Hey Trader,


Finding Gratitude in Trading


In the fast-paced world of trading, it's easy to get caught up in the highs and lows of the market. However, amidst the fluctuations and uncertainties, it's important to pause and reflect on the blessings we have.


The verse from 1 Chronicles 16:34 reminds us, "Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever." As traders, let us cultivate an attitude of gratitude, acknowledging the goodness that surrounds us and the enduring love that sustains us.


In moments of success, let us be thankful for the opportunities that have come our way. And in times of challenge, let us find gratitude for the lessons learned and the strength gained.


By embracing gratitude, we not only foster a positive mindset but also cultivate resilience and perspective in our trading journey.


Wishing you abundance and gratitude in all your trades!


Be Relentless In Pursuit Of The Will 

Which God Has Set Upon Your Heart,

Stanley Druckenmiller Critiques Biden’s Economic Policies and Fed Actions


In a scathing review, billionaire investor Stanley Druckenmiller voiced his discontent with current economic strategies, placing blame on both fiscal and monetary authorities. Druckenmiller, renowned for his astute investment prowess, didn’t hold back during his recent appearance on CNBC’s “Squawk Box.”


Key Points:


  • Druckenmiller criticized Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and Fed Chair Jerome Powell for their roles in exacerbating high inflation.


  • He labeled “Bidenomics” as a failure, citing excessive government spending that is driving up inflation and hurting the average American.


  • Druckenmiller expressed concerns about the Federal Reserve’s handling of interest rates, suggesting that recent policies have only fueled financial instability.



The Fed’s Missteps:


Druckenmiller highlighted what he sees as a crucial error by the Federal Reserve in late 2023. He believes the Fed’s communication regarding potential interest rate cuts misled investors and worsened market conditions.


Political Ramifications:


With the U.S. presidential election looming, Druckenmiller’s critique takes on added significance. He suggested that Biden’s economic approach, if continued, could jeopardize his chances of reelection.


Looking Ahead:


In assessing the broader economic landscape, Druckenmiller expressed skepticism about both Biden and Trump’s approaches. As a staunch advocate for free markets and innovation, he finds himself without a preferred candidate.

S&P 500 Technical Analysis Chart

S&P 500 Retail Analysis for Wednesday: May 8, 2024


Let's break down some important numbers for you to keep an eye . . .


If we see the market falling towards 5095.00, there's a good chance of support being found and price could then rally towards 5333.00. Potentially continuing to rise from there if strong enough resistance isn't found over the next several weeks.


But if the market goes down and closes below 5210.00, it could mean that the selling pressure might be ramping up, and we might start seeing things get worse. Perhaps even see it go down to 5095.00 in the next several week, and maybe even beyond that.
