The USD-JPY (Dollar/Yen) just broke out, and the last time this happened in 2024, it triggered a coordinated intervention and a 15% drop in U.S. stocks in a matter of weeks. In this video I break down the USD/JPY chart, the DXY at a make-or-break resistance zone, and why the euro and British pound have already broken out against the dollar. The answer comes down to one chart almost nobody is watching: debt-to-GDP.

I also cover why I think the market is dead wrong on Kevin Warsh, why I don't buy the hawkish act for one second, and what it means for rate cuts into next year.

All charts and data, no BS.

S&P 500, Nasdaq register best quarter since 2020 despite Iran war

SUMMARY
Energy, financials could be better bets — BofA
Optimism about Q2 earnings persists
On the day, Dow up 0.3%, S&P 500 up 0.8%, Nasdaq up 1.5%

June 30 (Reuters) - The S&P 500 and Nasdaq finished June on Tuesday with their biggest quarterly gains since 2020 as investors remained upbeat about economic and earnings growth even amid ‌the Middle East conflict.
The Dow had its biggest quarterly jump since 2022.

Optimism over signs of progress in efforts to bring the Iran war to a lasting halt has helped stocks recently despite continued military tensions.
Iran and the U.S. on June 17 signed a memorandum of understanding aimed at ending the ⁠four-month-old conflict.

But exchanges of fire over the weekend have tested that agreement, and a Qatari official said on Tuesday that top U.S. envoys who have arrived in Doha will not hold a high-level meeting with Iran.

After a strong first-quarter earnings season for S&P 500 companies, investors are looking forward to second-quarter results ​in the coming weeks...

Weakness in heavyweight technology shares has weighed on the market in recent weeks, and the S&P 500 and Nasdaq both registered losses for the month of June.
Investors have been concerned about lofty valuations in the tech sector and continued massive spending on AI by tech companies.

For the quarter, the ⁠Dow was up about 13%, the S&P 500 gained 14.9% and the Nasdaq rose 21.4%.

Strategists at BofA said cyclical, value-oriented sectors such as energy and financials could be the better bet heading into the second ​half.

After the closing bell, shares of Nike (NKE.N), opens new tab were down about 2% following the company's release of ​quarterly results.

Advancing issues outnumbered ⁠decliners by a 1.06-to-1 ratio on the New York Stock Exchange. There were 349 new highs and 154 new lows on the NYSE.
On the Nasdaq, 2,651 stocks rose and 2,318 fell as advancing issues outnumbered decliners by a 1.14-to-1 ratio. The S&P 500 posted no new 52-week ⁠highs and no new lows while the Nasdaq Composite recorded no new highs and no new lows.
Volume on U.S. exchanges was 19.97 billion shares, compared with the 23.40 billion average for the full session over the last 20 trading days.
