Iran's Ceasefire Collapses, SpaceX Is Wildly Overvalued
The US-Iran ceasefire effectively collapsed over the weekend, and crude jumped back above $74 on the news. Jerremy Alexander Newsome and Dave Conley walk through the tech market's gap-down open and the case for a pullback toward the 50-day moving average on the Nasdaq-100, plus why Jerremy is aggressively short SpaceX — targeting $70–100 a share against its near-$3 trillion peak valuation. They break down the real mechanism behind Fed rate policy: the federal government competing with everyday borrowers for debt buyers, which keeps rates elevated regardless of what the Fed does with its own target. Grocery prices, tariffs, and the politics of the Middle East round out the conversation, along with a preview of Tesla, Meta, and NVIDIA earnings.
