Episode Details

Here is the trade setup for the Friday open. Markets are hitting a wall of geopolitical friction as the "AI-bull" momentum stalls and institutional flows shift toward defensive hedges.

🚀 Stocks to Watch:

• $NVDA: Cooling off as focus shifts to liquid-cooling supply bottlenecks.

• $WDAY: Momentum leader following a massive subscription revenue beat.

• $EL: Surging 12% on a solo turnaround strategy.

• $ROST: The defensive winner capturing the consumer trade-down.

• $XOM: The primary hedge against tech volatility and energy shocks.

📉 The Key Levels:

• S&P 500 (/ES): Resistance at 7,510 | Support at 7,410 (The Line in the Sand).

• Nasdaq 100 (/NQ): Resistance at 29,675 | Support at 28,570.

• 10-Year Yield: Watching the 4.65% danger zone for a valuation reset.

🔔 Strategy: Beware the liquidity trap. We are watching the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment print at 10:00 AM ET to see if the energy shock is hitting the American wallet. Don't chase the mid-range; play the extremes.
