While the 10Y did break the Bear trend last week, other indicators are right up against it like the 30Y $TYX. I have so much short duration on that I decided to start picking up a preferred security of all things. The trend feels higher, but I've decided to nibble just in case.
There is so much stupid out there in this market that it's hard to just point at one thing, but I take some solace in that at least the "rare earth" bubble is starting to deflate a bit. #$USAR

This is the 30 day avg volume ratio between #$METC / #$METCB. The PIK on the B strategy started to work, but as the RRE spec came back into the picture, it's all gone towards the A class again.
I think it's time for the board to toss in the towel on this experiment and collapse the 2 share classes.

Just posting this as I know of a situation where a small-cap manager is getting replaced by another, because they focus too much on quality and fundies that has caused them to trail benchmarks (R2K) recently. Long-term though, they will win out. #$SML / #$RUT total return basis.

Chart shows it doesn't have to spell doom, but suggests the semi's are at least long in the tooth for a move when the weekly sma(30) of the rsi(10) has moved all the way greater than 70. Traders just love the vol in these things. 🎰

The #$UNH report has taken #$CVS from the top to the bottom of this range it has been in since last fall. Looks to me like UNH has been pushing the PBM biz to make up for Insurance struggles as the bump in the snake still is working its way through for them. CVS may have already passed. We'll see.

Macrocharts still isn't here, but out of all the posts noting the crazy high volume in #$SLV yesterday, this chart comparing it with #$SPY volume caught my eye the most. The fact that we're seeing this level of speculation without anyone even trying to corner the market like in '81 is just wild.

Last year I penned a piece theorizing that #$CNI could see Intermodal benefit from the Tariff Terror. Thesis got interrupted by the #$UNP #$NSC news, but here are the final numbers on container traffic at Vancouver and Price Rupert ports. The latter in particular saw sustained increased volume.

Best thing so far today I see is profitable small-caps (S&P 600) materially outperforming the R2K crap. Let's see if that holds till the end.

Maybe it's just me but this doesn't feel like it's getting enough attention. Considering how long its been a death trade, surprised at how little I'm hearing and no one doing victory laps or apocalyptic predictions etc... Wouldn't be surprised if this is #1 issue for '26 in retrospect.

The last hold out is knocking on the door, but the 30Y still hasn't broken through yet. I admit I bought some duration yesterday for an account that is ultra-conservative. For context, after the purchase, 70% is in fixed income, of which now only 30% is greater than a 1 year T-Bill. 👀 #$TYX

#$USB put up a nice report this morning. There are lots of things I like in this bank, and I don't understand why it trades at a discount to its peers.

166.98 would wipe out that Buy signal and generate a Triple Sell signal on #$NVDA's 2% box chart, so suggest someone notifies the PPT soon about the world's number one stock.
