Even though the overall global markets are overbought with the ConnorsRSI reading of our Country Fund ETF Universe above 70, the U.S. is beginning to pullback and QQQ is the most oversold Country ETF today. This has allowed the Daily Battle Plan Model Portfolio to gain both long and short exposure at the same time […]

Equities Boosted Further in Overbought Conditions
The market continues to absorb less than stellar news on both the earnings front and the economic front as the cash glut continues to find its way into equities. The overall markets around the world today are overbought and will likely open up even more overbought. Ideally we’ll see a 1-3 day reversal, something that […]

Overbought Conditions Remain
As we have seen a few times a year since 2009, overbought markets in bull markets can stay that way for extended periods of time and that is what is occurring now. Panic buying (money on the sidelines that had to get invested) occurred on Thursday and again in the last 15 minutes of trading […]
