I heard talk of GIC’s on BNN today – can get a 1 year for over 4%:

On the other end of the risk spectrum, SMH made a new 52 week + low but closed higher, bouncing off the 200 week EMA. Maybe bounce up to the descending 20EMA ~ 233, which would be a good trade.

Update on XBI: price has continued up to the now turning up 20EMA on the weekly chart. So far, so good.

Here is a one year chart of XBI. Nice bounce back plus price has cleared the Nov/21 to April/22 downtrendline along with clearing $73.21 resistance. Price is now bumping resistance at the March low of 81.07. The 20ema is about to cross above the 50ema soon as well and the oscillators are now bullish. Big improvement!!!! I’d like to see price pullback to 73.21 for a buy myself.

Ron/BC,
Thanks for posting the daily chart on XBI. I agree that there has been a big improvement on this etf, including outperforming SPY. On the daily you show how it is facing some resistance at the March low at 81.07, so could see some consolidation. If it were to pull back to 73.21, the chart would not look as bullish but that could happen on a bad market day. If it can breakout over 81 on a large move on large volume, then could test the next level ~ 89 – 90.

Yes a breakout over 81 would continue the momentum and likely run up to 90 but it has already bounced about $8-$9 and momentum indicators are stretched somewhat. I just thought a likely scenario would be a pullback to about $74 or even $77 and then a slingshot move up and through $81 to $90 in short order. This chart is deceptive as the dollar moves are large unlike a lot of stocks.
