July 28th 2017 Pro Pre market Prep



Good morning
I mentioned in last week stocks to watch video that we were overbought in several sectors heading into a big earnings weak and that this could be a week where not matter how good earnings came in we could see the start of some type of pull back. Earnings have been very strong but it seems as though a lot of stocks have already priced them in. Yesterday we saw some weakness and volatility started to pick up. We have the lowest levels of volatility since 1929 and that is probably not a good thing. I am not suggesting we are going to have a crash like we did back then but it wouldn't be a stretch to see some sort of correction. We have a lot of earnings ahead of us so there will still be individual winners and losers regardless of what the overall market is doing. With health care floundering and a Washington that appears as though it can't get anything done we are likely going to see a lot of speculation that tax reform is headed down the same path as health care. If we don't get tax reform that will ultimately put a strain on the markets in my opinion. Lets see how we close out the week but there are some warning flags out there so its important to make sure you have a clearly defined plan for your portfolio and your individual trades.

Equities are gapping down in premarket after the GDP report with the dollar showing some weakness while gold and oil are getting a little bounce.

Keep an eye on UVXY TVIX LABD TZA for day trade opportunities if the market weakness accelerates.
Do not chase anything and know your risk reward.
