ETF Picks

 10/21/2026 Wed

 

A few days back I suggested that many stocks had sold off to the buy point, Here is an update

XLF financials looks good but will it outlasts a return to higher interest rates

XLB materials looks good

XPH Pharmaceuticals looks the best of the bunch as it is just now generating buy signal

 XLRE real estate, again will it outlast an increase in interest rates

HAL Halliburton Energy service looks good but  new says oil shipments are at pre war levels thru Hormuz, but industry observers doubt that, I do too, still a solid company with oil at $100

 DOW -a PAR SAR buy signal and above all three moving averages, RSI and PMO turning positive

Given the uncertainty of the mid-terms or maybe there is no uncertainty

the above chart speaks for itself, the market is buying the DOW 

 

Social Mood - politics 

i live in a Republican voting neighborhood but Talarico DEM signs are sprouting  and I have only seen one Paxton REP sign in the entire neighborhood

Dems promise to impeach Hegseth, this looks like a repeat of 1973with Hegseth as Nixon, back then the media was all negative on Nixon as they have been on Trump but Hedseth is next

Trump cut loose his new press secretary after five days and his Greek ambassador after what,  a year, so will he hold on to Hegseth in the face of investigations or dig in, we shall see

This is not a political blog but massive negative investigations will not bode well for the market, it did not in 1973.

 TLT long dated bonds has run into resistance but also gapped up a few days ago, a hold for now

More tomorrow
