Intraday Watch List for Thursday, July 23rd...

Because I don't really care that blogging is about 10 years behind the times, I'm back for another daily intraday watch list.

Earnings season is still in full effect... the only thing I'd be on the watch out for is the crude inventories report that comes out at 10 EST in case you're playing energy names.  Also, be on the lookout for CELG earnings and what that can do for other biotech names... the sector has been one of best performers of the year.

Here we go...

LONG BREAKOUTS:

SGEN
DST
TIF
CMG
ACN
DNKN
UA
GME


SHORT BREAKOUTS:

TMUS

Modeling Black-Litterman; Part 1 - Reverse Optimization

  "The 'radical' of one century is the 'conservative' of the next." -Mark Twain In this series, I'm going to explore some of the advances in portfolio management, construction, and modeling since the advent of Harry Markowitz's Nobel Prize winning Modern Portfolio Theory (MPT) in 1952. MPT's mean-variance optimization approach shaped theoretical asset allocation models for decades after its introduction.  However, the theory failed to become an accepted industry practice, so we'll explore why that is and what advances have developed in recent years to address the shortcomings of the original model. The Problems with Markowitz For the purpose of illustrating the benefits of diversification in a simple two-asset portfolio, Markowitz's model was a useful tool in producing optimal weights at each level of assumed risk to create efficient portfolios.   However, in reality, investment portfolios are complex and composed of large numbers of holdin

Evidence the SPY is Overbought...

 A quick note on the recent market rally here of late.  It's plain to see the markets have been on a tear for the month of June (and going back into May for the QQQ) as the SPY closed today at its highest level in almost fourteen months. If we start to look at the historical levels, however, it appears the SPY may be overbought in the short-run and susceptible to a mean-reverting pattern. Here's the daily chart of the SPY as of today's (6/15/23) close... When looking at the distance between the closing price and the 50-day moving average (illustrated by the yellow bar), we're noticing a large gap... this can be measured by a statistic I developed which I casually refer to as "variance"... or the distance between current prices and their respective moving averages. Historically, throughout the life of the SPY (which debuted in January of '93), the variance over the 50-day moving average has peaked at a reading of 3.20... today's reading posts up at 2.49
