 The following is a presentation of TFNN. The Morning Markets Kickoff with your host, Tommy O'Brien. Good Monday morning everybody. I'm Tommy O'Brien, company live from TFNN, 9.06 a.m. Monday. We got about 30 minutes to go until the start of trading and we pick up right where you left off Friday. You talk about an acceleration, man, putting things into a 15 minute chart. It was a one-way trip Friday. Amazing that it took until 10.15. The Chairman's speech, eight minutes. I've been here all along, watching Bloomberg over the weekend this morning early. Eight minutes speech, he chose to be short and to the point, remarkable though, that the market actually dropped about 30 to 40 points, got it all back for a bit. And then everybody decided, yeah, he had a few words to say and they were very important to the side of higher rates coming at you. And last night we opened, basically we're out right now and you've been chopping around. So futures, I was pretty interested to see where futures opened last night when you had the S&Ps down almost 3% on Friday. This morning, you're down about 8-10%. NASDAQ was down almost 4%. You're down another percent this morning. Not many days, you see a slide like that. I mean, there was no reprieve yesterday, Friday. No reprieve. You could say you got a consolidation between 11.15 in the morning and 1.00 p.m. Eastern time and look how the day closed out on the NASDAQ, man. I mean, these are 15-minute bars, folks, and you only have three of them all day. And from one o'clock on, you didn't have a single green bar the whole day. In the final three hours of trading, the S&Ps managed to barely get a green bar over that time. But as you see, markets open negative is gonna be an interesting open to say the least. Bitcoin catching some headlines this morning under 20,000. This blue line on Bitcoin I have here, that is where futures open five years ago. You could say a critical area there, Bitcoin. Now, they've been down at these lows before. June, we had 18,500 somewhere in there. We're trading at 19,700. But always interesting when you're under the price level that futures began trading at almost five years ago for Bitcoin. Ethereum, 1458 trading lower as well this morning. Everything gap low last night. Gold catching a little bit of a bid this morning from 1731 to 1748. You see that run there? They're talking about in the den. We're all gonna become commodity traders, man. Just remarkable action across the board. There's natural gas dropping a bit. We had a 10 handle last week on natural gas. Won't talk some volatility, man. There's some volatility chopping around near the recent highs, 906 down 21 cents for natural gas this morning. And we checked to the crude contract that was looking. Crude, up a bit, 93.99 last week we're at 95.76. And we jumped to notes and bonds as we got lower price and higher yield. The 10 year right now 3.1% about 3.097 to be exact. You were as low as 1.1628. So this market recoiling a little bit. We had higher yields coming at you. We're at 1.1707, but you've caught a bid to the tune of what, 10, 11 ticks off of the lows. So far this morning on the 10 year, the 30 years off almost a full point. It was off a full point at 1.1610 down 27 ticks for the 10 year, 30 years. Excuse me, did you jump over the VIX? And there's some action for you, man, on the VIX. Jumping back to it daily. Boy, you got that first leap about a week ago. And really, you bang out that week with quite a candle. We opened today at 27.09. And if you go back to the beginning of the year, we've only had one time where the VIX has spiked and we haven't hit the 30s, okay? And that was when we did get some type of spike in early April. They got the VIX up to about 25. But other than that, we've had three spikes of a market acceleration to a downturn. And every time you've had the VIX about eight to 10 points higher than even if we're at right now. Just to show you kind of what is possible. Markets catching a little bit of a bid off the lows, S&Ps down 29 off of being down negative 40 or more at one point. But nonetheless, that VIX, the Friday action of the VIX, today we opened a bit higher. You compare it to the spikes we've had recently. It's very possible that we're going higher than 27 folks. We have about three full weeks until we're talking about a Fed meeting, okay? So there's ample time for the market to get ahead of whatever they think may be coming. Now, maybe you pull back in terms of the market action up until that Fed meeting. Maybe you'll pull back just until we get some economic data, which we're gonna begin getting as we come into September. We're coming into, of course, a long weekend next weekend. Markets closed one week from today. We come back Tuesday, September 6th, and you are two weeks away from when that Fed meeting begins, September 20th. So where does the market head ahead of that? We're gonna find out in about 20 minutes from right now when we get it open. Let's jump to some of the headlines we got this morning. Future sink, treasuries fall on policy outlook. That's one way to put it, man. The other headline out there I was reading this morning, rally hopes crumble as Powell's rates reality hits full force. Now you could say that the market had no reason to be surprised, right? That what the chairman said was pretty reasonable stuff that they're not gonna pause just yet. You know, the idea that they're gonna begin cutting, it's all gonna be data dependent. And what you have to remember is that the last CPI print that we were dealing with is 8.5%. You add up those two, you add up the fact that we have a jobs number that's adding what, 500,000 jobs for the month of July, inflation at 8.5%. You better believe that they're probably gonna have their foot on the pedal for some foreseeable time, to say the least. So we jump from there. Let's just jump into some of the headlines this morning and we'll kick it off. Unfortunately, no launch this morning. So the Artemis-1 rocket launch suspended. There was a story out there from the AP early this morning that they had cracks potentially. Now, no humans, no people on this actual rocket. Okay, that's not landing on the actual moon itself as well, but still you wanna be safe. And man, I was reading about this thing, right? So check out the amount of cash that this thing has burned in and I am all about spending money on science folks when you, especially, let's put it this way, we should be able to understand this all of us anyway, but especially when you have a child and you start running the numbers of, I am 42 right now. My son is one. My son is gonna be about 30 years old in the year 2050. He's gonna be my age in the year 2063, right? 2063, you wanna believe in science folks because the leaps ahead that we can make during that time, pretty amazing to think what it comes with. So this one though, boy, you talk about some delays, man. Now, in 2012, they estimated it was gonna cost $6 billion to develop, debut in 2017 and carry a 500 million per launch price tag. It's only now debuting. It costs more than $20 billion. NASA's inspector general, its internal auditor earlier this year, said that Artemis is not the sustainable moon program that the agency's officials say it is. They found more than 40 billion has already been spent on the programs and projected NASA would spend 93 billion on the effort through 2025. I can't stand when people don't wanna spend money on science folks. There's nothing wrong with privatizing some of that. SpaceX is doing a great job. There's nothing also with spending some of the money that we have on a NASA program and scientists, okay? But you can still hold them accountable, man, because that's bonkers. As we know, sometimes in government, man, the big dig in Boston, right? We saw it firsthand in Boston, man. You wanna know how to spend some cash. 40 billion already, 93 billion to 2025. But here's the kicker of it all. Even that 2025 dates now in question, as the NASA's inspector general said the development technologies needed to land on the moon's surface are unlikely to be ready before 2026 at the earliest. Unfortunate to say the least, but this morning that gets scrapped and probably the right thing for safety. Think of the pressure on the people running that thing with all of the delays, right? To launch anyway, but thankfully you got us air with the side of safety. Stay tuned folks, we'll be back. We'll be talking some markets and what we have coming up this week. We'll be right back.

I'm gonna jump to the dollar real quick. You can talk about some moves, man, in currencies. Dollar index pushes 109 today. We give back almost a full point. Look at the action on a 15-minute basis, man. Now you look at the action on Friday, okay? From 107.58, almost two full points to where we were last night. 109.47, you give up almost a full point. Look at the action of the Euro-US Dollar. Not normally the type of action you get in currencies, folks. Euro on Friday, okay? Early, early. We're trading at 99.5. You make it up to one over parity, okay? And then what do you do? You trade from that point all the way down to 99. And then this morning, from about one in the morning, we were at almost 99. You just got above parity again. That's a full penny, which is just a mammoth, mammoth move in the forex market. I mean, you're getting pretty large moves in the tenure comparatively to the moves that you normally see. I mean, you're talking about a full point lower from where we were chopping around on Friday. Since the low is overnight, you're up about 10, 12 ticks. Currencies impacting, of course, markets, impacting commodities. You could make the case, folks, that the gold contract has held up pretty well when priced in dollars, considering the strength. Now, part of this pop here is the retracement of all that we just talked about there, okay? You've had some recoiling action. Gold was as low as 1731. We're at 1750 right now. If you ever do get dollar weakening, and I'm not saying you're getting it because I'm probably not placing that wage here right now, man, not on Monday morning with 10 minutes to go in the open following Friday's action, where the chairman came out and said, I'm gonna be as short as I can and make sure they don't have too many words to read through what I'm trying to tell them, which is inflation's out of control. They have two mandates, right? Full employment and price stability. Remember this, folks, the Fed has two mandates. If you remember this, it's pretty simple considering what the data is showing right now. They have two mandates, okay? They don't have three that includes a stock market reaching all-time highs. They have full employment, which of course is in some way tied to the market and it tied to the economy, but tough to make the case that we are not probably past full employment for a healthy economy. Part of the reason that inflation is raging, you could say is that we are past full employment or a healthy full employment. Nonetheless, full employment and what? Price stability. We have 8.5% inflation, we're gaining 500,000 jobs a month, okay? And we got unemployment at 3.6%. You gotta read the writing on the wall, man, and the data backs up that they do not need to pause right now when you're adding, I mean, we're adding 500,000 jobs a month, folks, okay? If that data starts to shift, yes, you could see a dramatic shift. The chairman is probably rightfully so betting that they have some room to go before they really have an impact on that inflation number. We're supposed to be at 2%, folks. Yeah, we might get down to four or three, but we're supposed to get to two. It's gonna take us a little time and the Fed, seems like they're trying to tell the market that they're gonna be vigilant and we'll see where the markets pick up this morning, whether we pick up with negative action with down 30 points right now on the S&Ps jumping back to some of the futures and those commodities and jumping to that 10-year. Let's just jump to the 30-year real quick because it is interesting when you take a look at the 30-year, you go back as far as you can, right? Could be a dominant sign for lower prices and higher yield potentially, maybe people flock into the little safety of risk off because boy, you break through that channel line, right? And an ode to our man, Bud Ross, the channel master, okay, and whether it's support, whether it's channel, I love the idea, because it makes a lot of sense. Yeah, let's go back out a five-year weekly to see that bar. And what do we do, folks? All we did is we came back and we tested that bar and traded lower. Well, Bud, what I was saying, man, you break through that line, right? That's not where you sell it, you wait for confirmation. What's the confirmation? The confirmation is you come back up, you test that line, then you trade lower. I mean, this is a monthly going back as far as I can see to 1999. That's a 23-year trend. And look how many times it perfectly touches this. Now, yeah, we missed it a couple of times, but pretty close in January of 2014 and in November of 2018, okay? But even if you take that line and you say to yourself, maybe it should be a little bit higher for linear regression, maybe we push it up to here or so, right? Whatever it is, pretty close to a pretty decisive action coming back, testing that line. If that's the case, man, boy, you talk about a rejection of that line. Doesn't get much cleaner than that rejection that we just saw on August 1st, touching that. You got five straight days of negative action on the 30-year. We just traded from 145 to 136 since we touched that line. Nine points, just like that. The moves are pretty amazing. Let's jump around to some of the fang stocks and see how we're opening Monday. Probably gonna be negative action across the board. Apple, they're gonna give back about two bucks, man. There's a weekly. Let's put it back on a daily. Talk about a day, man. Apple, they got 16 billion shares traded. And on Friday's action, we'll put it to a 15 minute. They traded from 171. Today, you're at 161. Apple alone just gave up $160 billion in market capitalization. That's just amazing. There's not many companies out there worth more than $160 billion. Apple gave it up just from where you were Friday morning. Microsoft, they're down another three bucks this morning to 265. We jump over to Google shares, sitting at about 110 from 111. We jumped to Tesla. Pretty interesting that the market's getting a little bit of a lift right now. Only negative 27, kind of pushing where you were pre-market, almost session highs for the pre-market because you opened right at this level right now. We did make it to a high of about 4040 at about three in the morning. But even that couple of tails above that price we're trading right now at 4031. We jump over to Amazon shares, continuing to check it out. Amazon down about a dollar today. I was reading about Amazon and I made this remark on Friday and I do have Amazon in retirement, folks. I mean, everybody really does. I encourage you to, in the long term I just don't see how this company is not able to beat the multiples when they are just basically in everything. Now the story that got me going here is, where are we? Oh, don't do it to me now. Here we are. Yeah, so they just shut down their Amazon care, which was an internal program providing health and telehealth to their own employees. They just shut that down, but they acquired one medical earlier in the summer. Now this story here is about their one medical purchase, July of 2022 this year. So they acquired one medical and at that time people in the industry analysts, whatever it is, said one of them's gotta give because they're basically doing the same thing. One life, one medical, excuse me, is a niche player, almost like how they bought Whole Foods. So not exactly gonna take over the entire industry immediately with that deal, but nonetheless, as they put it, the Whole Foods of primary care, okay? One medical's clinics could eventually augment Amazon's virtual offerings by stitching together online consultations with in-person tests and treatments when needed. That's where it's going, man. There is so much potential here. Now it's interesting because they bought Pillpack a while back and they folded Pillpack into their own Amazon pharmacy, but this time they do it the other way around. So one medical, now the kicker of this all, okay? They've never turned a profit. They have more than 8,500 business clients and 767,000 patients, okay? So not even a million patients in the span of American healthcare, but nonetheless, it's an entry to them. And what's remarkable about this is some of the pullbacks we've had and some of the value that has been lost in these companies when you think about what they paid. Now, 3.49 billion is the purchase of one medical, okay? And that relates to about $18 a share. We're gonna finish this up when we get back, but one medical, as last year, traded as high as 59.82. Stay tuned, folks, we'll be right back. In a time of booming inflation, we are purchasing powers eroded. There's no better place to protect your harder and money-thinning gold.

Kind of spike a little bit on the open to negative prices, putting things on a five minute chart to get a closer look at it. There's your open sitting right now at 4,023, pretty much where we're chopping around. You look at this consolidation area overnight about a low of 4,015 to the upper boundary about 4,030 and we're square right in the middle of that. The S&Ps down 34 points right now. Jumping around to other headlines out there. We talked about yields. How about the two year, the highest level since 2007? Not bad if you want to get a little two year yield. Highest level since November of 2007. You got the two year in black there. You're pushing what? Just over 3%, I think that number is. Does it even tell us in here? Sure, I can pull it up. Maybe somebody in the den if they have, here we go. 3.48%. Not bad, 3.5% on a two year, man. Not bad right now. You think about market volatility and where you go. You can get 3.5%. You put it in there for two years. What's that? 7% that you're getting on the market that's still trading above 4,000 right now. 4,027. Keeping in mind that we were just trading at 3,600 about three months ago. That's a solid 10% below where we're trading at right now. We are right at the 3.82 of the bounce right now in the S&Ps. That level, about 4,015, and that is from the low. Oh, no, that is not the low to the high. Let's extend that. Let's activate that. Let's put that up to the top. Yeah, so we've blown through the 3.82 now. The 50% just under 4,000 and 3,900, man. If I was looking to wait even, and longer term, I'm not loading up the boat at all, but that's an area that I could much easier see a bounce. Potentially, if this market trades lower, I'd be much happier. Getting into an area of 3,900, maybe you set your stop somewhere below that because you break below 3,900. I would say you're at least trading another 100 points and then you go another 100 below that to 3,700 as they go with the S&Ps down about 30 points. But yeah, two year, 3.5%, not bad. Finished up that Amazon conversation real quick. So one medical, one life, which they own one medical, there's the stock there. So it comes out, Amazon's buying them about 18 bucks a share, 3. something billion dollars. But pretty remarkable, man. When you look at some of these companies, 59.82 Amazon gets them a year later for 18 bucks. Three billion and change, basically nothing to a company like that if they can transform it. Now, that article that I was reading talked about that they're also going to have to signify health now. So they're gonna be more in the buy-then-build mode for healthcare and probably not surprising, maybe considering how it went with Amazon care at home in terms of the one that they were doing for their own employees. Now, this is the article from when they purchased them, okay, 3.49 billion, but you can see the reach that that company would have, that company, Amazon, and you see the ability for them to purchase a company. Excuse me, that servicing almost a million Americans for 18 bucks a share, when it was just trading there at the beginning of the year and was all the way up at 59.82 last year, and that is where the future of healthcare is going, folks. There is no reason that you need to be in a physical doctor's office for a lot of what you do. Yes, sometimes you're gonna have to show up, whether it's getting blood work, right? Whether it's getting just a doctor needs to physically, actually physically examine you in some way. But many times that's not the case. And many times now that I have young kids in the house, you walk into a doctor's office and it's just germs everywhere, man. I dread being in there because it's the quickest way to get sick. Same thing with the hospital, man. Get out of the hospital the moment you can, folks, because everybody's very sick in there. And it's a very easy way to catch something, especially in a doctor's office for pediatrics. Now, the one we go to is pretty cool. They have one room for the kids who are sick, right? One room for the kids who are well. You're supposed to, that way you show up there. The kids aren't running around, they're the sick ones, at least they have their own area. It's got its own chairs, whatever it be. But still, you get the point, right? Many times you can go in there for some type of a checkup or maybe it's just something where you have the sniffles and you can tell the doctor that, yeah, I took the kid's temperature, it's 100.5. He's not sleeping very well. There's just a million reasons of how that's gonna change the world as we do everything online. So, yeah. And like you said, Amazon already knows everything about you, man. The amount of prime numbers they got. And we'll finish it up on the whole Amazon case, man, because I was reading about this weekend and I'm pulling up the article right now. Lord of the Rings is coming to Amazon, I think, September 2nd, and it's gonna be like $715 million is what they spent already. They had to pay $250 million for the rights. It's gonna be an eight season. I think five seasons, eight seasons. Nonetheless, they're spending $700 million, almost a billion dollars on one series of a show, of one season of a show, okay? And that's gonna kick off September 2nd for Amazon. And that's what every prime member gets on their period. Just very difficult to imagine that company, man. Not blowing away many industries. And as I say it, they're positive today somehow, man. And they catch a little bit of a bid. Somebody's listening. Who's buying Amazon out there on the open from 129.50 to 131. It is remarkable when you think about it, folks, when you have that type of a reach on Amazon. And listen, I'm a Sam's member, right? I shop at Walmart. I love Target, but they are just leaps behind competing with Amazon when it comes to process and process is the future in terms of being able to logistically deliver expectations for people. You don't think they understand how that's something that healthcare will be ever important to. They understand process better than anybody. They have the cloud infrastructure to facilitate something like that better than anybody. And we'll see if it plays out. Let's jump around to some of these other bank stocks. We catch a bid for the first six and a half minutes of the trading day. Apple down about eight tenths percent. That's gonna weigh on the market, man. Microsoft down about three tenths percent. Google shares positive a bit up by about four tenths. See how Met is doing this morning. Up by about four tenths percent from Met shares. Let's see how ARC, the ultimate growth stock, they catch a little bit of a bid. Let's see how some of those are. We're gonna zoom catching a bit off the pretty disastrous lows resume up 1.5 percent today. I wouldn't be touching zoom just yet though, folks. Roku, similar deal. Really dicey territory for Roku. Now I've been saying it before, man. Roku, maybe Amazon buys Roku at some point. I don't think so. Okay, but maybe somebody buys Roku. Maybe Netflix buys Roku and maybe they don't. But there's a possibility that happens folks because Roku right now is under $10 billion. And I think they're in 66 million US households as the set top box, along with being in many TVs, as the gatekeeper for streaming and these companies. I mean, I just told you, Amazon, Amazon's gonna spend a billion dollars on one series of Lord of the Rings, okay? Something to keep in mind as Roku hits levels that are, I mean, you came into COVID at double the price that you're at right now. You're telling me that the world has changed that dramatically. I mean, they've faltered in many ways. They're playing obviously some issues, but nonetheless, and the other one that I always think about it as well as DraftKings. Now they've caught a recent bid with some of their recent earnings, but still twice last year, you were above 60 bucks. This year, again, you're down about half a percent. You're sitting at a market cap right now, $7.3 billion for DraftKings. The other one in gambling, Penn. They own Barstool Sports, sitting at about 32. They also won some tracks and Penn's sitting at about $5 billion. Something to think about, man. Roku, especially, you know, they're in some doldrums here, but I imagine Reed Hastings has taken a hard look at this equity under $10 billion when you were trading at $490 twice last year and even the beginning of this year, you were at 240. Speaking of, we jump over to Netflix right now, and FLX, and they're up a bit with some of the growth stocks.

Distributor, Four Side Fund Services, LLC. This program is brought to you by VistaGold, traded on the NYSE American and TSX under the symbol VGZ. Hi folks, we got the gold contract right now, up $1. This is a longer-term chart, folks. This goes back to the 70s of gold at 100 bucks, gold charges higher. Tell you folks, if you're getting into the gold market, check out the front page of TFNN right now. We got a special right on the front page of TFNN. You can save 50% on the gold report off your first month. Because man, credit to my dad, when he started the gold report, folks, I think it was 227 bucks. It's somewhere around this, right here on this chart, which is just a mind-boggling bottom and the run that has ensued. Quite a pullback from the years of 2011 to the lows of 2016. We're chopping around near those highs right now at 1751. That high, 1826, September of 2011, that high that it ran up to before you got a pullback. I think he got his subscribers out around 16 or 1700 bucks, man, after starting that thing at 200. And boy, some of those equities. Okay, the miners, you think gold ran when it went from 200 to 1800? You imagine running a business and how profitable that business becomes when it goes from 200 to higher. Now, the reason why I have this up is because I had mentioned gold's behaving pretty well considering for the strength of the dollar over this time. Now, Steve Rhodes, our man talks about it all the time, talking about gold priced in other currencies, right? Just taking a look, okay? I'm gonna pull this up real quick. At the yen, for instance, just remarkable when you see the type of moves, right? I mean, if you're in Japan and you're holding the yen, okay, now I just put it up on this chart in terms of we are back to basically where this was in 2011, right? Gold charges higher to 1750. We're sitting right now at 1750. We were where we are in 2011. In the yen, you're more than double where you were, man. 2011, okay, from 2005, gold goes from 43,000 up to what, 135,000, 100,000. There's April of 2011. There's August of 2011. And we're sitting at 240,000 right now, man. And just look, since 2018, okay? Gold priced in yen's almost doubling during that time. Now, the point being is if you're trading gold, you better be keeping track of currencies, man, because you see the type of impact a dollar strength is gonna have on gold. Now, it's much more important than just the yen, but the yen's an important one for a big way, as that happens, okay? Cause just September of 2018, you have gold in yen's going from 133, 133,000 to 240, okay? And September, 2018, yeah, we're still up 50% over that time. I mean, you can't deny the moves that we've had, okay? But checking out the yen over that time, right? Look at, and this is the reason why, okay? From 2011, you have such a divergence because over that time, man, you have had the yen go from 77 to 138, right? Basically cut in half the buying power cause that is dollar strength, that is yen weakness, okay? It used to cost you 77 yen for a dollar, that's probably a much bigger number, right? And now it's 138. So if you haven't checked out, this is another plug, why not? Because it all applies right now, folks, especially in this environment, so much going on. You look at this move in the yen, man, from the beginning of 2020, the yen just went from 102 to 138. We were sitting at, and it's not parity cause it's not one for one, it's like a hundred for one, but we were almost at that parity line of a hundred, you could call it, and just like that, man, the yen versus the dollar loses almost 40% of that buying power that you had. Pretty dramatic moves. All right, jumping back to the market real quick. S&Ps holding up pretty well right now. We closed the gap. You closed yesterday, I mean, yesterday, Friday, excuse me, and look how the futures even trailed off towards 415, man, 445, excuse me. Futures didn't stop even after the market closed. We hit about 4,042 for the low, and the market just got above that. We just actually closed that gap, man. You got a size 4,043, and I got a low print at the close of 4,042. You actually closed out the session at 4,042.75. Yeah, 4,042.75, where you closed out the 5pm session, okay, where you actually closed out at 4pm Eastern time, you were talking about 4,059, which is why the market's still low about 20 points or so there. Crew contract catches a little bit at 95.24 right now. Let's see where we are with the Euro US dollar. This morning as we got some big action and currencies, we're back above the parity line at 100. Yeah, we were as low as 99, man. This is part of the reason you're seeing so much action and gold in a big way. We've seen action in the dollar yen as well. Crew contract up $2, pushing the highs that we had last week, 95.19 for crude. There's that gold contract at 1,751 and we check in on notes and bonds, sitting at about 1,704 for the 10 year, 10 year at about 3.1% the two year at 3.5%. There's some numbers for you. All right, let's jump into some of the earnings we got this week. So we'll jump into Tuesday. We get some numbers, Best Buy, I believe out with their numbers on Tuesday. Let's jump over to their chart, BBY, not to be confused with Bed Bath and Beyond, BBY. It's actually later in the week, they're gonna have a presentation in some degree, putting this on a little bit of a longer-term chart. Quite a pullback from 141 cut in half to about $74.00. You're back well below where we were pre-COVID levels of about 90 bucks. You came in to 2020. We jump over to the Analyze tab and the Earnings tab. And yes, they were out with their numbers tomorrow when you're looking at about a $6.00 move for a $74.00 equity for Best Buy. What else do we got? We got Chewie out with their numbers as well. CHWI, the pet food provider. They're out with their numbers tomorrow. There's some volatility for you, man. It's a $37.00 stock. You got a $5.00 move priced in. This thing's been on quite a pullback from 120. Now you did get quite a bounce here. I remember looking at this thing, and you don't even need to draw that trend line to realize that, boy, we're bumping up against some dicey levels in terms of if that's a downtrend channel, man, you just touched that level. And where exactly does that fall? Maybe you could line it up with the recent trend we've had here. Maybe it's a little bit of linear regression matching the lows we had all the way back to March of 2021. Nonetheless, you see, man, we just touched that upper boundary line about $50.00 with $37.00. And they have almost a 15% move priced into their numbers after the bell tomorrow for Chewie. CrowdStrike, another one. They're out with their numbers. About a $16.50 move, CrowdStrike, coming into those numbers. Got a bunch of Fibonacci numbers up here. Let's see, let's take off some of these numbers for some clarity here. Well, this one's interesting. I'll leave this one on. You see the pullback we just had from April to the lows of May 9th? You bounce, where do you bounce to? You bounce right to the 618 right now. Now you're positive today on the session by about 2.10%, CrowdStrike, about a $16.50 move into their numbers. And that'll be Tuesday as well, tomorrow. Wednesday, jumping down some of those. We got Express, we got Cheecos, you get some retail out there. We got Bonson Noble. We got Five Below. They'll be out with their numbers. Let's check out Five Below. Some of those cheaper retailers. They haven't been in trouble lately, man. From 237 down to 120. We look at the full pullback this thing had from 47 bucks up to 237. You could say it built a little bit of a base at the 618, man. We come into their numbers. Now Wednesday, and you're talking about a $9 move for Five Below, $126 stock coming into their numbers. And fast forwarding further in the week. What do we get? Bed Bath and Beyond. They're gonna provide a business and strategic update to investors during a conference call on Wednesday at 8.15 a.m. Eastern time. Press release and related materials to be issued approximately 7.30 a.m. Eastern time. So Wednesday, the meme stocks, they might get some lighter fuel as if they need it.

We have 25 minutes of trading so far with markets open and the future is holding up pretty well. We get the S&Ps down about 20 points right now at 4,038, almost up near the session high so far this morning. Jumping around to some of the other companies to keep your eye on this week with numbers. Broadcom, AVGO, they, you talk about a pullback, man, they trade down $30 on Friday this morning. We're basically flat. We jump over. They're out with their numbers September 1st, which is Thursday, I believe, right? Yes, Thursday. They'll be out with their numbers after the bell. Broadcom, you talk about 5% move about priced into that equity, $23 just under a 5% move. We also get Lulu Lemon out Thursday after the bell as well. There's some more volatility, about a $22 move priced in for $310 stock for Lulu right now. Lulu down about 6 tenths percent. You trade down about $12 from where you were on Friday. You take a look at this thing from the entire COVID right of 128 to 485, chopping around right around that 50%. You did make it as low as the 618. You see that 50% line many times, kind of that 300 area. Nice round number being an area of support. And right now you're coming into their numbers Thursday after the bell as well. We jumped to some of the currencies. Crude checking in as we almost come to the end of the program, catching a little bit of a bid, man. I came on the air. Well, not that I was checking out crude early this morning. Of course, 93 handle. I did come on the air and crude was under $94. Right, where were we? Yeah, we were chopping around about $94, man. You given an hour crude up a buck 50 just while I've been doing the show and you're inching towards the highs of last week, 95, 76. We take a look at crude. Folks, I was talking to our man, Teddy Kegstad, last week about this on our chat every Wednesday at 40 past the hour. And you know, he sees some higher crude prices coming at you. And one of the things I say is, man, this pullback is so dramatic. Even if you get a healthy bounce and you think crude is probably going somewhat lower or consolidating, a 3A2 brings you to 100 bucks. A 618 brings you to 109. Somewhere in that area seems highly reasonable that crude makes a path to. All right, folks, talk about an interesting market. We got action in both directions. S&P's negative by 15. Stay tuned. We got our man, Basil Chapman. He is up next with the Tiger Technicians Hour. Steve Rhodes at 11 o'clock. Fast market at 12. Larry Pezzavento live at one. Dave White live at two.
