Pre Market OCT 1, 2025

Good Morning Traders
Well its here, 2 things actually
The 1st day of the last quarter of the year
And the Govt shutdown is now starting

What is the #1 thing that the stock market doesn’t like?
Yeppppp, you said it, its “uncertainty”

$DJI ( ▲ 0.09% )  
$SPY ( ▲ 0.34% )  
$QQQ ( ▲ 0.48% )  
$IWM ( ▲ 0.22% )  

Those numbers could be changing here soon

If your younger you may never of seen one, back in “the day” we had Repair Shops in every zip code, or nearby. People actually took stuff to be fixed rather than throw it away and go on $AMZN ( ▲ 0.48% ) or to $WMT ( ▼ 1.07% ) Today the closest thing to those is for our phones
When I started welding metal art 5 years ago out in my driveway people would stop by, they’d ask if I fixed stuff. It was never my intention to do so but I started taking on small projects to help people out. Well right now one lady that is in her late 70’s dropped off a old ironing board from the 1950’s
It’s wayyy different than any ironing board out there now, it’s all metal, pulls out in 3 separate directions from underneath ( expands ) and can do so at different angles

We’re anticipating large moves here, up or down, either way, we don’t care, we only want movement, the more the better

We don’t chase stocks
We don’t go long if a stock is red
