    thanks



    CMG earnings after the close, last time the stock fell pretty hard, if they do well tonight expect at least a $40-$50 jump to new highs.....I don't own it just thought since it was close to a 52 week high that if earnings do come in quite well it should have no problem breaking highs after the bell...

    CMG beats eps but falls short on revenue stock sliding afterhours, down to $660


    OFF $30 + in After hours trading.....glad I didn't buy, anyway with as strong as this bull market has been it will lift it right back up to near $700 again in the next month or so, I have noticed that certain stocks after falling hard prop right back up in these raging bull markets

    I am not looking at earnings, just monthly chart & it looks like it needs to retrace for starters.

    Why not go long if this happens every day, put a stop and reverse 2% under the market or something...sure one day it will reverse, but why would the govt let it right now?

    Many emerging markets are performing better than the US, we are in a tight range, 2015 has not done much but burn premium.

    There are better markets for risk than the US as we speak. Seems recent capital flight from emerging markets has ceased with the recent action of USD and rates. All these peices fit together and the US is likely to continue to underperform if you beleive that a trend can continue. Of course US stocks could breakout here but they have been lagging.
    To your point about Greece, i wonder if a "fix" is priced in. Regardless, German equity outperformance is trending and thats tradeable as well going forward.
    Maybe short ES vs. all the above for risk management even though we all know it is zero and a caveman can do it. At least this is an attempt at alpha with a hedge just in case risk is not quite zero. EM should outperform if US breaks out
    here as long as the breakout is not due to outstanding US economic data, which is unlikely.
