MoneyShow

I’m “wheels up” to our 2026 MoneyShow Masters Symposium Las Vegas tomorrow – and I hope to see you there! I always kick our events off with a discussion of important trading action and key market trends. This time, I'm going to share the most important chart I'll cover in Vegas with you here, too. Take a look at my MoneyShow Chart of the Day. It shows the performance of a broad range of chip companies over the last month.

I’d rather be buying gradually at these levels than to risk missing what looks like a drawn-out bottom.

Higher gasoline prices are taking a bite out of various sectors of the economy. But one segment that could stand to benefit from it is the ride-hailing market. Lyft Inc. (LYFT) is the well-known rideshare operator, commanding the number-two spot in the US ridesharing market behind Uber Technologies Inc. (UBER), notes Clif Droke, editor of Cabot Turnaround Letter.
