Very tough day today as we mourn the loss of IBD founder Bill O’Neil. An amazing individual with incredible passion and drive who touched so many lives, including mine. RIP Bill. You truly were one of a kind.

Can’t stress enough — the market always bottoms the same way. Wait for rally attempt then watch for follow through — Not all follow-through days work, but no meaningful market uptrend has started without one

Friday’s FTD had plenty of power. Volume was skewed by Russell index rebalancing..still a bullish close. Health care stocks should continue to lead a tradeable rally up to the 50- day line. But it’s reasonable to expect some resistance at that level #stocks

Big spike in put/call ratio today to 1.44%. Excessive fear seen near MANY market bottoms in past, but the velocity of the latest sell-off will likely take some time to sort out. It's OK. Cash is a position, Check out the latest Big Pic by @IBD_JArancibia

The #stockmarket fired a warning shot Friday, but it’ll take a lot more than that to derail the rally. For the #nasdaq it’s just a test of the 10-day moving average. #Leaderboard is still aggressively invested, but if we see more signs of distribution, we’ll play more defense

Always check a stock's RS line on the weekly chart. It's good to see it at or near new high ground when a stock is breaking out of base. If the RS line is lagging, caveat emptor.

Silver lining to recent selling in broad market is that there's a legitimate shakeout going on. Emerging leaders will start forming the right side of bases at some point amid signs of institutional buying. IBD growth screens will pick this pick this up. Patience.

Risk-on trade in full effect again Tuesday. Remember, stick with the leaders. Be careful of buying 2nd/3rd tier stocks in a group. In the chip sector, it's $AMD $NVDA, not $QCOM $AVGO. OK to stay on offense but play defense too. Don't be afraid to trim where appropriate.
