🟨 STEM Update - CAUTIONUpdate on the current environment - Orange The market has never gotten into an easy dollar environment according to the STEM model! Do not judge the market hostility based on what indexes are doing - this is simply WRONG, if you follow the Breakout methodology taught by Mark Minervini, William O'Neil, CANSLIM investors, Gil Morales and the likes. Currently, the market is 🟨 Orange this means selective or highly rotational, signalling a need for caution. Performance Indicator 💼 Instead look at you own performance of last 5 trades and level of stress are good indicators of the current trading environment. In an "easy dollar" market, stocks move up easily and profits come without much stress. However, over the past year, protecting profits has become increasingly important. Here are some additional notes I have written earlier that would help you understand the methodology better: 22MAR23: For traders, it is crucial to manage risk diligently in this environment, as it can become a trap of 'death by a thousand cuts. 26JAN23: The times when the general market is directionless (like now) and the individual names are breaking out - is the first sign that we will likely tranition to an easy dollar environment - this is why we want to gauge how is the watchlist doing. 28DEC22: Yesterday, we had some coal names that tried to move and I was close to alerting them but as I was expecting they reversed and closed near lows. While in a good market this is not a problem, we are not seeing any evidence that we have moved away from the 'hard penny' environment.

The Future of Food (Wholesale Foods)The Future of Food (Wholesale Foods) is very important on Earth! The price of food today is about 7 to 10x what it use to be in the middle of this past 20th century (1972ish). Just before the the beginning of the 1990's there was a sudden "wholesale foods" boom. The value of "wholesale" food companies like Costco doubled after one time around the sun and then went up by nearly 20x value in the early 1990's and then value of "wholesale" foods suddenly dropped? After an almost complete collapse of the "wholesale" foods industry in the early 1990's was perhaps the most important time in the history of "modern food" on earth. Its likely that food prices need to go up because grocery stores are making so little money.. Many people are use to walking into a grocery store and seeing it full of food. I was really surprised that a certain large grocery store made almost $200,000 dollars per employee per year. Grocery Store profit (however) are less then say 5% in actual profit and sometimes as little as 2%. Many grocery stores are billion dollar and certainly million dollar businesses. When you think about it the food economy should be and is a multi trillion dollar a year industry. When "wholesale" foods started going up in the mid 2000's they went up about 1000% times and then 2000% up!? Today the value of the stock is about 12200%+ more than the value that "wholesale" started at in the 1980s. If you study very very carefully the entire history of "wholesale" foods, the "first" ideas of "wholesale foods" was not accepted. "wholesale foods" had one full year of problems before it started. These early problems with "wholesale" foods are (clearly visible on the exponential graphs in the late 1980's) Its likely that our actual virus and health problems are actually cased by buying and selling "strange foods" particularly in Wuhan China and perhaps even a larger problem in Indo China and Costal Asia and Pacific Islands. Its likely that the problem we are seeing is with “wholesale foods” globally. The problem is not just with the "sick animals" its "water pollution" along the Yangtze River which is one of the most important fresh water rivers on Earth and the central river in China. For several decades NASA imagery of China and India and Thailand has shown so much air pollution in these areas that its viable on live “NASA Worldview” Imagery every day for years and years. In many places around the world you cant even see the ground from a satellite image because there is so much air pollution. The foods market in Asia and in Wuhan was actually called the Huanan SEAFOOD WHOLESALE Market. Although the COVID-19 Coronavirus is a “respiratory” virus the market actually had a lot of “seafoods” and was also a “wholesale” “fast foods” market place. It maybe that one of the key problems is actually a "wholesale" foods marketplaces problem? Environmental problems are perhaps the key to understanding modern economic collapse. Hope this helps you! Asher!
