Stuck in the Middle with You
(must watch Friday video)

Don Kaufman here.
And boy…do I have a wild ride to share with you. We're wrapping up a week that's left even this seasoned trader scratching his head.
Picture this:
• S&P 500 and NASDAQ? Flat as a pancake. But everything else? Moving like it's on fire!
• Bonds selling off like there's no tomorrow – interest rates are doing the cha-cha slide up to 4%
• The mighty dollar flexing its muscles in a way we haven't seen in years
• Japanese Yen? Let's just say it's seen better days
But here's where it get’s interesting…
We're stuck in a range tighter than a drum, and the risk?
Oh, it's piling up like there's no tomorrow.
We're talking billions with a 'B', folks.
Now, I could go on about negative and positive gamma until we're both blue in the face, but instead, let me tease you with this:
• Why are financial stocks grinning while tech giants are on a rollercoaster?
• The shocking truth about AI's current market impact (or lack thereof)
• The 'neutron bomb of gamma risk' that's ticking away as we speak
• Why next week might be more "binary outcome" than your favorite trading indicators
I've got charts, I've got insights, and I've got a feeling you're not going to want to miss this one.
It's all in my latest video, and trust me, it's juicier than a prime rib on Sunday.
