What's happened to Twitter X? Trump Failed Assassination Attempt Update. Market Update!

Twitter Still Sucks 

 I know, I probably sound like a broken record at this point - complaining about twitter -, but it seems as though an army of bots, has been unleashed in order to hijack the Twitter/ X algorithms.    

Example: This morning, "covid" is trending, but when you click on the topic there's nothing but trolls hijacking the thread/topic, so you wouldn't even know that Joe Biden's Whitehouse is claiming he has covid again. That's right! Joe Biden doesn't have Dementia, or Parkinson's, he has Covid again. What is this, the 4th, or 5th time... ? Just yesterday the fake news was seen quoting Joe Biden as saying that if he were, "diagnosed with a disease", he would consider dropping out, and today - low-and-behold  he's diagnosed with Covid! Yahtzee! You can't make this shit up, but I digress. 

Why is Joe Biden even in my twitter x timeline, when I've already muted and blocked him? IDK

 

Example #2 

Last week I noticed several Elon Musk (parody) accounts popping up in my timeline, and for every one I muted, and blocked, another one would pop up. 

Tying this all together: This morning, I can't help but notice that one of the same bot accounts I blocked last week, is being propagated by many more bot accounts today.

2 Examples:  

 


Trump Assassination Attempt Update 

You may recall in my last update that if heads didn't roll, then I was going to assume that this was just another psychological operation #PsyOp, or even a False Flag. 

At that time I hadn't had enough time to piece together all the available information. 

I have since determined that this was in fact an Attempt on Trump's life: 

1. Trump was actually grazed by a bullet to his right ear.  

The video evidence (below) convinced me, given the fact that the line of sight does indeed match up, with Trump's injuries.  




It is indeed miraculous... 

Now this becomes a case of, "who done it?"  

1. The intelligence community was made aware of an assassination plot, or threat from of all places Iran. So where was all this extra security? MIA 

I have heard unsubstantiated reports that his normal security detail was not present at the Pennsylvania rally, and all you have to do is look at the video to determine that these people were at the very least, poorly trained. One of the 3 female officers is apparently unable to even properly holster her weapon! 



 In fact several Democrats have been pushing to get Trump's SS protection removed. 

‘Deeply evil’: Democrat Congressman tried to remove Trump’s Secret Service protection

We also have at least 1 witnesses who alerted to the shooters presence, all of which seem to have been ignored.

Warning the footage below is excruciating to watch! 


Did someone give a stand down order? 

I have a lot more evidence that this looks like another inside job, and even more questions 

I'm sure we'll never get to the bottom of it, since the news refuses to report even half of the evidence I've already presented... 

Market Update: 

We basically just saw a little shake out or rebalancing, ahead of July Options expiration, but we hardly ever see the market correct in July. I want to say never, but probably more like 90%.

I did however warn folks not to be long this market.    



Take Care, and enjoy the rest of your summer.

Reviewing Last Week's Superfecta BOX, as well as Saturday's Apparent Assassination Attempted on President Trump

 I don't know which is harder to believe; that I would get 4 calls right, in a single week, or that a would-be assassin would be able to slip past the Secret Service and other security - with a long gun - only for the alleged shooter to miss the perfect shot, from within 200 yards? 

Here's my first take on Saturday's events as details began to come out:

Here's my final conclusion reached before the Sunday shows even had a chance to covere it: 

Of course heads won't roll, because - just as most of what we see on television - this just looks like another - in a long string of - Psychological Operation (s) (aka #Psyop) designed in order to distract, and confuse populations. Just what the purpose of this event is, I will leave that up to your imagination, but you can search my recent tweet history for some clues....   

Reviewing Last Week's Superfecta

What is a Superfecta Box. It's a Horse betting term for picking the top 4 winners, in any order. 

Last week's winning calls:

1. Tesla - called out as a sell (short)  
2. $YEN reversal - ahead of BOJ capitulation (intervention)  
3. Last weeks magnificent run in Small Caps 

An excerpt from that blog: 



4. And Finally: Friday's magnificent rally - this was after we saw the rug pulled on tech stocks the day before.... 

 

Dow rises more than 200 points, touches new record above 40,000: Live updates CNBC


That's all I got for today. 

Enjoy the rest of your weekend,

Time to declare victory again - this time on 3X Leveraged $SOX Bull $SOXL

 Time to declare victory again - this time on 3X Leveraged $SOX Bull $SOXL  

This was another easy call, as it was opposite of what CNBC Fast Money was calling for: 

If you bought it at $52.50, and sold it at today's high (around $64) that's a gain of over 20%. 

The great contrarians at Fast Money also called for China to rally, back in June, and I made a killing selling that fleeting rally.


Speaking of bear markets: 

You never hear about the stealth bear market in Oil & Gas drillers, being reported.  

$XOP S&P Oil & Gas Exploration & Production - 60 min. chart. - 20% off the recent highs 

 


 That's all for now. Enjoy the summer break, while it lasts, because it's bound to be a crazy fall. 

Take care, AA

Twitter Sucks so bad; I'm - once again - thinking about Moving to Truth Social!

Twitter Sucks So Bad; I'm thinking about Moving to Truth Social 

You don't have to look very far into who's actually in charge of the new Twitter/ X platform; to figure out what the agenda is; political correctness in the name of "safety", over freedom of speech. 

That may sound innocent enough, until you find that words like "safety" are only code words for ever increasing political correctness that has permeated the internet.      

Elon Musk’s X has a new "safety leader", nine months after predecessor left the social media platform - ap 

 CEO Linda Yaccarino used to work for NBC, and Turner!  Source nypost 

And as if all this wasn't bad enough, even after paying for premium service on Twitter I can't seem to get any service regarding getting set up for a subscription service. Yes, I have valuable content to sell, but even after paying to get set up for a subscription service, and getting approved, not once, but twice, I'm not able to get any help, and I'm not the only one....

 30 min ago: 


Last I heard from Twitter support on June 28th: 

Hi there! We're a small team and are doing our best to review these applications in a timely manner. Once we have an update about your account, we'll reach out to you immediately. Thank you in advance for your patience! X Support Team

The final straw: A week or 2 ago - just before the first presidential debate - the algos on Twitter changed, and I began to be bombarded with content that can only be described as paid for by the Democrat party, and other content I have no interest in.  

I'm also being constantly bombarded by what can only be described as adult content.  


You'd think the AI would be smart enough to know, I'm not interested in singles ads, or internet whores, after being on the platform for nearly 15 years, but no....  

Truth Social 

To be honest Truth Social is slow. I mean it's really slow, and I only have a few followers over there,  but I think it may be better to tweet in a vacuum than be continually bombarded with crap.  

Market Update:  

I just got back from vacation last week, and seeing typical holiday trading...

Even so, I'm still able to find some profitable trades in an otherwise sideways market. 

Of course the lame stream media continues to point to new all time highs on the Nasdaq, and even the CNBC Fast Money crew had the nerve to point to new highs on the Nasdaq, on Friday. This after they chose to pump casino stocks, after calling a "bearish reversal". 

The Nasdaq, along with the rest of the hopelessly rigged tech sector can only manage to break out to new highs on very light holiday volume. 


I predicted these new highs and profited off them, so I can't complain... yet I'm irritated at the lack of credibility offered by the financial fake news. 

Most the broader market continues to be rigged higher, in order to help Joe Biden; I not only predicted this in 2023, but I've gone out of my way to explain the process... and continue to tweet on the subject:



After calling out several good trades including the major Top on Bitcoin, Silver, and Natural Gas, and more recently long trades in $SOXL, and Gold miners, I haven't received even so much as a thankyou, so I just don't see much interest by the trading community on Twitter/ X.

To give you some idea..: $BITI (the leveraged bitcoin bear) is up 25% since calling the reversal.     

Instead there seems to more interest in nonsensical tweets like the one embedded below, and the occasional 50% pop in a meme stock:   

To wrap things up

This is a horrible market to trade, in the traditional sense of the word, where traders of the $SPX have to wait 2 weeks for a 3 day rally, over a holiday.  

$SPX - breaks out to a slightly higher high, on super light holiday volume - Typical 



 I'm expecting a market correction as soon as August, or Sept, but not until small caps bounce back.  

After that I'd expect the market to rally into the election, only to be dumped on Donald Trump's watch, just as they did in 2020. 

In the meantime: If you can't find me on Twitter, you may find me on Truth Social @3XTraders

Market Wrap-up May 2024

 Last time I blogged was in January, and not much has changed, when I wrote:  

  What's Wrong With This Market? A Picture Says 1000 Words!

Here's a 6 month view of the Russell 2000 treading water above the 50 day moving average, yet still trading in the same range that it was... 4 years ago. 


Of course the talking heads who work for the corporate owned lame stream media lie every day: 

These Fast Money clowns also lied, when they claimed that $SOX was leading... back around the time of the last correction - ahead of the Israel/ Gaza war. 

CNBC now makes the claim that they know where the market is headed over the summer, when they're obviously just reading a script; trying to sell memberships.  

The summer trade: Here’s how the S&P 500 fares between June and August—and which sectors stand out Link to paid content  Link to paid content  

The $VIX continues to be hammered, even when it looks like the WWIII ship has already left the harbor, and the networks pretend this is just business as usual.   

The truth is: we're almost half way through the trading year, and the Market Bulls have little to show for it. If you have a diversified portfolio that is.    

Sure, the Lame Stream Media will report new all time highs, as the retail short sellers are squeezed into yet another holiday - as we just saw - heading into Memorial Day - but nobody is making money in this flat market. 

I suppose this is why we see money being put to work in China, and Precious metals, even Silver.

MARKET UPDATE  

Last day of May is Friday, and that sets up for a market rebalancing - in June - ahead of the Summer break, and the end of the year.  

Lately we're seeing every rally sold, so I'd be looking for new leadership... but I'm not about to start making predictions, or giving away specific targets. 

One thing I can confirm is that everything I've blogged about over the past 2 years - about the market being dressed up in order to help Joe Biden look good, and Trump look stupid, seems to be set in stone. 

 President Joe Biden's campaign ripped presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump after the Dow Jones Industrial Average hit a record 40,000.

Twitter X flags/ limits and blocks my account

Sent from my Galaxy:
 
"Why does my account have a label?

You may not use X’s services in a manner intended to artificially amplify, suppress information, or engage in behavior that manipulates or disrupts people’s experience or platform manipulation defenses on X.

What does this mean for my account?

I can't really say why my twitter account was flagged, but I did have to prove I was a human after getting locked out yesterday... this was the second time in a week. 

That's right I was also booted off of twitterX this week, but you have to expect this kind of thing during an election year.   

The irony in all this, is that I spend a great deal of time each day reporting financial trolls to twitterX @support. 

Look, I don't take too kindly to having AI programs limiting my freedom of speech, so I may just say "fuck it", and make a move to Truth Social.

What's Wrong With This Market? A Picture Says 1000 Words!

 You can probably already guess from the title of this blog that I'm none too pleased with the recent market action, and that may also help explain why I haven't blogged in over 2 weeks!

 What's Wrong With This Market?

1. Volatility being endlessly sold

The broader market has become pretty dull, as the $VIX continues to be hammered lower. Lower the $VIX the slower the market moves. This explains why we're not setting any records. 

I remember CNBC talking about how market corrections are a thing of the past, and it looks like they may have finally achieved that goal, but booms are always followed by busts. 

2. The broader market is being driven by a few FAANG stocks - as usual. The mag 7 is just another cutsie name for it. Sure, we saw a few sector rotations along the way, but they were short lived.   

Of course the lame stream media couldn't wait to report - after Friday's closing bell - that small caps rallied 2%, and that brings us to #3. 

3. The Lamestream financial media continually lies  

I watched the host on Bloomberg falsely imply that this means that the market rally has been broad based, which couldn't be further from the truth. 

 A Picture Says 1000 Words 

$IWM Russell 2000 ETF 15 min. chart - Obviously not leading a rally, but rather consolidating sideways. More proof that the lame stream media will lie to investors in order to confuse them. 


Speaking of the lame stream media lying, in order to try to make things sound better than they are: 

This morning Bloomberg is seen reporting that the market has rallied more days than it's fallen, over the past week. I call this grasping at straws.

4. Financials also not leading 

You may recall; I pointed out not too long ago, that the banks were not on as sound a footing as we were being led to believe, and all you have to do is look at some key bank stocks...

 $SPX overweight - Bank of America $BAC. It recently got a dead cat bounce off the 50 day moving average, but a picture says 1000 words.   


And if you think I'm cherry-picking bank stocks, in order to prove a point, just look at where $BANK was trading - relative to the $SPX - back at 2021 (bubble) highs.

You can't have a strong economy without a sound financial footing

4. Monday mornings surprises   

Here's something that threw me off last week, and that's the taking down of Natural Gas, below support. Call this a nasty Monday morning surprise. 

As it turns out it was reported last week, that Joe Biden had illegally halted LNG exports, in order to placate his environmental activist fanbase. You can't make this stuff up. 

The Media Coverage of Biden’s Natural Gas Decision Is Ridiculous newrepublic.com

Is it any wonder that the lame stream media is more focused on Trump being fined for something he probably didn't even do, rather than focusing on the imposter in the White House? 

And where's the coverage of Kamala? But I digress. 

As it turns out, Biden's move is a token gesture to fool his base, and delaying the completion of a large, new, LNG plant is only going to negatively impact greenhouse emissions. 

The Media Coverage of Biden’s Natural Gas Decision Is Ridiculous newrepublic.com


There had been a few good sector trades to be had, including last week's nasty correction in semiconductors, and the recent rally in energy, but sadly most traders are focused on the eternally rigged, and ever increasingly boring $SPX.  

Until next time; good luck, 

AA

Best Trade of the week

Best Trade of the week was not found trading the $SPX 

Bitcoin 

I also found a decent trade selling financials ahead of the kickoff of earnings season, on Friday.

 

Which trades have not worked? 

Nearly every single trade that's been shamelessly hyped by the lame stream media, and the Fast Money - boiler room - crew @ CNBC 

Just goes to show; there's always a trade somewhere, if you know where to look, and tune out the fake news. 

This week is another shortened trading week, thanks to the woke, MLK holiday. We saw a little more short covering ahead of it, and I think that's probably why they created the holiday in the first place; so that the controllers would have an easier time driving financial markets at the start of each new year. 

On a more serious note:

 Bill NH HB1700: Prohibiting the intentional release of polluting emissions, including cloud seeding, weather modification, excessive electromagnetic radio frequency, and microwave radiation and making penalties for violation of such prohibition, has been introduced in New Hampshire. 



Of course this bill is unlikely to stop the ongoing Geoengineering operations 


Again, I'm going to suggest that you protect yourself, and your family, from the chemical fallout from this process, and especially if you live in an area that is constantly bombarded from the Geoengineering ops overhead. 

The nanoparticulate fallout is highly toxic, and so small that it crosses the blood brain barrier. 

I can't say that filtering the air is going to be 100% effective, but it is definitely better than nothing, and offers some peace of mind.  

I run a Winix HEPA Air Purifier [linked] in my living space 24/7, and am thinking about picking up a second unit - that doesn't require replacement filters - for the office.  

Kenmore PM2010 Air Purifiers with H13 True HEPA Filter, Covers Up to 1200 Sq.Foot

The newest technology in Air filtration, doesn't require replacement filters:  

Nuwave Whole House Air Purifiers, Oxypure Smart Air Purifier with 5 Stage Tower Structure Air Filter, Air Quality & Odor Sensors, Sleep Mode for Bedroom, Remove 99.99% of Dust, Smoke, Pollen, Allergen

Trying to make sense of yesterday's massive rally

 The number one reason stocks rallied on Monday, is the topic I touched on yesterday (linked below): 

Pump N Dump Markets Continue into 2024 - Happy New Year!


Another reason we saw stocks rally yesterday, is that it was the 1st working Monday of the new year, and if fund managers want to keep their jobs, they have to put money to work. 

I can't complain, because I had a feeling they would storm right back into beaten up tech stocks... 
We also saw another killer trade in Natural Gas as it rallied 4% off the lows of the day 

Nearly 400 impressions on the pullback target I tweeted out first thing yesterday morning.  
That means Natural Gas has become the new meme trade, and is too hot to touch. 

Funny thing is that as the global economy - from Germany to China - continues to contract, markets continue to trade higher, just as they did in 2007, and that leads me to believe that markets may be at a tipping point. 

Germany is the thing to watch as the lame stream media chooses to ignore the developing situation there. Makes me wonder; "what else are they choosing not to report"? 

$DAX (Germany) - The short term chart looks like a classic suckers rally. Perhaps this is only the beginning in wave A (a-b-c), but I'm not taking any chances. 


France - Same thing. Weak action after making new all time highs. 

$GDOW Global Dow Same thing 

Take Care,

Pump N Dump Markets Continue into 2024 - Happy New Year!

Pump N Dump Markets Continue 

Didn't I tell you they didn't want to chase this rally into the new year, and here we are only a week later, and tech has supposedly had the worst opening week in 20 years?

They drove stocks up on light holiday volume, only to dump them on the first trading day of 2024.   

Of course the month isn't over, and the $VIX remains super low, so this is more of a shakeout, and a sector rotation, than a meaningful correction.

The selling has been limited to a few sectors - small caps, and tech - so the 2024 market looks exactly like the 2023 market.   

Funny, Fast Money alerted to this "magnificent rotation" coming in 2023, and all it took was someone at Barclays to downgrade Apple, and that was their green light to sell tech. 

Who/ what is Barclays? .... I really never gave it much thought, but then I found this, "British universal bank" has been since before the foundation of the United States! Makes sense that they would provide the catalyst... since the rigging of global financial markets begins in the UK. 

Barclays is a British multinational universal bank, headquartered in London, England. Barclays operates as two divisions, Barclays UK and Barclays International, supported by a service company, Barclays Execution Services.

Barclays traces its origins to the goldsmith banking business established in the City of London in 1690.[4] James Barclay became a partner in the business in 1736. In 1896, twelve banks in London and the English provinces, including Goslings Bank, Backhouse's Bank and Gurney, Peckover and Company, united as a joint-stock bank under the name Barclays and Co. Over the following decades, Barclays expanded to become a nationwide bank. In 1967 source wikipedia.org

I have 2 Barclays charts - neither of which I can share - and I can tell you that the financial system is not as sound as "the powers that be" claim... 

And instead of the lame stream media focusing on this downgrade, and the person or persons behind it, and the lack of transparency when it comes to who is selling (short) the market, they choose to report nonsense, such as the fed minutes. 

Happy New Year! 

I can't complain, because I knew the market would correct soon enough, and especially when you see momentum dry up, as we did at the end of 2023. 



This has been an extraordinary start to the new year, for those of us who had a good idea of what to expect in 2024!

Hopefully you learned something in 2023, and are having as prosperous a New Year, as I am.

Good things coming in 2024?

I've already written quite a bit on 2023 (in review), and everything that has led up to this moment in time, so you should definitely review all the recent updates, for information related to the current market environment; including Friday's update EOY Window Dressing Continues into 2024  

Looking ahead to 2024   

In order to get a good handle on what to expect in 2024 we need to look back to the Covid liquidity bubble of 2021-22, and the length of time it takes for a bubble to unwind.  

Excess money printing - in the form of stimulus and QE - was no doubt hatched as a way to ensure that the ponzi economy would quickly recover once Donald Trump, and Boris Johnson, were out of the way, but the globalist banksters overplayed their hand, and now we're all paying the price in the form of higher prices on most everything, from housing to bitcoin. 

Sure, the rate at which inflation is rising - as measured by the fed - has fallen but prices remain near all time highs, and eventually prices always return to the mean.   

From a technical standpoint when a market doubles in only 2 years - as the $SPX did between 2020, and the end of 2021 - it's going to take a good long time from consolidation to complete, and I believe we're not even halfway there. 

We didn't even come close to seeing capitulation, in the pullback of 2022. In fact the bottom formed at lower $VIX numbers.   

An Important Discovery 

I think one of the greatest discoveries I had in 2023, was the $SPX 5000 (futures) target... 

 I would have never found that SPX 5000 target, unless I had first discovered that market manipulation starts with US market futures.  

 There is no other explanation for the pump n dump (overshoot) rally of 2020 - 2021, than that 5000 (futures) target, followed by profit taking in 2022 (for tax reasons), and there's no other reason for the market to be pumped to the same bubble highs in January 2024, than to "ring the register", for a second time. 

  Good things coming in 2024?

I'm afraid not. 

Sure, in the short term, we could see the $SPX pumped to the 5000 level, and since the bulls are fixated on round number targets, and Joe Sixpack is fixated on the Dow, we could even see Dow 39 - 40k, and especially if Donald Trump is prevented from running a second time!

$INDU - Looks like the Dow could be headed to 39,000, before year end.


Today the market has been driven back into bubble territory, because they're still hell bent on making Joe Biden look good, ahead of election 2024, but they could just as easily crash it again, if Trump were somehow able to win a second term. 

The establishment likes more government spending, and less regulation, as we saw under Clinton, Obama, and Biden. Doesn't matter if they call themselves (republican or Democrat); fiscal conservatism is dead. 

$INDU - Democrats & Republicans working together = markets higher. 


In the meantime

The smart money is selling, and if you don't believe me, then just look at what Warren Buffet is doing. 

Warren Buffett Selling $28.7 Billion in Stock Rings Alarm Bell Over Economy newsweek.com

I got a few things wrong in 2023: 

1. The extent of the banking collapse. I caught a falling knife there.   

2. I also got bitcoin wrong, as I had no idea that this would be used as a cash cow for the controllers. Especially going into the end of the year, when it became clear that they had only driven Bitcoin up, in order to raise some much needed cash.

I did get the sector rotation out of energy, oil, and Natural Gas right, and that is something nobody else was predicting. In fact the lame stream media purposely brought certain people on TV in order to tell you that tech couldn't lead another bull market.

Just goes to show whatever is working, tends to continue to work for longer than you would expect. 

Thankfully I don't believe anything I see on TV, and I was able to make up for any losses from earlier in the year, by sticking with my energy short. Just goes to show there's always a bear market somewhere.   

Speaking of the energy trade

That sector rotation, in and out of energy, helped  fuel the tech rally, but it also did something else. It prevented capitulation, because energy was used as a safe hiding place.

In a true market correction there is no safe hiding place. 

Take care, AA
