If you're new to the page, hit that like, subscribe, and notification bell. And finally, anything I say is not a suggestion for you to buy, hold, or sell. And I'll be in the ATL this weekend, and I have some free tickets for you guys if you're interested in meeting up. Let's get right into it. Stock market uh today, S&P 500, Nasdaq rise after cooler than expected CPI. You guys know we've been talking about consumer price index. Those numbers came out, and they were cooler than expected, okay? We have a PPI coming out tomorrow. It does sound funny when I say PPI. You know, I P P. But anyway, PPI is coming out tomorrow morning an hour before the stock market opens, okay? Now, it has potential just like CPI has. Remember, consumer price index the rate of change it measures the rate of change of goods and services um um that we consume. And then PPI producers price index is a gauge that measures the rate of change of things produced before we consume them. I'm going to keep saying that because we have new people here every day, and that's the way I get down. All right, so let's look at it. Um today we could see that the S&P is up 29 points, and the Nasdaq is 233 points. And we could see that it was a fight. It was an absolute fight. We actually had a downtrend right here, almost a half a percent, and then it absolutely just kind of came up really nicely. Uh at the time of shooting this, we have 30 minutes before the market closes. And what I'm going to do rather than tell you uh what the CPI was, I'm going to play it for you right now. >> Buy at the CME 4 [music] about 4 6 on the 10-year now, Rick. Yeah, about 4 6. Here we go. This is our June release of the consumer price index. Expecting a headline number to be negative -1/10 of a percent. This is four times more negative, -4/10 of a percent. That would be the biggest negative drop that we've seen since 420, since uh uh basically COVID timing, which really affected, of course, all of the inflation data points. So, that goes back um basically six-year low. And if we look at the CPI month over month on the core, also under expectations, comes in at goose egg, zero. Zero would be the smallest amount. It would equal Jan of '21 to find a smaller change or more negative change or -1/10 of a percent, that's May of 2020. And if we look at the year-over-year numbers, year-over-year headline 3.5, 3/10 less than expected, much less than the 4.2 in the rearview mirror. That would be the lightest since March of this year when it was 3.3. Year-over-year core 2.6, 2/10 less than expectations, 3/10 less than the rearview mirror. 2.6 equals March, 2.5 brings you to February of this year. Quickly, if we look at the indices, uh 1913 this started CPI, and the index comes in at 333, 333.95. That actually goes back a month, it's not a new high. Usually, every month we make a new high. So, that's very good news. And if you look at the core index started 1957, uh very similar 336.06, a little bit lighter than the historic high of last month. It's nice to break the chain. Usually, these indices make new all-time highs every single month. What have the market done? You know what the market's doing. Interest rates moving lower. Four and a quarter was a two-year, now it's a 4.17. Uh and if we look at the 10-year as Joe pointed out, it was at 4.60, down three basis points. Now, add another seven, make it minus 10 because it's at 4.53. We see that the pre-opening equities and the Dow futures have turned positive. So, this really is a big deal. And of course, we know how much of the Fed's ultimate decision may be riding on this number. Joe, back to you. >> The biggest CPI drop since COVID. No one, and I mean no one, expected that, okay? And now let's see what PPI. Uh so, it was a big gamble. I um I had some buy alerts in Money Moves, and I just told people I don't know what what the print is going to be. No one expected that. Of course, you're going to have that one person says, "I knew it." Sure. All right. So, what else is going on? The market ran up, and but it's actually cooled off a little bit. Uh we have here this breaking news breaking news. US strike Iran before Hormuz Strait's blockade restarts. So, the war is ramping back up again. We could see here Dubai, United Arabs, uh Empress AP. US President Donald Trump uh backtracked on plans to charge ships for using the Straits of Hormuz, all right? Uh saying Tuesday that the Gulf countries would instead invest in the United States. I wonder how. Another wave of US strikes on Iran and Iranian attacks on shipping and American allies left an internment peace deal in tatters. Okay? Uh internment peace deal in tatters. It it it the deal is done. There is no deal. All right, the fighting ramps up. It just It's just not going good. And um you know, president is is irritated. Uh you got a lot of people that's irritated with this war. No one can say we're going to go on a war and we're going to be done in 3 days, 4 days. That's just foolishness, guys. No one, and I mean no one other than God, knows when a war will be over. It's like Mike Tyson said, "Everybody has a plan until you get hit in the face." In your mind, you're going, "I'm going to go over there and smack them around and they're going to lay down and they're going to say, 'Uncle.'" Okay, let's see how that goes. All right, that's my little dig, all right? Let's not go there. All right, so let's go uh let's look at some of the stock that we were looking at. And uh some of them have performed well. Um and some of them performed well and cooled off. So, uh right here in front of you guys, let's do this. Uh let's look at D Ram. Okay? All right. It uh it's up 6% but it was actually up a little higher earlier today. Um so, if you did buy dips or if you still have some, you are doing well uh to hold some. Now, the one that was, you know, I keep saying I'm I'm not going to talk about this anymore. I shouldn't have said that. This was up, you know, as much as 11% earlier when I looked at it. It could have been up more than that. Uh it's nothing for this to be up 14, 15, 18% when the market goes up. But, it's actually starting to cool off and this is a 3x uh, semiconductor. I know uh, on the other day I said DRAM, uh, I misspoke. You guys know it's right there in the name. It's memory, okay? It's memory, all right? RAM, like in your computer. And this is an ETF that is um, actually still up for the week. But, for the month we are down 14% okay? Uh, ticker symbols like this, not just ticker symbols, industries like this. And let's go to IONQ and quantum computing um, just have been underperforming. We had a bump and then a cool off, right? We also talked about um, what was it? Um, um, oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. We talked about USAAR. Remember? That is up nicely. And uh, here you got Righetti up 5%, D-Wave. So, you got some of these coming up uh, pretty decent. We also talk about ticker symbol OKLO, Oaklo, okay? Why am I bringing these up? I believe in these personally. Anything I say is not a suggestion for you to buy, hold, or sell. I believe in all three of these stock long-term. And I look for the sell-offs or the dips to actually simply buy more. So, tomorrow morning we have more data. This morning for most uh, options traders was not a morning to invest. I told the money movers, "Look, the people that are sitting on the sideline are the smartest people in the room on today. Sometimes the best trade you could take is no trade at all, right? So, I want you to look at yesterday's video. I talked about the importance of holding something long if you have a high high conviction in it. If you believe in the future in it, it doesn't matter. I have a lot of stuff that's red in my portfolios, but my overall portfolios, we are killing the S&P 500, okay? So, that's what you have to look at. Yeah, there's going to be some losers in there. Anybody that always win win win and they say they are, they're not telling you the truth. So, you have to make the decision. You got to look at stock like ticker symbol MU. You got to look at stock like ticker symbol uh Nvidia. How how they have highs and lows on the way, okay? And if you sold every time it was red, you would have lost out on a ton of money. I'm talking about long-term good pick stock. I'm not talking about just penny stock. Speaking of penny stock, speaking of low-cap stock um POET was one of the ones that I spoke about yesterday, and it's up nicely today, up a nice 8%. So, it was one of the ones I called on yesterday and we nibbled more on POET on yesterday because it's in that range that I like to buy, okay? Uh it was yesterday. All right, guys. So, listen. PPI tomorrow morning, we're going to see how it goes. Remember, this is still a lot of data, and the market really likes to take 48 hours to decipher all of the information. Then we had the Fed speaking this morning, and he didn't move the market much, okay? He just didn't. All right? He spoke on the hill. Um I don't know how long. It was long. It was hours. It was a dog and pony show at the beginning. You guys know. You guys know some of those people need to be in a senior citizens home or with their families. Nothing wrong with being old. We're all going to get old. They just need to be with their loved ones and not making uh decisions for us. All right? There's another dig I got in. Okay, guys.
