From the Desk of Kimmy Sokoloff

We've had terrible price action all week, and then Fed Chair Jerome Powell spoke today.

The market didn't like what he had to say.

Here are today's trades:

  • I bought $CAT at 256.98 and sold at 257.49.

  • I bought $HD at 288.30 and 289.44 and sold at 289.94.

  • I shorted $TSLA at 223.73 and covered at 223.06.

  • I shorted $TSLA at 220 and covered at 218.20. I also alerted the Live Trading Room that on a break of 220 this name can head to a gap area...

  • I bought $MSTR at 335.10 and sold at 336.10.

  • I bought $MSTR at 343 and sold at 344.

I booked one loser:

  • I bought $AMZN at 131.85 and sold at 130.

I have open long positions in $VXX, $MS, $GS, and $MRNA.

I have open short positions in $QQQ and $KLAC.

Have a great evening. Look for the Morning Briefing on Friday.

And please reach out with any questions.
