Publications

Previosly the co-author of the The Weekly Speculator (since 2004) and a bi-weekly industry index relative strength analysis titled the Sector Study which is longer published but became the genesis of the current suite of three Weekly ETF Studies that are published every third week. These include US Sector and Index ETF Study, Developed Market Country ETF Study and Emerging Market Country ETF Study that track the technical condition of over 70 ETFs, examples of which can be seen in the “Work” section. More recently a weekly publication titled The Market’s Compass Crypto Sweet Sixteen Study has been added to the suite of Studies. The Study tracks the technical condition of sixteen of the larger market cap cryptocurrencies and uses a similar metodology that is used in the ETF Studies. Every week (published on Sundays) the Studies highlights the technical changes of the 16 larger cap cryptocurrencies that I track as well as highlights noteworthy moves in individual Cryptocurrencies and Indexes.All four Studies are distributed to institutional investors, RIA’s, hedge funds and individual investors.
