Episode Details

Trade headlines hit… and suddenly gold spikes, stocks drop, and the guys start seeing signals that feel uncomfortably familiar. Jim Iuorio and Bobby Iaccino break down why the market may be reacting less to “tariffs” and more to trade uncertainty, what a surge in SOFR upside calls could be hinting at, and how they’re positioning across equities, precious metals, oil, and crypto.

You’ll hear the duo’s unfiltered take on why technical analysis isn’t voodoo (it’s the “steering wheel” while news is the “gas pedal”), why “defensive” stocks may not be defensive anymore, and the exact crude oil chart setup they’re watching next. Plus: Jim’s blunt assessment of Bitcoin’s identity crisis and why it’s still trading like a high-beta Nasdaq proxy.
