The rebound in emerging market stocks has given us a new buy signal. We’re going to complete our position in Weibo (WB) by buying another half position, and take a full position in NetEase (NTES).

The market continues to act excellently, and we’re pleased to see more and more growth-oriented stocks flex their muscles, while many defensive sectors take a breather. Of course, part and parcel of that is that we’re seeing a little froth; investor sentiment is getting a bit giddy as some names explode higher. That doesn’t mean a top is imminent—our Market Monitor is solidly in the bullish camp—but it does mean you should be prepared for some news-driven potholes. Overall, you should be holding your best performers and putting more money to work at good entry points, but be sure not to get carried away after a good few months.

When I recommended TSLA stock back in December 2011, the only Tesla cars on the street were the two-seat Roadsters.

Our system looks for stocks with a unique mix of shorter-term relative strength (to tell you buyers are active now) and longer-term relative strength (to tell you the overall path of least resistance is up) and then takes out the illiquid stocks. I’m usually left with a few dozen names out of more than 10,000 in the market—all of which are under intense accumulation.

The S&P 500 has now regained more than half of what it lost in the bear market selloff. We are still in the midst of a six-week rally, although it has leveled off in the past few weeks. What can you expect going forward?

It is to your advantage to know when the companies you own are going to release their quarterly and annual reports.

Happy Thanksgiving! I’ve written in the past that dividend investments can be a solid piece of your portfolio. I prefer growth stocks, and in that realm, dividends are basically meaningless. However, with more and more stocks, trusts, exchange-traded funds and the like, there are definitely intelligent ways to invest for yield. But beware of the supposed free lunch on Wall Street, because there is no such thing. Double-check the safety of the dividend before you jump in.
