Catalyst Driven Earnings Trades

I don't normally engage in earnings driven trades or entries prior to earnings but I believe there are a few very interesting opportunities at the moment.

Lower quality companies, those outside the Mag7, have been enjoyed unparalleled strength recently. This is very much to the benefit of the $400kProject Savvytrader portfolios as well as my core 400k YouTube portfolios.

Many small cap companies (or formerly mid-cap companies that are now small caps) remain severely depressed and this earnings season is likely to catalyze a recovery in share price. I’m convinced that all the pessimism is now priced in and even moderately optimistic language regarding company specific outlook could propel the companies below meaningfully higher. Much like when these portfolios were started, my belief was that Powell was going to have to become more dovish and soon - in fact the day I recorded the first episode is FOMC comments did just that. You may want to review that (“under-viewed”) episode as I think the same logic applies here but at the company specific level. Lets dig into the names I think are best positioned for catalyzing moves off their lows.
