In this Monday morning update, Stephen reviews the pre-market landscape with stock index futures and crude oil trading higher, while gold and Bitcoin are slightly lower. Alphabet is leading tech higher, though NVIDIA is barely moving. Despite a typically bullish Thanksgiving and month-end bias, Stephen notes the broader market continues to struggle after last week’s volatility, with the Nasdaq 100 breaking October lows and key downside targets in play. The VIX remains on buy signals, and Bitcoin continues lower toward 75,000.

U.S. index ETFs and major sectors mostly remain on sell signals, with some inside days and minor reversals. Canadian markets show relative strength, with financials and energy holding buy signals while gold stocks weaken. Most-active stocks across U.S. and Canadian markets saw new lows or quiet trading, with a few potential trend changes. Stephen concludes expecting early buying Monday but not many new buy signals, and reminds viewers to like, comment, share, and visit theuptrend.com for stock market timing insights.

Thursday delivered extreme volatility across North American markets, with major tech stocks — especially NVIDIA — leading the downturn and putting pressure on the broader indices. The S&P 500, Nasdaq, Russell 2000, semiconductors, and financials all approached or generated new sell signals based on Thursday’s close. Bitcoin also continued its sharp decline, breaking key support levels and dragging crypto-related equities lower. While U.S. markets saw heavy selling, the Canadian market held up relatively better thanks to its emphasis on banks and commodities rather than large-cap tech.

A few pockets of strength emerged, notably consumer staples driven by Walmart’s move to the Nasdaq and outperformance in Dollarama. Meanwhile, health care, biotechs, and pharmaceuticals remained stable. Energy reversed onto a sell signal, gold stocks rolled over, and materials, real estate, and cannabis stocks hit new lows. Despite the bearish tone, members using bear ETFs or short positions performed well under the current market conditions.

In this morning’s market update, Stephen Whiteside highlights the strong pre-market performance driven by NVIDIA, noting that the real importance lies in where the stock closes rather than where it opens. He explains how professional traders—not the public—ultimately influence market direction throughout the trading day. He also reviews major U.S. indices, pointing out mixed signals: while big-cap tech names are holding markets up, equal-weighted indices and small caps continue to break down below their October lows.

Stephen then covers the Canadian market, which has been relatively resilient, with strength in energy, financials, and tech. Bitcoin continues to weaken, approaching key support levels, and several crypto-related equities are making new lows. He concludes by emphasizing that today’s market action will hinge on NVIDIA’s closing performance, which should provide direction for the next several days.

In this morning’s market update, Stephen Whiteside reviews the impact of yesterday’s major Cloudflare outage, pre-market conditions, and the mixed performance across major indices and sectors. He highlights weakness in big-cap tech despite strong performance in energy stocks, rising volatility in the VIX, and ongoing economic concerns reflected in Home Depot, Target, and commercial real-estate delinquency indicators. Precious metals remain mixed, with gold holding onto its buy signal while copper and silver struggle.

The report also covers key earnings events—including NVIDIA’s much-anticipated announcement—and identifies critical support levels for major tech stocks such as Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, Meta, Alphabet, Tesla, and Shopify. Several names are approaching October or November lows, which could trigger additional downside targets if broken. The presentation concludes with a reminder of Thursday’s upcoming update and an invitation for viewers to engage and learn more about stock market timing strategies at theuptrend.com.

The market opened Monday in a mixed state, with major tech stocks and Bitcoin trading lower while crude oil pushed higher. Upcoming U.S. economic reports, including Fed minutes and jobless claims, may shift market direction. Volatility indexes for major U.S. markets remain on buy signals, indicating nervous options traders. In Canada, several ETFs and sectors—including energy, financials, and gold stocks—saw mixed performance, with energy hitting new highs while tech struggled to hold support.

In the U.S., major index ETFs continued to weaken, with the S&P 500, Nasdaq 100, and Russell 2000 trading near key support levels. Despite intraday reversals Friday, most sectors did not break previous highs, limiting the significance of the bounce. Energy hit its next price target while financials turned negative. The most active stocks list showed broad reversals but few trend changes, with names like Nvidia, Tesla, and Palantir remaining under pressure. The video concludes by emphasizing discipline, trend following, and the importance of timing in navigating volatile markets.

Markets are under heavy pressure this Friday morning, with stock index futures, commodities, and Bitcoin all selling off sharply in the pre-market. Several major U.S. and Canadian indices have slipped back into their channels or onto new sell signals, including the TSX-60, S&P 500, and Russell 2000. Bitcoin has fallen back below 100,000, and Tesla is leading the declines with significant pre-market losses. Weekly charts show mixed performance: silver and natural gas are strong, while crude oil remains weak. Many major equities—including NVIDIA, Meta, Alphabet, and Tesla—are either testing last week’s lows or generating new sell signals.

Canadian banks remain relatively stable overall, though certain names like BMO, Royal Bank, and TD are struggling to break out. The VIX appears to be forming a bullish higher low pattern, and the speaker continues to hold a long position in VIX ETFs. The Magnificent Seven ETF remains on a sell signal, with key stocks like Amazon and Meta breaking down toward lower price targets. Shopify is trending lower toward major support levels aligned with moving averages and open price gaps. With volatility rising and no meaningful attempts to rally the markets yesterday, Friday is expected to bring aggressive selling and potentially significant bearish chart patterns across sectors.
