Three months into 2026, and the S&P 500 and tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 are both down.
If you’ve been watching the headlines, you have a good idea why: software stocks getting crushed, a new slate of global tariffs, and the Iran conflict sending oil prices up 40%.
But… if you’ve been sticking with me, you had the opportunity to make a ton of money on Microsoft and other software names… That’s because I absolutely love volatile markets. You can make the best money in this environment if you know what to do.
And that’s why on Saturday, I sat down with TradeSmith Daily editor Michael Salvatore. He wanted to grill me on what I think is going on… why I believe you can take any stock trade idea and, with options, make more money with less risk every single time.
Check out our interview below.
Best regards and good trading,
