Equities Push Higher & Bond Yields Turn Lower

Happy Valentine's Day and M2 Growth

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone! While it may be a Hallmark holiday, I hope you're all having a lovely day. I had the distinct pleasure of attending an Andrea Bocelli performance last night, and it was, as always, an extraordinary experience. It brought back fond memories of a truly unforgettable occasion when I had the honor of meeting Mr. Bocelli and his wife in New York City at the Metropolitan Opera House. His music has long resonated deeply with me, and given our focus on resonance and vibration, the sheer depth and power of his voice is simply remarkable.

We also saw this Statista chart and since its Valentines Day, here is some data as to “What not to do on a first date,”

We hope each and everyone of you search for those things in life that uplift you, that provide the necessary foundational inspiration for you to achieve everything that you inspire to be. Everything is there for you to do that, trust me, we know, we have been to the depths and back again multiple times. If it is one thing that we are certain of, its never lose hope, never lose faith and never ever give up! If you can do that, you will find the light and you will be driven to places you never thought you could go.

Ok that is it for my inspirational bit, let’s get down to brass tacks and take a look at Coinbase and Palo Alto today as we highlighted their earnings yesterday. First Coinbase where we knew the option call open interest put an extreme bull tilt on the equity into earnings. We highlighted the contrarian viewpoint with a potential put play,

if bearish you can look at the $295/$280 put spread for about $6.70 and a risk/reward profile of 2.23x at full value.

Well here is Coinbase presently and we are certain the market makers are happy with it right around $278 area:

We also looked at Palo Alto highlighting this option play:

So the $195/$185 put spread is $3.75 for a risk/reward profile of 2.67x better than the Coinbase payoff at full value

Although its trading right around $190 will the play is still a small winner but the day’s not out yet and its obvious the 21 and 50 VWMAs have supported it here:
