9 Million Credit Scores Plummet by Triple Digits?
 
 
First, don’t miss today’s Daily Chart Setup trade idea down lower in this newsletter.

Over 9 million student loans are in delinquency and will soon be reflected in credit scores for those who have not caught up since the Covid era deferral programs expired. This will put even more stress on an already stressed portion of consumers.

Plus, as always, we have stocks popping and dropping so come find out what is moving this morning as I look for stocks and do some live premarket analysis on SPX, SPY, NDX, QQQ, Russell, IWM and other stocks that are potential plays for the day.

GameStop: From Meme Stock to Crypto Gamble — Is This a Turnaround or Desperation?

GameStop (GME) is back in the headlines — not because it’s reinventing retail, but because it’s betting its future on Bitcoin.

In a move that feels more desperate than strategic, the company announced it’s adding Bitcoin to its balance sheet. The board of directors unanimously approved the decision, aligning GameStop with a small but growing list of firms adopting crypto as a Treasury reserve asset. 

But make no mistake — this isn’t some visionary leap forward. It’s a shot in the dark.


Same Hype, Different Day

This is GameStop we’re talking about. A company that’s repeatedly capitalized on hype cycles to delay an inevitable reckoning. We’ve seen this story before — the stock spikes, retail traders swarm in, and then it all falls apart. 

Look at a long-term chart. It’s nothing but a string of failed rallies followed by brutal drops.

They’re not even pretending to be a retailer anymore. The pivot away from video game sales into crypto investing is a clear signal the core business model is broken. 

And while the idea of using Bitcoin as a reserve asset might appeal to crypto bulls, it raises serious questions about GameStop’s long-term viability. What do they actually do now besides hold crypto and hope it appreciates?


Be Careful Chasing the Pop

Could the stock bounce? Sure. Hype alone can drive GME back toward the $30 to $36 range. 

But anyone trading this name needs to understand what they’re dealing with — a company without a clear revenue engine or business plan, betting its war chest on one of the most volatile assets in the world.

This isn’t about conviction in blockchain or decentralized finance. It’s about survival. GameStop’s crypto gamble may generate headlines and sucker in momentum traders, but the underlying fundamentals haven’t changed. If anything, they’ve gotten worse.

Adding Bitcoin doesn’t fix broken revenue. It doesn’t build supply chains, attract new customers or create sticky margins. It just buys time — and maybe a little attention. But the long-term trend here is clear. GameStop pops on headlines, then plummets when the hype wears off. Over and over.

If you're looking to trade it, fine — just understand the risk. This isn’t an investment. It’s a game of hot potato, and you don't want to be the one left holding it when the music stops.

How the Daily Chart Setup Works

Here’s a more detailed description of how the pattern triggers:

1. The price breaks upward through the orange Market Roadmap line. 

2. Then the price goes up and down while staying above the line. Eventually, it comes down to touch the line again — this could take days, weeks or even months. 

3. Once it touches the line and starts moving back up, that signals an entry. 

I use Fibonacci levels for for profit targets and stop losses, and these two tools combined have helped me achieve a 77% win rate over the past six-plus years!
