Hey friend,
We got the latest durable goods orders data this morning.
And while the numbers showed a monthly drop, the decline was much less than expected.
This could indicate the economy is performing better than expected.
We also got the new consumer confidence data, which also showed a decline – but also declined less than expected.
All in, it’s pretty good news.
Let’s see how the markets have been moving.
The Daily Direction

Note: All indexes closed lower yesterday and generally opened slightly lower today as well. Still, all index directions are still solidly in upward territory.
The Daily Nugget
Underrated trading superpower – knowing what everyone else believes.
It’s easy to know what you yourself believe.
And while it may also seem easy to know what other people believe – in reality, it’s far harder than most think.
Politicians are masters of this.
They can detect what people truly believe in – and then craft their messaging accordingly.
But what most people don’t realize is that the best traders are masters of this also – just in a different way.
They can look at a price chart and instantly grasp what the rest of the market believes.
And then, they can make their trades based on those beliefs.
It’s a trading superpower that most people don’t even know exists.
But if you can acquire even just a fraction of this power for yourself…
Your trading performance will improve.
Tomorrow afternoon at 3 p.m. Eastern…

And he’ll see you tomorrow afternoon at 3 p.m. ET sharp.
