If you’ve been trading for any length of time, you’ve probably heard some version of this advice: “Don’t fight the tape.”
Well, here’s a twist on that…
Don’t fight the bounce either.
Over the past few months, we’ve seen the market absorb a ton of bad headlines. Sticky inflation. Rate fears. Geopolitical tension. Any one of these could’ve sent the S&P 500 spiraling — but they didn’t.
Instead, the dips got bought and the indexes kept grinding higher.
That’s not noise — it’s resilience. And when the market starts shaking off negativity like that, you’ve got to pay attention. It’s one of the clearest signs that buyers are in control, even if the headlines make it feel like they shouldn’t be.
You’re seeing that same kind of strength in Bitcoin.
Every time it dips, demand seems to spike — and not just from retail. Institutions, governments and even asset managers are treating BTC like a legitimate reserve asset now. The comparison to gold isn’t just hype anymore. Gold’s been the historical safe haven, sure — but Bitcoin is quickly becoming the modern version of it.
And here’s the kicker: Bitcoin’s moves have been faster and more pronounced than gold’s — which makes sense given its smaller total market cap and built-in supply limits.
What I’m seeing now is a market that wants to go higher — and a crypto sector that’s leading the charge, not lagging behind.
The key is not getting stuck in the narrative. Watch the reactions. Price tells the truth — and right now, it’s telling us that strength is building, not breaking.
Let’s trade accordingly.
McKesson Corp. (MCK) In Bullish Mode
McKesson (MCK) has been one of the quiet leaders in 2025 — and it’s not getting nearly the attention it deserves. While most traders are chasing headlines in tech or crypto, MCK has been grinding higher thanks to good old-fashioned fundamentals.
Demand in the health care supply chain isn’t slowing down, and McKesson plays a critical role in getting pharmaceuticals and medical products into hospitals, pharmacies and clinics across the country.
With rising use, more procedures and an aging population — they’re in the sweet spot.
And while we’ve seen a lot of green on our Newton Indicator in the past, MCK did momentarily drop back into yellow and even red. But that was short-lived — it’s back to green and looking strong.
Equifax (EFX) Looking Bearish
Equifax (EFX) has been under some serious pressure this year — and it’s not just about the overall market. One of the big headwinds is a proposed change from the Federal Housing Finance Agency.
They’re looking to replace the “tri-merge” credit score system with a “bi-merge” model. That might sound like a small shift, but for Equifax, it could mean a big hit to how often it’s used in mortgage originations.
Less access, less data… that creates a revenue problem.
At the same time, Newton Indicator just dramatically lost momentum on EFX, and that’s a red flag in this kind of tape.
And then there’s the guidance…
For 2025, Equifax is projecting earnings per share well below expectations. Add in the fact that they’re forecasting a double-digit decline in U.S. mortgage credit inquiries — and now you’ve got a setup that’s hard to love.
Unless something changes in the housing credit space, EFX might stay on the back foot.
