TWIFO 497: Upside Continues in Equities, Crude and Copper


Listen Later

The markets are seeing a sea of green this week, and the bulls are showing no signs of slowing down. Host Mark Longo is joined by Scott Bauer of Prosper Trading Academy to break down a "meteoric" rally in the S&P 500 and a surprising surge in commodities that's defying the traditional geopolitical playbook.

In this episode, we dive into:

  • Equities Spotlight: The S&P 500 breaks through the psychological 7500 barrier. Scott explains why this is one of the "most hated rallies" in memory and how he's using Iron Condors to navigate high volatility.

  • Energy Update: Crude oil (WTI) threatens the par strike once again. We analyze the narrowing volatility gap between Crude and Natural Gas and what the July 80 puts tell us about market sentiment.

  • Metals Movers: Copper is stealing the spotlight from Silver, threatening all-time highs. We break down the massive vertical spreads hitting the tape in the September contracts.

  • Agricultural Surprises: Why conflict in the Middle East led to an unexpected 11% explosion in SRW Wheat.

  • Zero-Day Madness: A look at the "insatiable appetite" for 0DTE options and why traders are paying a nickel for outlandish strikes.
