Dump oil stocks

August 22, 2017 by Don Roth

If you own stocks in the oil patch I recommend selling them. There is no end in sight for the deterioration of price. Exxon Mobil Corp (XOM) monthly XOM is just one example. I could show you many more where price is just getting crushed. Just look at the chart. You don't need special glasses to see this. Trade Smart, Don … [Read more...]

And, many times, they go down fast. We might have have another down day tomorrow. It's the nature of the beast. S&P 500 ETF (SPY) daily ​​​​​​​ Corrections are healthy. Price reversion to a mean is usually an excellent opportunity to add to positions or enter new positions. We will s … [Read more...]
