Tech Stocks On a Run; ETFs To Buy 'IF' you Think It Will Soon Come to An End

The Bears have been referring to the current situation with technology stocks as the building up of the next dot com collapse. Price to earnings ratios are high, earnings expectation may be overinflated, and the unknown that surrounds all aspects of the current political landscape and how that could affect businesses are all reasons to be doubtful that technology stocks can continue on their massive run.

One analyst believes you should buy any of the technology stocks that garner a large portion of their revenue from advertisements. The analysts noted that companies like Facebook (NYSE:FB) and Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG) are likely to experience a revenue slowdown in the future because, at the end of the day, there is only so much money that can be thrown at web-based advertising.

Others think Amazon.com (NASDAQ:AMZN) may be getting too big and trying to do too much, and it could end up destroying itself. Sounds similar to what the bears say about Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA).

At the end of the day, a negative case can be made about every single technology stock. If you agree with those cases and you want to start looking for some opportunities to make money when technology stocks start falling, then let's take a look at some or your options I have outlined below.

Weekly Futures Recap With Mike Seery

Posted on by The INO.com Team

We've asked Michael Seery of SEERYFUTURES.COM to give our INO readers a weekly recap of the Futures market. He has been Senior Analyst for close to 15 years and has extensive knowledge of all of the commodity and option markets.

Michael frequently appears on multiple business networks including Bloomberg news, Fox Business, CNBC Worldwide, CNN Business, and Bloomberg TV. He is also a guest on First Business, which is a national and internationally syndicated business show.

U.S. Dollar Futures

The U.S. dollar in the September contract settled last Friday at 94.93 while currently trading at 93.77 down about 115 points for the trading week continuing its bearish momentum hitting and 11 month low. I'm currently not involved in this market, but I do think prices are heading out towards the 90/92 level in the coming weeks as the bearish momentum is getting stronger on a weekly basis. The Dollar index traded as high as 102 in the month of March as low-interest rates in the United States continues to push this market lower. If you are short a futures contract place the stop loss above the 10-day high which stands at 95.96 as the chart structure will start to improve in next week's trade, therefore, lowering the monetary risk. The currency market is one of the trendiest markets as picking a bottom, or a top is extremely dangerous as some of these trends can last for long periods of time just like this one has in 2017. I'm certainly not recommending any type of bullish position that would be very dangerous as this market is trading far under its 20 and 100-day moving average telling you that this trend is the downside so if you are short stay short as you're on the right side in my opinion.
TREND: LOWER
CHART STRUCTURE: IMPROVING

Market Ends On A Weak Note

Posted on by The INO.com Team

Hello traders everywhere. The indexes are ending the week on a soft note after reaching records highs earlier in the week. This is primarily due to General Electric Company (NYSE:GE) falling more than 4% to a 19-month low.

Meanwhile, the euro climbed to its strongest level against the dollar since January of 2015 after ECB President Mario Draghi said that the ECB would discuss plans to unwind quantitative easing this fall.

More To Come For This Cannabis Lighting Company?

Analysis originally distributed on July 13, 2017 By: Michael Vodicka of Cannabis Stock Trades

There are millions of square feet of cannabis cultivation facilities being built all across North America.

Take Americann (OTC:ACAN) for example. Americann is a U.S. based cannabis company headquartered in Massachusetts. Americann is in the early stages of building a 1 million square foot cultivation facility in Mass that will potentially serve as the primary cultivation hub to supply a huge portion of the Eastern cannabis market.

Cronos Group (CDNX:MJN.V) is another good example. Cronos is a Canadian cannabis company headquartered in Toronto. In May, Cronos announced that one of the companies it owns, Peace, had broke ground on a 315,000 square foot cultivation facility.

This project will include a 286,000 square foot production facility, a 28,000 square foot greenhouse, and a 1,200 square foot extraction laboratory.

When finished, this facility is expected to be one of the largest indoor cannabis production facility in the world.

As you can see, cannabis companies are in the process of hugely ramping up their cultivation capacities to meet the tidal wave of demand for cannabis coming down the pike.

One way to profit is to simply invest in the companies building these cultivation facilities. That could turn out to be extremely profitable.

However, I have an even better way to potentially profit. Continue reading "More To Come For This Cannabis Lighting Company?" →
