Why I’m Focused on ‘Boring’ Stocks for the Biggest FOMC Day in 4 Years

by | Sep 18, 2024

Are you ready for the MASSIVE market redirect on Sept. 20? Events like this happen maybe once a year — join me at noon ET on Thursday to prep!

I just dropped a new video breaking down the action on this big FOMC day. Now, I know there’s a lot of noise out there about what the Fed might do…

But honestly, it’s probably going to be a nothing burger. So, instead of getting caught up in the hype, let’s focus on what’s really moving in the market.

In this video, I dive into some key plays, from the banks to space stocks, and even some potential short squeezes. 

I’ll show you where I’m seeing opportunities, like the BIG pop in U.S. Steel (X), and a massive move in Lennar (LEN). We’ve been crushing it with some of these trades, and I break down the strategy behind them.

So if you want to see what I’m keeping an eye on this week, you won’t want to miss this one. Tune in and let’s keep the momentum going!

As far as interesting order flow, let’s see what’s hitting today with the major FOMC announcement… 

The first stock that comes to mind is SoFi (SOFI), which saw bullish orders hit both scanners the past couple of days…

We saw a couple of weekly expiration, $8 strike calls hit this morning with shares bouncing about 1.5%, and another for next week right after the Fed’s rate announcement, with shares up 2.6% to $8.33. 

Not only that, but we got a bullish long-term order that hit the News Flow Scanner on Monday in the April 2025, $10 calls. 

Is SoFi about to go on an extended run? We shall see!

We also saw back-to-back-to-back short orders in PDD expiring next week. Respect that risk — these short-term plays can go against you in a hurry…

But they sure are cheap!

P.S. A Massive Market Redirect Is Just Days Away 

While everyone else is focused on the FOMC, elections and rising market volatility…

The control of a HUGE chunk of assets will be transferred — LEGALLY — on Sept. 20…

Historically speaking, these kinds of events only happen on 1.58% of trading days each year. 

And when they do, they tend to cause abnormally large moves in under 72 hours…

Now, this has nothing to do with earnings, an indicator or even the Fed’s interest rate decision.

But the good news is… it’s the PERFECT setup for the same signal that’s hit 61 winners so far in 2024…

I cannot promise future returns or against losses but…

As far as I know, this signal can tell us with high accuracy which stocks will likely explode higher once these assets worth trillions of dollars get transferred on Friday.

It’s part of the reason I’m hosting an emergency LIVE session at noon ET on Thursday, Sept. 19!

You see, by the time this rare event happens, most folks would be unprepared…

And it may be too late to take advantage.

So Don’t Miss Out!

The profits and performance shown are not typical, we make no future earnings claims, and you may lose money. From 9/17/21 through 9/06/24, the average win rate is 68.8%. The average weighted rate of return on options trades was 6.84% over a 3 day average hold time.
