 Welcome back, folks. Dow. Dow's up by four. Nasik's up three. S&P's are down one. Let's go over to our man, Mr. Teddy Kegstad. As you do each and every Wednesday at 40 past the hour, you can reach Teddy every trading day, folks, at 4X-trading-unlocked.com. That's 4X-trading-unlocked.com. Teddy Kegstad, what's going on, brother? Good morning, guys. It's a sunny day in Chicago. I'm looking forward to playing some golf this afternoon. That is a beautiful thing. I love it, man. That's great. You can overlook that beautiful Lake Michigan, right? How about this rally in the dollar? It's a good day to go play golf because I think the market's already shot their momentum for the day. Yeah. Let's talk about that, man. I mean, the index itself, that took off topside last week, well, it's actually the index spiked higher on the open and then couldn't hold price, and then the baby, of course, jumped over that level. I guess in the longer context, it seems, Teddy, that we're trying to break out, right? And it hasn't actually broken out yet, meaning if I bring this back, you're going to see this consolidation. This has been a long consolidation, folks, but what you're going to see here is we're still, look at this. So the continuous contract, 97.705, I mean, still laying up there. Yeah, that's the end of last year, right? I think I can maybe give you a little explanation why it's really hanging and not really accelerating the move. Yeah. If you really look at the currencies that are moving, like, I don't know, do you know anybody that's short, the US dollar candidate today, I feel bad for them, you know, they're getting really crushed. I mean, anyone that's trading the Aussie dollar, the Canada, they're going to just smash today by the dollar. Look at that. But the pound is actually slightly higher, and the Swiss, which has been getting crushed against the dollar, they're actually stronger against the dollar today. And the Euro, that's the one that's definitely pushing its lows, but it's not like a really big break for the dollar beyond its highs. So what's happening right now is all the lesser majors and even all the lesser more, what we say, lower-tier currencies, they're the ones that are getting just really shellacked by the dollar right now. Yeah. Which isn't that positive for us because we're coming into earnings season, and if this continues for the next couple months, you're probably going to see second quarter earnings explode for companies. Okay. Yeah. So that would be because you figure they can buy their goods cheaper? Well, yeah. Well, take for instance Starbucks. My theory right now is that you have coffee prices that globally have come back, which is that's a good thing right now. I don't drink coffee, and I don't really go to Starbucks very often unless I meet somebody. It's pretty expensive. I don't know that they have ever cut their prices for the cups of coffee. But because of the currency, because of the strength of the dollar in the countries that they import coffee from, the cost of doing business for Starbucks is completely dropping and has several quarters. Now, that's going to definitely impact earnings. So I would say that this, I don't know when Starbucks is coming out with their earnings for first quarter, but I would assume that just by that factor alone, even if the sales were flat to only slightly higher, there's going to have a good uptick in earnings. And I think that will also continue into the next quarter as well. And that would mean also for other countries too, whether it's a food producer or a manufacturer, things like that, their margins will actually be, if the economy doesn't grow and just stays at an even level, the profits should be going, should still accelerate over the next quarter or two because of that. Yeah. I know you can see that. Folks, as Teddy was just talking there, we brought up, so Starbucks, Teddy, comes out tomorrow after the blows. And yeah, you can see. Is there a trend on that chart? I can't see. I get the coffee chart up right now, Teddy, as you're just talking. Just six months ago, coffee was a buck thirty-one a pound, folks. You had 93 cents, exactly. And you're right. There's no way that they've talked about reducing their prices. I go to Starbucks sometimes. I didn't see those prices drop, and that's because they ain't dropping, man. Yeah. Right. And then the currency is also stronger. So between those two pricing, their margins have to be exploding to the positive side. Right. Right. And I guess in Canada, you know, that's quite a move. I mean, one thirty-four to one US dollar, you know? Yeah, almost one thirty-five right now. Yeah. But they blasted through those highs right now. That's an explosive move. So you have the Canada, like, I mean, I know we import things from Canada. It's obviously a positive for us, you know? Yeah. Australia, they're getting hammered. And remember, we were talking about the New Zealand dollar a few weeks ago about how it was trending lower. We kind of had a sellish, you know, mode. Yes. It's just getting shellacked, too, you know? And, I mean, these are, they're major currencies still. They're the lesser batch of them. But for them to be hitting these extremes like this is a major, that's a big deal. This is not like they're heading into a bounce point. It looks like there is a trend that they're pushing to maybe hit some extremes that we haven't seen in quite a while. It might be an interesting trend we'll be talking about in three, four months from now. I like it. Interest hitting extremes. Oh, right? Yeah, it is. Yeah, no doubt. Huge moves. Yeah. Listen, folks, every trading day you can go over to our man, Teddy Cakes, at forex-trading-unlock.com. Well, listen, man, you have a great day. Have a good afternoon. Oh, hit him, Todd. Hey, Ivan. What do we got? Tiger Ones winning the Masters. I know. You've been away a while, man. You missed a lot. That was so cool. I watched him. Nice. Yeah. I watched him. Pretty crazy. That was one thing. I woke up in the middle of the night. I texted you. Yeah. Watched it. Watched him on the 18th hole, and then fell asleep again. Because you're in China at 12 hours forward. Right. So it finished at like two or three in the afternoon. So that's good. You woke up at two in the morning, caught the final pot, celebrating your morning with the sleep. And the day I got there, I think. Yeah. Yeah. That was pretty cool, huh, Teddy? Yeah. Quite a trip, huh? Oh, it was great. So hit him like Tiger today, Teddy. Yeah. Okay, man. Listen, you have a great one to save on. Okay. Take care, guys. Thanks, Teddy.
