The market uptrend had a problem. We couldn’t get a real breakout. Momentum kept failing. And then on Monday evening, Sami pointed out that IWM could signal a decline if it broke $264.70. Which it did on the open Monday morning: Sami goes over: How he knew IWM $264.70 could give us trouble Why he predicted a pullback this week The big biotech name that looks perfect for a long-term rally A lithium play could could be the next hot metals name A nuclear play that could ignite on a breakout Multiple names that are going climactic, meaning we could see huge reversals 5 names that look ready to drop, including a controversial EV stock
Continue Reading -->Heavy Metal Traders Are Getting Rich
Congratulations. You survived the first half of January. So it’s time for the 5 charts you need to see. Though there’s more than 5 this week: Heavy Metal Traders Are Getting Rich Metals won in 2025, and they’re winning again this year. But while everyone’s obsessed with the #silversqueeze, there is another dominant metal in 2026: uranium. The Global X Uranium ETF (URA) is now up 26.5% this month, edging out the iShares Silver Trust (SLV). The AI industry is driving demand for more nuclear power. And nuclear power providers need a lot more uranium, which is in short supply. Bank of America said uranium prices could rise by 50% by 2027, and named Cameco (CCJ) its number one pick. It’s been on fire this year: But uranium and silver are not the only metals winners. Copper, platinum, palladium, and lithium are all in uptrends. So this the year of heavy metal! Full disclosure: CCJ is one of my biggest personal equity holdings. But let’s talk about my biggest position, which isn’t doing as well as CCJ: Apple = Crapple Every time it looks like it’s waking up, Apple (AAPL) goes back to sleep. Look at this mess: Do you need indicators or squiggly lines to see how ugly this is? Now, I’m not selling my Apple because the company’s got two huge things going for it: Android is, um, not very cool The products all just work together It’s a good thing earnings are in two weeks, because we need resolution here. Either a screaming rally back to the highs, or a final death blow. This slow bleed is too painful to endure. If it’s gonna go down, let’s just get it over with! Small Caps Go on a Wild Ride We’ve been hearing about a small cap comeback for years. But it may be happening. The Russell 2000 is up over 8% in January while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 are up less than 2%. And there are tons of individual winners. ‘ As of Friday afternoon, 205 stocks in the Russell 2000 are up more than 20% this month. And 32 are up more than 50%. We can’t necessarily attribute this to lower rates because the Fed direction isn’t quite clear. So it looks like a combination of speculative juices and catch-up. Investors Are Getting Very Bullish The crowd is getting very bullish after a big rally from the December lows. According to the AAII Sentiment Survey, 49.5% investors are bullish: This is the highest bullish reading since November 14, 2024, which was right after President Trump’s election victory, which drove a massive surge in stocks. Interestingly, it seems that survey respondents are not concerned about all the chaos in the world, between Venezuela, Iran, the President going after Powell, uncertainty on the economy, etc. Or perhaps everyone’s just gotten used to chaos by now. Just keep in mind that timing the market using sentiment indicators is notoriously difficult. Happy times can last. Micron Earnings Estimates Are Insane Micron (MU) is up 249% over the past year, and if you want to know why, look at the power of a memory shortage. Earnings estimates have gone parabolic, as you can see in this chart. This is crazier than what we saw with Nvidia 3 years ago. In the past 12 months, FY2026 EPS estimates have gone from $11.24 to $32.67. Everybody from Nvidia (NVDA) to AMD (AMD) to Alphabet (GOOGL) is desperate for memory and prices are going through the roof. Crazy stuff.

Continue Reading -->5 Charts You Need to See: Nvidia the Value Stock?
We just closed out the first full trading week of the year, featuring new all-time highs, a crappy jobs report, and the Supreme Court failing to render a decision on President Trump’s tariffs. But we’re here with the 5 charts you need to see right now, covering Uranium, Nvidia (NVDA), and MORE! 1. Uranium Is Shocking the World… Again The Global X Uranium ETF (URA) is now up 18% YTD vs. +1.4% for $SPY. That’s after URA surged 67% last year. The latest catalyst was Meta (META) signing nuclear power deals with Vistra (VST) and Oklo (OKLO), plus the Bill Gates-backed TerraPower. This is a fascinating point in the AI cycle. Because it’s uncertain how long Nvidia (NVDA) can dominate chip performance. But it seems 100% certain that AI is sucking up a lot of electricity. And insider the uranium mining complex specifically, there is just not a lot of supply in terms of stocks to buy. Look at the market caps of the better-known uranium companies: Cameco (CCJ): $46 billion Uranium Energy (UEC): $7.1 billion Energy Fuels (UUUU): $4.3 billion Denison Mining (DNN): $2.9 billion And the URA ETF itself has just $6.3 billion in assets. 2. Nvidia: Value Stock? Traders and investors are increasingly focused on the skyrocketing “second-order” AI stocks in areas like nuclear power and memory. Former AI Kingpin Nvidia (NVDA) feels left behind to the point where it looks like a value stock, even though its earnings winning streak shows no sign of slowing. It’s trading at just 26.6 times forward earnings. Meanwhile, Costco (COST) trades at 45 times earnings. Meanwhile, Nvidia is expected to grow earnings by 57% this year. For Costco, it’s 11%. 3. Apple’s Big Oversold Signal Apple (AAPL) is the second most oversold stock in the Nasdaq 100/QQQ, based on RSI: That reading is nearing the April 2025 lows after the Liberation Day selloff. Traders are worried about a myriad of issues including a China slowdown, skyrocketing memory costs, and Tim Cook possibly slowing down. There’s always chatter about the company being behind in AI… but how many people are dropping Apple devices over that? I mean, I can use ChatGPT and Gemini and Grok and whatever else on my iPhone. Right? With the stock this oversold and the chatter so negative, perhaps it’s time for a bounce. And the one QQQ stock more oversold than Apple (AAPL)? It’s Netflix (NFLX), which has been beaten down because of the Warner Brothers acquisition drama. 4. PayPal Is Sitting on Major Support PayPay (PYPL) can be one of the most frustrating stocks in the market. It operates in two modes: High-speed uptrend Value trap disaster And now it’s sitting on major support around $57, which is above the 2023 low around $50. Could there be $7 of risk down, and $30 up? At less than 11 times forward earnings, this is one stock we have to watch. 5. OIH Is the ETF to Watch Following President Trump’s presumed takeover of the Venezuela oil industry, the VanEck Oil Services ETF (OIH) is the ETF to watch. Because the companies in the OIH make the equipment and technology that gets oil out of the ground. And you have to think these companies are about to land some big fat contracts. On Monday, OIH made the “Gap of the Year” on the Venezuela news. And that gap held:

On December 30, we shared David Prince’s 2026 Trading Strategy. In that outlook, David made predictions about several names and sectors for this year – and many of his expectations are already coming to fruition. So let’s review 5 of those calls and how they’ve panned out so far just one full trading week into the New Year. 1. Rocket Blasts Off David Prince named Rocket Companies (RKT) his “favorite rates play”. He said the stock is a “must-own long-term and expect it to be above $30 by year-end.” And President Trump provided a gift for the sector on Thursday, January 8. In a Truth Social post, Trump said he was instructing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to buy $200 billion worth of mortgage bonds to lower rates. And that sent RKT flying: The stock is up 20% YTD with over 10% of that move happening just on Friday. David has previously called this company a “one-stop shop” for every step in the home buying or selling process. 2. Flying Taxis in Vogue David predicted 2026 will be the year we start to see real progress in the eVTOL AKA “Flying Taxis” space. He picked Joby Aviation (JOBY), Vertical Aerospace (EVTL), and Archer Aviation (ACHR) as his “favorite names in the group”. So how have those names performed so far this year? Take a look: Since December 31, EVTL is up 24.3%, JOBY is up 17.9%, and ACHR is up 17.2%. These names have far outperformed the broader tech sector with QQQ up just 2.1% in the same timeframe. And David even gave us a tip for the future in this space, saying he will be a buyer of Anduril when it goes public and he plans “to hold it for a decade”. 3. Tesla Offers a Better Entry In his note, David said about Tesla (TSLA), “there should be a better entry in 2026.” And in the first week of the year, Tesla did exactly what David was looking for. The stock closed at $449.72 on December 31 and then pulled back to hit a low of $438.37 on January 7: That set up the stock for an 11+ point bounce in two days and David himself was buying on the pullback. For the long-term, he still sees some challenges ahead for this name. In his note, David said, “Tesla is really a bet on Elon and the narratives, not the P/E or car demand. Unless we see more progress in Optimus & FSD, I’d expect it to see $400 again.” 4. Immunome is Just Getting Started Immunome (IMNM) was a huge winner for David and the Inner Circle VTF® in 2025. And in his end of year note, he told us it was just getting started. The name gave traders a buying opportunity to kickoff the year, pulling back to a low of $19.33 on January 5: From there, IMNM rallied 13.8% to hit a high of $22.01 on January 9. David believes in the future of this company, predicting a “40-50% gain in 2026”. 5. Cannabis Provides Opportunity David called out the Cannabis sector as one where he sees strong upside this year “with a more industry-friendly President”. The ticker he focuses on for this trade is the AdvisorShares Pure US Cannabis ETF (MSOS) Here’s what that trade has looked like so far this year: MSOS bottomed at $4.45 on January 6 before rallying to a high of $4.81 on January 8. That’s an 8.1% move in 2 sessions. David says he sees “50% upside in MSOS on the low end” in 2026. How will the rest of his picks for 2026 pan out? We’ll have to wait and see.

Continue Reading -->All Hail the AI King
It’s 2026. So let’s dig into the hot stories we’re watching for the New Year. 1. All Hail the AI King Two weeks ago, I declared memory giant Micron (MU) “the new AI champion” courtesy of its shocking guidance. It’s up almost 20% since then with a big fat gain to start 2026. And of course, I don’t own it. Micron wasn’t the only winner on the memory/storage side of the AI trade today. Sandisk (SNDK), Western Digital (WDC), and Lam Research (LRCX), all big winners last year, also posted huge gains today. Now let’s talk about the the other secondary AI trade. 2. Uranium Is Going Wild, and Nobody’s In It The Global X Uranium ETF (URA) had a monster gain in 2025, and rose over 7% today. The bull market case here is very simple. The world is becoming more nuclear friendly, and AI is driving record demand for electricity. And you can’t have nuclear power without uranium. But the most interesting thing about uranium is how little money appears to be invested in it. The #1 company in the industry, Cameco (CCJ), has a market cap of just $42.9 billion. The URA ETF has just $5.3 billion in assets. And the Sprott Uranium Miners ETF (URNM) has $1.7 billion in assets. For comparison, the VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH) has $37.3 billion in assets. 3. You People Love Tesla We recently surveyed the T3 Live community and asked what your favorite stock was. The #1 name across the board was Tesla (TSLA), which had a stinky day after reporting weak delivery numbers. Alphabet (GOOGL) was in second place, but it wasn’t even close. We also asked traders which IPO they were most excited about: OpenAI, SpaceX, or Anthropic. Elon Musk’s SpaceX was the overwhelming favorite at 65.8%. OpenAI was in second at 27.6%. Just 3.9% chose Anthropic. So the Cult of Elon is not going anywhere. And you can count me in that camp because I’m still long Tesla. 4. Traders and Investors Are Bullish Traders are investors to start the New Year. In our own survey, 82.9% of respondents said the S&P 500 will rise in 2026. And AAII’s Sentiment Survey showed that 42.0% of investors are bullish on stocks for the next 6 months: This was the fourth bullish reading in the past 5 weeks. 5. If You Believe in Crypto Miracles… Look at This As we told you two weeks ago, short interest on crypto-related equities like Strategy (MSTR) and Bitmine Immersion Technology (BMNR) is sky-high. All of these names put in big gains today, with Bitmine leading the way. If you are bullish on crypto, you better put these names on the radar because we will see some wild short squeezes. 6. XLE Has Been Waking Up If you watch the energy sector long enough, you’re at risk of falling asleep. But… it’s getting less boring. As you can see in this weekly chart, XLE has been in a slow-motion uptrend since April and it’s about to bang up against resistance around $47: Keep an eye on it. This could be the next big sector to run. 7. Earnings Expectations Are High According to FactSet, Q4 earnings estimates rose 0.4% throughout last quarter. That bucks the typical pattern of estimates declining by 1.6%. Analysts now expect 13.1% earnings growth in Q1. The tech sector has seen the largest increase in estimates, which is no surprise because the big boys like Nvidia (NVDA) and Amazon (AMZN) have dropped one beat after another. So the bar is higher than we’ve seen in recent quarters. And the higher the bar, the harder it is to get those big beats. 8.
