Capitulation day: money runs to bonds and gold @cboesib CEO of @ProsperTrading, with @qmbigbeat (BigBeat) on Quasar Markets Live, Thursday morning. BigBeat calls it a capitulation day, and Scott agrees: "It was definitely a give up day. It was a total capitulation." Here is his reasoning. Inflation numbers came in worse than expected, and the odds of the Fed raising rates in October went from about 20% earlier in the week to almost a certainty. With that headline, and with the capitulation already seen in AI and tech stocks, you would normally expect the opposite move. Instead gold rallied, rates dove, and people ran for protective assets like bonds and gold. That kind of shift, he says, is the classic sign of the beginning of a capitulation. #Capitulation #Gold #QuasarMarkets

Inflation has topped the Fed’s 2% target for 67 straight months. The lesson? Assets matter. @cboesib talks with @ScottTheCowGuy about why owning assets is key to building wealth. 🔗cdn.jwplayer.com/videos/3k7w…

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Fox News just highlighted how Donald Trump's policies just created the largest jump in inflation since May. This is the WORST possible news for Republicans ahead of the midterms. Spread it everywhere.

The market really believes the Liar in Chief!
U.S. DIESEL FUTURES SURGE 4.5% DESPITE TRUMP'S RUSSIAN FUEL DEAL U.S. diesel futures jumped 4.5% to a two-week high, despite President Trump's agreement to suspend sanctions on Russian diesel exports. Energy traders warn that the additional Russian supply is insufficient to meaningfully lower fuel prices. Meanwhile, U.S. retail diesel averages $6.28 per gallon, near September's record of $6.53. Lawmakers from both parties are also questioning the deal's legality.

I apologize for sharing the false report about James Talarico receiving mental health treatment. I relied on the reporting available then, but I got it wrong and retract it. I support Ken Paxton, but the truth matters more than winning on a lie.

From @WSJopinion: Trump’s deal to buy 36 million barrels of Russian diesel won’t move prices much. What it will do is directly finance Putin’s bloody war in Ukraine. on.wsj.com/4hOlJYE

Look at this. Trump announced a $6.6 billion government investment in defense company Anduril. 1789 Capital, where Donald Trump Jr. is a partner, took a major stake in Anduril in June 2025. Since then, Anduril has won 135 other government contracts worth about $1.8 billion.
