3 Strongest Stocks I'm Buying! 2 Safe Haven Plays. Preparation Outline!
Hey Options Trader,
Today is the day that makes bullish investors question whether or not they are doing the right thing by buying stocks at these levels. If you felt that way, I don’t blame you. The tariffs came in worse than expected, the market reacted accordingly.
I’m going to prep you with a game plan and mindset you can apply to your investing/trading style that will help you win long term, even if you are bearish at this point.
Here’s what we are covering:
$QQQ ( ▲ 0.94% ) and $VIX ( ▼ 1.01% ) - key support zones and bear case scenario

4 Stocks - 2 Strong Growth Stocks & 2 Safe Haven Plays
QQQ and VIX - Key Levels
As you can see below, QQQ has crashed now -16.5% from February highs. We have seen no relief rally (the 5% mini relief doesn’t count) or bounce in sight. The market has moved down way quicker than expected. Are we done yet?
My take is we still hit lows of $448 which hasn’t been touched yet. VIX spiked up to $29. I was looking for $30 or higher to really mark a bottom in the markets.
I am 100% invested and have built out my core position of strong stocks that I believe will bring in returns of 40-60% this year once we recover from this massive crash.
If you feel uncomfortable with your portfolio at this point and you believe we are headed down much further, you are probably positioned to heavily without enough cash on the sidelines.
I have some good news for you though!

If we look at the beginning of the 2022 bear market you will see the first big crash, similar to what we have now was about -17%. Nothing goes down forever though. Shortly thereafter, we saw a relief rally of about 10%. These are the times where you can lighten up your position.
Since we haven’t seen a relief rally and we have been heading down quick, I do anticipate a rally of at minimum 8-10% coming in the next 7 trading days.
When this happens, you can free up some cash by selling out of positions to make yourself more comfortable with your portfolio. I plan on taking a lot of profits off the table as I put on a whole slew of positions this week.
Cash is king. Cash is freedom. You should always have some on the sidelines for opportunity, especially if you are fearful of the markets right now.

Bear market bounces are violent! Down -17%, up 10% down -14%, and the next one was up 20%.
VIX approaching new yearly highs today. The end of this crash is near. If we get above 30, load the boats on your favorite stocks.

Apple's New Smart Display Confirms What This Startup Knew All Along
Apple has entered the smart home race with its new Smart Display, firing a $158B signal that connected homes are the future.
When Apple moves in, it doesn’t just join the market — it transforms it.
One company has been quietly preparing for this moment.
Their smart shade technology already works across every major platform, perfectly positioned to capture the wave of new consumers Apple will bring.
While others scramble to catch up, this startup is already shifting production from China to its new facility in the Philippines — built for speed and ready to meet surging demand as Apple’s marketing machine drives mass adoption.
With 200% year-over-year growth and distribution in over 120 Best Buy locations, this company isn’t just ready for Apple’s push — they’re set to thrive from it.
Shares in this tech company are open at just $1.90.
Apple’s move is accelerating the entire sector. Don’t miss this window.

4 Strong Growth Stocks, 2 Of Them Safe Havens
$TSLA ( ▼ 0.54% ) - Tesla was one of the strongest stocks of the bunch today. They reported a decline of -13% in quarterly vehicle sales, yet still maintained a strong chart today. Could the bottom be in for Tesla. I believe so.

TSLA $220 Cash Secured Puts Look Good Here
$PLTR ( ▲ 0.95% ) - Palantir securing 20+ new partnerships this quarter will boost their next earnings announcement. Stock is holding strong and not making new yearly lows.

$AAPL ( ▼ 0.28% ) - Apple was down -8% today, taking out prices we haven’t seen since last June 2024. Since they are the largest market cap stock, with 55B in cash on hand, and a monopolistic foothold in their sector, I believe right now is a safe play to sell cash secured puts. I sold the $190’s.

$BRK.B ( ▼ 0.24% ) - Berkshire Hathaway is up over 11% since the crash started. This is a true safe haven stock. They have 334 Billion in cash on hand which ranks them #1 for most liquid cash. Cash is king, especially during crashes.
