When the coronavirus pandemic-related shutdowns hit the economy, EPR Properties (EPR), a real estate investment trust (REIT), was possibly the hardest-hit stock in the U.S. It is a testament to the management team’s talents that EPR has again become an REIT that every income-focused investor should know. Before the pandemic, EPR was an income machine. […]
In my free weekly video, I have an interesting chart to show you. Over 20+ years, the S&P 500 has a historical pattern of how it performs in November and December. But, more importantly, how it performs during midterms. We have midterms in two weeks, obviously, so let me give you a glimpse of how […]
I just stumbled on a stock that’s outperforming its sector and the S&P 500! The sector is down 13%… this stock is up 18%… S&P 500 has sunk 24%… again, this stock has stayed strong at 18%. It pays a dividend and the stock looks like it can still break higher even as markets hit […]
Retail investors are resilient. While institutions have de-risked their portfolios… Retail investors have kept record amounts of money in equities despite the markets wavering.

Once a popular meme stock, Bed, Bath & Beyond (BBBY) could be in trouble. The stock price has recently shot higher on news that insiders are buying the shares. However, a large purchase of put options that expire in January of 2024 suggests there could be significant downside in the stock. This put position will […]
After some bearish behavior in early May… We’ve seen a snapback rally to close out the month… but how high could this rally go? I’ve seen this type of pattern happen many times in my career. In this short 3-minute video, I’ll breakdown what I see, plus how much higher potentially this rally could go. […]
2022 has certainly brought about a change in market sentiment. No longer favored are the “to the moon” technology companies boasting about how they were “disruptors” with fast growth.

The energy sector has been far and away the best performing sector over the last year with both oil and gas prices having been on the rise. A popular way to trade the energy sector as a whole is through the Energy Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLE). XLE has been a solid gainer for 2022, […]
