Hey friend,
Weekly jobless claims continued to fall from last week, coming in below expectations.
And the trade deficit – the key driver behind the tariffs – also came in under expectations.
Tomorrow is the official US employment report.
But the real big news is the market’s reaction to the tariffs…
Especially with Fed Chair Powell slated to give a speech tomorrow morning.

The Daily Nugget
Short-term pain often sets up long-term moves.
Markets don’t just turn when things feel better.
They turn after the crowd gives up..
After the pain stretches a little longer than anyone expects.
Right now, with a host of new tariffs announced, there’s likely still more downside ahead.
But that’s exactly what will set the stage for the next major move…
And when that move comes, it’ll be sharp, fast – and unexpected.
The key isn’t to predict the bottom. It’s to be ready when the turn comes.
