🚨 BREAKING: June PPI Inflation Comes In Cooler Than Expected
🇺🇸 Producer inflation showed a major slowdown in June:
➤ PPI MoM: -0.3%
Forecast: 0.0% | Previous: 1.1%
➤ PPI YoY: 5.5%
Forecast: 6.2% | Previous: 6.5%
➤ Core PPI MoM: 0.2%
Forecast: 0.4% | Previous: 0.4%
➤ Core PPI YoY: 4.7%
Forecast: 5.2% | Previous: 4.6%
The -0.3% monthly decline was the largest drop since April 2025.
Overall, this is another encouraging inflation report. Wholesale price pressures are cooling faster than expected, which could further reduce the chances of additional rate hikes.
Potentially bullish for risk assets, especially $SPY, $SPX and $QQQ. 📈

$OPEN (Weekly Chart) 👀
Bulls are starting to push into the long-term descending trendline after months of consolidation.
The $6.00 level is the key breakout zone I'm watching. A weekly close above $6.00 would be a major technical win:
✅ Break above the long-term downtrend
✅ Reclaim a key resistance zone
✅ Shift momentum back in favor of the bulls
If buyers can hold above $6.00, the next area I'm watching is $9.75–$10.70.
One step at a time... let's see if the bulls can finish the job. 👀🚀

👀 $GERN – Potential Cup & Handle developing.
Bulls are starting to build momentum after bouncing from the lows.
The key level I'm watching is $1.46. A strong daily close above $1.46, ideally on increased volume, could confirm the breakout and open the door toward the $1.80–$1.84 resistance zone.
Setup is improving... now let's see if buyers can finish the job. 👀

🚨 $OPEN - One of the cleanest charts I'm watching right now. 👀
This year-long downtrend has rejected price multiple times... but bulls are testing it again.
✅ A daily close above the downtrend would be the first bullish confirmation.
🚀 A breakout and close above the $5.50–$6.00 resistance zone could bring in real momentum and open the door for a move toward the next major resistance levels.
History doesn't repeat, but it often rhymes. Let's see if the bulls finally take control.
