The most critical signal coming from Mr. Market is simple.

Yes, we’ve been bullish on the U.S. stock market—particularly Nasdaq (QQQ) and Biotech (IBB)—over the past 9 months.

Here’s an excerpt:

“That’s why you sell the rip. That’s why when futures are up this morning after an intraday rally yesterday you sell, you don’t buy. That’s why on the lows yesterday you could cover some shorts. That’s what we did in Real-Time Alerts. It’s all timestamped.”
