Hey Traders, Yesterday, Google reported earnings, and let’s just say… it wasn’t pretty. The stock dropped hard after the report, and today it’s down about 15 bucks. But here’s the crazy part — right before the close yesterday, traders were piling into GOOG stock, betting big that it would surge higher. Even worse, they were […]

Earlier this month, I walked you through a stock that had caught my eye— EAT (Brinker International) —and showed you a few different ways to trade it. First, we broke down why it was a trending stock worth watching and I gave you a couple of trade ideas. Then, about 10 days later, I followed […]

Hey traders, Hey, it’s Jack. It’s Tuesday — Election Day — and today I want to share some perspective with you on the election, the stock market, and where our focus should be. With election season in full swing, I know there’s a lot of noise out there. The media wants to drive you crazy […]

Hey Traders, If you’ve been around the block a few times in the stock market, you know that earnings season is prime time for wild swings, big surprises, and plenty of lessons. And yesterday was no different. Google reported earnings after the close and popped a whopping 7.5% overnight, only to slide throughout the day, […]
