Jobs report storm is brewing 🌪️

The odds of a rate cut hang in the balance

September 03, 2025

*together with Paladin Power

Good evening, Folks!

Fantastic ENCORE interview with easily one of my favorite private companies right now - Paladin Power. Fair warning: If you watch this you will either want to BUY what they’re selling or INVEST in what they’re doing.

But give this a deep dive tonight (before football kicks off tomorrow!) and let me know what you think. WATCH HERE. 

And besides what’s happening with Paladin…

Tech led the pack today, boosting the S&P 500 and Nasdaq while the Dow got left behind.

The tech rally was fueled largely by Google avoiding tough antitrust penalties and finishing the day up 9%.

We also got some of the softest job openings data in years this morning…

CNBC notes that the 7.18 million figure is “only the second reading under the 7.2 million level since the end of 2020.” That includes the Covid era, folks.

We’ll get more jobs data tomorrow morning with the ADP employment readout, and on Friday with the BLS jobs numbers. 

If those come in at or below expectations, I think that it will only confirm a likely rate cut at the Fed meeting later this month.

One possible — though very unlikely — outcome would be if the numbers came in way above expectations and undermined the case for a rate cut.

If that’s the case, get ready for a rocky end of the week!

I mention that because President Trump fired the BLS director after the bureau released a poor July jobs report. The folks in charge now may want to make the boss happy, but if they do, Chair Powell may make him sad in a few weeks.

On the “tactical trading” front, the stock I have lined up for tomorrow has a quiet setup I’m really liking.

Earlier this year, it got rid of a media asset, refocused its efforts, and shored up its balance sheet.

It also launched a new treasury strategy with the backing of some well-known crypto players. 

But unlike many companies making similar moves, its focus is on Ethereum, which has more than doubled since early April — trouncing bitcoin’s rally.

And get this, the Company just reported that its stock price is trading under the value of the digital assets it holds.

I don’t think the stock has fully priced these moves yet, and that’s where it could get interesting for short-term traders – possibly an explosive move soon! 💥

📬 I’ll spell out the full game plan in your inbox at 9:00 am ET tomorrow. Grab a coffee and be ready — this one has a history of incredible moves.

To Your Success,
