Not if you’re one of the over 200 new 52 week lows in the NASDAQ on Friday vs. ~20 new highs. You’ll see a similar trend in many corners of the microcap world. For example, of the 153 stocks in the @MSmicrocaps quality index, there were no new highs on Friday and 7 lows. And… the index is very diversified and not overly reliant on AI stocks. Although, it’s still up 17% for the year. At @GeoInvesting, the ratio was 4 to 15 across 204 stocks on certain screens we track. The biggest point I’m trying to make is that momentum investing is a nice strategy, even during pockets of market pullbacks. Stocks that are able to hit a high in a broad market demolition in the areas I track pique my curiosity. It’s basically a way to filter out all the crap, catalyst stocks that haven’t panned out or companies that just don’t deserve to be trading at premium multiples. Obviously, you can find some nice pullback gems. Interestingly, lots of OTC microcaps we track have been relatively unscathed. Another point in favor of illiquid microcaps, like $MUEL $BURCA . The DOW & S&P have held up (no microcaps there). Right now, you’re going to be rewarded well for finding quality companies in any pocket of the market. That’s for sure. Or betting that yet another Jensen affair will be uncovered within the next seven days. Long Jensen Huang, short $NVDA.
