DELL was heavy all day and closed down 31 points ahead of earnings, then reported a beat with guidance up. I break down why $480 is the only level that matters from here. I also pull up the 10-year and 200 years of rate history to show why 4.8% is not the emergency everybody thinks it is.

TG Watkins, my Director of Stocks, is going live Wednesday, September 2 at 6 PM CT, and I would clear the calendar for it. He is also unveiling Moxie Indicator Alerts, which push his trades to you the moment he enters one. One night only. Save your seat here!

John Carter

John Carter’s father was a Morgan Stanley stock broker. One day during high school, John came home from the mall where he was working at a store making cookies. He had saved up $1,000 over the course of a few months and his dad told him that he and some of his friends were going to buy “some call options on Intel” the next day. With his father’s direction, he bought 10 call options at $0.75, and sold them a few days later for $1.50, doubling his money. He was hooked and has been trading ever since—going on 25+ years now.
