August 9, 2025 Saturday Report

August 9, 2025 Saturday Report

Dear Member,

The Composite stretched its winning streak to nine weeks, though barely. Boomer’s Revenge continued to impress, pushing its winning streak to 10 weeks. Rising Tide was a disappointment, as strength following Disney’s earnings on Wednesday failed to carry through to the rest of the week.

This week, I talk about my continued frustration with Disney and where we might turn next. Be sure to check it out.

Enjoy the report and have a great weekend.

Happy Trading.

Jon L.
