Dear Traders, The US job market is strong, and everyone was surprised by today’s report that US companies are still creating jobs. While this led the market to gap down over 1.5%, it is slowly recovering as I am writing this newsletter. It’s a crazy situation. There’s a good report and the market gaps down! […]
