Let’s just wait ✋️ for a clear breakout

📈 more bullish

Or more bearish 📉

[GVI Forex 2]

NAS100 (NASDAQ) 1 HOUR

Breaking its former record high (26224) puts NAS100 in unchartered waters where resistance is a guess..

Ussing the “50” level. 26500 is the next pivotal resistance.

Otherwise, needs to hold above 26224 for a strong bid while only back below 25950 would indicate a pause and cool the risk..

[Mtl JP]

one good insight and a possible investing suggestion:
“‘Guns vs. butter’: IMF flags tough trade-offs as governments ramp up defense spending”

BUT note that this theory is nothing new in the field of Economics
Chapter 9 in Intro to Economics 101 even in 3rd-tier schools

[GVI Forex 2]

US500 (SP500) 1 HOUR

When in unchartered waters, resistance is a guess so use the new high (7043) and the “50” level (7050) as initial levels. If broken, then 7080-00

If they hold, then upside slows but still keeps a bid while above 7000, stronger if above the former 7014 record high.

Below 7000 would cool the risk.

Guess who is offering advice and warning to Iran

Hegseth warns Iranian leaders to ‘choose wisely’ on deal with US: ‘We are locked and loaded’ Fox

…Hegseth was joined at Thursday’s briefing by Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Dan Caine and U.S. Central Command Commander Adm. Brad Cooper, who recently returned from the front lines.

Hegseth said Cooper is making sure the U.S. military “continues to implement an ironclad blockade and ensures that our forces are maximally postured to restart combat operations should this new Iranian regime choose poorly and not agree to a deal.”

More from the article

The current disconnect between paper and physical Brent ​is as wide as it has ever been…

One explanation for this optimism is the widespread market belief – or hope – that Trump will avoid prolonging the conflict for fear of driving U.S. gasoline prices sharply higher…

But that optimism flies in the face of the reality on ​the ground – Middle East oil production and exports would take months, if not years, to recover to pre-war levels even once Hormuz is fully reopened….

This is from a Reuters article that said Dated Brent physical crude delivered to Northwrst Europe is trading at $120/bbl and North Sea Forties price hit almost $150 recently

LONDON – The Iran war has torn open a dangerous rift in global oil markets: physical crude is trading at record highs while futures benchmarks signal calm. That disconnect is forcing consumers, companies and policymakers to navigate without a reliable compass – and it could leave a lasting scar on the global economy….truncated
