Hello Everybody, Welcome to my market letter.
To learn more about my Fat Pitch ETF Advisory, please click here.
We got stopped out on PAL which was an individual Stock not an ETF but we replaced it with two ETF'S on Gold. The metals appear poised for an upward advance. Even though Palladium was the first out of the box, it is now the lager. We will just stick with the Gold trades for now.
Trade Actions:
There are no trade actions for now. Very difficult environment.
Market Outlook/Potential Opportunities:
Not sure about the market right now. I cannot be bearish here but I cannot be bullish either. Should be a trading range with a lot of volatility. The trend for the stock market is still down but too much risk to be short. FBT Biotech should be a leader in any up move and is showing good relative strength. I would love to be in an Oil ETF, but when I started this letter the oil market was already trading pretty high. Chances are that it is going to trade higher, which is all the more reason to stay with the Nuclear and Biofuel Funds.
