Jim Tassoni - Momentum Check: Small Caps, Silver, US Dollar, Bitcoin Volatility

22 minutes

In this KE Report Daily Editorial, we’re joined by Jim Tassoni, CEO of Armor Wealth Strategies, for a momentum-focused look at equities, metals, energy, and cryptocurrencies. Jim outlines where trends are strengthening, where momentum is fading, and the key technical levels guiding his trades as markets head into year-end.

Key discussion points include:

Equity Index Momentum & Year-End Positioning - Small caps continue to lead while the S&P 500 and NASDAQ struggle to regain upside momentum. Jim explains how year-end hedging and profit protection may be driving choppy price action and why January could be decisive.

Silver’s Breakout & Gold’s Steady Trend - Silver’s explosive move into the $60+ range remains a strong momentum trade, though short-term exhaustion is showing. Gold continues to grind higher with longer-term momentum intact.

Dollar, Bonds, Oil, and Bitcoin Trends - The U.S. dollar has turned lower, bonds suggest a potential yield-curve steepening, oil remains under pressure, and Bitcoin continues to trade with bearish momentum after a sharp pullback.
