Selling emerging markets short ETF EUM out of my Volatility Portfolio
I don't know whether you've been able to hear it over all the other market noise--All the shouting on Brexit, for example--but there is a distinct and increasingly loud call from Wall Street that 2020 is the year to get back into emerging market assets. I don't happen...

Adding Xilinx to my Volatility Portfolio as one last FOMO pick through the end of the year
On November 6 I added chip maker Xilinx (XLNX) to my Volatility Portfolio as one last FOMO pick to go with Skyworks Solutions (SWKS) and Cirrus Logic (CRUS). The stock closed that day at $93.77. It closed essentially unchanged at $93.29 today. My argument for the...
Adding JD.Com to my Volatility Portfolio on strength of Singles’ Day performance and ahead of Friday’s earnings report
Last time I owned Alibaba (BABA) e-commerce competitor JD.Com (JD) I got a 25% short-term pop. I think it's time to go back to that trade again. JD.Com sold $29.17 billion in goods during the recently completed Singles' Day shopping frenzy. That was a new record for...

Special Report: 3 Picks for the Next Wave in Tech Profits
I've recently made two tech picks for the shorter-term. I think that over the next four weeks or so both Cirrus Logic (CRUS) and Skyworks Solutions (SWKS) will beat Apple (AAPL) and an Apple-driven technology sector rally. But what about the longer term for technology...
So how’s my “Tech is back” call (and picks of SWKS and CRUS) doing?
On October 8 I wrote "Tech is back" led by fact-based speculation that Apple (AAPL) had asked supplier to increase production of components for the iPhone 11 by 10%. That, obviously, was a good sign for Apple, which is set to announce earnings on October 30. And, I...
