They've been telling me for almost a year that this is just a bear market rally.

If you're one of those people, I would ask your therapist about it.

The New Lows list peaked last June.

It's been steady improvement and sector rotation ever since.

This month is just the latest example. We now started to get rotation into Small-caps.

I'm convinced the world needs more bubble charts. There just aren't enough.

So here at Allstarcharts we're just doing our part.

No rest for the weary...

We have CPI for May coming out at 8:30 a.m. ET.

I'll hold off on ideas until I see how the market absorbs the data.

Welcome back to Under the Hood, where we'll cover all the action for the week ended June 9, 2023. This report is published bi-weekly and rotated with The Minor Leaguers.

What we do here is analyze the most popular stocks during the week and find opportunities to either join in and ride these momentum names higher, or fade the crowd and bet against them.

Under the Hood is a value-add for investors of all kinds, as we can express our views through a variety of different types of stocks.

We use a variety of sources to generate the list of most popular names.

This is one of our favorite bottom-up scans: Follow the Flow.

In this note, we simply create a universe of stocks that experienced the most unusual options activity — either bullish or bearish, but not both.

We utilize options experts, both internally and through our partnership with The TradeXchange. Then, we dig through the level 2 details and do all the work upfront for our clients.

Our goal is to isolate only those options market splashes that represent levered and high-conviction, directional bets.

New highs for $QQQ once again...

There hasn't been any cooling off for the indices just yet.

We'll see what this week brings.

The most significant transaction on today's list comes in a Form 4 from Diversified Healthcare Trust director Adam Portnoy.

It's going to be a busy week, with CPI tomorrow and the Fed on Wednesday.

We must be on our toes and trade tactically.

The new 52-week highs list keeps on getting longer.

You can add the S&P500 ETF $SPY to that list now.

Here's what that looks like:

It wasn't  the strongest Friday, but $SPY did take out the August high.

Next week will be a big one for data. I still think we can see SPY 422.92 sooner versus later.

The most significant transaction on today's list comes in a Form 4 filing by Thomas W. Warsop III, president and chief executive officer of ACI Worldwide Inc $ACIW.

Warsop revealed the acquisition of 43,000 shares of ACIW, equivalent to $1 million.
