It is official, folks. The NASDAQ is now down over 10% from its all-time highs. It hit right back around Halloween. We've been waiting for this moment, and it is finally here. NASDAQ down just a little less than 11% from all-time highs.

Now, at this point in time, looking at the public account, oh baby, we call that getting slapped and getting slapped hard. Look at that move down today in the public account. $121,000. Absolutely brutalized here today. The Flabjacks, I don't even think they're existent anymore at this point in time. They're so burnt, right? Look at some of these moves down. Meta was down almost 8% for me here today. Down $47,000. Look at AMD just got wrecked for me today. Down $42,000. Fubo gets wrecked every day. Good thing that's a small position, but that stock always gets wrecked, right? Palunteer is just bringing tears out of her eyes. That one's down almost 5% here today. Estee Lauder down 4 1/2%. SoFi down over 4%. ELF down 4%. Google McDougall that was one of the strongest stocks just a few months ago. And look at that. Down another 3% at this point in time. The only good thing is we've got massive gains on these stocks over time other than E and Fubo. But you know, still it hurts right when you get slapped like that. Man, just absolutely brutal.

Look at the VIX, ladies and gentlemen. The VIX is up 85% year to date. That's a shocking move, right? Make the VIX great again. Oh, it's great again. Oh my gosh. And to put this into context, like how insane of a move this is for the VIX to start out this year. Look at oil. Oil is like the thing you would have thought has gone up the most this year. It gets the most attention. It's obviously gone insane. the, you know, oil's up basically 63% for the year and the VIX is even beating out oil. Unbelievable. The one of the only other things out there that's doing really well is TSLZ. This is a 2x inverse against Tesla stock. It's up about 40% so far this year. And this one of the only things I have working well for me here in 2026.

Three core subjects we're going to get into in this video here today. Number one, is this market cooked? As the youngans would say, okay, it might be some youngans watching this video. Most of my audience is, I would say, 30 to 50 years old, but there's some youngans watching this. They say, "Is it cooked? We're cooked." Right? Uh market just keeps hitting lower low. Lower low. Every time it bounces back, guess what happens? It sells right back off, right? Or is the market cooked? We're going to talk about that at the beginning of this video. Number two, I sold out of a position 100% of it today. We're talking about what that position is, why I went ahead and did it. Third subject we're going to get into here today is all the stocks I bought here today, which there's a lot of them. And we're going to share exactly what price I got them at, why I bought them, all that good stuff.

One thing and one thing only I ask from you guys. I hope you can do it for me. I hope you can do it for me. I just need to smash that like button. That's all I need from you. Additionally, make sure you're subscribed to the channel. We are now over 920,000 subscribers. And you know, we might not be able to make any money in this market right now, but at least we have each other, right? At least we have each other. You guys know whether the market's uh total crapper or whether the markets skyrocketing, I'm going to be here for you. If it's kangaroo and I'm going to be here for you posting videos until I retire. Eventually, I'm going to retire from doing this stuff. But who knows? Like maybe I keep doing it. I'll be 80 years old someday. 90 years old. I'll be young and back in 2026. We had some crazy stuff happening in the market. You missed it back then, right? But uh I'm gonna keep you guys up to date with everything going on here.

Massive sale coming up April 1st. That is this uh next week. April Fools, don't be a fool sale for Thousandx. We're doing 50% off a usual monthly membership. That's to the entire software suite I use on a daily basis. I got you guys. This is a time to come in with a sale. So, I'm coming in with a sale for you guys. Now, some of you might say, you know what? I'll join Thousand X in the next bull market. No, you got to this is a time to join ThousandX. Like whenever you're in a a really extremely like bullish market or a very very bearish market, that's the time you want to join a software like this. Not when you know the market's like, you know, just doing fine and those sorts of things because listen, the best opportunities you're ever going to find in the market, it comes in a situation where the market's very, very bearish. and you've got to be running your projections on where these companies can likely go over the next several years without running those projections. It's going to be uh you're going to end up getting into stocks that you're going to wasting a lot of capital. Let's just put it that way. Cuz every time you come out of a bearish market and into a bullish market again, there's stocks that go up hundreds of percent, thousands of percent. And those are the game changers for your portfolio. So definitely join Thousand X here. And also, you think I'm going to be running 50% off specials for,000x uh in the next bull market? No. No. Because when we're in a bull market, people are very incentivized to join all these sorts of products, right? So, I'm going to cut you a deal right now. And then you also get grandfathered in. So, you don't have to worry about price going up, right? And then the other thing is I'm the full financial backer of Thousandx. I'm going to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on ThousandX this year, making tons of new features. It doesn't matter whether we're in a bull market, bare market. Since I'm the backer, I put fortunes of money into thousandx every single year and we just keep taking it higher and higher. You should see what we're working on over the next six months. It's ridiculous. So, anyways, take advantage of that sale. That will be the pinned comment down there. We can email over the sale or send it over via text. Okay.

Alrighty. Listen up, ladies and gentlemen. Let's talk about if this market's cooked. Okay. Oh boy. Investors, right? Investors have lost faith that the big dogs have their back now at this point in time. They've lost all faith. And when I say the big dogs, what am I talking about? There's several different big dogs that you could kind of count on being there for you, right? And, you know, driving the market higher and higher and higher. And I'll just be honest with you guys, we've lost every single big dog we had as a catalyst now at this point in time. Okay? It starts with what? the Federal Reserve, the stock market always cares immensely about the Fed, right? What's the Fed gonna do? What's their next move going to be, right? What's their move six months from now and all those sorts of things, right? Listen now, basically investors going into this year, people were expecting the Fed to cut rates significantly this year over the course of the year, right? All cuts are basically like off the table right now. Now, Wall Street funds, investors in general, they're not expecting any cuts anytime soon. So, all that excitement about, oh, they're going to cut here, they're going to cut there, it's basically gone now at this point in time. Not only has it gotten that bad, but since GSG has gone up so much, that's the commodity basket. Last time I checked, that was up about 37% year to date or some ridiculous number like that. Because oil's gone up so much, and that feeds into overall CPI, PPI, right? What could end up happening here is rate hikes are now on the table. Now people are start have started to have the conversation about oh the Fed might be raising rates in the middle of this year or in the second half of this year. That freaks people out big time because people don't feel like the economy is strong enough at this point in time to be able to handle rate hikes. People say you know and look at how the stock market got hit in 2022 and that was coming off of that crazy stimulus we had right from Rona. So when you start talking about hikes are getting placed off the table, right? You have yields going higher, people start saying, you know what, I'm just going to put my money into treasuries. I'm not going to even bother putting my money into the market, right? And then when you start saying hikes are on the table, people freak out, right? They get very, very concerned. They get very, very stressed. And that's what we have at this point in time. So the Fed, people don't feel like the Fed has their back. And when I say people, I'm talking about investors, Wall Street. They feel like the Fed is now, if anything's going to work against them over the next 6 to 12 months, that is no bueno.

Let's talk about the next big dog. It is Trump. Trump. Okay, so there was a lot of Trump optimism obviously, uh, you know, really last year, right? Oh, Trump's a president again. The economy is going to boom. It's going to be great, right? Well, what has happened since Trump became president is we got the massive tariff situation, right? Now, we have obviously what's going on in the Middle East and people are basically starting to look at Trump as like, "Oh my gosh, he's a short-term pain guy." When I talk about short-term pain, I'm really talking about like over the next year or next few years, right? And the things he's trying to do, you can make arguments that maybe it will make the United States stronger long term, right? It's a debate, but with a lot of the moves, the Venezuela move, obviously, what's going on in the Middle East now at this point in time, right? Tariffs, there's an argument to be made that this could make us stronger. United States of America long term. But all of these things are very negatively affecting the stock market, very negatively affecting the economy in the short term. There's no debating that, right? Tariffs go up, then company's profits are going to go down or they're going to pass it on to the consumer. And the consumer is so done with inflation, it's not even funny. Like the consumer hates inflation. I mean, it is just brutal, right? And that's why consumer sentiment is just awful right now because people are fed up with inflation, right? They're fed up with it. And then you doing all this stuff that ultimately ends up producing inflation, right? No. Once again, argument to be made that these might be good long-term things, but it's kind of like, you know, you got a kid and you want him to move out of your house and you're like, "Hey, Joey, you need to go get a job." And Joey says, "Oh, I'm going to get a job and it's going to be awesome and I'm going to move out, but I'm going to wait like a couple years." Okay? And so short term, you just got to wait through this thing, but don't worry, it's going to get a lot better for me. It's going to get a lot better for you guys. You just got to wait a few years for this. Right? People start getting fed up. They start getting impatient. Right? They've lost the Trump optimism. Now, at this point in time, I'm showing you, this is very important. What I'm showing you right now, extremely important. This is since Trump took office. Okay, so this is it basically took office one year and a little over two months ago. And since that time, the NASDAQ's up less than 7%, the S&P 500's up 6%, Bitcoin's down 34%, and Ethereum's down 37%. That is a very strong proof point that the market has lost all faith that Trump is going to like boost things and make things great in the short term. Once again, long-term there's a debate to be made there, but short term there's there's no they basically feel like they lost, you know, Trump now at this point in time. Right now, I'm showing you very important. This was Trump's first term for the same basically time frame here, right? From that Januaryish when he, you know, he got into office to basically, you know, that March time frame, right? And look at how the market was rolling under Trump first term. The Nasdaq was up 28%. The S&P 500 was up 17%, right? Versus less than 7% and 6%. That's a big difference. And that's the difference you have in Trump 2.0 versus Trump 1.0. Trump came in office, man, and you know that first term, so much optimism about United States, we're going to get back on the right track. Corporate taxes are going down. taxes on the average Americans going down. And I got to say, the economy, you know, of my adult lifetime, I really look at that economy from 2017 to 2019 as the best economy I've ever seen in my adult lifetime. And inflation was pretty low during that time frame, right? And so that was just like a a holy grail economy. And since I became an adult in 2008, right? I mean, I kind of saw things always kind of gradually get better, but gosh, man, we were really clicking on all cylinders. And it really felt like everybody was doing good. It wasn't just, oh, the rich are doing well. Oh, we got a K-shaped economy. No, it felt like everybody was doing well. Felt like there was lots of job opportunities out there. Felt like the economy was just chugging along and like the stock market's moving. Everything's moving, right? And uh real estate was moving. It was just like good times. Good times, right? And um yeah, there's definitely a very different feeling now. The feeling now is the rich are doing well. everybody else is struggling, right? And even now with how much Bitcoin's gone down, Ethereum's gone down, how much the stock market's starting to go down now might not even be that great a feeling about the rich, right? So, so then they're like, "Okay, who is who is doing well?" No one at this point in time, right? So, now this is stuff I all warned about way back on inauguration day. I war I did a video on the main channel here. It's called the Trump stock market is going to be a roller coaster. explained like how this is going to be a very different term for Trump under 2.0 than 1.0, but you know, some people listen that, some people didn't, right? Um, okay.

Next up here, so the next thing the stock market has been able to lean on for years, right? And they've lost it now is the MAG 7. The MAG 7, Google, Amazon, Tesla, Apple, Meta, Nvidia, Microsoft, right? Investors have now lost faith in even these companies. And the reason they've lost faith and you can look at it with the stock price all these companies the reason they've lost faith is companies like Google, Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, their capex is so ridiculous that now investors are like you're just spending every dime you got coming in toward this AI future that might or might not exist in the way you think it's going to exist, right? Instead of doing what? big share buybacks, big dividends, and the stuff that pours money back to shareholders, adding a bunch more cash on the balance sheet to make you feel even better, right? Or buying out other companies that maybe are extremely profitable that could be accreative to earnings per share. And now they're like, we're just spending money on all the stuff that might give us results or might not. And they're going to have to take unbelievable, and I've talked about this for months now at this point in time, they're going to take unbelievable amounts of depreciation. And that's going to definitely damage earnings per share growth of these companies over the next several years. It's just math. There's no there's no debate about this. It's just math. And if these companies keep taking this capex up up up in an insane manner, earnings per share growth is going to be tough to come by for these companies even with strong revenue growth because the depreciation will hit so hard. This is something to keep in mind here, ladies and gentlemen. And so investors have lost faith in the mag 7 at this point in time. And I'll show you like how extreme this has been. This is right before all these companies started coming out with their crazy capex numbers cuz people knew capex was going higher this year for all these companies, but they know it's going that insane, right? And look at the divergence. This is so important for everybody per every person watching this video right now. Okay, look at Apple only down 2%. That's nothing. That's nothing. Why? Because Apple's the one who didn't say, "Oh, we're going to spend like drunken sailors on capex this year." So, everybody's looking at Apple as they're the winner winner chicken dinner. They're like, "Okay, we got massive share buybacks. We're going to have dividends going up, right? We're going to probably add to our cash balance, and we're not going to speculate and spend hundreds of billions of dollars this year on an AI future that might work out or might not work out, right? Nvidia has been hit the second least. Why? Because Nvidia is guaranteed to have amazing numbers this year and next year because why? Because Google, Meta, all these companies are spending a fortune. Amazon, Microsoft. So, Nvidia's gotten hit a little bit, but only 9%. Cuz people are like, "Oh, people are going to, you know, these companies are still going to spend fortunes with Nvidia." Now, look at Tesla. Tesla's down about 13.6%. They're another spender on Capex, right? Look at Amazon. 15% down from that same amount of time versus once again Apple at 2%. Amazon's talking about spending like potentially $200 billion dollars at capex this year. Be a flipping my flapjacks. Google McDougall's down 16%. Meta's down almost 19%. And Mr. Softy Microsoft. Microsoft's got a double whammy going on right now. People are frustrated with the capex spend, right? Big numbers. But then also Microsoft gets grouped into what? The IGV software stocks. People kind of put in that category as well. And so people are like, "Oh my gosh." And that's why Microsoft is such a hated stock right now by Wall Street. I think Microsoft from its all-time highs is now down like 33% I want to say from alltime highs. That's a lot of damage for a big dog like Microsoft. That's a lot of damage. And so that's a market saying, "We don't trust you, Microsoft. We think there's potential of your business model being disrupted over the next few years and you're spending like a drunken sailor on, you know, capex." Unbelievable. And so that's the phenomenon we have going on. And people are going to say, "If I'm going to buy every anything in Mag 7, I'm putting my money in in Apple." It's clear as day, right? Because they're the ones that aren't spending an insane amount. Now, long term, we'll see what happens with this, right? The long term, maybe Apple gets disrupted over the next decade, right? And these companies that are spending fortunes on capex, maybe they're looking better than ever, right? And they go right past Apple where maybe Apple stagnates at a 3 to5 trillion market cap over the next decade. and maybe Meta, Amazon, these sorts of companies, even maybe Mr. Softy, maybe Google, maybe they end up becoming, you know, seven 10 trillion dollar market caps over the next decade, 12 trillion. Like, we'll see what happens, right? But just understand whoever's the winner in the short term is not necessarily going to be the winner long term. That's a very important thing for, you know, cuz if you watch my channel, you're a long-term investor. You're looking at these companies from a long-term perspective, right?

And the last big dog pillar we had was what? Last year everybody just talked about, oh the, you know, I had the reaction channel. Jeremy Lefay makes money. I'm reacting these Wall Streeters all the time. What would they talk about? The economy is so resilient. The consumer somehow finds a way to keep things going, right? Well, now it's a coin flip. Now, Wall Streeters, analysts, economists, it's basically up to like a coin flip now if there's going to be a recession this year, right? They're putting the odds somewhere around 50%. Right? So, the faith in the economy in the short term, at least, once again, not over the next 5 or 10 years, but in the short term, as in the over the next year, there's not faith in the economy. So, you got no faith in the economy. You got no faith in Mag 7. You have no faith in Trump. You have no faith in the Fed. any of these things in the short term, as in the next 6 to 12 months. Oh my gosh. And what does this all mean in the end? Uh I mean, we're we're cooked short term, right? We're cooked. Like there's no other way of putting it. You lost every big dog we had. Every big dog you had, we lost it. And it's just happened over the next few month over the last few months. It's not like this has happened over the course of like the year. No, no. This is all specifically happened in the last two months. Those crazy capex numbers that happened in the last two months. Obviously, inflation is starting to go crazy again. and losing the Fed happened in the last two months. Trump deciding, you know, obviously made the decision he did with regards to the Middle East happened in the last two months. And the economy that's happened in the last two months. So all was really transpired in the last two months and you lost every big dog.

But remember this, okay? Although we're cooked in the short term here, right? And always remember a couple things. One, the market bottoms on what? The market bottoms on bad news. It bottoms on bad news. Ask any experienced person that's been in the market 10, 20, 30 years, they'll all tell you that the market bottoms on bad news. We got a lot of bad news right now. We lost every big dog we had and we just lost it in the last two months. Every one of them. That's a lot of bad news. And so people assume you can buy stocks at the perfect time. You just wait for the good news to start. By that time though this there's going to be a lot of individual stocks already up 20 to 40%. By that time the indexes have already started bouncing back. The first phase of a new bull cycle starts when things look horrible. And what happens every single time I you know as somebody who's been in the market 17 18 years now I've never seen it where this has hasn't happened. People are like why is the stock market going up? Things are horrible. What what's going on here? This doesn't make any sense. I watch it when I first got in the market. Remember I started in the stock market during the great financial crisis 2008 2009 with a few hundred bucks to my name, right? And I remember people were, you know, that market bottomed in Q1 2009. People are like double bottom basically. People are like, why why is it going up? The economy is complete dumpster fire right now. Uh everything's awful. Like earnings are horrible and going to be horrible the whole year. Why why is the market moving up? Right? It happened in 2020. Like every single drop we've had, it's always that. Even last year, you know, market bottoms, what was I think it is April 9th or April 11th, somewhere around there. And even last year, people are like, why is the stock market already going up again? Like, it's not time to go up again. We still don't know what's happening with these tariffs and all this stuff. There's still a lot of uncertainty. And meanwhile, market was just kept moving up, moving up, moving up. Right? So, remember the market bottoms on bad news.

Number two, number two, right? is remember when things are cooked as we're talking about here, right? It's always the best buying opportunities you get. Any time period when you're going through a correction in the market, a crash in the market, right? When you start seeing individual stocks, even great companies that are down 30, 40, 50, 60%. I've never seen it where it's not a buy. And you can even study history, it's always a buy. Now, you can say, "Oh, maybe it'll go a little bit lower. I could get it even lower price, right?" You can look at a Mr. softy Microsoft I think it once again I think it's down like 33% from alltime highs who knows maybe Microsoft goes down 43% from all time highs maybe it goes down 35% right I don't know all I know is Microsoft looks like a buy today I'm not personally a shareholder in Microsoft but I got to say if you told me I had to go buy Microsoft I wouldn't mind I wouldn't mind picking off some Mr. softy today. So remember that ladies and gentlemen, whenever things look really bad out there, that's always the best buying opportunities you get. And those are always the time periods that people look back and they'll say, "What? You got so lucky. You got so lucky you bought that stock at this price, that stock at this price." And it's like, was I lucky or was I just doing the thing that you're supposed to do every time you get a correction or a crash in the market? Every time you get a correction or a crash in the market, what are you supposed to do? Buy stocks. Show me a correction or a crash in the market you shouldn't have been buying in. Doesn't exist. It literally does not exist. Every single one of them, right? You don't get lucky. It's called making the right decision.

Right now, talked about the public account here today. Right? If I think about the time periods I was buying where I ended up making the most money, the most money, it's time periods when I was buying when there was drama. The end of 2018 market was just getting wrecked. NASDAQ couldn't stop going down. Every big tech stock could not stop going down. Oh my gosh, it was ugly. It was Red Dead Redemption out there at the end of 2018. I was buying heavy. That's when the public count was still very, very new. Thank goodness I did that. A lot of those buys ended up being huge for me over the next several years. The second half of 2022 buys, oh my gosh, were those clutch buys. Cuz if I didn't buy, you know, look at Meta. I mean, Meta, we started out the video uh looking at the Meta position, right? 44 even after the stock's been deb like Meta is down what$200 plus dollars a share from its all-time high and I'm still sitting on $449,000 of gains in that stock and I still took hundreds of thousands of dollars of gains in that stock either the end of last year beginning of this year I can't remember which right and think about all that and that's just in the public account that's not even including private portfolios when it comes to meta oh my gosh but it was coming through with those big buys in the second half of 2022 that came in clutch The first half of 2025, I was definitely buying pretty darn heavy, you know, when we were going through the whole liberation day and all that drama, right? Those buys came through clutch, right? And 2020 also helped huge when obviously we know what happened in 2020, right? And so that's when you're going to get the stocks for the most attractive prices. When you're going through these time periods when it's down and out, when people have no confidence in the market, when they have no confidence in stocks, when you see even great companies selling off 25, 30, 40, 50%, right? Some even 60, 70%. That's when you get the best deals out there. And you've got to take advantage of every single time. And don't worry about getting it at the perfect price. If you're buying a great company, listen, Meta, Meta went from 350 to 88 in the peak 2021 to the trough 2022 crash. 350 to 88. If you bought Meta at 125, yeah, it still went down a lot. 100, you know, down to 88 from 125. It's a lot. Even if you bought at 150, that's a big fall. That's like a 50% fall roughly, right? uh you're still a genius for buying at 150, you know, and you could have kept buying at 125 and at 100 and at 90, right? So, you know, don't don't worry about the short term. If you're buying truly great company with great long-term growth prospects over the next 10, 15 years, shoot, you know, whatever you end up buying at is going to end up being a steal in the end, and you'll just be happy you bought, right?

Now, also remember, this is extremely important for everybody watching this right now, okay? OG's will know this. What happens in the stock market? Well, it takes the elevator down and the stairs up. And this is why people go so bearish so much faster than bullish, right? Market bottoms Q4 2022. It took people a year to a year and a half to start finally turning bullish on the market. Market had already been skyrocketing higher off those 2022 lows. Tons of stocks were moving huge. It doesn't matter what you look at. Nvidia, Meta, the whole the whole host of them, right? AMD was $55 at the lows during that 2022 crash. And yet people were so slow to go. And when I say people, I'm talking about specifically Wall Streeters and actually retail sadly enough, right? It took them so long to flip over the bullish side. It took them a year, year and a half. Meanwhile, all it takes is a couple months of downward moves in the market and woo, Wall Streeters are negative. It happens so quick. elevator down, stairs up, right? And so that's something to really keep in mind in regards to the stock market. And to illustrate this point the best way I can to close off this markets cook situation, then we'll get into what I sold today and what I bought. Look at this. This is AI investor sentiment. Okay, look at when we hit a one-year bullish high for AI investor sentiment. This is how investors are feeling about the market the next six months. We hit a bullish high January 14th, 2026, about two months ago, just over two months ago, right? Nearly 50% of investors were feeling bullish on the market the next 6 months. And look at how fast it switched. In recent weeks, we've got horrible numbers. Keep in mind, usually 31% of investors are bearish on the market the next 6 months. We hit a 46% number, 52% number, and 50% number. Unbelievable, ladies and gentlemen. Unbelievable. That illustrates how quick things switch in the stock market, especially to the downside. All it took was it took less than two months for for us to go from like a one-year bullish high to like an insane amount of people bearish on the market in the next 6 months. Took less than two months. Right now, after you go through a big bare market, a downtrending market, it takes quite a bit longer to start people to start feeling bullish again consistently. So, do keep that in mind. Right?

What do I always tell you guys? Buy the dip, never trip. Right? Buy the debt, never trip. When you get these type of opportunities, you're going to look back and be like a happy camper. You were buying, right? And you never know how long a downtrending market can last. It could last for a few weeks. It could last for a few months. It can last for two years. You don't know. Anything's possible, right? Look at the great financial crisis. Market down trended for like 2 years. Brutal, right? Buy the dip. Never trip. And some people say, you know, I'm out of money. I'm out of money. Um, listen. Go get some money. Go get some money. Go get some money. Okay? Like, you should never be out of money. If you know what's the number one thing I tell you to be a successful investor in the market, you've got to do over everything else. And if you've been watching my channel religiously for years, you know this. more income than expenses. That's the most important thing before we worry about income statements, balance sheets, cash flows, using thousandx to like figure out projections on companies and which stocks going to give you the best ROI. Before we listen to conference calls on 1000x and we compare three companies side by side in 1000x and do all that fancy stuff before we worry about any of that more income than expenses. If you don't have more income than expenses every month, you you're playing the game all wrong. So, there should be no such thing as I'm out of money because you should always have more money coming in. Some of you guys, maybe you can invest a few hundred bucks a month, right? into your portfolio. Other people watching this, you can invest thousands and some of my big dogs that are watching this channel, you guys can invest tens of thousands or hundreds of thousand dollars every month in the market, right? It doesn't matter what stage you're at. Go get some money and invest more money. That's as simple as that, man. I don't care if you got to do Uber Eats, Door Dash, like it doesn't matter. I mean, shoot, these jobs probably won't even exist in a decade from now, right? You know, go Uber drive, go lift drive, do whatever you got to do. Like, this is a time period. Get a second job. Do whatever you got to do during this sort of time period. Get your money. Get your money because you do not want to miss buying when the market's going through drama phase like, no, no, no, no. We We use those times to buy. So, get some dang money. I never want to hear that as an excuse about, "Oh, I'm out of money. Go get some money. Go get some money." And if you ever hear somebody muse that excuse, "Oh, I have no more money to buy." Go get some money. Tell them. You tell them. You tell them. Go get some money. Cuz believe me, the money doesn't just disappear. You know how much money's in the economy? I was in my new neighborhood yesterday uh driving to the new house, right? Oh my gosh, the you know, obviously people are loaded in that community. And I mean, the amount of landscaping and like, you know, maintenance these people have on these these mansions and like oh my gosh, like how many people make so much money off that? I paid $67,000 to get all these speakers in my house and all these TVs and all this fancy new equipment in my new house. I got scammed, man. $67,000 I paid for this. It was three guys. They drove three trucks. That's when you know you're getting scammed. They showed up in three fancy trucks for three guys. I'm like, "Dude, you guys could have just all went in the same truck. You guys need to drive three different trucks like or three different vans." I'm like, I already knew I was getting bent over in regards to that situation. So, anyways, go get some money, man. Go get some money. Never never use that as an excuse.

Number two. All right, let's talk about what stock I sold today. 100%. Now we'll get into what stocks I bought. Well, I did it. TSLZ. This is my Tesla hedge. So, made about $7,000 on the rest of this hedge in the public account and decided to get out today. My plan with this last part of my hedge, my TSLZ hedge, has always been what? Well, if you're in the private group, you know what it is. I don't you know if you're not in the private group you might not know what it is but basically my my plan with the TSLZ hedge has been once the NASDAQ's over 10% down from alltime highs I'm getting out of it right and so that's what I did with TSLZ which means what Tesla stock's really going to tank now right Tesla stock's probably going to go to 200 I'm be like why did I not stay in TSLZ longer right I'll get all mad and I'll frustrate it just like I did with Dualingo and all those other ones I made a bunch of money on and then didn't hold for long enough don't even get me started on a little dingo. I I can't go there mentally. Okay. But, you know, I didn't make nearly as much on this hedge as I hope and I expected. So, I'm actually kind of, you know, it was nice to make money. I think the main thing is if I put that into long positions under the same time, I mean, they'd be down. Like, like almost every single stock out there is down, you know, over that amount of time from when I was, you know, buying that hedge. I got in a little too early. If I would have waited until the beginning of this year or the very end of the year, I would have done better, but it is what it is. Um, still took a profit and I moved that money into some other positions, right? And once again, don't, you know, I wouldn't be surprised if Tesla still goes down more this year. I I would not be surprised. You just know how I hedge. If you watch me a lot, you know how I like to hedge, especially if you're in the private group. I like to make my money and move out. And I made my money. made what $7,000 or so and you know moved out to the other side.

So what did I stocks did I buy here today? Well, okay. So where do we start? So the TSLZ got out of that 1574. By the way, it's already over 16, so I already could have sold higher, right? Um what did I buy? I bought 1,334 shares of Fubo. Fubo is a very speculative position obviously in the public account. Very small position. Um it's been relentlessly sold. No one wants to own a Fubo in this market. We're so risk off. No one wants to own that sort of stock, but once we go risk on, I think it's going to have a fun time. The question is when do we go risk on again, right? Honest, another good example of, you know, this is a stock no one wants to own right now, right? I picked up 4,600 shares of Honest here today, HNST, at $2.88. No one wants to hold, you know, buy these sorts of stocks. We're in a super riskoff market, but me as a long-term investor, I don't care. Fubo is a speculative play. I have that's a long-term play. We'll see how it turns out, right? Um I don't care like if no one wants to own risk on stocks right now. Honest, that's a longer term play. I think honest ends this year $5 plus regardless of market conditions. I might be wrong in that. We'll see. But that I'm also thinking about honest in regards to several years out. And so, you know, yeah, no one wants to go risk on right now. So, these stocks just can't get any momentum. And that's fine. Like I it is what it is, right? Adobe. Oh, Adobe. So, Adobe ADB here. Uh, bought 36 shares. $240 I paid for those shares. $8,600 move. I mean, Adobe's at what is Adobe's forward PE right now? 10 nine. It's just ridiculous. Like, you know, we'll see. We'll see. I think it's extremely undervalued and time will tell in regards to that. American Express. Uh, I I'm so thankful to get shares under 300 this stock. And if this stock stays under 300, I'm going to buy as many shares I can possibly get my hands on for the next for basically the remainder of this year. This is one I'm not planning on wrapping up my buys anytime soon. I would love to buy as many American Express shares as I possibly can get my hands on as long as it's under 300. Over 300 is still a good long-term deal. It's just under 300 is like really where I'm very excited. So, I bought another $7,400 worth of American Express today. Estee Lauder Eel stock, I bought 16 shares here today. 69.88. That was just a $1,000 move there. I already got a pretty big E position. Um, and that's a stock anything I can get under 100. That and ELF, I love it. I love it. Give me everything you can give me, you know, under 100 in regards to EL and and ELF. Nike, I bought 47 shares here today. That was about a $2,400 move. And then Salesforce CRM, I bought 25 shares today. That was about a $4,600 move. $185 I paid for those shares there. Salesforce, Nike, those positions are pretty much fully built now. So, I highly doubt you'll see me buy any more Salesforce or Nike. Eel, I'm pretty darn close to fully built out. American Express, on the other hand, as long as that stock's under 300, I'll buy for this whole dang year. Um, it really comes down to is it under 300 or not. And the further it's under 300, the heavier I buy. Adobe, I'm about fully built on Adobe as well. So, I would say I'm about done buying Adobe Honest. I could own some more Honest, honestly. No pun intended. And then, uh, Fubo, Fubo is very speculative, so if I buy any more, it'll be a very small amount of Fubo, right? And then as far as TSLZ, would I ever come back in it? I usually don't like to revisit my hedges. They're kind of like an X, like, you know, you cut them loose, that's it. But TSLZ, I'm kind of tempted to just because I think there's a potential that stock could go down significantly when SpaceX IPO happens because then you're going to have the new exciting toy. I think you're going to get a lot of selling in Tesla leading up to that and even after for a bit and people moving money into SpaceX. So, but we'll see. Like I might not come back into it. I might just leave that be where that's going to be, right?

You have to decide. You have a decision you can make. You can get caught up into all the short-term stuff that's happening this year, right? You can get caught up into the market drama. You can get caught up in what Trump's doing in the Middle East. You can get caught up in all this stuff, right? And you can worry about that and make your decisions based just upon what's happening this year, right? Or you can try to position your portfolio for the next decade. And it's up to you. That's a choice. You you have a very simple choice here. I like to focus on where my portfolio is a decade from now, not where my portfolio is this year. If the public account says 2.2 million, 3.2 2 million, 4.2 million, 5.2 million this year. It doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things. I'm worried about 2036 when I hope the public count's a $20 million portfolio. That's what I'm worried about. That's where my focus is. I want the public account in 2036 to be a 20 million plus dollar portfolio. And so whether it's 2, three, four, 5 million right now is irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. I'm focused on the next decade. I appreciate you for joining me for today's video. I hope you appreciate me. share all my thoughts and opinions, all that good stuff with you guys.
