Government Shutdowns: Politicians Think They Matter
Hey there, Gianni here. Politicians love to tell you how important they are. Makes you wanna throw up, honestly. I've traded through every government shutdown since 2013, and here's what I've learned: these people create drama because they think the world revolves around them. It doesn't. What actually happens to your money: 2013: Markets basically…
China's Tech Breakout Could Define Q4
Don here... I'm usually the guy warning you about crashes and volatility spikes. But Gianni has an interesting thesis that’s worth a listen. Chinese tech is breaking out. And the setup looks identical to US markets bottoming in April. A weak dollar plus continued rate cuts equals capital flowing to Asia. Most currency traders follow…
Why I almost got stopped out (and why that's good)
Hey there, Gianni here. The market was poking at my SOLZ position all day last week. We had a stop loss on a close below $20.80, and it kept teasing that level. "Hey, you gonna make a move?" - like my son calling my name while I'm trying to work. But we didn't get stopped…
Why The Inflation Crowd Is Missing The Real Money
Everyone keeps talking about inflation. I get it - the Fed's cutting rates, printing money again, and at some point inflation will probably return. But if you're using that as your trading thesis right now, you're missing where the actual money is being made. Here's the thing: you need to trade the market in front…
Knowing When to Push or Pull
Hello TheoTrader, Being away from home for several weeks isn't easy. Similar to trading certain setups, I have routines across different time frames. Certain things need to be done regularly. I grew up playing team sports like soccer and basketball. I was the odd man out in a real midwestern hockey town. All my friends…
The Mining Stock Gravy Train Just Left the Station
Hello TheoTrader, We're days away from Q4 in what's been a wild 2025 ride. I'm expecting Q4 to launch us into 2026 spectacularly. And today I want to review one of 2025's best trades...Mining stocks. Both gold and silver have crushed the S&P in 2025. Gold is having its best year in over four decades. …
I Just Did the Math on Every Bubble Since 1929.
Hey there, Gianni here. During the .com bubble, the NASDAQ gained 1,322% from its 1990 low to the March 2000 peak. If we repeated that performance from 2016's low of 4,267, the NASDAQ would hit 60,676 today. We're at 22,789. So when someone tells you we're in a bubble, show them that math. What Real…
Gianni Doubles Down
Don here... Gianni was dead wrong about precious metals. He expected a classic "buy the rumor, sell the news" selloff after the Fed cut rates last week. Instead, gold just smashed to new all-time highs while silver hit 14-year peaks. Even he admits it: "This is actually defying my own expectations." But he's not backing…
We're Living Through the Next Dot Com Bubble
We're living through a Great Tech Reset right now. And here's the kicker - the Fed is cutting rates into a period where tech earnings estimates aren't decreasing. They're expanding. The last time we saw this setup was the dot com bubble. Look, I know everyone's tired of dot com comparisons. But the data doesn't…
The Most Overlooked Opportunity Right Now
Every now and then, I like to remind readers that sentiment follows price, not the other way around. Which is why I'm more bullish on Solana than I've ever been. Back in April, I started pounding the table on Ethereum while everyone was calling it useless, too expensive, outdated. As it turns out, it's been…
