
--
notable miner: GOLD
Barrick Gold, along with most of the other miners, is seeing a rebound. Cyclically though, the stock still looks s/t vulnerable. In the process of seeing a bearish macd cross... the cautious will wait at least another day.
