Today’s Heat Map👇

Friday January 17, 2025👇
Market went deep GREEN today as bond yields cool and earnings come in strong so far.
Earnings season kicks it up a gear next week, so there is lot’s I will be covering!
More on this below.
Fear & Greed Index For Today👇
28 Yesterday & 38 Today.
Market pumped today and pushed us to the right on the needle.
I feel that we are closer to 55 vs what this says, so kinda in balance.
Always keep your emotions in check on pumps & dumps!
Short term market movements are usually irrelevant.
Volatility is opportunity.
Be greedy when others are fearful.

Today’s Economic Updates👇
30 year fixed mortgage rate falls to 6.98% today vs 7.09% Yesterday.
10 year treasury bond yield flat at 4.61% today, vs 4.61% Yesterday.
2 year treasury bond yield climbs to 4.28% today, vs 4.24% Yesterday.
Next Week Is Big👇
Earnings & Interest rates are the 2 most important things when it comes to stocks.
We recently got CPI & PPI data, and now we are getting into the thick of it for earnings.
CPI/PPI data came in good, and that dropped the bond yields.
Stocks were happy about this.
Now we need to get through earnings season with strong numbers and strong guidance.
Usually every earnings season I comb through about 50 companies and listen to dozens of earnings calls.
It’s key to listen to calls from MANY different companies to get a good gauge on the economy and see what CEOs are seeing out here.
Here are the things I have my eyes on next week for earrings and economic news.

Current Thoughts In My Head👇
Market is a little lofty. (10% ish)
Earnings have been coming in strong so far which is what we need to support the elevated valuations.
I am not saying we are in a bubble, but things are just a little lofty.
Keep this is mind, we can just as easily sit at 10% under valued as we can sit right now at 10% over valued.
The market can even go down to be 20% under valued too or even more!
So that would be a 30% down swing.
Be prepared for all situations.
Do not get caught with your pants down like most people you see on social media.
I am an investor, not a speculator.

Words To Live By👇
Do not make plays to make plays.
ONLY make high margin of safety plays.
Do not buy something just cause the share price is going up
Continue to DCA into quality stocks/ETFs at good prices.
When you find undervalued companies, use options to magnify gains

👇Portfolio Thoughts
Amazing growth from 2018 to Current all off of a total contribution of $90,000.
That is over a 10x in 7 years!
I did this in a very low risk and conservative way.
I feel the market got a little stretched and this pull back is healthy.
If bond yields continue to climb, I expect pain in the markets to continue.
I will continue to find great investments / options plays that will pan out to explode the portfolio in the long run.
Month to month and even year to year volatility is irrelevant.
I see volatility as opportunity!
My goal is $5,000,000 in this account by 2030.
I see this as very achievable and if the market dips further, I will capitalize heavily, just like I did in 2022!
Stay the course and keep your emotions in check!
