Preface to all four parts: I am locked and loaded for CPI week. I have 43 equities in my Bear Pen, 23 of which I am long puts (expiring anywhere from June 2023 through January 2025). In parts 1 and 2 I will share my “live” positions, and in parts 3 and 4 will be the other charts in which I have no position, either because they aren’t quite as compelling or because I simply have no buying power left! I have used the watermark for the charts so it’s very plain to see what you’re looking at.
