I also give you my analysis on Palantir Earnings, as well as my updated price prediction.
Hi guys it’s stock curry and the market fell pretty hard today in fact the dow just had its worst day of the entire year so in today’s video i’m gonna show you how to make money when the market goes down including a new way that i’ve never heard any other youtuber talk about so let’s get into it okay the first way that we made money today was by buying put options
Spy is an s p 500 etf we bought an spy put option about an hour before the close once it became apparent that the s p was going to close below the 200-day ema for the past nine days the s p has been trading and consolidation but today it finally broke out to the downside and i think the bearish momentum will continue so that’s why i bought a put option today and
We’re already up over 12 percent on that option now you don’t have to trade options in order to make money while the stock market is dropping there are quite a few stocks that you can buy that are going up as the market goes down a few weeks ago we purchased a gold stock called gldg and that stock is already up over nine percent from where we bought it at just a
Few short weeks ago by the way if you want to learn how i find these plays so that you can make money when the market goes down join my coaching program where i show you how to do technical analysis fundamental analysis and how to trade options the link for the coaching program is in the description of this video now there are also some inverse etfs that will go
Up as the market goes down uvxy and vxx are both tied to the vix which is a measurement of volatility the vix generally goes up as the market goes down and then you’ve got inverse etfs like sqqq and spxu which are both tied to the stock market and those will also go up as the market goes down just be aware that inverse etfs have very high fees and are designed to
Go down over time so i would not hold these longer than a few days because if you hold these too long you will lose money on them and now i want to share a new method for making money when the market goes down it actually this method has been around for decades but i haven’t heard any other youtuber talk about it and the reason for that is probably because it has
Not been available to retail investors until very recently in fact weeble just added this method to their platform a few weeks ago and that is the trading of index options this means you can trade options on the actual market indices rather than on etfs and while it probably doesn’t matter much if you trade xp x which is the s p 500 index or spy which is the s p
500 etf where index options really become exciting are on the vix remember the vix is the measurement of market volatility and it goes up when the market goes down until now though most retail investors did not have access to trade options directly on the vix most retail traders had to trade options on one of the vix etfs such as uvxy and vxx and as you know those
Are designed to go down over time so call options especially are at a disadvantage when trading options on inverse etfs but by trading options directly on the vix you can capture the full upward movement without the downward pressure from the high fees from inverse etfs so to trade index options on weibull just look up any of the supported indices such as vix or
Spx and then click on options they trade just like normal options except they are european style options which means you can’t actually exercise them they are cash settled so when they expire you just receive whatever the cash amount is worth i should also let you know that these are only available on the weibull phone app for now they have not yet been added to
The desktop app yet now if you’re interested in trading these index options but you don’t have a weibull account then i strongly recommend you open one i have multiple brokers i use so you should too and right now weibo is offering a promotion through the end of february where when you sign up using my link in the description below and deposit just one dollar

One dollar and claim your free stocks before the end of this month you only have a few days left to take advantage of this offer now getting into today’s market news i first wanted to let you know that the markets are now pricing in a 65 chance of a 0.25 basis point rate eigen march and only a 35 chance of a 0.5 business point rate hike in march so now if the fed
Only does a 0.25 basis point rate hike in march the market won’t really rise that much because that was mostly already priced in but if the fed does a 0.5 basis point rate hike in march then the market will fall because only a 0.25 basis point rate hike is being priced in now the other thing that we have to watch out for in the march meeting is whether or not the
Fed decides to start selling off their bond assets if the fed decides to start selling off their bond assets that is going to cause the bond yields to rise which is going to have a downward pressure on the stock market and keep in mind that this is not yet priced in so if the fed decides to aggressively sell their bond assets that is going to cause more downward
Pressure on the stock market after the march fed meeting now we also got a lot of news concerning the russia ukraine conflict that came out today that we need to talk about late last night russia said ukraine had fired mortars at russian-backed troops in the contested parts of ukraine news reports are now coming out that shelling is escalated along the front line
Despite a long-standing ceasefire now keep in mind that the shelling back and forth along the front line is common but with the build-up of russian troops at ukraine’s border this is causing concern that this fighting within ukraine could trigger an all that war between russia and ukraine and some of the headlines that came out today were talking about ukraine firing
Mortars into a kindergarten many are speculating that russia now plans to use the ukrainian shelling as justification for war in what is known as a false flag operation so we can probably expect russia to release more news over the next few days talking about how ukraine is shelling russian-backed troops while conveniently leaving out the fact that russian-backed
Troops are firing back and shelling the ukrainians what we do know for sure is that not only is russia adding more troops to the border they are also advancing their troops closer to ukraine’s border and the united states is now losing hope that the russia ukraine conflict can be resolved peacefully this comes after russia expelled the second ranking u.s diplomat
In moscow and accused the united states of failing to agree to security guarantees for russia russia said they would be forced to respond including the use of military and technical measures while russia failed to specify what those measures would be they did reiterate that they do not have plans to invade ukraine yet despite russia’s repeated rhetoric that they
Do not plan to invade ukraine president biden said he thinks a russian attack will occur in the next few days biden said a russian invasion of ukraine is imminent all of these escalations are causing fear in the stock market and sent the stock market plummeting down today with the dow recording its worst day of the year despite the fear in the stock market though
Oil remained fairly flat on thursday the reason oil dropped in spite of the rising escalation in ukraine is because the united states and france moved closer to a deal with iran if that deal goes through it would unlock oil supplies that are currently tied up in iran and a higher supply of oil will cause a downward pressure on the price of oil now while the chance
Of oil falling is a lot higher than the chance of oil rising there is still a risk that oil could climb above a hundred dollars a barrel if russia actually invades ukraine as that will add to concerns that russia might shut off the oil and gas pipelines going into europe in retaliation for european nations supporting ukraine okay now we’re going to get into our
Stock picks i’m going to give you my thoughts on whether or not i’m buying the dips on a couple of stocks we’ll also have to talk about palantir earnings and i also wanted to let you know that the markets are closed on monday so this will be my last video until monday nights so please go enjoy your three day weekend let’s get into these three stocks that we need
To talk about all right before we get into these three stocks i do want to remind you that i am not a financial advisor nothing i talk about today is a recommendation to buy sell or hold these are just my opinions which may or may not be accurate please do your own research before investing in any assets all right the first talk we’re going to talk about today
Is fb this is made of platforms formerly known as facebook invest with henry is looking to sell a credit put spread on fb he thinks the price will go up so he’s looking at the february 25th 195 200 credit bull put spread so long as fb closes at or above 200 on february 25th invests with henry will make a max profit of 62 dollars while risking a max loss of 438
Dollars that means invest with henry will make max profit so long as fba does not fall more than 3.7 percent over the next week and one day of course that is not guaranteed at all as you can see fb fell more than four percent in just one day today and the technicals also remain bearish while i do think fb is undervalued at this point and will probably rise back up
To at least the 223 dollar level trying to time when that will happen is heart fb could continue falling for another week before bottoming out so i would wait to open a bullish option position on fb until after the stock shows some technical signs of bottoming out and rebounding now if you’re a long-term investor and you want to start dollar cost averaging in here
I think that’s a great idea because like i said fb is undervalued at this point all right the next stock we’re going to talk about today is pltr this is palantir and there a data analytics company pltr reported earnings thursday before the market open and earnings were not good pltr beat revenue expectations but missed on earnings now we talked about how that might
Be a possibility when pltr gets focused on growth and adding new customers that significantly increases their upfront costs because pltr has a very high client acquisition cost now the good news is that pltr gave better than expected forward revenue guidance and said they expect to see continued annual revenue growth of 30 or more through 2025. unfortunately pltr
Fell over 15 on thursday after reporting that wider than expected earnings loss keep in mind that the price to sales ratio remains high for pltr especially with them only expecting a 30 year-over-year revenue growth so i would not be surprised to see pltr continue to fall over the next few weeks and months meet kevin took it a step further and he said there is no
Floor on pltr he said companies who have no earnings that is they’re not yet profitable will continue to fall until fear surrounding inflation and interest rates get resolved and the last stock we’re going to talk about today is shop this is shopify and they’re the second largest e-commerce company in the world right behind amazon invest with henry is looking to
Sell either a bullish credit put spread or a bullish debit call spread on shop both of those are vertical options strategies that make money when a stock goes up now personally i disagree with investment with henry here and i gave my reasons yesterday why i thought shop would continue to drop i actually tried to open a vertical credit call spread on shop credit
Call spreads make money when a stock goes down unfortunately i found the open interest to be very low and the bid ask spreads to be extreme so i ended up not playing shop today and due to the low open interest and corresponding high bid ask spreads i would avoid trading options on shop all right i hope you enjoyed that video and get a lot out of it comment down
