    LIVE: New Fed Chair Warsh's First FOMC. How will it Impact Markets?

    New Fed Chair Kevin Warsh held rates at 3.5 to 3.75% in his first FOMC, which markets had already priced at 99%, so the real signal was everything he said around the decision rather than the decision itself. The biggest tell: Warsh wants to change how the Fed measures inflation, swapping core PCE for trimmed mean PCE, a number that currently reads closer to 2.3% and would give the Fed far more room to eventually cut. The committee also dropped its easing bias, and Warsh leaned hard on price stability while refusing to give any forward guidance, which reads as a hawkish Fed for now. My read is short-term bearish, long-term bullish: Trump picked Warsh to find a path back to rate cuts, but he needs oil and inflation to come down and his new framework to land before he can move. On positioning, I think Bitcoin still has room to the mid-50s before the bottom is in, so I am holding 80% BTC and 20% cash and waiting to deploy that last piece lower.

    Live Trading the SpaceX IPO. Is there still upside?

    SpaceX just pulled off the biggest IPO in history: it sold out at $135 a share, raised $75 billion, and opened on the Nasdaq under SPCX trading around $170, near a $2 trillion valuation. At that size I'm not treating it as a buy-and-hold, but the volatility is the opportunity. I walk through trading the $158 to $178 range with a neutral grid bot, the satellite-stock proxies like EchoStar, Rocket Lab, and AST SpaceMobile that already repriced, and the crypto angle: DePIN names like Helium plus the closest narrative match, Spacecoin. The real lesson came from the pre-IPO mess. Hyperliquid's SpaceX perp tracked the live price the whole way and rolled straight into a live market, while the tokenized pre-IPO stocks hit a surprise six-month lockup and Bybit, Binance, and Bitget all had to refund everyone 100% when their allocations fell short. From here I'm doing pre-IPO exposure through 1x perps. No leverage, no liquidation risk.

    Black Monday in AI Stocks. Is This the Top?

    AI stocks had a Black Monday. South Korea's Kospi fell 8.29% in a single day and hit its third circuit breaker of the year, the NYSE semiconductor index dropped over 10% on the open, and chip names like Broadcom, Arm and Marvell beat earnings but still sold off. My read is the bubble has roughly six more months left, because the real liquidity event isn't earnings, it's the wave of mega-IPOs: SpaceX on June 12, then OpenAI and Anthropic by year-end. SpaceX is going public at a $1.75 trillion valuation with 30% of the float aimed at retail and a NASDAQ rule change that fast-tracks it into the NASDAQ 100 fifteen days after listing, which reads a lot more like exit liquidity than a value buy. I also break down Apple's new Siri, the first phone agent normal people might actually use, and why the NASDAQ is the index I'd want off my book once all three IPOs are public in Q4.

    HyperLiquid Just Hit All-Time-High. Will the Rally Continue?

    HyperLiquid just hit a new all-time high near $64, and people are asking whether this is the start of alt season or a coin you can simply buy and hold through a bear market. My read is no on both, even though the technology is the strongest in its category. HyperLiquid is now the fifth-largest futures exchange by open interest at $9.6B and does about $740M in annualized revenue, and through HIP-3 it has pulled off something nobody else has: trading the Nasdaq, the S&P 500, and pre-IPO names like SpaceX fully on-chain with no KYC. The Cerebras IPO proved the model, with the pre-market trading continuously from two weeks out straight into a live post-IPO perp. The problem is price. HYPE trades at a 77x price-to-sales ratio on a fully diluted basis with token unlocks hitting every month through 2027, and it has been moving roughly 3x as fast as Bitcoin. With Bitcoin's daily uptrend breaking and $60k sitting right on the 200-week moving average, I think HYPE comes back to the low $30s, and that is where I start buying, closer to the low $20s if Bitcoin reaches $60k.
