The reason you’re unhappy is that you haven’t found the right thing to buy. There’s something out there you can purchase that will make this all go away
My entire feed is guys posting “Be greedy when others are fearful” but then you realize they’re talking about some commodity input in the data center supply chain run by a C-tier management team that went up 1,300% in the last two years and is now down 18% from all time highs
‼️ CONGRESS ACTUALLY DOES SOMETHING PRODUCTIVE
21st Century ROAD to Housing Act Passed The Senate 85-5
Key provisions:
- Bars large institutional investors (350+ single-family homes) from buying more
- Cuts red tape & streamlines environmental reviews to speed up new construction
- Modernizes manufactured housing rules & financing
- Expands local control + grants to boost supply in high-cost areas
When you are trading well, that's the time when you should be very hard on yourself- develop a plan to fix the holes in your trading.
When you are struggling, that's the time to show yourself some grace.
THIS ISN’T THE NASDAQ ANYMORE.
THIS IS NASDAQISTAN !!!!
THERE IS NO EXTRACTION PLAN, THERE IS NO AIR SUPPORT. WE ARE BEHIND ENEMY LINES FIGHTING TILL THE DEATH !!! POWELL LEFT US TO DIE AND TOOK THE LAST HELICOPTER OUT.
IF I DON’T MAKE IT, TELL MY FAMILY I DIED DOING WHAT I LOVED: BUYING DEEP OTM CALLS ON INTEL THIS IS MY HOLY WAR, THIS IS MY JIHAD !!!
Many of these smaller names/speculative stocks are really flying left and right.
Momentum is absolutely in favor and you get rewarded for buying strength.

"Professor, don't you find it curious that a new US-Iran peace deal leaks almost every time the 10y UST yield breaks 4.4% on the upside?"
"Actually, if I think about it, I don't find it curious at all."
Almost nobody looks at this chart… but it’s one of my favorite ways to spot when a move may be running on fumes.
This is a simple 60‑minute line chart of high yield vs SPY. I use it to track divergences between “smart money” (bonds) and “dumb money” (equities).
The last major signal was at the bottom, high yield quietly started putting in a higher low while stocks were still puking. That helped flag the turn.
Fast‑forward to now: $JNK and $HYG are not confirming this latest push in SPY. Stocks are pressing higher, high yield is stalling out.
That doesn’t guarantee a top, but when "Smart Money" refuses to play along, I take note.
Palantir vient de publier son manifeste. Lisez-le.
Pas pour ce qu'il dit sur la tech. Pour ce qu'il dit sur le politique. Sur l'idéologie de Karp et Thiel. Sur la guerre. Sur vous.
Quand une entreprise privée se donne pour mission de définir qui doit être surveillé, ciblé, prédit, neutralisé, et qu'elle publie simultanément un texte expliquant pourquoi contester cela serait de la faiblesse civilisationnelle, on n'est plus dans la stratégie d'entreprise. On est dans la privatisation du souverain. Le droit de décider de l'ennemi, qui fut toujours le geste politique fondateur des États, est en train d'être racheté par une entreprise cotée au Nasdaq.
Ce manifeste repose sur un seul tour de passe-passe, répété sous vingt formes différentes : rendre l'inévitable ce qui est en réalité un choix. Les armes à IA ? Elles seront construites de toute façon, alors autant que ce soit nous.
La surveillance algorithmique ? La réalité géopolitique l'exige.
Le réarmement de l'Occident, la hiérarchie des cultures, la disqualification du pluralisme comme naïveté dangereuse ? Simple lucidité face au monde tel qu'il est.
C'est le geste idéologique par excellence : ne pas interdire la question, mais la rendre indécente.
Ce que Palantir appelle réalisme est en fait une décision philosophique radicale : le conflit est la vérité permanente du monde, la délibération démocratique est une fragilité que l'adversaire exploitera, et une élite technologique privée est mieux placée qu'un peuple pour tirer les conséquences de cette vérité.
C'est du schmittisme en hoodie. C'est littéralement la structure de leur pensée.
Le danger n'est pas qu'ils soient fous. Le danger est qu'ils soient riches, cohérents, et déjà à l'intérieur des États. Palantir ne frappe pas à la porte des gouvernements pour vendre un outil. Elle arrive avec une cosmologie complète : voici comment fonctionne le monde, voici vos ennemis, voici pourquoi vous ne pouvez pas vous permettre de débattre, et voici notre contrat.
Palantir est l'ennemie des peuples et de la démocratie. Ce qu'ils construisent, c'est un pouvoir technocratique que personne n'a élu et que personne ne pourra destituer.
The narrative used to be “weak breadth” and “lack of participation”
Now… Strong breadth is here and seems like no one owns the stocks going up.
Energy, Materials, Homebuilders, Transports, Industrials, etc.
Too busy complaining about MAG 7 names lagging or garbage high beta getting rocked.
Quite the Day In Thematic Land!
Fiber Optics, AI/DC, Rare Earth, Space, Drones, Uranium, Semi's, Aerospace/Defense, Power Gen, Quantum, Etc++
See if follow through occurs.
The mineral supercycle is here. By 2035: 33% copper deficit, 38% lithium shortage.
Pure plays:
Copper:
$COPX - ETF
$FCX - Miner
Lithium:
$LIT - ETF
$ALB - Miner
Nickel:
$VALE $NILSY $BHP - Miners
EVs, DCs, the Grid need 10x more minerals.
Supply can’t keep up with demand.
Since the start of the year, 90% of my entries have come from Undercut + Reclaim or (U&R) setups against key EMAs and weekly pivots, and this past week offered a few perfect examples of why this approach is so powerful.
Here’s why U&R setups are so effective in this environment:
Take $RKLB and $APLD, I caught over +100% on 20 Feb contracts in both names. The ideas came from defined risk entries at failed breakdowns, precisely at the points where buyers stepped in after testing support.
Failed Breakdown = Inflection Point.
When a stock undercuts a key level like the 9/21 EMA or a weekly pivot, it triggers weak hands to sell and shorts to feel "confident."
...but if buyers step in immediately, it creates a shift in control, turning a previous low into a "high probability" entry point.
1) Defined Risk (most important):
Your stop is clear, the low of the day (LOD).
If the setup fails, you’re out quickly, keeping losses small.
If it works, the upside is often asymmetric, as you’re positioned ahead of the next leg.
2) Psychology:
U&R setups take advantage of human behavior.
Sellers panic, shorts get trapped, and buyers who understand the structure accumulate at the low, forcing shorts to cover, fueling a leg higher.
The result is compressed volatility followed by expansion, giving a clean, high probability entry.
3) Alignment with Institutions:
By watching RS names and key pivots, you’re essentially tracking where the real money is accumulating.
When the stock reclaims the level, you’re entering in sync with supply/demand, not guessing at breakouts.
4) Simplicity + Repeatability:
Watch the low, wait for the reclaim, enter, risk at LOD.
That’s it.
No chasing, no overcomplicating.
It’s repeatable, definable, and scalable, exactly why it’s been my go to entry since the start of 2026.
Other examples from the past week:
$ASTS
$HUT
$IREN
$RKLB
$APLD
Every single one followed the same U&R logic:
undercut
reclaim
demand showing
tight stop
...and then let momentum do the work.
The market environment this year has been rewarding buyers who enter at these lows, while chasing breakouts has been brutal.
U&R setups give you defined risk, a clear structure, and the ability to stay ahead of momentum before it fully expresses itself.
If you want to trade with asymmetric opportunities in this market, learning to spot and execute U&R setups is a must!
President Trump says he had a “very good” call with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte focused on Greenland with follow-up talks set for Davos.
Like I said yesterday, this is political theater creating opportunity while being framed as Liberation Day fears.
This falls into @hkuppy's framework that we are in economic feudalism.
They are only going to act when the next generation voices get loud enough to change something.
In the meantime, boomer politicians will sacrifice their progeny for their own equity.
Where does this end? It ends in project Zimbabwe part deux.
What Trump is actually saying here is he will eventually cave and give the next generation free money.
The answer to the housing problem is going to come from the demand side so that boomers can keep their equity and feel wealthier on paper even tho it's going to come with a horde of inflation.
That's always the sacrifice politicians make instead of having free markets in a 4th turning.
