iShares Russell 2000 Fund (IWM)

Look like we will have lower low or a test of a trend line.  Not yet a buy and hold.

Let's compare the MTUM chart above with another favorite of mine, the iShares Russell 2000 Fund (IWM). This fund is a way to track U.S. small-cap stocks...

From the high, I used three trend lines instead of two. You can measure from the absolute high and important swing highs as the market trends lower. If you follow the trends down, you'll see how the bottom two trend lines marked important swing highs for IWM.

The takeaway is that you shouldn't just rely on one trend line – you have to use several to get a better idea of where resistance will be within a downtrend. Like MTUM, IWM is in a downtrend that's marked by lower highs... It made a lower low last week and is still below its 200-DMA.

  t’s one of the oldest pearls of wisdom on Wall Street, and for good reason.

ETFMG Prime Cyber Security ETF (HACK)

ETFMG Prime Cyber Security ETF   ( HACK ) The   ETFMG Prime Cyber Security ETF   ( HACK )   has slumped 28.27% from Jan. 2022 to the present, though it has shown some signs of life over the past two months. After hitting a new low for 2022 on Oct. 13, HACK bounced 14% (which outpaced NASDAQ’s 9% bounce in that same time). It hit resistance at about $47.50 on Dec. 1 but seems to have found some support around $42.60. This chart, like many stocks as of late, doesn’t look so hot. But check out HACK’s past three years… That tells a somewhat different story. You can see where cybersecurity stocks were headed before inflation, bond yields, and interest rates dragged on the market this year. But the underlying trend hasn’t changed. The odds that cyber threats will decrease in the coming years are, to quote Muhammed Ali, “Slim, and none. And Slim just left town.” HACK and cybersecurity stocks are likely to return to previous highs and then some.

Hypatia Women CEO ETF WCEO ETF

Hypatia Women CEO ETF WCEO ETF A new Exchange Traded Fund is taking the next step with gender diversity investing. The   Hypatia Women CEO ETF (WCEO)   is the first ETF to focus strictly on women-run companies. The only two requirements for a company be owned in WCEO are that it has a market cap of at least $500 million and a woman runs the company, either from the CEO or Chairperson position. WCEO will have at least 80% of its assets in US companies that female Chief Executive Officers lead. Furthermore, the fund may invest up to 20% of holdings in US companies with an Executive Chairperson or a Chairperson who is female. WCEO is a one-of-a-kind ETF, but it does have some competition if an investor is looking for a woman-focused ETF. This is a good alternative investment due to the fact that women running businesses are not aggressive, do not make short-term actions and are better at ESG decisions. I feel WCEO is a good buy because, over the last few years, we have continued to get mo
