A New Trend To Own Today


The beginning of the new year always offers an incredible amount of opportunity to traders and investors that can zero in on changing market trends, new themes and narratives.

This year is no different.

There are a number of new sectors breaking out, industry groups leading higher, and stocks poised for monster years.

But there's one that has caught my attention over the last couple of months..

And while the traders inside of TTI are being rewarded right now for being early in this trade, there's still plenty of time left to get on.

The most important sector in the market right now is..

The "Commodity Supercycle"

Over the last decade, many major financial institutions and professional analysts have called for a commodity supercycle.

While their timing was off, there intuition was right.. and we're seeing it begin to play out right now.

Here's how the metals space looks over the last 12 months:

We already know that Silver and Gold are undergoing historic rallies.. we've been long both the entire time.

But look at Copper, which is trading at all-time highs.

And Aluminum, Platinum, Palladium and more all trading at new highs.

This isn't just a precious metals story.. this is an entire asset class story.

Luckily, we can capture these moves not only trading and investing in the underlying asset itself but also companies that are tied to the asset class.

Just look at the Materials sector (XLB) today:

After a 5-year base, XLB is on the verge of breaking out into new all-time highs.

This sector has everything we look for in a new leadership group:

  • It's trending above an upwards sloping 200-day moving average
  • It's trading within a bullish momentum regime
  • It's outperforming every other sector year-to-date

That potent combination of trend, relative strength, and momentum is what gives TTI the incredible edge we have in the market.

By aligning ourselves with the major financial institutions and following where they're capital is flowing, we benefit from powerful and robust trends that tend to last quarters, not days or weeks.

This is the crux of the Profits Over Prophets Framework.

Expressing The Trade

There is nothing worse than picking the right sector, the right industry, and the wrong stock.

Not every trade is the same. Not every setup is worth your time.

You should be relentlessly hunting for the leaders in every area of the market you want to own.

The Metals and Mining industry (XME) is the leading industry group year-to-date and is a sub-industry within the Materials sector.

Diving into XME brings up multiple stocks that are up 10%, 20%, 30% and more.

One in particular has found support at a rising 200-day moving average and is bouncing higher:

MP Materials (MP) has all of the characteristics we look for when opening a position.

  • It's trending higher, trading above an upwards sloping 200-day moving average
  • It's a top performing within both its sector and industry
  • It's trading within a multi-year bullish momentum regime

Once again.. all three things we look for in a trade.

And a relatively easy to follow trade setup using the 200-day moving average as your guide.

We're in MP, up marginally, and expect it to continue to work for us along with the entire sector and industry.

It doesn't just stop with MP..

There are dozens of incredible setups within the Materials sector. You just have to go out and find them.

In case you haven't heard.. The Mag-7 trade is dead. Tech is on its last legs. And the bull market is nearly over. At least, that's what Gold is saying. And Silver. And Energy. And everything else according almost everyone else that has an opinion. Except me. I don't think any of that. Actually, quite the opposite. I think there's a possibility here that we're still very much in the middle of a cyclical bull market which is poised to continue ripping higher. And it all starts with the charts....

Every few months, the market rolls out a new reason the AI trade is “over.” A couple of years ago it was NVDA and CoreWeave. Then it was Chinese AI. Then it was the Oracle debt crisis. The narrative always changes. But price never lies. The real engine behind AI continues to press higher the entire time. It isn't the Mag-7.. It's the entire Semiconductor industry. And it's trading at all-time highs. The Bull Market Reset Last year I went on record stating that a new bull market in Tech and...

Last night my wife and I found out that we're having another boy this year. I'm excited. Being a dad is easily the best thing I've ever had the honor of being. This morning as we picked up the house after a wild night filled with Brazilian churrasco, cachaça, cervejas that are so cold that they're more like a slushy than a beer, and more.. I hopped online to check out if I could find a Rolex to purchase for my second son. A long with a 529, a brokerage account, and whatever the hell the Trump...
