The team had a strong day shorting MicroStrategy, generating over $10K in profits. MSTR showed an incredible run-up as Bitcoin retested levels. The speaker clarifies they do not carry trades overnight, emphasizing that their strategy focuses on entering and exiting short positions within short timeframes. This approach differs from investment strategies and represents quick trades rather than overnight positions.
After markets gapped up throughout the day, the focus was waiting for confirmation of reversal before shorting. A 3% sell-off occurred during dinner hour in Spain, preventing the speaker from taking advantage of the short opportunity. Several LPP traders successfully shorted this move. MSTR continued rallying an additional 2.59% during overnight hours.
CrowdStrike gained at least 20% following earnings reports, with significant gap-up action and additional rally. The speaker notes that expensive or overbought conditions don't necessarily trigger immediate pullbacks, as the stock runs on hype and momentum. No open positions were taken despite the overbought reversal being on the radar.
The speaker held one share of MSTR overnight, resulting in a $4 position visible in their account. They're watching for Bitcoin pullback confirmation before considering short positions on MSTR, emphasizing the importance of trading only when confirmation is present rather than jumping the gun.
Marvell reported earnings with nothing spectacular, described as quite terrible. The stock declined 7.77% including overnight hours. The broader picture shows a strong descending pattern. Fair value analysis indicates 11% downside based on average fair value of $36 versus current trading around $40 per share. The P/E ratio remains expensive at 91.6 times earnings, with a market cap of $14.48 billion. Common support exists at lows around $30, with consolidation resistance near $50.
Marvell Technologies reported fair earnings with acceptable guidance, but markets reacted negatively. The stock dropped from pre-market highs of $260 to lows of $223, representing a 7.8% decline. The overall daily move from highs to lows reached 14%. These chip, memory chip, semiconductor, and AI infrastructure stocks demonstrate extreme volatility. The speaker advises beginners to avoid such exposure unless they can tolerate significant risk, noting the stock is testing support around $200 and has previously retested lows near $160.
President Trump continues promoting various publicly traded companies. Recent news includes the Trump administration changing Lake Ontario, Canada to "Lake of America." Peter Schiff commented that instead of focusing on branding changes, the president should address government spending to fulfill campaign promises of making America great again. The speaker emphasizes that government spending remains the biggest concern across political aisles, noting that tax dollars are perceived as wasted, which affects taxpayer sentiment.
