7 Critical Insights for Next Week's Volatile Trading
(Video link inside)

Don Kaufman here.
Buckle up, because we've got a lot to unpack from this wild week of trading, and I'm going to give you the lowdown on why this volatility isn't going anywhere.
In this week's video, I'm diving deep into:
The S&P's wild ride and why we might be entering a "volatility channel"
Why that 65 VIX spike might not be what you think it is
The critical levels you need to watch in the coming week
Why volatility spikes don't always signal market bottoms (and why that matters)
What the bond market is telling us about potential opportunities
My take on Meta and why I'm positioning for a potential downside move
The upcoming CPI report and why it could have devastating effects
I'm also breaking down some key volatility metrics that aren't making headlines but are crucial for understanding where we're headed.
Trust me, you won't want to miss my analysis on VIX futures, VVIX, and skew – they're painting a picture that might surprise you.
Plus, I'm sharing my personal trading strategies for navigating this choppy market, including specific plays I'm making in bonds and tech stocks.
If you're wondering how to position yourself for what's coming next, or if you're trying to make sense of this week's massive swings, this video is a must-watch.
I'm cutting through the noise and giving you the straight facts on what's really driving this market.
Don't get caught off guard next week.
To your success,
Don Kaufman
