Summary

Todd Horwitz warns that markets are repeating 2008, driven by record consumer debt, excessive leverage, and unsustainable parabolic moves in tech. He recommends shorting oil and equities, favors precious metals, and expects rising interest rates to push bond prices lower and the dollar higher.

  • Todd Horwitz predicts a 2008-style market crash driven by consumer debt and asset bubbles.
  • He recommends shorting WTI crude oil, targeting low $60s/high $50s due to global glut.
  • He is bearish on semiconductors and tech stocks like NVDA, INTC, MU, QCOM, IONQ, expecting further declines.
  • He advocates buying gold, silver, and platinum on dips, seeing base-building for a steady uptrend.
  • He is short US 10-year Treasury futures, expecting higher yields driven by market forces.
  • He expects the US dollar to strengthen as a safe haven, targeting DXY 102-103.
  • He sees a buying opportunity in SpaceX after a 50% drop and a potential short-term bounce in Oracle.
  • He remains broadly short US equities, looking for a 40-60% correction in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq.
Ideas
Todd Horwitz Founder, bubbatrading.com 2:15
Short WTI crude oil.
Global glut of oil and diminishing impact of geopolitical events will push WTI crude into the low 60s or high 50s by year-end, making this rally to 85 a selling opportunity.
WTI HIGH
Todd Horwitz Founder, bubbatrading.com 5:37
Short semiconductors and tech stocks.
Semiconductor and tech stocks made unsustainable parabolic moves; AI spending concerns and overvaluation will drive further downside, similar to Palantir's drop, with NVDA, Intel, Micron, Qualcomm, and IonQ all vulnerable.
NVDA SMH INTC MU QCOM IONQ HIGH
Todd Horwitz Founder, bubbatrading.com 15:00
Buy SpaceX near lows.
SpaceX has fallen about 50% from its peak, the chart shows slowing downside momentum near support, and it is becoming an attractive buy for believers in the company's long-term prospects.
SPCX MED
Todd Horwitz Founder, bubbatrading.com 17:06
Long Oracle for a bounce.
Oracle is extremely oversold, trading about three standard deviations below the mean, historically giving a ~90% probability of a short-term bounce, making it a trader's buy for a mean-reversion move.
ORCL LOW
Todd Horwitz Founder, bubbatrading.com 18:14
Short 10-year Treasury futures.
Free-market forces dictate higher interest rates; 10-year note futures have fallen and will go lower as inflation forces the Fed to hike, with the market already front-running rate increases.
10-Year Treasury Note Futures HIGH
Todd Horwitz Founder, bubbatrading.com 22:07
Long gold, silver, platinum.
Gold, silver, and platinum have built a base after parabolic moves, are ready to resume a steady uptrend, and have already priced in future rate hikes, reducing downside from Fed tightening.
GLD SILVER PPLT HIGH
Todd Horwitz Founder, bubbatrading.com 24:06
Short S&P 500 and Nasdaq.
Markets are setting up for a 2008-style crash; excessive consumer debt, defaults, and overvalued assets will cause a 40-60% correction; current rally is sellable and S&P 500 may end the year flat or down.
SPY QQQ HIGH
Todd Horwitz Founder, bubbatrading.com 25:09
Long US dollar index.
Global uncertainty and market trouble drive safe-haven demand for the dollar; technical support at par with upside to 102-103 on DXY, supported by reserve-currency status.
DXY MED
