    Algorithmically Violent | Tommy Lackey, Relativity Capital | Oct 29, 2026

    Stock Market Today: Moments before Wednesday's close, a WSJ report suggested U.S. Vice President Vance, on a hunt for peace in the Middle East, reached out to a so-called "hard-liner" Iranian authority to restart talks. S&P 500 futures rallied nearly 40 points following the report - only to have given all the gains back over just the next ten minutes. Harpoon #1. Google (GOOG) results were first to roll down the earnings track, flat out missing and sending shares lower. Harpoon #2. Microsoft (MSFT) was next, reporting a good quarter but saving their guidance for the 5:30 p.m. EDT conference call. One of Stock Trader Network's smart Think Tankers, Sam, noted the company's capex was lower than expected, something which may not have been a great sign for the hardware trade. Two more harpoons incoming, dead ahead!: Fortinet (FTNT) earnings and guidance were viewed unfavorably, bringing the entire cybersecurity sector lower, and ServiceNow (NOW) also seemed to disappoint, pushing down the likes of Salesforce (CRM) and HubSpot (HUBS). But then maybe the doozy of the night: a Bloomberg report Marvell (MRVL) could be near a "megadeal" to buy optical name Lumentum (LITE). The guys will recap all of above news items, dig for opportunities and trading ideas and give their unfiltered take on how the market reacted. They'll also welcome... ...our special guest and frequent co-host in STN's Think Tank: Tommy Lackey, of Relativity Capital. We'll check in to see how Tommy has been and how his relative strength movers and nitrous strikes scanners have been serving him and his clients.

    'It's A Trap!' | Cameron Dawson, NewEdge Wealth | Oct 22, 2026

    Stock Market Today: The Admiral knew all along. It was a trap. Initial earnings pops in Tesla (TSLA), certainly IBM (IBM), even Meta (META) were faded - and then some. Triple D weighed in from the STN Think Tank as the Tesla conference call was getting ready to wrap up. Shares had fallen about 4% from their after-hours highs; Meta shares were down 5% from theirs. "Meta and Tesla were bull traps for the entire market." The guys will dig into the bull trap: what it is, how it happens and what it means for market players. Our special guest, at 8:35am EDT: Cameron Dawson, CFA, Chief Investment Officeress at NewEdge Wealth. Joel, Dennis and Brent welcome you as they host PreMarket Prep's 3,650th episode!

    Happy Hardware | Blu Putnam, Chief Economist | Oct 21, 2026

    Stock Market Today: An absolute heater of an after-hours session Tuesday, sparked by extremely strong guidance from Super Micro Computer (SMCI) and blow-out Q3 earnings and guidance from SpaceX (SPCX) and Elon Musk. SMCI raised it's next-quarter sales guidance by almost 30%, from around $15 billion to now near $19 billion. Traders scrambled, panicked into AI hardware names like Dell (DELL), SanDisk (SNDK) and Nebius (NBIS). Tesla (TSLA) shares moved higher despite a bit of a mixed signal on the SpaceX call: during the Q&A section, when asked about combining two of his companies, Musk responded that a merger was "not a certainty."
