This Market Is WILD!
Hei,
I'm getting tired of reporting to all your degens the market hit another new all-time high, but here we are. Just smile & wave, boys!
The major news of last weeks was Fed Chair Powell's congressional testimony. He didn't say this too directly, but he strongly indicated we are getting close to rate cuts. The market loved the idea of loose monetary policy, which is we continued our tip higher. We also got an update on the national unemployment. The data reading came in higher than expected. I know this seems like a negative, but don't forget that the Fed is looking for the unemployment rate to increase. In a paradoxical way, more people being unemployment was bullish for the stock market.
Looking ahead, we have a handful of earnings you might be interested in this upcoming week. They are detailed below, but I think there is more exciting things to consider. Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday all have highly impactful reports. We will be getting both more inflation readings and the results of key bond auctions. Historically, these have had a considerable influence on the intraday price action. Stay frosty!
Ha det,

Piper took a stumble the conclude the week. Overall, she is crushing the entire year, but I do find Friday to be problematic. I don't mind that she lost. I mind that she lost on a 5/5 (bullish) confidence day. From a statistics standpoint, Friday was extremely abnormal for a variety of reasons. There is a chance this was a bad beat, but I want to do some research to see if it's avoidable in the future. I'll let you know what I find!

Top 5 Charts of Interest
Bitcoin
BTC hit a new all-time high! Congrats to all of you who had the balls to hold! Personally, I think the price goes even higher. I'm a big fan of the "high flag" consolidation. I'll be looking for an open range breakout in the near future.
Nvidia
NVDA has been ripping higher and higher for countless days, weeks, and months. Most recently, there was a bearish engulfing candle. This is commonly a sign of buyer exhaustion. I don't think it's smart to bet against such a monster, but I do believe it will need some consolidation before another upside move.
Tesla
TSLA is a pivotal price point. If it bounces, I'll be looking for the upside gap fil to $187ish. If this support cannot hold, I'd be expecting the selloff to continue to $165.
Meta
META is continuing to dominate -- Nothing but higher highs and higher lows. I'm expecting a brief period of consolidation. After that, I'll be watching closely to try to ride the next leg to the upside.
Apple
APPL is getting crushed. I strongly believe there is potential for the price action to lead downward to the $165 support. The bounce or breakdown at the point could have implications on the entire market. Watch this one closely!
Bonus Chart: Gold
Similar to digital gold, actual gold is exploding to the heavens. I don't like chasing, so I personally wouldn't be a buyer here. However, if you got your rocket ticket at the end of February when I first started talking about the potential, huge congrats to you!
