No announcements

Opinion on Markets: There wasn’t a lot planned in the markets and right now people are looking for direction in both markets and the main headline focus was on Gold and Silver. Now that we have earnings this week starting we might actually see some sentiment shift if they are good and it could be enough to see liquidity come back from precious metals.

The long boring chop fest continues with what looks to be a little Sunday sell off. A lot of attention on precious metals causing some FOMO and jealousy which is probably leading to some more selling. Weekend price action is usually all over the place so what will be more important is what happens during the week when the stock market is open.

Prediction: Think we probably sell off rest of Sunday, and probably some Monday before it rallies back Tuesday and we see some stocks do well and possibly some post FOMC pump happening.

Nothing really new to report, still just in the channel and doing a good job of making people impatient and bored.

Prediction: We’ve now established that $3,400 will be the important resistance to break (Supertrend resistance) and now we might see $2,600 get tested if we have a volatile week that doesn’t favor the stock market.

Hopefully it’s just weekend action and by the week it’s back above 3 trillion. This is a level that would be great to hold. Right now back below but unless there’s a big massive sell off this week it should hopefully finish around 3 trillion by the next newsletter.

Nuclear (NEW) - Department of energy will be investing billions into this sector, could see some stronger reactions this week or next

Rare Earth Minerals - The US government just took a 10% stake and invested billions in $USAR ( ▼ 4.31% ) which could ignite the rare earth metals sector.

Materials - (This includes metals, mining, and basic metals) - Showing a demand through precious metals and AI data centers needing copper.

Precious Metals & Mining: Still showing momentum

Energy - Continues to be a strong sector

$CHZ - Still like it for at least a 2x play. Looking like a pretty clean breakout and re-test. A strong close below the breakout line and I would consider closing it.

Closed Trades

$XRP - Stopped at -12%

$UNI - Closed at 34%

$ROSE - Stopped out at -20%

$CRV - Stopped out at -23%

TRACKING WITH GURU

Microcaps getting hit hard again as optimism and volume has been hard to find in crypto lately.

$COR, $BERRY, $PAPPLE, $PROOF and $GURU

This could be arguably one of the bigger weeks we’ve had in a while. We have FOMC and major stock earnings this week. Including Powell press conference and PPI numbers on Friday. This might explain some of the de-risking and maybe people worried about the markets and going to Gold/Silver. There’s also a chance at a government shutdown to add fuel to the fire so it could be quite the week.

$USAR (NEW) - Will be a hyped play come Monday and I think it’s fine chasing hype after the US announced that they will take a 10% stake in the company. We’ve seen insane runs on $LAC and $INTC after this happened so if history repeats we should be able to ride it up to the target or higher even after a big Monday open during a volatile week.

OPEN TRADES

$FLNC - Currently up 55%, high of 60%

$TGT - Currently up 10%, high of 14%

CLOSED TRADES

$CROX - Closed at 6%

$SABR - Closed at -11%

$CAN- Closed at 111%

$DRD - Closed at 62%

$ROOT - Closed at -4.5%

$NGVC - Closed at -6.1%

$TGT - Closed at -12%

Up as much as 14%, still sitting at 10%. Still like it for either gap to get filled.

Keeps on going up. Nice chart and good stock. Earnings coming up February 4th.
