The IMF's warning that the Iran war adds an inflation scar through 2027, paired with oil prices jumping on Trump's comments, means inflation is top of mind. Don't expect easy Fed easing if prices stay sticky. Meanwhile, Honda's recall on 300,000 vehicles is just noise. The real takeaway is GLP-1s becoming easy to get online - that's a story for HIMS and its peers, with potential regulatory scrutiny looming. Kevin Warsh’s comments on the Fed scripting could add fireworks before the FOMC Minutes drop at 6 PM.
Today's sideways action demands playing support and resistance. Our open shorts like MSTR held up, and we're watching Pulse for scalps. Watch the FOMC minutes for any regime shift. Explore Radiant's algorithms for unbiased signals.
