Target Gets Targeted, Big Sell-Off Underway with Nick Santiago (Ep #392)

from Daily Market Wisdom with Nick Santiago

For more than 20 years, Master Trader Nick Santiago has been beating the markets. He’s made some incredible calls along the way and now he’s looking to spread the word. There’s no reason that the average trader should be coming up short. So now we’ve started a daily show to bring you up to date on the latest market developments. Nick will be sharing trades and concepts and discussing current trends.

Today:

1. Markets are under pressure to start the day. This dip comes as Target (TGT) reported earnings that were impressing Wall Street. Today, Target stock is trading lower by 25%. This is the biggest one day decline that I can remember in the stock. Today’s news from Target echoed Walmarts (WMT) report yesterday. The bottom line, inflation and supply shortages are hurting earnings. This news is really weighing on most of the leading retailer stocks today. When companies fail to hit their numbers, look out below.

2. MBA Mortgage Applications -11.0% wk/wk (purchase apps -12.0% wk/wk and -15.0% yryr). This news is also hurting the home-builder stocks today.

3. Gold is flat today, but holding up at the moment. Silver can’t catch a bid.

4. Bitcoin is now trading slightly lower falling below the psychological 30,000 level. The pattern is developing, but remember the trend is down. Trend is down on all the cryptos.
