Is the company re-inventing itself as one of the premier players in the AI server business? But there are headwinds that have the analyst community concerned about a moderate pullback in AI infrastructure spend by corporate management teams. Let's examine the weekly Relative Rotation Graph of 3 key hardware stocks Apple (AAPL), Super Micro Computer (SMCI), and Dell (DELL). Turning to the technical price chart of Dell, we see this chart falling into an triangle consolidation pattern, which according to the Elliott Wave principle has 5 swings of lower-highs and higher-lows. BEFORE MAKING ANY FINANCIAL DECISIONS, YOU SHOULD STRONGLY CONSIDER SEEKING ADVICE FROM YOUR OWN FINANCIAL OR INVESTMENT ADVISOR.

☆ Tesla shares have taken a beating this year. Here's where they could find support, charts show
▼ + stars: | 2024-04-23 | by ( Todd Gordon | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Tesla recently made new yearly lows with no apparent support level in sight until another 30% lower at the early 2023 bottom of $101.81. We're heading into Q1 earnings this evening plagued with a plethora of negative news headlines clouding this stock. Tesla shareholders, me included, are coming to the realization that consumer appetite for electric vehicles combined with increased competition are significant headwinds for the stock. All that being said, the phrase "it's always darkest before the dawn" usually applies to beaten-down fundamental stories that are approaching technical support. BEFORE MAKING ANY FINANCIAL DECISIONS, YOU SHOULD STRONGLY CONSIDER SEEKING ADVICE FROM YOUR OWN FINANCIAL OR INVESTMENT ADVISOR.

☆ Another way to play the commodity breakout with a copper stock forming a 'bull flag' chart pattern
▼ + stars: | 2024-04-19 | by ( Todd Gordon | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

If you look at the other metals like copper and steel and their associated stocks you'll see breakouts as well, and in fact, they are showing more strength than gold stocks. Looking at a chart of copper we'll see a clear breakout above the early 2023 high of $4.35 with the 2022 highs of $5.00 targeted. Fundamentally speaking copper is an industrial metal heavily needed in China and India for infrastructure, transportation, and the green energy buildout. 'Bull flag' pattern The way I'm expressing this bullish thesis in copper is through my holdings in Southern Copper Corp (SCCO) in the dividend portfolio at Inside Edge Capital. That's not exactly cheap, but with the forecasted global demand of copper we think that multiple is justified.

☆ Nvidia is a buy on the pullback and headed toward a $1,150 target, according to chart analyst
▼ + stars: | 2024-04-12 | by ( Todd Gordon | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

A flagship stock like Nvidia (NVDA) takes a month-long breather and many investors want to throw in the towel on the uptrend and say enough is enough. The last time we spoke about NVDA was on Feb 21st just before the earnings report, while I was on a ski vacation. Turning down to the 195-minute chart (that is a half-day chart), we can fine tune our entry on this idea. I added a one-half position size to our short-term Active Opportunities portfolio with stops just below the $832 low.

☆ S&P 500 chart analysis shows pullback is likely and investors should hedge
▼ + stars: | 2024-04-02 | by ( Todd Gordon | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

The S & P 500 is under pressure in the first few trading sessions of the second quarter as economic data continues to be strong and inflationary pressures remain elevated. The stock market rally has been nothing short of amazing reflecting the strong underlying economy and strong earnings companies reported in Q1. Fibonacci levels to watch In 2022, the S & P 500 dropped 1,327 points, or 27.5%. The market gathered itself, broke to new highs, and is now testing the next key Fibonacci extension level of 127.2% at S & P 5259. If however this resistance zone does not reverse price, then the next extension level we'll be targeting is the 1.618% at 5880.

☆ This chip stock is mounting another attempt at a breakout, according to the charts
▼ + stars: | 2024-03-26 | by ( Todd Gordon | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Arm Holdings is a UK-based semiconductor and software design company that has been around for quite some time and been through multiple corporate events, changes of ownership and multiple large investors. The majority shareholder of Arm (ARM) is Japanese conglomerate Softbank, which bought the company in 2016 before taking it public again on the Nasdaq in 2023. The stock formed a base into March, held $120-area support and is now mounting another attack after breaking the gray dotted downtrend resistance/trigger level at $135. I do not yet hold the stock, but I am looking to add to our holdings at current levels and will require the stock to remain above that $135 breakout level now serving as support. BEFORE MAKING ANY FINANCIAL DECISIONS, YOU SHOULD STRONGLY CONSIDER SEEKING ADVICE FROM YOUR OWN FINANCIAL OR INVESTMENT ADVISOR.

☆ An even better way to play a potential small-cap stock breakout, according to the charts
▼ + stars: | 2024-03-23 | by ( Todd Gordon | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +5 min

Is the breakout from resistance likely and should you consider allocating exposure to this basket of 2000 small capitalization stocks? I think the breakout should occur, but I don't think we should increase exposure to the Russell 2000 for two reasons. Ideally the rotation was going to carry through into the upper-right green quadrant indicating confirmed outperformance relative to the S & P 500. I'm not saying we shun small caps all together and continue to focus on the large caps. We need to focus on fundamentally sound small cap companies and we can do so through the Pacer US Small Cap Cash Cows 100 ETF (CALF) .

On the way back we stopped at Shake Shack in the Denver airport and the consensus was 8 out of 10. On Feb 15, SHAK reported earnings and revenue ahead of expectation.

☆ The Nvidia trade looks crowded ahead of the chipmaker's earnings report, according to the charts

Nvidia has been awarded the flagship status of companies leading the artificial intelligence revolution, and all eyes turn to fourth-quarter earnings after the bell Wednesday. The expectations are massive compared to the same quarter last year — and even compared to last quarter's earnings. The massive gains in price reflect this historic growth and the question is will the chart continue its rally following earnings? On Jan. 9 , I wrote about NVDA breaking through the 2023 resistance zone of $500 with targets of $650 in the first half of this year, and $775 in all of 2024. Expectations are for earnings of $4.59 per share vs 88 cents in Q4 of '23 and $4.02 in Q3 of '24.

☆ Amazon shares are running into stiff resistance ahead of earnings, according to the charts
▼ + stars: | 2024-01-30 | by ( Todd Gordon | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

Amazon (AMZN) is set to report earnings this Thursday after the bell with the stock on a roll and expectations high. However, there are signs that the impressive run may be headed for overhead resistance, according to the charts. Further, there are signs within the consumer discretionary sector that recent underperformance compared to the rest of the 'growth trade' may persist. The consumer discretionary space has been showing signs of weakness relative to the other growth/offensive sectors like technology and communications that continue to power ahead. If so, the sub-mega cap companies in consumer discretionary may have their work cut out for them.

☆ It could be time for investors to take some profits on Netflix after earnings, according to the charts
▼ + stars: | 2024-01-23 | by ( Todd Gordon | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +6 min

Netflix has recently been crowned the unofficial king of streaming services and it's scheduled to report earnings this evening. The earnings report could be another good one, but the stock technicals are flashing some warning signs for long-term investors. From a fundamental standpoint, NFLX has been anointed 'the one' in the streaming space after delivering on multiple initiatives. Combined that with such strong projected growth rates creating a stretched forward valuation making investors even more cautious. At the current price of $486.50 and an expectation of $15.94 in earnings, that puts NFLX at 30.50 times 2024 earnings.

☆ Rallying AMD is approaching key levels. What's next for the stock, according to chart analysts

Some closely watched momentum indicators and a bullish overall chart suggest popular AI chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices is headed for new highs in the near future. The stock hit a new 52-week high and now sits 3.6% below the stock's all-time high of $164.46 set in the fourth quarter of 2021. Many chart analysts expect the stock to blow past that level in the near future. "Anytime a stock makes a new all-time high, it tells me something special is taking place with the company," said JC O'Hara, chief technical strategist at Roth Capital Partners. "Investors should be positioned in these risk stocks that typically outperform in a rising market environment and AMD checks that box," he said.

He jumped straight out of the cockpit and crossed the circuit, which is a breach of regulations. But given his role model status within the series, and the danger represented, governing body FIA feels this may not have been enough. Hamilton reached the inside edge of the Losail track shortly before Russell arrived at full speed having exited the pit lane. He is third in the F1 standings behind Red Bull drivers Sergio Perez and Max Verstappen, who clinched his third straight F1 title in Qatar. Alpine driver Esteban Ocon vomited inside his helmet as track temperatures reached 50 degrees Celsius (122 degrees Fahrenheit).

☆ FIA 'revisiting' Hamilton track-crossing incident in Qatar

The governing body said on Sunday it was 'revisiting' the incident. "The FIA notes that Lewis was apologetic during the subsequent stewards hearing into the incident and acknowledged that the crossing was a serious safety breach," said a statement. "However, in view of his role model status, the FIA is concerned about the impression his actions may have created on younger drivers." The stewards report at the time said Hamilton had reached the inside edge of the track just seconds before Russell arrived at high speed after exiting the pits. The governing body is likely to want to set clearer guidelines and more stringent penalties for such a breach in future.

☆ This sector is 2022's 'sneaky catch-up play,' trader says. Here are the two stocks he'd buy

"We're seeing growth come ripping back" after roughly a year of investors opting for value, Gordon said. Communications stocks have lagged the rest of the S&P 500 , but a return to growth could make them 2022's "sneaky catch-up plays," Inside Edge Capital Management founder Todd Gordon told CNBC's "Trading Nation" on Wednesday. This quarter's worst-performing sector could make a comeback in the new year, one trader says. "I think one of the sneaky catch-up plays ... is going to be communications next year. His 2022 strategy took the other side of the low interest rate trade, favoring dividend plays, particularly real estate investment trusts involved in industrial and medical office properties.

☆ The ultimate 2022 safety play could be in this unusual place, traders say

But for 2022, Tocqueville Asset Management's John Petrides sees the fixed income market as the safe haven. "It's not often we think of the high-yield bond market as the safety place," the portfolio manager told CNBC's "Trading Nation." Inside Edge Capital Management founder Todd Gordon is more cautious on the fixed income trade. Instead, Gordon suggested an options strategy to make up for lack of yield in the fixed income space. Gordon said it will allow investors to participate in the market upside with some guardrails for safety.
