Summary

closing hour action: micro chop, leaning a touch weak, as s/t momentum settled fractionally negative.

… and that concludes a pretty standard turnaround Tuesday. With a new hist’ high, it was a day for the equity bulls. Having seen the 3700s, now its merely a case of whether Tom Lee’s 3800 target is hit… with sixteen trading days left of the year. Probably… right?


notable stock: AMD

Yesterday’s black candle played out. Whether that was partly due to the pretty lousy reviews for the 6900XT… difficult to say. As a tech… the 6900XT is a lousy graphics card, both in price and relative performance to Nvidia.

notable stock: SLB

Schlumberger was higher with the sector. Soft target is resistance of 28/39s, beyond that… 38/39s.

notable stock: UAL

Whilst the stock is somewhat stuck around the June high… it has been decisively passed AND settled above a few times. The door is open to next major resistance of the $70s.


A fine… if cold (3c/37f) end to the day. Have a good evening.
