If she could. But she can’t.

In my post on Friday I was talking about the possible rally setup on Crypto and, while Crypto has gone down over the weekend, the rally setup has improved. It looks fragile though, and would rapidly fall in quality with a significant decline from here.
In the meantime, Trump was interviewed yesterday and was talking about further tariffs he was looking at against overseas trade partners. He was asked whether these policies might trigger a recession and said it was possible while seeming very relaxed about that prospect. This was not encouraging for equities and is fuelling further speculation that the current bull markets in Crypto and equities may now be over. I’m wondering more about that too but we’ll see how this develops.

I was puzzled mightily at EFA’s strength last week, with the worldwide equity ETF hitting LIFETIME HIGHS on Friday. It made zero sense. None. Zilch. Today, however, it is acting properly, and it has completed an island reversal gap. This sucker is doomed, but now I feel like I’ve missed the boat. So……….poo!

I was a little hesitant to add a new short position at these depressed prices, but the long-term pattern of Seagate (STX) is compelling. I am now long September $90 puts.
