Do you ever have “muscle memory” kick in when you don’t need it?
Like be driving somewhere only to take the wrong route bc your so accustomed to going somewhere else when your in that area?
That was me today. I am so used to going to “X” that when I was driving somewhere other than “X” today I drove straight past my turn and then realized what I’d done. That was pure muscle memory 101

That’s what this market is running on this week “Muscle Memory”
And it’s taking us past our turns to get where we’re trying to go
Monday night I spoke about it being a short trading week, and it’s OPEX
I also said look for many names to stall this week, and the ones that go south could do so faster than normal

FEB is not a historically a good month for stocks
MAR is however, it typically is the start of the buildup of new trends that then take up to the start of Summer when we say “Sell in May and go away”
There’s no guarantee that will happen, its just an average of more than not
$WMT ( ▼ 0.68% ) beat this morning then retreated back with some wild swings today, like I said the other day, the selling may not be done here
$GE ( ▲ 1.47% )  😁 You guys already know how much we love GE here, today was no different
Do you remember those old GE commercials from the 70’s?
“GE, it lights up our lives”

Look for continued stagnation and for Theta to burn until close tomorrow, that’s the markets Muscle Memory for OPEX

The Options Coach

What investment is rudimentary for billionaires but ‘revolutionary’ for 70,571+ investors entering 2026?

Imagine this. You open your phone to an alert. It says, “you spent $236,000,000 more this month than you did last month.”

If you were the top bidder at Sotheby’s fall auctions, it could be reality.

Sounds crazy, right? But when the ultra-wealthy spend staggering amounts on blue-chip art, it’s not just for decoration.

The scarcity of these treasured artworks has helped drive their prices, in exceptional cases, to thin-air heights, without moving in lockstep with other asset classes.

The contemporary and post war segments have even outpaced the S&P 500 overall since 1995.*

Now, over 70,000 people have invested $1.2 billion+ across 500 iconic artworks featuring Banksy, Basquiat, Picasso, and more.

How? You don’t need Medici money to invest in multimillion dollar artworks with Masterworks.

Thousands of members have gotten annualized net returns like 14.6%, 17.6%, and 17.8% from 26 sales to date.
