The week ahead could well bring even less volatility and even more complacency as we move into what everyone expects to be a stellar earnings season–at least in comparison to the first quarter of 2020

Today, March 15, shares of Marvell Technology Group (MRVL) closed at $48.08, slightly above my target price of $48 a share. In this very volatile market for technology stocks, I’m going to take my almost 20% profit (19.90% to be exact) and sell these shares out of my Jubak Picks Portfolio tomorrow, March 16. The profit came in less than two weeks from my March 6 buy.

In the last few days the yield on the 10-year Treasury note has tumbled from 1.6% on Monday, March 8, to 1.54% on Tuesday to 1.52% today. That’s brought a breather selling that had, by Monday, pushed the NASDAQ Composite index into a correction of around 11% from its February 12 high. Yesterday and today, the market is as relatively calm place. Cyclicals, vaccine recovery stocks, and “value” stocks are outpacing the technology sector and the BIG tech stocks like Apple (AAPL) and Amazon (AMZN) that had paced the move up to the February 12 high aren’t showing up on the leader board. But still–the Dow Jones Industrial Average may be outpacing the NASDAQ Composite today (up 1.57% to 0.31%) but both indexes are in the black. But don’t relax quite yet. I expect volatility will return.

As of today, November 3 at 12:30 p.m., I don't know who will win the Presidential election. I don't know if the rally in the stock market today, with the Standard & Poor's 500 up 2.02% at 12:30 p.m. New York time, is a vote for some specific outcome, or (more...

Readers of JubakAM.Com in comments to a number of my posts recently have been kicking around the question of whether the huge increase in passive investing strategies has changed volatility in the stock market. Passive investment strategies such as indexing now make...

Yikes. Does this market have enough volatility for you? And I think that volatility will only get worse over the next two to six months, I can't remember a market with so much potential to move up or down in big relatively short-term volatility as this one. Just as...

Today looks like a strong rally but I've got my doubts. At the close the Standard & Poor's 500 was up 1.60%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was ahead 1.34%. The technology laden NASDAQ Composite was higher by 2.26%. The NASDAQ 100, dominated by the technology...
