First off…breathe…the title is a little baity. Sorry, I am a slimy influencer and thats what we do 🤷🏻♂️
Now, I have stated several times…this is NOT an investors market, in my opinion. It is a traders market at best. We also have not been going heavy with any positions…many of them are starter test positions to see if the strategy that normally returns healthy profit, is working or not. Some of our positions are up… some are down.
The Tariffs came in higher than expected. I suppose we should have expected the unexpected based off recent trends of the current administration. Regardless…the markets did not like it after market close. We went down Monday and Tuesday, then up all day today as forecasted…and of course they did the tariff announcement post market. We are seeing some healthy pullbacks in Futures, Bitcoin, and I suspect the VIX once trading resumes.
When our strategy is not performing the way it normally does…WE GO TO CASH.
I am not saying to run and panic sell everything. Not that I legally can anyway as I am not a financial advisor….but I will be objectively looking at positions. Deciding what is not worth holding onto. AND CUTTING THEM.
We need capital for when the market DOES work per our strategy. Don’t get mad at me…I do not control the markets…just ebb and flow with them.
We will have more opportunities in the future. But until that VIX comes down…and stays down…PROTECT YOURSELF.
Thanks for stopping by 👍
