Hey Traders,
You wouldn’t believe the kind of nonsense and noise that’s out there in the market right now.
I just got back from a little “stock market summit” with some guys, and the one thing that stuck out to me was how everyone’s so wrapped up in what the Fed is going to say next.
I mean, seriously! Some folks are hanging on Jerome Powell’s every word, scouring the news for PPI, CPI, housing starts, and all that other statistical noise.
Here’s the truth: It’s all just that — noise.
I don’t waste my time marking down when Powell’s going to talk. I don’t follow the economic reports.
Why? Because none of that stuff ever affects the trend of a stock in any meaningful way.
Sure, you might see the market drop 400 points after a bad PPI number, only to bounce back 600 the next day. But that’s just a temporary blip, not the real story.
The real story is the trend!
Look at the S&P 500 chart or any chart for that matter — no CPI, PPI, or unemployment number ever made a lasting impact on the trend.
Trends are where the money is, and that’s what you should be focusing on.
Here’s my advice: Tune out the noise.
Stick with stocks that are in solid trends and learn how to use those stocks to generate income using options.
When you do that, you’re not just chasing the next big headline — you’re securing your financial future with a strategy that works.
So keep it simple. Focus on what matters, and don’t get caught up in the nonsense. That’s how you trade smart and live well.
If you need help finding the trend, just I’ve talked about it plenty in the past.

Trade well,
