Providing these snippets from X allows you to understand the economic sentiment.

In essence, Alex Karp, CEO of Palantir, is challenging the credibility of certain individuals, particularly those with strong academic backgrounds but whom they perceive as lacking practical understanding or real-world experience.

The reference to "breathing the vapors of a dangerous, fake, and self-destructive religion" is likely a metaphorical way of expressing concern about what the speaker sees as misguided beliefs or behaviors.

Russia & Ukraine Discussions

The worldwide economy remains at risk.

Contrary to the optimistic reports of an imminent resolution between Russia and Ukraine, the global economy remains in a precarious state, and the complexities surrounding the conflict persist. The situation between Russia and Ukraine is far from straightforward. While there may be hope for a resolution, the current phase of the conflict indicates a challenging reality.

Ukraine is facing serious challenges, such as running low on supplies and dealing with low morale. Both sides are grappling with the harsh consequences, with Ukraine taking a significant hit.

This new phase could be Ukraine’s acceptance of defeat.

^{STOCK INSIGHTS}

$NVDA

(Pic A) In the short term, NVDA has been in a tight range between 500 and 420s. A substantially wider range than most companies. 438 (yellow line) intraday could create support IF we get there; otherwise, we may revisit the lower range.

What has NVDA told/showed us?

On a technical level, It showed us that this 140 area in 2022 was a very good entry for investors. In 2023, the 260-280 zone was very crucial. If rates are not cut and, in fact, raised, this 280-350 could be tested long-term.

Fundamentally, here's a great read on their growth and possible future concerns.

One thing that sticks out is, with so much AI technology, how will NVDA continue to separate itself from competition like Broadcom (AVGO), Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM), Alphabet (GOOGL), Alphabet (GOOG), Oracle (ORCL), Microsoft (MSFT)

TRADING CHAT RESULTS

Our golden play was /ES long:

As you can see, we keep our gains big and our losses small.

• $TSLA went from $190 to $450

• /ES gave us a total of 22 points when all are added together. That equals $50 per point. Total of $1,100 per contract.

We did cut $ILLY (not listed, and $SPX). Our /Mes trade was very small, trading /mes instead of /es.

Weekly Insights:

Powell Speaks

With all that is going on in the economy last week Powell and other guest speakers were very straightforward mentioning it is not promised we start cutting rates. Keep in mind the market did not believe him as it traded higher and closed above 4600 on the week!

Important Date: Friday December 8th, Jobs Report! Does the data show we hold rates longer at the highs? Who knows? Powell does. If job reports continue to get weaker the feds may gain confidence to cut rates.
