[Image] September 8th, 2024 | Issue 250   Hello , It seems like everywhere you turn these days, pickleball is popping up. Just last week, a group of my friends and I started a new pickleball club, and before I knew it, we were all hooked. From casual weekend games to ultra-competitive matches, it’s become a fast-paced obsession—well, unless you’re nursing a back injury like I am. Whether you're playing for fun or driven by the thrill of competition, the pickleball craze has swept everyone off their feet. Courts are springing up left and right, taking over everything from tennis courts to unused spaces in once-forgotten shopping malls. Even the pros are getting in on the action, with major athletes endorsing this "sport of the moment."  It reminds me of how certain trends can take the market by storm. Just like the pickleball courts popping up everywhere, we’ve seen major investment trends like Bitcoin, electric vehicles (EVs), and artificial intelligence (AI) reach new heights. The key with any trend, whether in sports or stocks, is knowing when the mania will end and how much exposure you're comfortable with.  This week, we saw a similar wave of excitement hit the financial markets as the latest labor reports were released. Much like gauging your readiness to dive headfirst into a new hobby, investors are eyeing the data closely, weighing how much risk they want to take amid shifting market conditions. Just as pickleball doesn’t seem to be fading anytime soon, neither does the hype around emerging sectors like weight loss drugs, which have captured investor attention recently.  In this week's newsletter, we’ll break down how these reports impacted the markets and explore which trends you might want to "serve up" in your portfolio next.

With the Nasdaq down 5.5% this week, the timing is right for those looking to hedge their portfolios. As detailed in the "Current Trading Landscape" section, the tech-heavy QQQ has dropped below its 50-day moving average, signaling that the selling pressure is far from over. Weak labor data, wage inflation, and weaker-than-expected economic reports have reinforced the hard-landing narrative, and while some investors are betting on interest rate cuts, the market's immediate path remains highly uncertain. PSQ allows investors to profit from further weakness in the Nasdaq 100 without directly shorting individual stocks. This ETF is designed for short-term trading and works particularly well when market conditions are volatile, as they are now. The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) has spiked above 20, and the sentiment across global markets is risk-averse. With key support levels being tested across multiple indices and tech stocks facing headwinds, PSQ is positioned to perform well in the near term. My A.I. models have flagged PSQ as a strong candidate for the week, identifying growing momentum in the short space. The models are tracking key resistance and support levels across the Nasdaq, and with no clear catalyst for a rebound, PSQ offers a solid hedge against further downside in the tech sector. By incorporating PSQ into your strategy, you can mitigate risk and potentially capitalize on the continued market turbulence.  In this volatile environment, hedging with PSQ could offer some much-needed protection as the market correction unfolds. Stay cautious, avoid chasing rebounds, and consider positioning defensively with this inverse ETF as a way to navigate the uncertainty.  This week, I’ll be adding ProShares Short QQQ (PSQ) to my portfolio!
