Good morning from Sundance. The lighting’s wild, the scenery is beautiful, and the market? Well… the signal turned negative three days ago, and it’s been bleeding off ever since.
We’ve got two major catalysts this week—and yeah, April 2nd may be my birthday, but more importantly, it’s Liberation Day (whatever that means, we’ll figure it out together). Today, though, we’re diving into what’s really moving this market—and what you need to be watching as we head deeper into Q2.
Key Takeaways:
The Signal Turned Negative—Here’s What That Means
- We called the shift last Wednesday, and since then? Markets have been under pressure.
- That inflation number was ugly, and traders are finally starting to price it in.
Two Big Events on Deck This Week
- One you already know about—April 2nd is circled on the calendar.
- The second? We’re going to break it down and talk positioning ahead of it.
Live from Sundance
- Broadcasting from the mountains, heading to Beaver County later, but first—let’s dissect where this market is headed.
- Because location changes, but the strategy doesn’t.
How to Trade This Breakdown
- Weakness is spreading—but is this a dip to buy or something deeper?
- We’ll look at risk-off signals, setups, and how to manage capital through volatility.
Markets are shifting fast. Stay focused, stay flexible, and let’s break it all down before we hit the road.
Until next time,
Garrett Baldwin
