S&P Futures are lower this morning as geopolitical issues in the Middle East continue to weigh on the market's sentiment. News reports that President Trump's plans to make a decision in two-week on potential U.S. military action against Iran has yet to turn markets higher.  President Trump is schedule to hold a national Security meeting later this morning. Fed policy remains on hold as officials continue to wait for inflation data to move higher due to the Trump Tariffs. Fed officials now see slower GDP growth, higher unemployment and more inflation this year versus the previous projection. On the earnings front, KR, ACN, DRI & KMX are scheduled to report this morning.

S&P Futures are essentially flat this morning with economic data in focus. This morning the weekly Jobless Claims are due out and this afternoon there is a Fed announcement on monetary policy. The update to the Dot Plot data could spark some volatility. The G7 meeting wrapped up yesterday with no trade deal news. The July 9th deadline for trade deals is weeks away and so far no deals have been announced. Israel targeted weapons and nuclear sites in Iran overnight as the conflict entered its sixth day and the U.S. is said to be considering joining Isreal in its offensive. Iran's leader is scheduled to give a speech today. The Senate yesterday passed the Genius Act to regulate cryptocurrencies. On the earnings front, LZB is lower after its earnings report. KR, ACN, DRI & KMX are scheduled to report Friday morning.

Can the heartland states save our country? The heartland states are 20 states pretty much in the center of the country. They have been regaining economic strength over the years and currently about 39% of the US population lives in these states, according to the census bureau for 2024. The population growth in this area was above the rest of the country for the last five years with numbers that have not been seen in over 65 years. Employers in this area grew by 13.2% between 2020 to 2023 and business capital expenditures totaled $76.9 billion in 2023 and have seen an average annual growth of 9.43% since the beginning of Covid. These 20 states on average have established more business-friendly policies along with tax incentives and grant programs that draw businesses to their area. The East and the West Coast just can't seem to compete with the affordability of states in the middle of America. These mid America states have lower cost for land and utilities are far less being as much as 1/3 less than the rest of the country. This is according to the Energy Information Administration (EIA). The overall cost of living is lower, so wages can also be lower and still provide a good standard of living for their employees. In my opinion, states like California and others need to wake up and realize that perhaps stats in Middle America are on to something with policies that are attracting new residents. It would appear that foreign companies coming to the United States would build and prosper in one of these 20 states rather than states that are against business or have high taxes and other costs.   Consumer actions aren't matching their words We continue to see negative surveys about consumer confidence and sentiment, but you wouldn't think consumers feel bad after looking at the recent retail sales report. March sales climbed 4.6% compared to last year and if gas stations, which fell 4.3%, are excluded the report was even more impressive as it climbed 5.3%. Some of this is likely due to concerns over looming tariffs as consumers pull forward demand before expected price increases. Some areas that are likely more impacted did see large gains as motor vehicle and parts dealers saw an increase of 8.8% and sales at furniture and home furnishing stores climbed 7.7%. With those said gains were quite widespread in the report and areas that would not see a pull forward in demand like food services and drinking places still saw a nice gain of 4.8%. If people were truly worried about the economy, they would not be spending money at restaurants, especially considering the fact that dining out has gotten quite expensive. While I am expecting the tariffs to have a short-term impact on the economy, we must remember the consumer is coming from a point of strength with relatively low debt levels, a low unemployment rate, and balance sheets that have seen asset prices significantly increase over the last several years. I continue to believe that our economy and the consumer will be able to whether this volatility, but the numbers will likely decelerate from here. We will continue to watch these reports closely, but I again remain confident we will get through the concerns about these tariffs.   Are TV networks tapped out on sports deals? Last year Disney signed a $2.6 billion a year deal with the NBA; however, ESPN said goodbye after a 35-year relationship with the MLB where they were paying $550 million a year for their package of games. One area of growth that surprised me was Formula One car racing as over the last six years it has seen viewership double to 1.1 million viewers in a season. Liberty Media, who owns F1, is trying to get a rights package between $150-$180 million a year and all they're hearing is crickets. Research firms estimate that it is worth over $100 million but it is not at the $150-$180 million that Liberty wants. Netflix, Warner Bros. Discovery, Fox, Amazon and NBC are not showing much interest in the asset. Netflix will probably not bid since there's no real gain for them considering the estimate that 75% of F1 fans already have Netflix subscriptions. With so many people having Netflix, multiple big dollar sports packages probably don't make much sense for the company. In a couple of months around June, Warner Brothers is distributing an Apple film called F1, starring Brad Pitt. If you want to watch this movie, which is projected to be a blockbuster, you must subscribe to Apple TV. I almost feel like I want to add Apple TV to the five or six other subscriptions I have, but I can't watch everything I have access to now, so I should probably resist.   Financial Planning: Why Life Insurance Is a Poor Retirement Vehicle (And What to Do Instead) Cash value life insurance is often pitched as a tax-free retirement strategy. On the surface it sounds great. You get tax-deferred growth, tax-free loans, no contribution limits, and a death benefit, but when you look under the hood the numbers often don't work out. First, the returns simply don't compare. With Indexed Universal Life (IUL) or Whole Life, your cash value growth is limited by caps and participation rates, and you miss out on dividends. Add in the cost of insurance, admin fees, and other hidden charges, and the actual return on cash value often falls well below the market. Second, the fees get larger over time. The older you get, the higher your cost of insurance becomes which directly eats into your cash value. If you're taking policy loans and the policy lapses, you could even get hit with a massive tax bill in retirement. Third, the opportunity cost is huge. The high premiums needed to fund a policy could instead be invested in assets with better returns, more liquidity, and lower fees. Meanwhile, better tools for tax-free retirement income already exist. Most 401(k)s now offer a Roth option, allowing you to contribute after-tax dollars and grow your money tax-free, exactly what cash value life insurance offers. You can pair this with a Roth IRA or even a Backdoor Roth IRA if your income is too high to contribute directly. Together, these vehicles allow for substantial tax-free retirement savings without the complexity, high fees, or risk of policy lapse that come with life insurance. Don't let marketing hype cloud your long-term strategy. Run the numbers and stick with what works.    Companies Discussed: Nvidia (NVDA), Hertz Global Holdings (HTZ), Car Max, Inc. (KMX) & (DOW)

S&P Futures are displaying weakness after yesterday's strong rally, the move lower is considered to be as a result of profit taking. While the 90-day tariff pause was a positive catalyst for markets yesterday, there remains a significant amount of uncertainty as to what will occur after the pause period ends. The Trump administrations economic plan remains a key concern for the markets due to the chaotic nature in policy shifts. Then there are the trade relations with China which are fragile at best as the Trump administration increased the Chinese tariffs and appears to be shifting towards an economic decoupling. On the earnings front KMX is trading lower as they missed on earnings expectations. Tomorrow is the start of earnings season with a host of the major backs set to report. On the economic front the March CPI data & the weekly Jobless Claims data is due out before the bell. There is also a significant number of Fed officials speaking today.

With tariffs impacting vehicle prices, Karl Brauer looks at the pricing fluctuation potential for new and used cars. Looking at Carmax (KMX) and Carvana (CVNA) as two of the largest used vehicle retailers, Karl sees a lot of reach for KMX and says the tricky part will be incremental growth. He says so much of the forward picture for KMX and auto retailers is reliant on tariffs, consumer sentiment and the overall economy. Tom White looks at example options trading strategies in KMX and CVNA.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Instagram You dont have to cover it right away in the podcast...but I have a few scenarios of covid darlings that are beaten down crazy and I am debating if I should DCA or sell and harvest loss. For e.g $MTTR I hold 1500 Instagram Hey Gary. I'm listening to pod now and I'm curious if you could give opinion on $osk, algo has in at 86.83 and it's at 88ish currently Twitter So I emailed you about $VKTX. I think this one could go to 16. What does chart show? Remember it is in the same small category of biotech treating liver disease like MDGL. I sold most of $MDGL yesterday. I don't think much left there after this pop. VKTX? And $vrdn $TSLA - Carter wroth who is the chart master says it's a buy now Ziptrader Charlie went over $tsla $COST - cross up - looks strong $WMT - cross up - looks strong $SNOW - cross up - not as strong, but I do like the stock. $CEG - looks strong in that channel I posted $BA strong move Posted the watch list for the Vanguard ETF lists Instagram I imagine others would enjoy hearing your insights as well! Here are my questions, specifically speaking to $boil and $KOLD, $Soxl and $Soxs and finally $TQQQ and $SQQQ. If I am correct these inherently depreciate in value over time so what is a good indicator that it has moved to a lower price channel? Specifically, how many times of breaking the lower resistance level would you say indicates it's in a new price channel? If something dips for a day comes back up to normal price channel levels, I realize that can just be an anomaly. Secondly, when are these specific etfs thought to completely die off?

We are currently going through a reformation of the power grid, and a revitalization process in how we produce clean energy. Not only are there more ways to create and harness energy than ever before, but there are also new ways to store that energy. The energy storage industry is booming, but the modern batteries we use require one key component; lithium. To continue utilizing and perfecting these batteries, however, requires a sustainable and environmentally sound method of lithium and mineral extraction. On today's Interchange, we had the pleasure of having Zachary Sadow sit down with David for an eye-opening conversation. Zachary is the CEO and Co-founder of KMX Technologies. KMX is an emerging leader in rare Earth mineral extraction and wastewater treatment. Why is this important? Today's modern batteries require high levels of lithium ion, a finite material. KMX is changing the process of how we extract these minerals from the Earth and making sure the wastewater from these processes is returned to its pure form. Not only is KMX improving wastewater treatment processes, but they are in turn improving living conditions around these sites as well.In this episode, David queries Zac on the traditional processes for extracting lithium. What is the commercial use concentration that the lithium needs to be at? What policy and government action does KMX need to help the progress of its business? As always, we find out if the model is viable, and the technology tried and tested.Follow us on Twitter @theinterchangeThe Interchange is brought to you by JinkoSolar, a leading solar panel manufacturer and energy storage integrator.JinkoSolar now offers energy storage for a variety of residential, C&I, and utility projects.To learn more about Jinko's EAGLE Storage products visit www.jinkosolar.us/interchange.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Global demand for lithium is increasing at a faster clip than it was forecasted.

Its concentration in the brine is one of the challenging steps in the mineral processing. Zachary Sadow, Chairman & CEO at KMX Technologies, discusses how KMX membrane technology facilitates a separation of pure water and valuable minerals such as lithium from brine and waste-streams at low temperature and pressure.

During the 1990s the west coast was a hotbed of recumbent biking innovation. A dedicated group of bent builders and riders began exchanging ideas and ride time and in Oregon the OHPV sprang to life. Lonnie Morse has been a key part of the group for most of the ensuing years and joins us to share some details and lots of great stories. Next we welcome back Italian bent enthusiast Marco Ruga. He wowed our viewers a few weeks ago with the amazing laidback creations he builds and the comments lit up demanding he come back to share more. He will talk about his latest racing bike and give us a glimpse into the dangers of riding on Italian roads. Finally, we are very excited to be a part of the TerraTrike Riderfest trike giveaway contest. Marketing director Marshall Randall will talk about WizWheelz trikes including TerraTrike, Greenspeed and KMX then answer all your questions in an AMA. To wrap it all up he will draw a name live for the winner of a new trike of your choice from among the Riderfest entries.You can watch the YouTube video here: https://youtu.be/I_qECN9b0ho**Clickable Table of Contents for this month’s video**00:00:00 Intro00:00:47 What’s on Today’s Show00:03:00 Panel Introduction00:06:12 Sponsor Introduction00:07:25 Lonnie Morse and the Oregon Human Powered Vehicle group past and present01:11:30 Marco Ruga on testing his racing bike build and the dangers of riding Italian roads 01:45:14 Marshall Randall with the WizWheelz trike lineup, AMA and Riderfest prize drawing02:20:15 Sponsor Thanks02:21:30 Recumbent Cycle-Con 2020 status update from Chuck Coyne02:23:05 Coming up next month02:25:00 How you can support the Laidback Bike ReportPlease subscribe to us on YouTube https://goo.gl/CHOOgX and Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/laidbackbikereport/ if you haven't already done so.

Do they give tornadoes names as they do tropical storms? We'd like to propose the name Tappin for the tornado that we recently dodged in Alabama. Tappin the Land Turtle "Tappin the Land Turtle" is an African-American fable about a turtle whose family was hungry because times were so hard. But he noticed that the uppity eagle had plenty of food for his babies. So he asked the eagle about this, and enlisted the eagle's help in finding more food. But when he incurred the eagle's displeasure, he ended up on a magical adventure that brought him even more abundance than he'd anticipated. It's a tale that goes back to the days of slavery and incorporates several reminders of that era: the hunger, the separation of "higher" and "lower" classes (the turtle and the eagle) and the dream of a life of plenty, symbolized bt the cornucopia-like dipper. In some versions of the story, Tappin returns to the Sea King and receives an enchanted cowhide, which, as it turns out, whips everyone (like the overseer on a plantation) and causes the markings on Tappin's shell, like those on every turtle thereafter. Hiding from Tornadoes in Alabama We thought about this story because we were rather like a turtle ourselves when the tornado whipped through. We'd just performed a couple of shows in Ozark, AL., and heard that severe storms were on the way. Keeping abreast of the developments by listening to the radio, we realized that the twister would bypass us, but we could get hit by hail. So we took refuge under the canopy of a car wash--our own turtle shell. (But we weren't the only ones who got this idea.) We were thoroughly impressed by the work done by the staff of local radio station KMX, who handled the crisis calmly and efficiently, providing up-to-the-minute information and putting in some very long hours. Visit the station's website for the local take on the disaster, and some information about how you can contribute to relief efforts. George Washington Carver TriviaWe also talk about Dr. George Washington Carver, a former slave who settled in Alabama and became one of the world's great scientists, despite not even obtaining a high school education until his twenties. How many products did Dr. Carver derive from the peanut? The answer may astonish you! And be the first to hear the news about an upcoming Roller Coaster Tycoon project that Zephyr is working on for the web site. Happy Listening, Dennis (Eagle/King), Kimberly (Narrator) and Zephyr (Tappin) Goza
