Don Kaufman here. I had a great time on Schwab TV this morning breaking down what’s really happening in this market. Everyone’s asking: Is AI a bubble? Here’s what I told them – we’re in the latter innings, and it’s all about rotation now. Google versus Nvidia. That’s it. That’s all that’s really left driving
Don Kaufman here. First things first – I’m going live at 2 PM Eastern today to break down exactly how to trade this insane volatility we’re seeing. The market’s gone completely schizophrenic, and if you’re not positioned correctly, you’re going to get run over. Join me in 15 minutes. Now, about Google gaining a trillion
Don Kaufman here. I think Bitcoin is the biggest pile of crap ever, and it has nothing to do with the technology. It’s because you can see what everyone’s doing on it. And that p****s me off to no end. As a trader, do you want full transparency? It’s like playing a game of cards
Don Kaufman here. My phone was ringing all week. People calling me, freaking out. “Don, what’s happening? NVIDIA crashed! What do we do?” Then Friday hits and suddenly it’s “Don, we’re up 700 points! Should I buy the rally?” I’m sitting there looking at my screens thinking: Are you kidding me? The Dow swung 1,400
Don Kaufman here. So this morning the Dow was ripping 700 points. Nvidia beat earnings, Jensen Huang said Blackwell demand is “off the charts,” and you know what I’m hearing all over Twitter? “The bear thesis is falling apart.” Everyone’s partying. Tech stocks flying. Meta up 10%. Tesla up 4%. Dogs and cats living together
Don Kaufman here. I just wrapped up Schwab’s Trading 360 show. Marley and Kayden had me break down three trades live on air. Roblox. Bitcoin ETF. Netflix. Three completely different setups. Three different strategies. But here’s the thing… Each one is based on the same core principle I’ve been hammering: we’re not in a “buy
Don Kaufman here. What do you do for a living? I’m short crap. For 27 years. And I’m loving it. That’s my response when strangers ask about my career. While most traders are getting chopped up in today’s fourth straight losing session, I’m sitting pretty – having closed my XLE position for a 30% gain
Don Kaufman here. So I’m watching everyone obsess over NVIDIA earnings this week, and honestly, I get it. But there’s something else happening that’s got my attention. I heard the term “CDS” more in the last two months than I’ve heard in the previous 15 years. CDS stands for credit default swaps – basically insurance
While everyone’s rushing into beaten-down AI stocks, nuclear plays, and quantum names after they got trampled the last few weeks, I’m doing something that shocked my own team in a closed-door meeting: I have zero long-term stock positions. The market rallied hard today after this morning’s selloff. People are calling it “buying the dip.” But
Don Kaufman here. Here’s a truth nobody wants to face. The entire financial sector – every bank in America combined – doesn’t equal the market cap of two tech stocks. Let me break this down with actual numbers that’ll make you question everything you think you know about diversification. The Shocking Math JP Morgan is
