Hey, there. Welcome to todays Rude Awakening!

Its a strong open this morning, with some BIG changes that occurred in the market late yesterday.

Lets take a look at what caused this change, and see how we can use the market choppiness to our advantage...

Trump Tweet Spurs Huge Market Change

Late yesterday, a Tweet came out from President Trump that expressed his unwillingness to take part in any more stimulus negotiations until after the upcoming election.

Up to that point, the market was in a nice upward trend and had a very bullish breakout a mere 30 minutes before the president's Tweet.

But after the social media update, the futures market bottomed out very quickly.

It has been slowly progressing throughout the evening and into the morning, but as you can see in todays video, we now have a lot of chop going on.

When we look at our analysis, theres been a changing of the guard, with no real direction at this time. People are scrambling to change positions and get into new overall trades.

Amazon Drops

Just yesterday, Amazon dropped by $100 per share, putting it down at about $3,100.

Now, if youre new to Amazon, that decline is going to shake you and youre going to want to pivot fast.

But, if you got into Amazon early this year when it was at a $1,600 level, you know that this drop is just a blip on the radar.

Take Advantage Of The Market With This Proven Tesla Trade

Today, we have a trade thats worked well in the past and will help you make the best use of todays market.

Tesla has come into a nice trading range. We have support around the 340 level, and resistance around the 480 level.

This matters because Tesla has an earnings announcement coming out on October 28th, which makes this a prime time to make a move.

We want to make a trade that will help us take advantage of the high implied volatility in Tesla, but also the specified trading range that it has.

And we want to do all of this prior to Teslas earnings announcement at the end of this month.

The United States controls the world’s financial plumbing. Iran sits beside the world’s most important oil chokepoint. Now each side is trying to weaponize what it controls.

Oil is a thing. Copper is a thing. Gold is a thing. A 20-year Treasury is a promise. In August, the market made its preference painfully obvious.

The stock market sees an AI boom. The credit market smells smoke. And if you know where to look, you can see exactly how nervous the people lending the money have become.

The US Treasury is trying to suppress the cost of borrowing. The new Fed Chairman has spent his first months in office insisting markets should set prices themselves. Something has to give.

Nobody is moving the New York Stock Exchange to Dallas tomorrow. That misses the point. Wall Street is doing something more cautious and potentially more consequential: building a second harbor before it needs one.
