In a Nutshell

HIMS stock plunged 17% afterhours on a massive EPS miss (-4,100%) and 1.4% revenue shortfall, proving hype can't sustain weak fundamentals. NASDAQ is freefalling amid irrational market greed, with tomorrow's CPI report critical: expect overall inflation at 3.3-3.7% and core (ex-food/energy) at 2.6-2.7%—watch bls.gov/cpi for line-item details, as anything over 2.7% signals broader price pressures. Plan: live stream CPI reaction if video hits 500 likes; strategy focuses on shorting overvalued names then buying oversold dips.

HIMS stock is down 17% in aftermarket hours due to worse-than-expected earnings: EPS miss of -4,100% and revenue miss of 1.4%. Every company must eventually deliver solid fundamentals, especially when showing signs of disappointment. HIMS traded at inflated levels from partnerships but delivered terrible earnings. Hype only goes so far; fundamentals matter.

NASDAQ markets are freefalling after trading sideways and elevated all day. Markets pushed higher despite US-Iran peace deal falling apart. US stock futures steady with CPI print and Iran tensions in focus, but no peace deal. Markets pumped for no reason during seven weeks of ceasefire talks with no agreement signed. Now at extreme greed levels. Markets are incredibly irrational.

CPI data report releases tomorrow. Market expectations:

  • Overall inflation: 3.3% to 3.7%
  • Core inflation (all items less food and energy): 2.6% to 2.7%

Core inflation excludes food and energy (including oil). Tomorrow answers if inflation is still rising without oil. If core CPI exceeds 2.7% (e.g., 2.8%, 2.9%, or 3%), it shows higher oil prices seeping into everything. Consumers lack disposable income; average American consumer struggling with elevated oil prices. Fuel and oil more expensive—question is if everything else is rising too.
