This rise follows President Trump's announcement of a U.S. crypto strategic reserve, which includes Bitcoin, Ether, XRP, Solana, and Cardano. ​ Key Influencers: Trade Policies: President Trump's announcement of reinstating tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China has introduced uncertainties in global trade dynamics, affecting investor confidence. ​ Economic Indicators: The upcoming February jobs report is highly anticipated, with forecasts predicting a gain of 160,000 jobs. However, deviations from this expectation could trigger market corrections. ​ Corporate Earnings: Companies like Nvidia and Tesla have reported significant stock declines due to underwhelming earnings and sales figures, adding to market volatility. ​ Global Markets: Asia: Asian shares advanced, bolstered by upbeat Chinese factory data and Wall Street's rally. The Hang Seng in Hong Kong increased by 1.2%, and Japan's Nikkei 225 advanced by 1.4%. ​ Europe: European futures showed slight improvements following European leaders' agreement to draft a peace plan for Ukraine, contributing to geopolitical stability. ​ Outlook: The interplay between trade policies, economic indicators, and corporate earnings suggests a cautious approach to market participation. Investors are advised to monitor ongoing developments closely, diversify portfolios, and consider both macroeconomic indicators and sector-specific trends when making investment decisions.

These channels on SPY/NASDAQ/Russell 2000 will signal when I can "maybe" step back into the market. Until then, patience is the strategy.

Investors are also anticipating the release of the U.S. jobs report later this week, which is expected to provide further insights into the economic landscape. ​ Outlook: The implementation of new tariffs and mixed economic data have heightened market uncertainty. Investors are advised to exercise caution, monitor ongoing geopolitical developments, and assess economic indicators to navigate the current market environment effectively.
