In this blog post, we will delve into the art of dividend growth investing and how it can be a powerful tool for building wealth, one payout at a time. Understanding Dividend Growth Investing Dividend growth investing involves selecting and holding shares of companies that not only pay dividends but also have a track record of regularly increasing those dividend payments. These companies typically exhibit financial stability, strong cash flows, and a commitment to rewarding shareholders with a share of their profits. The Principles of Dividend Growth Investing Dividend Yield: Dividend yield measures the annual dividend payment as a percentage of the stock's current price. Dividend growth investors often seek companies with reasonable dividend yields, balancing income with growth potential. Dividend Growth Rate: The dividend growth rate measures the annual percentage increase in a company's dividend payments. Investors look for companies with a history of steadily growing dividends, signaling financial health and shareholder-friendly management.

Benefits of Dividend Growth Investing Steady Income Stream: Dividend growth investing provides a reliable income stream for investors, which can be especially beneficial during market downturns. Inflation Hedge: As companies increase their dividends over time, investors can potentially beat inflation and preserve the purchasing power of their income. Potential for Capital Appreciation: Companies that consistently grow their dividends often attract investors, leading to potential capital appreciation in the stock price. Key Strategies for Dividend Growth Investing Research and Analysis: Conduct thorough research on companies' dividend histories, financials, and future growth prospects. Look for companies with sustainable dividend growth potential. Diversification: Diversify your dividend growth portfolio across different sectors and industries to reduce risks associated with individual company performance. Reinvestment: Consider reinvesting dividends back into the same dividend growth stocks or other investments to maximize the compounding effect. Dividend Aristocrats: Explore companies that are part of the "Dividend Aristocrats" or similar lists, which consist of companies with a history of consistently increasing dividends for many years. Conclusion Dividend growth investing is a disciplined approach that rewards patient investors with a growing income stream and potential capital appreciation. By selecting companies with a commitment to increasing dividends over time and holding them for the long haul, investors can build wealth, one payout at a time.

Value InvestingValue Investing - Unearthing Hidden Gems in the Market Introduction In the world of investing, where trends and market sentiments often drive decision-making, value investing stands out as a timeless strategy embraced by legendary investors. Value investing involves searching for undervalued assets that have the potential to deliver substantial returns in the long run. In this blog post, we will delve into the art of value investing and how it allows investors to uncover hidden gems in the market. Understanding Value Investing Value investing is a strategy that seeks to identify assets trading at prices below their intrinsic value. These assets may be temporarily undervalued due to market fluctuations, unfavorable sentiment, or lack of attention from investors. Value investors believe that the market will eventually recognize the true worth of these assets, leading to price appreciation and potential capital gains. The Principles of Value Investing Intrinsic Value Assessment: Value investors analyze the fundamental strengths and weaknesses of a company or asset to estimate its intrinsic value. Fundamental analysis involves evaluating financial statements, earnings, cash flows, and competitive advantages. Margin of Safety: A key principle of value investing is the concept of a margin of safety. Investors aim to buy assets at prices significantly below their calculated intrinsic value to provide a cushion against potential errors in estimation. Patience and Long-Term Perspective: Value investing requires patience and a long-term perspective. It may take time for the market to recognize the undervalued asset's true potential and drive its price higher. Benefits of Value Investing Potential for High Returns: If the market eventually recognizes the true value of an undervalued asset, value investors can reap substantial returns on their investments. Less Susceptible to Market Fluctuations: Value investing tends to be less affected by short-term market trends and sentiments. Investors focus on the underlying fundamentals, which remain relatively stable over time. Contrarian Approach: Value investors often take a contrarian approach, going against prevailing market sentiments. This allows them to find opportunities that others might overlook. Key Strategies for Value Investing Stock Screening: Use stock screening tools to identify companies with low price-to-earnings (P/E) ratios, low price-to-book (P/B) ratios, and strong financials that indicate potential undervaluation. Focus on Dividends: Seek out companies with a history of paying dividends, as this may be a sign of financial stability and value. Avoiding "Value Traps": Be cautious of companies facing structural challenges that may not recover their intrinsic value over time. Conclusion Value investing is a time-tested strategy that has proven successful for legendary investors like Warren Buffett and Benjamin Graham. By focusing on the underlying fundamentals of undervalued assets and exercising patience, value investors can unearth hidden gems in the market and build a portfolio with the potential for significant long-term returns. Embrace the principles of value investing, conduct thorough research, and let your discerning eye lead you to those overlooked opportunities. As you refine your value investing skills, remember that great investment opportunities may sometimes be hidden in plain sight. Happy hunting for hidden gems in the market, and may the strategy of value investing guide you to prosperous investment decisions!

Displacement Technology Watch: $QSWith a lot of attention ahead of its earnings report, NYSE:QS had a volatile reaction to the report yesterday, but it is one of several companies vying for dominance in Solid State Battery technology. Auto parts are a niche sub-industry of Electric Vehicles to pay attention to for both short term and long term. From the weekly chart: The stock is building a bottom after a huge speculative run up after it IPO'd and is now in a basing bottom formation. QuantumScape was on the NASDAQ Private Market before it IPO'd. Plenty of banks underwrote it and many Preferred Clients, aka Giant Buy Side Institutions, invested during its NASDAQ Private Placement. So it had a respectable amount of investment money to start moving forward faster. On the daily chart, we can see NYSE:QS had a pre-earnings run that hit resistance which was followed by profit-taking ahead of the report. Pro traders started the run up out of what looks to be a Dark Pool Buy Zone and smaller funds chased, which is often a precursor to a volatile earnings reaction. The stock has a low Percentage of the Shares Held by Institutions at this time, which is another factor that contributes to heightened volatility, but it's one to watch as the EV landscape expands.

Mastering Emotional DisciplineMastering Emotional Discipline: The Key to Successful Investment Decision-Making Introduction Investing in financial markets can be an emotional rollercoaster. Fear, greed, and euphoria often cloud judgment, leading to impulsive and irrational decisions. One crucial lesson for successful investors is the significance of emotional discipline in investment decision-making. In this blog post, we will delve into the importance of keeping emotions in check and how it can lead to more informed and prudent investment choices. The Impact of Emotions on Investment Decisions Emotions can significantly influence how we perceive and react to market movements and financial news. Some common emotional biases include: Fear of Missing Out (FOMO): Feeling the urge to invest in a rapidly rising asset, driven by the fear of missing out on potential gains. Loss Aversion: Placing more emphasis on avoiding losses than achieving gains, often leading to holding onto losing positions for too long. Overconfidence: Being overly confident in one's investment abilities, leading to excessive risk-taking and overconcentration in high-risk assets. Herding Behavior: Following the crowd and making investment decisions based on the actions of others rather than on individual analysis. The Importance of Emotional Discipline Rational Decision-Making: Emotional discipline allows investors to make rational, well-thought-out decisions based on fundamental analysis and research rather than impulsive reactions. Long-Term Perspective: Emotional discipline helps investors maintain a long-term perspective, enabling them to ride out short-term market volatility and focus on their investment goals. Avoiding Herding Behavior: By staying emotionally disciplined, investors can avoid the pitfalls of herd mentality and make independent decisions based on their own convictions. Risk Management: Emotional discipline is essential for effective risk management. It helps investors set and stick to stop-loss levels and position sizes that align with their risk tolerance. Strategies for Maintaining Emotional Discipline Investment Plan: Develop a well-defined investment plan based on your financial goals, risk tolerance, and time horizon. Stick to the plan, even during turbulent market conditions. Avoid Impulsive Actions: Before making any investment decisions, take a step back, and assess the situation objectively. Avoid impulsive actions driven by emotions. Diversification: A diversified portfolio can reduce the impact of individual asset volatility, reducing emotional stress during market fluctuations. Focus on Fundamentals: Rely on fundamental analysis and research rather than short-term market movements. Solid research provides a more objective basis for investment decisions. Conclusion Emotional discipline is a critical aspect of successful investment decision-making. By recognizing and managing emotional biases, investors can make rational choices aligned with their long-term financial goals. Embrace emotional discipline as your guiding light in the tumultuous world of investing, and let it pave the way to a more confident and rewarding investment journey. Remember, investing is a journey, not a race. Stay patient, stay disciplined, and stay on track to achieve your financial aspirations.

KRE a banking sector ETF for regional banks LONGWhile tracking regional banks KRE had a bad time in the spring with the small and regional bank failures/rescues and the federal actions to buttress the faith of citizens in them. There have been no runs on the banks. Larger banks may be taken some business from small banks saddled with securities with diminished value due to rising interest rates and the effect on the face value of those fixed-rate securities. No matter, things are better now. This is not to say the whole banking sector stress is resolved. Banks have enjoyed great returns on credit cards. The 15-minute chart here shows a good overall uptrend within ascending parallel support and resistance trendlines. Price is presently at the bottom of that parallel channel. The relative trend index signal shows bearish trending today providing confirmation of of a dip which is now available as an entry point. Relative Strength Indicator which compares with the SPY showing persistent strength Overall, I see this as a good entry point for a long-swing trade targeting the top of the channel which I estimate will be about 52 by the end of next week estimating the trade duration to be 5 trading days. My reasonable opinion is that next week's volatility will be far less than this past week and that DPST will do well. I will also take a look at the KRE and KBE ETFs. I like this as a long setup with a 15% potential for a very low risk in a stop loss set $.50 below the channel at 47.84 I have uploaded a similar idea on DPST.

ES SPX Futures - Welcome to FOMCmageddonIn reading the title of this post, I'm sure you can tell what I want to say. Since the new habit is to guffaw and lmao at any thesis that isn't bullish, because "we" all "know" US equities "always go up" and a new all time high is "in store," I'd like to point out the Nasdaq already shows signs of having topped. That July 20, 2023 candle was some 2%+ in range and on absolutely no news. And yet the SPX has not yet taken its equivalent intermediate term high. The significance of the intermediate term highs that the Nasdaq took and the SPX is probably about to take is that they represent the March of 2022 failure swing. Why does it matter? Because that swing and its destruction was the trumpet-backed announcement that the Coronavirus Disease 2019 stimmie QE bull run had come to an end. And so coming back to raid it at a time when Big Jerome Powell openly told reporters at the last FOMC meeting that no rate cuts were scheduled AND that inflation would take years, not months, to come back to levels they regard as apropos, is a very dangerous situation. The thing about tops and bottoms is that whoever calls them is always wrong, because you can only see a top or a bottom on hindsight. In the interim, as they unfold, you can only anticipate that at a certain key price level, over a certain high or a certain low, that reversal patterns might manifest. The geopolitical situation is very sharp. I note in a new call that oil is likely headed for a literal 3 handle this year. Oil - A New Long Leg Down Soon Begins And I note that the US Dollar Index is due for a rally to at least 108. DXY - The US Petrdollar And The "Prigozhin Coup" In Russia The cornerstone of the international chessboard is now, and always has been, Mainland China and its 5,000 year old country and culture, which has been ruined by the Chinese Communist Party over the course of its century of insanity. What's going on in the equities market is heavily wedded to the "War With Taiwan" narrative being espoused by the propaganda machine, which I discuss in my call on Taiwan Semiconductor TSM, a company that I believe is a significant long hedge during a potential upcoming downtrend. TSM - Taiwan, Your Semiconductor Long Hedge So as for this week's call, I would like to note that, unlike the Nasdaq, the SPX has not raided its March '22 intermediate high. This high at 4,631 happens to coincide with the new "JP Morgan Chase Collar," where one of the SIB's big funds sold calls at 4,665. I discuss this collar below: SPX/ES - An Analysis Of The 'JPM Collar' Something to understand about the big banks' business model is this: The first thing is that when they sell calls at a certain level, there is a buyer, and that buyer might be their clients. Their clients may have paid the bank the standard 10% fee in exchange for providing the liquidity. The reason the client would buy calls that JPM sells at a 10% premium is because they understand that the market will be made, in exchange, for those calls to be made worth more than they paid. Those calls were purchased at the end of June when the indexes traded circa 4,400. Why would JPM sell the calls and get themselves underwater? Because by September 29, Q3 end, they won't be underwater anymore, for one. For two, they're hedged long and are making money on the way up on the hedge. So they get to make money on the hedge, the calls ultimately expire worthless, and the client is happy because they got a big bag of cheap options at 4,400 to dump on the head of retail and Cathie Wood-style funds at 4,660. And all of this is to say that the 4,631 failure swing/pivot is very likely to be raided, and it is likely to be raided on Wednesday, FOMC day. During Monday's trade session, we will find out a lot about the intentions of the MMs. I believe they will only raid the 4,544 level on Monday market open, making it a buying opportunity to sell 100 points higher. However, if ES/SPX is to dump significantly to under 4,500 again, it stands to reason that the real target is the 4,800 ATH somewhere early in August. But I think, for a lot of reasons, this is just so less likely. Thus, SPX is likely to raid 4,544, which is to say the 4,550 psychological level, and trade over the 4,650 psychological level before Jerome Powell starts yapping. This FOMC is really significant because there isn't another rate hike until September, the end of Q3. So the trade is to long 4,540, sell it allllll at 4,650, and the target is under where JPM went long on puts and has been under water all month under 4,200 heading into the end of August and middle of September.

GOLD/ XAUUSD/ LONG/BUY🔰 Pair Name : GOLD/ XAUUSD 🔰 Time Frame : HOUR/DAILY 🔰 Scale Type : MID/LONG SCALE 🔰 Direction: LONG/BUY Technical View 📈: Gold has recently broken a significant downtrend, indicating a potential trend reversal. 🔄 Currently, it appears to be undergoing a final retest on the daily supply zone, which has been breached. This suggests that the price may be headed higher to complete the CD leg of a Gartley pattern. 📈 Notably, the price has reached the fib level of 78.6% and is attempting to retest the 61.8% area, approximately around 1973. We expect the price to continue its upward movement after a successful retest in the 1973.9 - 1970 area. 🚀 A key level to monitor closely is the daily supply zone at 1985. If this level is firmly breached to the upside today, it could trigger a significant upward move in the price. 🎯 Fundamental Considerations 📊: Regarding fundamental factors, there have been recent discussions about higher interest rates, which could impact the U.S. dollar's strength and affect gold prices. 💵 However, the recent Federal Reserve rate hike did not lead to major changes, and some market participants believe it may have been somewhat unnecessary. This has created a sense that we may have seen the last rate hike of this cycle, especially as inflation has eased to 3% and rates have reached their highest levels in 22 years. The Fed's stance appears to be less urgent than in previous meetings, leading to cautious optimism in the markets regarding inflation control and a potential path towards lower rates. 🤞 Please note that trading involves risk, and it's essential to conduct thorough analysis and implement proper risk management strategies when making trading decisions based on technical and fundamental factors. ⚠️🛡️ Happy trading! 🚀💰

The Power of PatienceThe Power of Patience: Long-Term Investing Introduction In the fast-paced world of investing, where market volatility and hype can easily sway decisions, there's one timeless lesson that stands the test of time: the power of patience in long-term investing. In this blog post, we will explore the significance of adopting a long-term investment approach and the benefits it offers to investors who embrace patience as their ally in wealth-building. Understanding Long-Term Investing Long-term investing is an investment strategy focused on holding assets for an extended period, typically years or even decades, to capitalize on the power of compounding and ride the wave of the market's long-term growth. Unlike short-term trading, which aims for quick gains, long-term investing takes a patient and steady approach, emphasizing fundamental analysis and faith in the underlying value of assets. The Benefits of Patience in Long-Term Investing Harnessing the Power of Compounding: Patience allows investors to benefit from the magic of compounding, where investment returns generate additional returns over time. Compounding can significantly amplify wealth accumulation, especially when reinvesting dividends and capital gains. Weathering Market Volatility: Financial markets are inherently volatile, with short-term fluctuations driven by various factors, including economic news and geopolitical events. By staying patient and maintaining a long-term perspective, investors can ride out market fluctuations without being swayed by short-term noise. Reducing Transaction Costs: Frequent trading incurs transaction costs, such as brokerage fees and taxes, which can eat into returns. Long-term investors minimize these costs by holding assets for more extended periods, leading to better overall returns. Opportunity to Invest in Growth: Long-term investors have the luxury of being less concerned about short-term market movements. This freedom allows them to invest in growth-oriented assets and industries with the potential for substantial long-term gains. Benefiting from Dividends: Patience pays off when it comes to dividend investing. Many established companies offer regular dividends to shareholders. By holding on to these stocks for the long term, investors can enjoy a consistent income stream. Keys to Successful Long-Term Investing Invest in Strong Fundamentals: Focus on companies with solid financials, strong management teams, and a competitive advantage in their industries. Fundamental analysis provides insights into the long-term viability of potential investments. Diversify Your Portfolio: Diversification is a critical risk management tool. Spread your investments across different asset classes, sectors, and geographies to reduce the impact of individual asset volatility on your portfolio. Avoid Emotional Decision-Making: Emotions can lead to impulsive decisions in the face of market fluctuations. Stay committed to your long-term investment plan and avoid making knee-jerk reactions to short-term market movements. Regular Portfolio Review: While long-term investing involves holding assets for years, it's essential to periodically review your portfolio's performance and reassess your investment thesis. Conclusion Long-term investing with patience as its cornerstone is a time-tested strategy that has proven successful for countless investors over the years. By embracing the power of compounding, weathering market volatility, and staying committed to sound investment principles, patient investors have the potential to build substantial wealth and achieve their financial goals. So, take a deep breath, adopt a long-term perspective, and let the power of patience work its magic on your investment journey. Happy investing!

The likelihood of a recession in the US is declining. Goldman Sachs sees a decline in the likelihood of a recession in the US over the next year from 25% to 20% thanks to encouraging economic data: improving consumer sentiment and slowing inflation, writes Business Insider. The bank expects only one and the last rate hike by the Fed and is quite optimistic about a "soft landing" for the US economy. The Fed's sharp rate hike for more than a year has raised fears of a "hard landing" as the economy slumps as it fights to bring inflation down to its 2% target. However, according to the latest data, consumer inflation in the US has already reached 3%, down from 9% a year ago. At the same time, fundamental signals point to further disinflation: “Used car prices are falling on the back of rising car production and inventories, and rent inflation still has a long way to go before it catches up with the median asking rent, while the labor market continues to recover from continuing downward trend in vacancies, layoffs, labor shortages and rising nominal wages.”

$MNDY Setting up below a major pivot. MNDY looks healthy and is possibly setting up. The setup: 52-week high breakout above $187 pivot Late Jan, it came above the 200dsma and rode the 21-day ema for about a 25%-30% move then started to drifted back in undercutting the 200dsma for four days in early May. This four day undercut traded on above average daily volume without further progress to the downside, this can be interpreted as supporting action. A week later the stock gapped up on 5/15 due to earnings announcement and put in an HV1 (highest volume traded in 1 year). It hasn't closed the gap and found support at the 50dsma. Relative strength is also lifting nicely. $187 is a significant pivot when viewed on a higher time frame (look at the weekly). Breakout traders might consider this actionable above $187, especially if it's followed by volume. Risks: There is clear overhead supply from 2021. (obstacle to become a ML) The company has negative earnings Revenue growth is decelerating A breakout might result in a nice 10%+ opportunity with decent risk management below the recent multiday tight consolidation around $174 (~7%). A pullback and hold of the breakout would be confirmation of a stage 2 uptrend.

US budget.From the report on the execution of the US budget published on Thursday, July 13, it follows that in June its expenses rose nearly $100bn on a basis yoy (+15% yoy) to $646bn, while revenues from tax revenues decreased by 9.2% yoy to $418 billion. Against this background, the rolling 12-month the value of tax revenues to the US budget decreased by 7.3%, which was a record value since June 2020, when the country plunged into covid lockdowns. Thus, the US budget deficit in June rose to $228 billion from $89 billion a year earlier. Economists' consensus forecast suggested that the figure would be "only" $175 billion. For the nine months of the current fiscal year, the cumulative budget deficit of the United States was $ 1,393 trillion, which is the third record value in history (this figure was higher only in fiscal 2020 and 2021) The sharp increase in interest payments on the US government debt also inspires significant concern. According to the St. Louis Fed, in the first quarter of calendar year 2023, this figure was $928.93 billion in annual terms. After 12 months, due to the effect of higher interest interest rates on US government debt could reach $1.3 trillion in annual terms. In this case, interest payments on public debt will become the largest item of US spending, ahead of social insurance. All this creates a vicious circle, the way out of which is not obvious: the rise in the US budget deficit increases the need for new and larger borrowings. This, in turn, provokes an increase in market interest rates (investors require a higher risk premium), which in turn raises the risk of a recession. And this, not to mention the prospects for a long-term destabilization of the dollar and, as a result, the global financial system. Sources.

Most interestingly, retail investors did not show active interest according to sources US retail investors were selling US tech stocks. And even more interesting is that, based on the analysis of historical data, experts draw the following conclusion - the lack of interest of retail investors in new developments is a good sign.
