I just said something dumb on live TV

Just got off the air with Schwab Network.

Live TV.

And I said something most traders would think is crazy.

I told them I’m NOT touching tech right now. Even though it’s the only thing working. Even though the S&P is about to print new all-time highs. Even though Nvidia and Amazon are the only reason we’re not underwater.

Here’s the thing…

When EVERYONE is chasing the same trade… that’s usually when the real opportunity is somewhere else.

So while the entire market is piling into the Magnificent Seven, I just gave them three trades that have nothing to do with any of them.

One’s in retail. One’s a hedge most people don’t even know exists. And the third? A name that just got absolutely destroyed… but might not be done falling.

I walked through all three on air. 

The setups. The levels. The exact expiration dates I’m using. Even Rick (Schwab’s head technician) broke down the charts with me.

And honestly? I’m not sure how much longer this window stays open.

Because once the tech rally stalls… (and it will, they always do)… everyone’s gonna rotate into the EXACT trades I just laid out.

So if you want to see all three trades…

Watch the full breakdown here

The whole thing’s only 14 minutes. And by the end, you’ll know exactly what I’m watching… and why.

To your success,

Don Kaufman
