August 2, 2025       It looked like smooth sailing — until it wasn’t. After clawing back from a shaky first quarter, the market had been coasting higher for nearly 4 months… until Friday’s sharp drop broke the rhythm. Triggered by a new wave of tariffs, the move snapped the market out of its summer daze. Geof Smith dubbed it “Liberation Day 2.0,” a nod to the first tariff-induced selloff in April, when Trump’s original round of duties took effect and rattled the tape. Last week, we said the calm might not last — and sure enough, things are starting to move. What happens next could shape the rest of August… a month with a history of weakness. In this week’s features, you’ll see how our editors are staying a step ahead: preparing for volatility, finding pockets of edge, and keeping cool while the crowd stays complacent. To your prosperity, — The ProsperityPub Team HOT TIPS Key Market Insights   • Apple’s boring? That’s exactly why Alex Reid trades it every single week. In this eye-opening piece, we discover how boring stocks can quietly fund your account.   • Fed Day is over, but two bold predictions from our experts could have major market implications. One’s betting on deflation, the other on a surging dollar…   • Tariffs are back. The market’s slipping. And earnings season is about to flood the tape. In his Weekly Wrap-Up video, Geof Smith breaks down the sudden weakness, why the jobs report might be bogus, and how he's protecting his portfolio with SPY puts.   • Markets are stuck in a coil — and directional traders are bleeding. Nate Tucci explains how he’s stacking wins anyway using smart, low-movement debit spreads.   • Earlier this week, JD laid out two earnings trades with totally opposite profiles — one needing a post-earnings move, the other profiting from calm — both designed to pull in premium fast.   • Geof Smith is back in the saddle — and already seeing trouble. Energy, sugar, and power are all in short supply, and the market’s waking up to it. He broke it down Monday after returning from vacation.   • The market’s been trained to ignore risk — but that muscle memory might backfire. In Tuesday’s Profit Panel, Geof Smith and Chris Pulver warn: complacency can become a trap door.   • By Tuesday, JD was already recapping two successful earnings trades he entered just this week… Then then revealed a new short-call setup on Vertiv, now stretched far beyond its historical norms.

Try It Free Now HOT TRADES LATEST WINNERS   • Jeffry Turnmire handed out a FREE trade on Tuesday’s Profit Panel — a bearish put spread on AAPL ahead of earnings. With Apple tanking, that setup is already up nearly 60%!   • JD’s 2 Sigma Trader strategy nailed a 114% win on MCD this week!   • Chris Pulver was on fire, going 5-for-5 in Daily Profit Play and 2-for-2 in Pinch Point — plus bonus wins on SPY, TSLA, INTC, and more.   • Geof Smith’s 1K Academy booked a pair of solid QQQ gains this week — including a 29% win overnight. • And his Gold Stream strategy keeps on delivering— with a solid 18% gain keeping his 31-for-31 win streak alive. • Meanwhile, Geof’s Energy Income Trader picked up a quick 16.28% gain in just 3 days on XOP!   • Nate Tucci’s Automated Options added another win to the ledger — a QQQ debit spread closed for 41.5%. • And his Overnight Options keeps delivering— with 3 more overnight wins this week, including a 32% pop on SPY! THINGS LEFT UNREAD In Case You Missed It   • Scott Welsh spots a potential bank stock breakout just as we enter a notoriously bearish season. This ticker could lead the charge — or fake everyone out. • Tuesday, Geof Smith was watching one key level on the ES futures chart, telling us that if it breaks, he’s grabbing SPY puts for downside protection. Read this before the Fed hits tomorrow.   • Jack Carter says DraftKings should be embarrassed. Why? Because Robinhood just launched next-generation betting tools — and he’s going long on this innovative broker.   • Option buyers keep getting crushed — even when they’re right. In this eye-opening piece, Nate Tucci explains why it’s happening and how he’s making the market pay him either way.   • The Fed held steady and the market flinched. Now Geof Smith is watching how the market digests it — and what clues us in on the next big market-moving news.   • Alex Reid recaps a potential 1000% trade that Nate Tucci talked about on Wednesday’s special Fed Day Opening Playbook roundtable.   • Nate Tucci says the most overlooked trading edge isn’t in the chart — it’s in your discipline. This week, he shares why you don’t have to trade every day to win.   • Earlier this week, JD showed how he’s cashing in on earnings volatility — with simple, high-odds trades on AAPL and ROKU using his mean reversion framework.   • Geof Smith is calling out the “bogus” jobs report. The market’s reacting, but Geof thinks the real move hasn’t happened yet.   • Markets flipped the moment Powell spoke — and directional traders got wrecked. Nate Tucci breaks down the one structure that still wins, even when the Fed shakes everything up.   • META popped. MSFT soared. But while most traders slept, Jack Carter was already making his move. He explains why after-hours trading can hand you an unfair edge — if you know how to spot the overreaction.   • Stronger data means no rate cuts — and the market’s not happy. On Thursday, Geof Smith laid out what he’s watching ahead of Friday — what he called Liberation Day 2.0 — and the jobs report.
