NASDAQ Turns Bullish
Despite recent volatility, the NASDAQ is now reading as bullish on the EdgeFinder, scoring a +8. Price action is currently testing support around 18,300, with the Put/Call ratio signaling extreme fear—a condition that sometimes precedes a reversal if bearish pressure begins to ease.
Today, the U.S. government doubled tariffs on Chinese semiconductors, raising them from 25% to 50%. This move, framed as part of the CHIPS Act initiative, is aimed at safeguarding domestic chip investments and reducing U.S. dependence on foreign chipmakers. The news sent ripples through the tech sector, especially semiconductors, adding downward pressure to a market already under stress.

Bullish Case for Bitcoin
Bitcoin may benefit from the escalating trade tensions. Historically, geopolitical uncertainty and economic disruption have pushed investors toward decentralized assets. As fears mount around supply chains and global tech stability, Bitcoin’s appeal as a non-sovereign, store-of-value asset increases. If capital begins to rotate out of tech stocks due to chip-related risks, crypto could absorb some of that speculative interest.

Oil Prices Inch Higher
Crude oil inventories rose by 515,000 barrels today, while exports are holding steady above 5 million barrels per day. Oil prices have stabilized around $62, providing some confidence to energy exporters. However, should prices dip back below $60, many energy firms may struggle to justify production costs, potentially curbing future output.

The Put/Call ratio remains in extreme fear territory, indicating high levels of short interest from retail traders. This kind of sentiment often signals a potential turning point—especially if bearish momentum starts to cool.

I'm up over $57,000 on Gold longs (GLD) right now.
US Stocks, the USD, and US treasuries have all been seeing heavy pressure recently.
This could largely be centered around the looming uncertainty around the US, its alliances, and trade negotiations.
Regardless, gold is perfectly playing its dual role as both an alternative to traditional investment vehicles, as well as a safe haven in times of uncertainty.
Fundamentals are king.

Gold is defying expectations once again, pushing higher as fear-driven investors seek safe haven assets. With trade tensions escalating and earnings outlooks murky, capital is rotating out of equities and the U.S. dollar.
The Dollar Index (DXY) is down 11% from its January highs, pressured by aggressive devaluation tactics from the current White House administration. Since gold tends to move inversely to the dollar, the metal remains one of the few perceived safe investments—at least until clarity returns to the markets.

S&P 500 Slips Toward April Lows
Monday’s sell-off suggests the S&P 500 could be headed back to retest the lows seen earlier in April. Although the put/call ratio is easing from extreme fear levels, volatility remains unusually high this month. This could warrant a reassessment of sentiment indicators as market conditions evolve.

The latest COT report from last Friday reveals institutional interest building in the NASDAQ, Nikkei, Russell, and bond notes. Conversely, smart money is pulling back from the S&P 500, Dow, and U.S. dollar—moves that could foreshadow broader shifts in sentiment or asset allocation.

Mortgage application data released this week shows another sharp decline, reflecting the ongoing struggles in the housing sector. Elevated home prices and high construction costs are creating headwinds for buyers and builders alike, contributing to a broader slowdown in real estate activity.
