While most of the attention has been on AI and tech stocks, SMID-cap names have been quietly putting together a nice rally over the past couple of weeks. $iShares Russell 2000 ETF(IWM)$  $Direxion Daily Small Cap Bull 3x Shares(TNA)$  $ProShares UltraPro Russell 2000(URTY)$  $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$  $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ 

$SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ $United States Oil Fund LP(USO)$ SLV.XThe $27 Middle East risk premium in Brent should disappear quickly if the exit polls turn out to be accurate. Oil looks set to drop. Grok, Gemini, and ChatGPT are all pointing to the same conclusion. $AppLovin Corporation(APP)$ 

$SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$  Is the move higher being driven by too many puts in open interest? Has anyone checked what the algos are doing?

Gold miners are hitting highs of the day. Nice to see it holding up without the usual pop and fade. $VanEck Gold Miners ETF(GDX)$  $MicroSectors Gold Miners 3x Leveraged ETN(GDXU)$  GLD.X $Direxion Daily Gold Miners Index Bull 2X Shares(NUGT)$  $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ 

$Ondas Holdings Inc.(ONDS)$ $BlackBerry(BB)$ When will you be happy to buy? Still stuck in your indecision? $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$  $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$  $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ 

$Apple(AAPL)$ Bears would need to break through around 340-339 just to break even today on the theta, and that seems very unlikely. Their premium is getting hit. $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$  $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$  bulls are still in control.

$SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ Irrational exuberance in the massive stacking of doom puts is creating an elevated 4.13 P/C ratio, which could easily trigger a GEX gamma squeeze.

Futures are open and looking bullish. $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ 

$SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ Imagine holding puts over the weekend and seeing futures ripping.

$SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ The tape is still locked at 759.97 after Friday's -0.5% bleed. BOBO.X is staying quiet until futures open, with an eye on the next leg down.

$Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$  Hold and wait for it. It's just a matter of time before they buy back.

NQThe Nasdaq future is only 5% from its all-time high. It would be nice to see a few new ATHs during this earnings season. $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$  $ProShares UltraPro QQQ(TQQQ)$  $iShares Semiconductor ETF(SOXX)$  $Roundhill Memory ETF(DRAM)$ 

$SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ The higher lows and the lower wick off the upper daily EMA support pointed to another bounce. The daily EMA was the stop loss on entry. Now it needs a new high of day for calls to keep working from this level.

$SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ The after-hours moves in $SpaceX(SPCX)$  and $NVIDIA(NVDA)$  just wiped out 30-40% of the fast money crowd that went short $Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$  over the past two days. They're likely to get squeezed out now. A hard lesson learned. $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ 

$SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$  $United States Oil Fund LP(USO)$ $Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund(XLE)$ $Halliburton(HAL)$ Halliburton's CEO said we are another three months into one of the largest energy disruptions in history. He expects the work to restore production, rebuild inventories and strengthen energy security to drive multi-year demand growth for oilfield services.

$SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ All the volatility and black Monday talk looks off the table for now. We could test 756-757 soon and bounce from there. Expect chop or a grind higher until further notice.

Picked up a few call options on CoreWeave at this major support level. Buyers have been stepping in to defend this zone, which makes the risk/reward setup interesting. The risk is a breakdown below support, which could trigger a sweep lower. $CoreWeave, Inc.(CRWV)$  $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$  $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$  $SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF Trust(DIA)$  $iShares Russell 2000 ETF(IWM)$ 

$iShares Russell 2000 ETF(IWM)$ $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$  Two down weeks in tech after two up months? That looks like healthy consolidation. I'm buying the dip.

$SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ BTC.XBitcoin holding the 80k level makes me far less concerned about a continued dump in risk assets to start the week. I think we see a rebound this week from the recent tech rout. With earnings season starting to kick off, it should present a good entry for many names that were beaten down recently.

$SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ Green. Hot CPI/PPI was already priced in. Market couldn't even sell off with super hot numbers, honestly.
