T2118
This week, the T2118 market breadth indicator closed at 17.12, raising eyebrows given the strong bounce in major market indexes. Typically, when indexes rally, T2118 should follow, reflecting broader participation in the recovery. However, the lack of a corresponding bounce in T2118 suggests something is amiss beneath the surface.
The data points to a rally lacking conviction. While certain sectors and individual stocks have shown strength, most stocks appear to be lagging, with no meaningful follow-through. This selective participation underscores the fragility of the current market environment.
Adding to the uncertainty, the VIX volatility index remains elevated at 37.56, signaling heightened fear and instability. Such high volatility makes it challenging for investors to hold positions beyond short-term trades, as the risk of sudden reversals looms large.
Looking ahead, the coming week may provide greater clarity on the market's direction. For now, the divergence between T2118 and the broader indexes serves as a cautionary signal.
T2108
Last week’s T2108 readings were accurate, as the market rebounded as expected. With T2108 dropping below the 8.00-6.00 range—a rare occurrence—savvy investors had the chance to capitalize on both short-term swing trades and long-term accumulation of shares or ETFs.
Currently, T2108 has climbed to 13.46, indicating some recovery. However, this contrasts sharply with T2118, which remains subdued. This divergence underscores the importance of using both indicators together for a comprehensive view of market conditions.
Adding complexity, the Trump administration announced exemptions for smartphones, laptops, and semiconductors from new tariffs. This news will likely trigger a sharp gap up in the market on Monday, introducing another layer of volatility. The key question is whether this gap will lead to follow-through buying or turn into a classic "sell the news" event.
Given the heightened uncertainty, our strategy for the early part of the week is to remain calm and observe how the market reacts.
The 4% Bull-Bear Indicator is currently unreliable due to distorted data from tariff-related announcements and extreme volatility.
The 25% Bull-Bear Indicator continues to show bears in control, though their momentum appears to be waning slightly.

VAL: Valaris Ltd. 📊
What they do: Offshore drilling services for oil and gas exploration.
Why watch? 🛢️ The critical question: How much bad news is already priced in? We believe VAL is approaching a bottom. The $29.00-$30.00 range represents key support on weekly and monthly charts, with the stock repeatedly failing to break below on the daily timeframe. A bit more consolidation, coupled with positive oil sector news, could trigger a significant upward move.

OKTA: Okta, Inc. 📊
What they do: Identity and access management solutions.
Why watch? 💻 A market leader before recent tariff concerns, OKTA found strong support at the 200 EMA and is now consolidating above the critical $100 level near the 50 EMA. The stock is forming a mini cup-and-handle pattern—a few more days of sideways action would create an ideal setup for the next leg up.
PLTR: Palantir Technologies Inc. 📊
What they do: Data analytics and AI solutions.
Why watch? 🤖 One of the market's strongest performers, PLTR remains largely unaffected by tariff concerns. The stock is currently resting on stacked support from the 10, 20, and 50 EMAs. While additional consolidation would be ideal, this is a name you'll want to catch before it makes its next move.
NBIS: Nebius Group NV ⚠️
What they do: Diversified technology company operating in the US and Europe
Why watch? 📈 NBIS is sandwiched between $19.50 support and $22.50 resistance with decreasing volume—a classic pre-breakout pattern. We anticipate a new leg higher soon, with the first target being a decisive break above $22.50 on strong volume. The stock recently formed a promising hammer candlestick pattern and showed resilience during Friday's market decline.
RKLB: Rocket Lab USA, Inc. ⚠️
What they do: Aerospace and space launch services.
Why watch? 🌌 Space stocks are demonstrating exceptional relative strength, positioning the sector for leadership in the next bull market phase. RKLB is currently pulling back to the 10 and 20 EMAs, offering a potential low-risk entry point. Reduced volatility in the coming days could create an optimal setup for this innovative company with strong long-term prospects.

PAGS: Pagseguro Digital Ltd 📊
What they do: Brazilian fintech offering comprehensive banking services
Why watch? 🏦 PAGS has evolved from a payment processor into a full-service digital bank offering current accounts, CDs, lending products, and card services for both B2B and B2C customers. Backed by Brazil's leading media conglomerate, Grupo UOL/Folha, the company benefits from strong institutional support and market recognition.
The investment thesis centers on geographic diversification away from US markets, with Brazil potentially benefiting from changing global trade dynamics. Despite proposed US tariffs, economists suggest Brazil's economy may prove relatively advantageous in this environment, with markets reacting positively to these developments.
Technically, the stock has been under heavy accumulation since early 2025, with $8.50 representing a crucial technical level on both daily and weekly charts.
