Fear & Greed Index👇

  • Current read is 64 on the fear greed index vs 71 last week.

  • Market Fearful = Potential Opportunity/Deals. (buy calls/sell puts)

  • Market Greedy = Potential Over Valuation. (buy puts/sell calls)

  • So the market is now in the greedy category after a massive bounce off of the April lows.

  • Remember, I like to be bullish when there is extreme fear & bearish when extreme greed.

  • So right now, I am kinda neutral & that is ok!

  • Opportunity will come. BE PATIENT!

Current Interest Rates👇

  • 30 year fixed mortgage rate climbs to 7.08% Today vs 6.96% last Sunday.

  • 10 year treasury bond yield climbs to 4.50% Today, vs 4.44% last Sunday.

  • 2 year treasury bond yield flat at 3.99% Today, vs 3.99% last Sunday.

  • Interest rates increased a little this week, which is kinda bad for the stock market usually….

  • As interest rates rise, stocks become less attractive because bonds become more attractive.

  • Also, stocks rose which also makes them less attractive cause things are more expensive.

  • REMEMBER, MONEY ALWAYS WANTS TO FIND THE BEST RISK ADJUSTED RETURN.

  • Bonds are becoming more attractive…

  • Overall, this is not good for stocks & the economy, but I do expect rates to fall in the coming quarters as inflation continues to cool which will slowly make bonds less attractive.

WHAT ACTUALLY MATTERS NOW👇

I am going to keep today’s newsletter VERY simple.
There is so much noise in the investing world and over complication so I will try to be the guy that simplifies and only focus on the needle movers.

MARKET VALUATIONS:
The whale in the room right now is market valuations.
The S&P500 is trading at a PE ratio not seen since the dot com crash.
Yes, we all know what happened then.

So are we in a bubble now?
No.
But this is the time to be careful and not have too much leverage/margin.

Can the market keep going up?
Yes, of course.
But the more disconnected we get from the fundamentals, the more likely stocks will correct to the downside.

INTEREST RATES:
I’ve said it hundreds of times and I will say it again…
Interest rates are gravity on the stock market.
As rates climb, that puts downward pressure on the stock market.
Why? Because bond yields climb when rates go up.
Bonds are the “risk free” rate of return.
As the yield on the “risk free ROI” goes up, that makes investors pull money from the stock market and put it into bonds.
This is something to keep an eye on.

TRUMP:
Trump loves to post on his truth social & X accounts about whatever is on his mind.
The things he posts are often major catalysts for the stock market and lots of volatility is the end product.
So at a time the valuations are questionable & rates are questionable, Trumps "negative” tweets often push the market lower.
Yes, he is trying to get deals done, but the way he does it the market doesn’t like.
TBH, I see this volatility as opportunity. You should too.

4th INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION:
In my opinion, the Industrial Revolution we are having right now is going to be HUGE.
Tech & AI is now on the next level and it’s only going to get better.
Humanoid robots, self driving cars, AI agents… This is just the beginning.
I have a 3 month old son and I think every day how much different the world is going to look for him vs me growing up.
I also think about 24/7 what companies are going to be the winners & what ones will be the losers.
Because this is going to be HUGE.
My current portfolio allocation now is big on tech ETFs, Tesla, AMD, Nvidia, Meta, Amazon, plus some others.
I also use options to magnify returns and generate monthly cash flow.
So the key for this 4th Industrial Revolution is this…
CAPITALIZE!
Do not let this opportunity pass you by.
Some of the companies are bubbles for sure, but some are not.
I truly feel the next 5 years are going to be transformative and many regular people will become millionaires.

OK LET’S PUT IT ALL TOGETHER:
So valuations are a little high
Interest rates are a little high.
Volatility is a little high.
But the massive Tech & Ai revolution is just getting started.
So what do we do?
Well, as valuations get lofty, I reduce risk in my portfolio.
As valuations get cheaper, I add risk in my portfolio.
On top of that, I do what I have always said.
Invest in the base portfolio as long as we are not in bubble valuation territory (which we are not)
Buy individual companies trading near intrinsic value with a moat, pricing power, durable competitive advantage, and you are ok to hold for a few years at a minimum.
Once we find ultra compelling set ups, use options to magnify returns.
Simple!

MY HARD JOURNEY TO FINANCIAL FREEDOM👇

So about 10 years ago I heard someone on YouTube talking about a get rich quick scheme...

2x your money in a week? Sign me up!

I got all the day trading screens, told all my friends, and told my wife to be ready for a life of working 20 minutes a day and retiring on the beach somewhere.

Sounds amazing right?

That's what I thought!

So I immediately got started and to be honest, it was going good for a few weeks.

Then something bad kinda happened...

Week 4 of doing this "strategy",  the market experienced unexpected downside volatility and I got wiped out...

I got smoked...
(This was in 2015 btw...)

As expected, I was devastated & said "screw the stock market I'm never doing this again"

But then a few months later I was scrolling through YouTube and landed on a Warren Buffett video. The video was talking about how Warren does stock options in a way that generates consistent cash flow in a low risk way.

THEN I HAD A LIGHTBULB MOMENT

For years they have been telling me to buy the hot stock, chase it higher, use margin, use options, and hope that the stock continues higher to make money...

But this is actually the EXACT REASON and EXACT PROBLEM as to why I failed to scale my portfolio.

All these years of failures wasn’t necessarily my fault... It was because I didn't have a system that is actually proven to work... No wonder I was struggling!

Once I realized the key is to buy undervalued companies with amazing growth prospects when the sentiment is very low, I started to scale very fast.

And it’s not just me… take a look at what all of the other people just like you said in the reviews section above have done with this strategy.

Ever since that YouTube video I watched June 19, 2015 my life has forever been changed.

Since then, I have tested countless strategies, countless systems, spent thousands of hours researching and studying what actually works to find the best balance of risk & consistent strong returns.

Even to this day, I continue to refine my strategy. (even though it's very dialed in... because a good investor is always learning and refining)

So what you are about to learn in this course + discord is a decade in the making of the EXACT system that scaled me to millions from nothing! 

I'm going to be completely honest, you're not going to 2x your money in a week, but you will scale to millions much faster than you ever would have thought possible.

So the course is going to teach you exactly how to implement my system into your portfolio immediately from day one.

But the best part of this system in my opinion is the Discord community.

You can come in and ask any questions you may have as you progress through the course, attend my zoom calls I do every week, see all of the trades I make in my million dollar account in real time, see the deep research I do on companies before I make trades, plus MUCH MORE.

So I designed the full package system that I wish was there when I needed it most...

I truly feel VERY confident this is going to completely change your life forever.

It already did for the many hundreds of people that went through this same exact system too!

So, once you click the button on this page to join, you'll be taken to a secure checkout page.

After you checkout, you need to IMMEDIATELY go into discord and see my market update from today to know EXACTLY what's going on and what I am looking at!

The best part about everything?
You get my course & discord all under one subscription so it's extremely simple!
