Zero DTE hits individual stocks (most traders have no clue)

Alright, Monday something big happens and most people are gonna get run over because they don't understand what zero DTE on individual stocks actually means. Tesla, Apple, NVIDIA - they're all getting same-day options now. Monday, Wednesday, Friday. Not just Fridays anymore. And here's what I LOVE -

Somewhere a 22-Year-Old Just Quit Journalism Forever

President said China has no windmills. A 22-year-old journalism student got assigned to fact-check that statement, realized they'd have to verify whether a country that produces twice our wind capacity actually has windmills, and promptly quit to find himself in the Darien Gap. I don't blame the kid

Why Everyone's Talking About Greenland When They Should Be Watching Japan

I didn't sleep last night. That was my own decision because I was too busy watching and trading Japan, which is something I do when things are getting gnarly. And as I said when I made my two-line prediction for 2026: my prediction for the markets is it's gonna get weird before it gets worse.

If You're Not in This Trade, You're Out of Your Mind

Hey, it’s Garrett. I'm sitting here in my Buffalo Bills jersey - the same one I've worn since we beat Jacksonville yesterday and won't take off until we win the Super Bowl - and I'll be honest with you, this morning rattled me. Jerome Powell criminal investigation. Credit card rate caps. I woke up t

Why I'm Going Long the Stock That Nearly Destroyed the Financial System

Hey, it’s Garrett. They just announced a $200 billion mortgage-backed securities purchase. Not through the Fed. Through the government directly. Which means we're back to money printing. Full stop. And I know exactly which stock wins when this happens. The play everyone's afraid to make I'm going lo

Why I Don't Fix Broken Trades (And Neither Should You)

I'm sitting here down 80% on two trades, and my inbox is filling up with the same question: "Don, what are you gonna do?" The answer is absolutely nothing. My XLF position is getting crushed. Silver trade looks like it's headed for the graveyard. And I'm not lifting a finger to "save" either one. He

The Metal Shortage Reality Check

Hey, it’s Garrett. Silver just crossed $81. Gold's sitting above $4500. To meet the green energy goals that keep getting pushed - whether it's this administration or the next one or the one after that, because these policies swing back and forth like pendulums - we need to increase production of 16
