Happy May the 4th! - 05/04/26


Listen Later

May the 4th be with you… but the markets? Not so much.

Today's show is a perfect example of what happens when too many catalysts hit at once. We've got earnings shaking things up, geopolitical tension driving commodities, and traders trying to make sense of it all in real time.

We'll break down the biggest stories of the day, including action in UPS, Palantir, Advanced Micro Devices, and the always unpredictable GameStop. Some of these moves make sense… others feel like pure chaos.

Then there's the macro backdrop.

Oil is moving, tensions with Iran are still front and center, and the broader market is trying to decide whether to push higher or finally take a breather. This is one of those environments where headlines can move markets faster than fundamentals.

So what do you do?

You slow down. You focus. And you stick to your process.

That's exactly what we'll walk through today—what matters, what doesn't, and how to navigate a market that feels like it's being pulled in ten different directions.

Listen now:👉 Happy May the 4th!

Inside the episode:

  • The biggest movers and why they matter
  • Oil, geopolitics, and market reaction
  • Where the opportunities (and traps) are right now
  • How to trade when everything is moving at once

If you've been feeling like the market is a bit chaotic lately… you're not wrong.
