What a crazy week it’s been. After an 8% end-of-week drop from its open, the market opened another 2% lower on 4/7/25—only to stage one of the biggest single-day gains in history on 4/9. The day before that move, my model flashed a “catch a falling knife” read. I took the signal and went long a call contract on S&P 500 futures. Sitting on a mild gain so far, but I’m staying cautious—leaning defensive in this environment while continuing to build my core positioning.
