Investment Outlook & Strategy
Do Not Chase the Gainers
Look for Oversold Opportunities
The Skeleton Fade Dilemma
Strategy for the Coming Week
- Sell into strength: If you own any of the gainers, sell them. The pumps will not last.
- Buy into weakness: Consider small positions in the souvenir losers. They are at extreme lows.
- Avoid sticker speculation: Unless you have insider information on player retirements, stay away from gold stickers.
- Monitor the Skeleton Fade: It is the canary in the coal mine for high-tier liquidity. If it recovers, the market is healthy. If it drops further, expect more pain.
