$NEAR I chased this 17% surge around $4.6, and now it’s at $5.35, giving me a 16% unrealized gain. But honestly, I nearly got shaken out yesterday.
Let’s review the trade. The 24h low was $4.52.

It actually tells me we're at the beginning of a bull market cycle and are about to break out more strongly to the upside from here. $SUI The same goes for this. The MACD is curling upward nicely, and we just witnessed a regular market correction.

September core CPI rose 0.33% month over month, marking a strong gain for the second consecutive month; PPI rose 1.3% month over month, its biggest increase since March 2022. With the data right in front of them, the market had expected Warsh to emphasize that “inflation is too high,” but he did not mention the data at all. He said: “I will not prejudge the outcome of the meeting. I do not believe in saying right now what I might do at the upcoming meeting.”
That statement is more worth pondering than any hawkish rhetoric. Since taking office, Warsh has twice declined to publish an interest-ra

Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh deliberately avoided any clear signal on the rate path during a fireside chat at the IMF-World Bank Annual Meetings in Bangkok today, even as the latest data showed US inflationary pressures reaccelerating.
