The markets are recovering. They are cautious, but there is a palpable enthusiasm. And it is contagious.

I never advise people on the market, but...

If you aren't in, it might be time to consider it.

QQQ is always a safe but solid play.

And keep an eye on Nvidia if you're brave.

NVIDIA is one stock I bought that has done nothing but gone down for the last two months. I am in for the long haul though.

I bought a lot of energy stocks in the last 2 months, many were down over 10% for no reason but panic selling. Most are back over their lows already and some are paying dividends already also,

When the market drops that much simply on the President announcing a change, its buying time...

What’s amazing is how President Trump is playing everyone like a fiddle - nobody wants to follow China’s example and get ground into the dust by Trump.

Our trading partners all love President Trump now - just for not kicking the snot out of them as bad as he did China.

Wall Street even feels fortunate they got a reprieve.

Personally, I would rather he just kick the snot out of everyone - scorched earth - but I trust he knows the best way to play out his hand.
