We have a perfect storm of positives to kick off the week.
Positive China trade news
Positive Thanksgiving week seasonality
Solid technical pattern after a period of consolidation
A high level of anticipatory bears
Underinvested longs looking for exposure
Stronger pockets of momentum
Small-cap improvements.
So far the S&P500 has gone straight up from the open without any pullback. The biggest difficulty for many market participants is trying to put money to work. I have far too much cash and I'm chasing entry points trying to put it to work.
A good example of the momentum out there right now Splunk Inc. (SPLK) , which is building on a big move on Friday after a strong report. I'm playing Datadog Inc. (DDOG) and Ping Identity Holding Corp. (PING) , that are related.
InMode Ltd. (INMD) came back very nicely after a sharp selloff and my technical buy here on Monday is NeoPhotonics Corp. (NPTN) . A few other names on my radar are AudioCodes Ltd. (AUDC) , Sea Limited (SE) and Inseego Corp. (INSG) .
This price action is steamrolling the bears and causing some major FOMO (fear of missing out) among the bulls.

Environmental, social, and corporate governance has created a monster and gullible investors should hit the brakes on their EVs and run from the Washington technocrats while they have the chance.
