U.S.

Educators across the United States are focusing on the mental wellbeing of their students after COVID-19 forced schools to shut down or move to remote learning. These concerns have led to a flood of new funding and initiatives to help students navigate the pandemic’s aftermath.

President Biden proposes directing billions of dollars to something that millions of women do for low pay or no pay: taking care of other people. The plan includes basic care for elderly and disabled people, and free universal “pre-Kindergarten.” His rivals ask whether women want such aid at all.

Texas took another step toward preventing election officials from sending unsolicited mail-in ballots to voters. Supporters say such efforts increase election integrity, opponents say there is no evidence of a problem to fix and that voters of color and older people will suffer.

WORLD

Opposition leader Rahul Gandhi implored Prime Minister Narendra Modi to prepare India for another national lockdown, accelerate vaccinations and track the coronavirus and its mutations as a deadly wave ravages the country. Hospitals are full, oxygen supplies are short and a lack of space in morgues and crematoriums is pushing people to fashion makeshift funeral pyres in parks and parking lots.

The European Union may send a military training mission to Mozambique to help its government withstand an Islamist insurgency that is threatening natural-gas projects. Insurgents on March 24 attacked the coastal town of Palma, killing dozens and forcing many more to flee.

Telecom company Telenor was one of the few western companies to bet on Myanmar since it emerged from its military dictatorship. The 2020 coup now has led to a $783 million write-off and the Norwegian state-controlled firm must decide whether to ride it out or get out. “We are facing many dilemmas,” its CEO told Reuters.

Britain withdrew its Royal Navy vessels from the waters off the island of Jersey in the English Channel after tempers on post-Brexit fishing rights escalated. French fishermen say they are being unfairly deprived of access to rich fishing grounds, while Jersey a self-governing British Crown Dependency, said it’s just following trade rules.

BUSINESS

Elon Musk said in January he was “highly confident” that a Tesla car will be fully capable of self-driving this year. Tesla meanwhile told a California regulator that this might not be so, a memo from the California Department of Motor Vehicles showed.

Holiday Inn’s owner IHG forecast a busy summer season as travelers take advantage of easing COVID-19 lockdowns, and said that March and April are showing notable pickups, particularly in the United States and China.

The pandemic affecting other corporate results this week. Beyond Meat reported a wider-than-expected quarterly loss on lower sales to restaurants, while Peloton revenue beat estimates as people stuck at home ordered its fitness gear. The company also said it estimates a $165 million hit to revenue this quarter because of a treadmill recall after reports of multiple injuries and the death of a child in an accident.

India’s airlines are under renewed pressure to raise cash or face downsizing, consolidation or plane repossession as the country’s COVID-19 surge cut passenger traffic by nearly a third in April.

7 principles for winning trades consistently

Hey Trader,

Mark Douglas is an amazing author who writes about the world of trading.

Many high level traders in the Hawkeye community have been talking about Mark and how his books have had an impact on their trading.

So if you haven't read his books, the Hawkeye community recommends them!

And if you need a place to start, go with "Trading in the Zone," which is the book where he details the 7 principles for winning consistently.

Mark's 7 principles are:

1. I objectively identify my edges.

2. I predefine the risk of every trade.

3. I completely accept the risk or I am willing to let go of the trade.

4. I act on my edges without reservation or hesitation.

5. I pay myself as the market makes money available to me.

6. I continually monitor my susceptibility for making errors.

7. I understand the absolute necessity of these principles of consistent success and, therefore, I never violate them.

Of course, Mark goes into much more detail on each principle in his book, and I highly recommend you check it out.

But what struck me is how many of these principles align with what we teach here at Hawkeye.

The reality is that without a set of rules to guide you, you're lost in the dark.

If you don't have a trading plan, or a routine... you can print these out and read them every morning before the start of your trading session.

It will make a difference!

And if structure is what your trading is missing, that's what Hawkeye is all about!

>>> So click here to find how to create a trading plan and to structure your trading in a way that sets you up to WIN more consistently!

To your success,

Anthony Speciale Jr
