Good morning,

It hasn’t even been a month since our 2026 Base Finder report was released, but we’ve already got some big movers.

As a reminder, the Base Finder is all about the long-term setup, but we want the tactical case to be there as well when we actually buy in. Today, we’re going to highlight some of the charts that have already worked, and others that are starting to get in gear and become tactical buys.

We’ll also review:

  • Signs of improvement in real estate

  • Some of the best charts in energy

  • Hot List updates

  • and more!
