Cruising Time (CCL)

Yesterday, in the last hour and a half, the market plummeted after being bullish all day. Why? No one knows. Here’s the thing: we never really know. We can guess and probably come up with a reasonable answer. But the market is one of the most complex, chaotic things on earth. And no amount of research or advanced AI will ever change that. Sometimes, we just have to trade our system and go with the flow. Looking at the charts, we notice that–despite yesterday's sudden plummeting–Carnival Corp. (CCL) has been surging toward a possible buy point. Cruise and Leisure stocks have been punished for a long time, but CCL is currently one of the hottest stocks in the country. Here’s the chart: [] Since late October, CCL has been a monster. And if it breaks above $19.55, it could be even more monstrous. As long as chaos stays calm. We’ll keep an eye on it. — Scott Welsh P.S. As a reminder, these plays are based on my longer-term Weinstein Stage Analysis method.

Apple, the tech titan we all know and love, is in quite the pickle. Just days away from Christmas, they're facing a looming ban on their smartwatches in the good ol' USA. It's the kind of dramatic plot twist you'd expect in a blockbuster movie, but this is real life, folks! Here's the scoop: Apple's been slapped with a ban by the International Trade Commission (ITC) due to a patent dispute with Masimo Corp. The bone of contention? Apple's nifty blood oxygen level measuring feature, which Masimo claims infringes on its patents. Ouch! But fear not, Apple fanatics, because the Cupertino-based company is not one to back down from a challenge. They've rallied their engineering troops to come up with a plan to save their $17 billion smartwatch business. Here's what they're up to: Code Crusaders: Apple's engineers are burning the midnight oil to tweak the algorithms that measure blood oxygen levels. They're essentially giving their tech a facelift, making it dance to a different tune. The aim? To steer clear of patent infringement and keep those smartwatches rolling off the assembly line. Retail Renovations: Apple's not stopping at software fixes. They're also revamping their retail stores, pulling ads for the Series 9 and Ultra 2 models targeted by the ban. It's a smart move, considering the lower-end SE watch can still strut its stuff. Last-Minute Shopping Spree: With the ban fast approaching, fence-sitters are left with a tough choice this Christmas: grab an Apple Watch while they still can or risk missing out on the season’s hottest gift. Apple has turned a problem into a marketing opportunity. Sneaky — but devilishly smart! While this situation might seem like uncharted territory for Apple, they're no strangers to high-stakes drama. Apple has faced legal challenges in the past, such as patent disputes. Back in 2012, there was even a case involving a patent fight with Samsung that raised concerns, though it didn't result in a full iPhone ban. In the current situation involving the ban on certain Apple Watch models, the decision on whether the ban will be enforced or overturned ultimately rests with the White House. While the ban, imposed by the International Trade Commission (ITC), prohibits Apple from selling these specific watch models in the United States, the White House has the authority to review and potentially veto such decisions made by the ITC. As we eagerly await the next episode in the Apple vs. Masimo saga, one thing's for sure: the tech world is never short of surprises. Stay tuned for the latest developments, and keep your eyes peeled for an Apple Watch under the tree this Christmas. — The Prosperity Pub Team [] [] [] ___________________________________________________ [] [] DEC 21, 2023 [] [] SCOTT WELSH’S TICKER TALES It’s Strong Despite Market Weakness Well, that was a shocker.
