Playing the Dead Cat Bounce with Two QQQ Trades
We just saw the market have its best week in two years.
The Nasdaq Composite closed 10.4% higher on Friday than its Monday open as dealers, anticipating the quadruple witching day, unwound their hedges, covered their shorts, bought up futures, and brought the whole market up as other investors piled on.
Now, as I’m writing this on Monday afternoon, the markets are already selling down. The Nasdaq Composite and representative ETF QQQ have slipped and may go even lower.

Use this GME Put Spread to Take GameStop’s Losses to the Bank
January of 2021 ushered in a new era for the markets when the actions of a few internet-savvy traders set off an unprecedented trend in retail trading.
Where once GameStop Corp. (GME) could never break above $20 per share, its stock price was driven through the roof and beyond by Redditors preying on what hedge funds assumed was a safe and easy profit-play. For months, retail made up over 20% of the market’s total volume of trades, and they had institutional traders on the run.
A lot has changed since then – the Russia-Ukraine War, the fed funds rate hike, rising fears of stagflation – but one thing remains the same: GameStop is struggling.
The company completely whiffed on earnings on Friday, announcing a loss of $1.86 per share.
But while other investors bail on the stock or buy up shares expecting a rally, I have a better strategy – one that gives you a shot at turning GameStop’s earnings loss into your own 100% gain.

As regulators, hedge fund millionaires, and media barons of Wall Street plan to use your trades and investments to satisfy their own greed, Shah reveals how to outmaneuver them.
He knows exactly how this game is played, publishing reports, guides, and videos to help his readers navigate the markets, separating the financial media’s fluff from fact.
Now, Shah wants to hear from you so he can help you make the most out of this current climate.

Why I’m Still Bullish on SPACs
This week, the song remains the same.
The stock market remains sloppy and weak, with each attempt at a rally being met with selling in response to worsening news out of Ukraine. That situation appears to have little to no chance of improving any time soon. In addition to the real human suffering in Eastern Europe, the disruptions to the supply chain for many critical commodities are adding to inflationary pressures around the world.
The weakness in equity markets is also reflected in SPAC trading, “blank check” companies, before and after they announce merger partners. A simple Google search yields results detailing a recent “bloodbath” and “de-SPAC carnage,” with the fate of the surviving few uncertain, and how other investors are leaving the SPAC and De-SPAC market in droves; and blah, blah, blah
But I’m not one to follow the crowd. Everyone on the run from the SPACs market these days is leaving behind ripening profit opportunities – one of which I’ll outline for you today.

Buy this Mining Corp Before Stagflationary Fears Become Reality
Right now, consumer demand strong, the economy growing, and employment is on the rise… But that won’t stave off stagflation very much longer. A high inflation environment and a slowing (or stagnant) economy are right around the corner. Add that …

The Way to Profit Off of Rivian’s Disappointing Financials
Rivian Automotive Inc. (RIVN), an electric truck manufacturer, reported quarterly results on Friday that disappointed investors. The stock dropped more than 7.33% in early-Friday trading.
For the quarter, the company reported revenue of $54 million which was considerably lower than the estimates of $64 million.
On the bottom line, adjusted earnings were a $2.43 loss per share, also lower than estimates of a $2.05 loss per share.
Beyond the financials, what really impacted the stock was Rivian’s new production forecast. The company once claimed it could produce 50,000 vehicles per year. Now, due to persistent supply chain issues, its capacity has been cut to 25,000. Rivian just can’t get key components it needs to finish building its vehicles.
Even with the pandemic easing and the global supply chain crunch slowly mending, I think it’s going to be quite some time before RIVN is at full production capacity.
In the meantime, the company is burning through cash, has large operating losses, and rising interest rates will hurt the stock’s forward valuation.
I wouldn’t be surprised if we don’t see a short-term rally as bargain hunters move in to catch a bounce, but longer term, I think shares are heading lower, at least until they have a plan for sustainable production increases.
If shares of RIVN trade up to $39.75 by March 18, let’s buy the RIVN May 20, 2022 $35/$30 Put Spread for $2.25 or less. Plan on exiting the RIVN May 20, 2022 $35/$30 Put Spread for a 100% profit or if shares of RIVN close above $49.50.
But that’s not all I’m watching this week.

Mind Your Profits: SWIFT but Blunt Reaction to Russia-Ukraine War to Weaken USD
On Tuesday, CEO of JPMorgan Chase Jamie Dimon warned the world that cutting Russia out of the SWIFT system would yield “unintended consequences.”
That’s a monumental understatement.
In short, SWIFT is a system banks use to securely and quickly communicate transfer instructions across international borders. Cutting off an entire nation and its people from this system will have steep consequences across the globe.
We could be looking at the potential demise of the US dollar as the world’s reserve currency, another likely Lehman moment, and the acceleration of China’s progress from third-world nation to global power.
Here’s how the US’s influence on this apolitical system could hasten China’s ascent to global power.
