The local market looks to have temporarily stalled forming a bullish flag type pattern and is getting close to making another higher close. With the overall market 22 percent from this years high Charlie wonders how many businesses are close to 20 percent off their best revenues and profits?

The price of gold came off again last night and is struggling to stay in the top half of the current range.

The Australian dollar has been moving up well and is not that far off the early 2020 high around 70.3 cents.

The price of MP1 looks to be consolidating above the recent break above old tops.

After a big move off the lows Credit Corp is in a sideways move for now.

With tourists itching to travel when the borders re-open we bought a position in Ardent Leisure and Qantas today.

Audinate is consolidating before the next move.

Whitehaven Coal has been in a sideways funk for some time.

Accent Group had a small move after breaking higher then testing support before another possible leg up.

The portfolio is getting a bit full and we sold the VTS ETF  and the smaller holding of Magellan today to make room for other trades.
