Crude bagholders out again tonight saying the market is rigged because its going down on no deal.
When CL gapped up 50% on the first day of the war it already priced in 99% of scenarios. The war is turning out very benign for energy supply which is why the smart money is dumping their CL at 90 before it goes back to 60.

US momo went from up 69% YTD in June, to being red on the year in under a month. Let that sink in
If you still have faith in momo nows the time to buy
One of the AI winers crowned by the market - SPX ex AI. The end users who get to enjoy the technology having invested basically nothing into it. As token prices decline, these companies have regularly made new highs, in contrary to both the s&p and nasdaq.

I think you can make money both long and short here.
But a sustainable breakout probably unlikely with positioning still rather full. Unless theres a real end to the Iran war, not just a truth social from Trump with no actual change from the Iranian side

Ppl are buying momo anchoring to old highs as reasomable price targets. The market has changed.

If there was a way to leverage a private investment in Anthropic this guy would probably be living on the streets lol.
