Good morning America,

A strong week for stocks despite “the banking crisis”. I was wrong about the Fed decision, I expected a pause. On this subject… I think we probably saw the final hike of the tightening crusade unless the banking system has a serious problem.

A green week for me especially in the largest weightings of my book. Intraday trading was profitable but relatively light. A ten-bagger on Tuesday was a treat.

Interesting times to come as Q1 comes to an end. If 2023 could be defined by one aspect it would be frustration (or surprise).


Markets in a nutshell
SPX (Spot) no new levels…

Just an idea as it’s still close to the price I paid… Friday I bought an SPX 04/21 4100/4200 call spread for ~16. Now 22.5.


A fun fact from Goldman… “the MAGMA + NVDA cohort has added a collective ~$620bn of market cap since the regional bank issues began, which compares to ~$950bn of collective market cap lost by the remaining 494 companies in the S&P”.


QQQ vs DIA has been one of my best trades of the year - breadth has been poor and that makes me think of changing this trade up a little and opening short DIA vs QQQE.
