The Cosmos on a Brokerage Screen April 22, 2026 What My System Says Today - For most of this century, “investing in space” meant buying Boeing (BA) and squinting. You owned a defense contractor, pretended it was a rocket company and hoped nobody asked questions.

Geopolitical Conflict Can’t Stop This Sector From Reigning Supreme April 8, 2026 What My System Says Today - Well, the numbers are in, and March was not a great month for the three major U.S. indexes. Institutional investors were “risk-off” amid joint U.S.-Israeli strikes against Iran… and Iran’s subsequent retaliatory strikes against the U.S. and other Gulf nations. The strikes caused a spike in oil prices worldwide and reignited concerns about global inflation. […]

You Just Survived the Worst Quarter in Years… Here’s Your Reward April 1, 2026 What My System Says Today - I’ll be honest with you. After the quarter we just had, I wouldn’t blame you for wanting to walk away from your brokerage account, shove it in a drawer and not look at it again until the Fourth of July.
