📊 WEEKLY RECAP

This week in the US stock market was a tale of two halves: strong momentum early on with the S&P 500 chasing a lengthy winning streak, followed by a sharp reversal on Friday.

Stronger-than-expected May jobs data (172k added private sector mostly) sparked concerns over persistent inflation and potential Fed rate hikes, sending Treasury yields higher and triggering a heavy selloff in tech and semiconductor stocks. The Nasdaq was hit hardest, while the Dow showed more resilience earlier in the week.

Closing prices on Friday, June 5:
- S&P 500: ~7,384 (down ~2.6% on the day)
- Dow Jones: ~50,867 (down ~1.4%)
- Nasdaq: ~25,709 (down ~4.2%)

Overall, the major indices finished the week lower, snapping recent streaks amid profit-taking in AI-related names, inflation fears, potential rate hikes, and AI concerns.

I TRULY hope some of you ate like motherf*ckers today. That is why I continued to bring up how much returns were on just the contract we opened this morning.

ONE day can change your week, your month, your year, your life. Never take a day off. 💯🫡

Have a great weekend and enjoy some well-deserved rest boys!

Let's level up together. No excuses. 🚀🙏

🚨 MAJOR MARKET UPDATE: THE PDT RULE IS HISTORY 🚨

The trading landscape completely changes tomorrow, June 4th. The financial barriers holding back everyday traders are officially being dismantled.

If you are serious about capitalizing on market volatility without fighting outdated restrictions, here is exactly what you need to know about the new framework:

The $25,000 Minimum is GONE: The restrictive $25,000 minimum equity requirement for day trading has been officially removed.

The Baseline Entry: While the heavy PDT barrier is gone, the standard $2,000 minimum required under Reg T still applies to margin accounts.

No More Trade Counting: You will no longer be labeled a "Pattern Day Trader" just for executing trades. The arbitrary 4-trade limit is dead.

Dynamic Risk Monitoring: Instead of couting trades, your account will be monitored in real-time throughout the trading day to ensure adequate equity is maintained relative to your actual, active positions.

Margin Call Relief: EM (Equity Maintenance) and DT (Day Trading) margin calls are non-applicable under this new structural framework.

⚡ What This Means For You

The playing field just leveled. Capital efficiency is back in the hands of the trader, but discipline remains the ultimate edge. Trade smart, manage your risk dynamically, and execute with precision.

We are entering a new era of market access. Let's get to work.

The solo hustle is a rite of passage. 🙏🚀

There is an undeniable power in knowing you can enter the trenches alone, outwork the room, and build something from absolute scratch using nothing but your own grit and discipline.

Winning by your own hand is a massive accomplishment, and it proves you have the foundation required to lead.

But if we are being completely honest, the lone-wolf mentality has a ceiling 🤷‍♂️.

True scale demands a collective 💯.

You can run fast alone, but you can only go far with a powerhouse team. Moving from a successful operator to an unstoppable force requires surrounding yourself with a solid circle of like-minded, driven individuals who share the same vision, demand excellence, and push you to elevate.

When you align with people who possess the same hunger and work ethic, your ex*****on doesn't just double—it multiplies exponentially.

Building a legacy isn't a solo sport. Find your tribe, lock in, and build something massive.

🚀 Morning Mindset Reset 🚀

Every champion trader you admire didn’t wake up “motivated” — they woke up **disciplined**.

The market doesn’t reward feelings. It rewards consistency, risk management, and the ability to execute when your emotions are screaming the opposite.

Today is another opportunity to choose growth over comfort.

To lead your family by example.

To become the version of yourself your future self will thank you for.

Small daily decisions compound into legendary results. Protect your mindset. Protect your capital. Protect your time.

You weren’t born to follow the crowd — you were Chozen to build something greater.

📉 GLD (GOLD ETF) 📉

📊 Trend & Momentum:

• Aggressive Sell-off: GLD is experiencing a sharp breakdown, with the price currently at $419.48, dropping nearly 1.81% overnight.

• EMA Crosses: The price has sliced through all major exponential moving averages, including the EMA50 ($429.36) and EMA200 ($431.39). A "Death Cross" (short-term EMAs crossing below the EMA200) appears imminent, signaling a potential long-term trend shift to the downside.

📊 Key Levels:

• Immediate Support: The price is testing a critical support zone near $417.81. A failure to hold this level could trigger a move toward the May lows around $413.28.

• Resistance: Any relief rally will face heavy resistance at the $425.19 level (previous support-turned-resistance) and the high-volume node near $430–$434.

📊 Volume & Context:

• Volume Profile: The large distribution visible on the left suggests that the $430 area was a massive accumulation/distribution zone. Breaking below this "Value Area" is highly bearish as it traps buyers at higher prices.

📊 Macro Factor:

• Broader market data from May 15, 2026, suggests this weakness is tied to a strengthening USD and safe-haven outflows ahead of the Trump-Xi summit.

• Summary: The chart is exhausted. Until GLD can reclaim and hold the $425 level, the path of least resistance remains lower.

The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country.”

— Edward Bernays, Propaganda (1928)

That quote matters more today than ever.

Because most people do not realize how heavily their thoughts, emotions, and decisions are shaped by constant information flow.

Trump tweets.

Breaking news.

Fear headlines.

Bullish headlines.

Economic narratives.

War.

Peace.

Every single day people are emotionally whipped around by information designed to capture attention.

And markets know this.

That does not mean headlines do nothing. Of course they matter in the short term.

A tweet can move oil. A headline can spike bonds. A rumor can send the dollar flying for a day or two.

But none of that changes the primary trend.

That’s the part most people miss.

The truth in markets is that leadership matters more than narratives.

You will almost never hear me talking about aggressively shorting a market while semiconductors are leading.

Why?

Because leadership tells you the truth.

Dow Theory originally used transports and industrials as confirmation tools. The logic was simple: if industrial companies were strong and transportation companies were strong, then economic activity was likely healthy because goods were being produced and shipped together.

That concept still matters today.

But in my opinion, semiconductors have become the modern version of that signal.

We live in a technology driven economy. Semiconductors sit at the center of AI, cloud infrastructure, defense systems, consumer electronics, data centers, automobiles, and basically every modern growth industry on earth.

When semiconductors lead, the market usually follows.


And right now they are leading on almost every timeframe.

WEEKLY OUTLOOK

Tech/AI leadership continues, with the Nasdaq and growth stocks outperforming.**

Markets are climbing a "wall of worry" but momentum remains firmly bullish.

Technical Outlook for the Week Ahead (May 12-16):

- SPY & S&P 500: Extended but bullish. Recent records show strong momentum with higher highs. Watch for consolidation or minor pullback to recent breakout levels (~7,300-7,350 zone on S&P) as potential support. Resistance near 7,400-7,450. Trend remains up as long as it holds above the 20-day EMA.

- QQQ: Stronger relative performance with significant outperformance YTD. Overextended from its 20-day EMA (~7% deviation noted in some analysis), which could invite volatility or a healthy pause. Key support in the 20-day/50-day EMA area; bulls control the trend above recent lows.

Upcoming Catalysts: Earnings from more tech/semiconductor names (e.g., Applied Materials), any further US-Iran developments or Trump-Xi related news, and ongoing focus on inflation/oil. Volatility could rise on news flow, but the primary trend favors dips as buying opportunities in this momentum-driven environment.

Bull market is still well intact with tech leadership. Stay aligned with the uptrend on **SPY/QQQ** while managing risk around elevated valuations and geopolitical headlines ( mixed with normal intraday supply/ demand).

Think Smart. Trade Smarter
