Market Recap
More weakness in the markets for this past week, primarily driven by the ongoing tariff saga and the uncertainty surrounding them. While price movement was 'less linear' to the downside compared to the previous week, the net result was roughly the same for the NASDAQ 100 (QQQ), but several percent more for the S&P 500 (SPY). This reflected in the VIX as well, which shot up over 20%, but pulled back some late week to get just under the 20% mark.

Our Performance this Week
A handful of trades for the week, but premiums were overpriced a bit, resulting in a scratch week for Pure Alpha and a very modest gain in Futures Focus.

The Week Ahead
CPI on tap (Wednesday). This, coupled with tariff news, will drive the markets this week. I do expect an active week, but the market dictates our data and our data drives the trades. As I have said, it only takes a solid handful, or even a good single trade to make the week.
