Market Pulse: Billy's latest alerts

Billy's latest actionable stock and crypto alerts are: September 4, 2026 at 11:11 AM CDT (8h 18m old): Long $MU CDS 1020/1030 for $3.45 - expires next Friday September 4, 2026 at 9:58 AM CDT (9h 31m old): $SPY STOP LOSS HIT ROUND 2 ENTRY AT 11am September 4, 2026 at 9:49 AM CDT (9h 40m old): Heavy average down on $SPY CALLS NOW September 4, 2026 at 9:00 AM CDT (10h 29m old): Exit $APP Puts (again) for another profit - this time $2.25 per contract September 4, 2026 at 9:00 AM CDT (10h 29m old): $GAIA IS NOW UP 40% FROM OUR EARLY EVERY REMEMBER 7-15% STOP LOSS IF YOU ARE NEW September 4, 2026 at 8:59 AM CDT (10h 30m old): Exit $NVDA with $4.24 profit per share These are Billy's recorded entries, targets, updates, and risk limits—not newly generated recommendations.

The evidence

The macroeconomy and market-policy watch included: 🚨 NEW: Fox’s @​BretBaier: “The jobs report out today much exceeded expectations with 162,000 jobs gained against 56,000 expected. This is a bright spot and they didn’t see it coming.” @​marcthiessen: “Absolutely! Except for gas prices the economy is quite strong. It’s a very different situation from the last midterm election in 2022 under Biden when you had the worst inflation in four decades, worst crime wave, wors… Mario Nawfal says higher interest rates will not lower oil prices or ease Gulf debt risks, arguing inflation is being driven by supply-side shocks rather than demand. He points to Iran’s influence over the strait as a key factor behind crude prices. President Donald Trump intensifies pressure on the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates, threatening to cut off trade with certain economies with which the US has a deficit. He speaks with reporters at the White House ▻ Economist Daniel Lacalle says raising rates during a supply shock hurts U.S. businesses and households, while giving foreign exporters an edge into the U.S. market. He argues there is little evidence of an overheated economy and ties the strain to debt-fueled public spending. S&P 500 will add Bloom Energy, Illumina and Everpure, while removing Molson Coors, Trade Desk and Builders FirstSource. The reshuffle underscores how benchmark composition is shifting as market leadership changes.

Targets and expectations

The source-backed decision levels are: Long $MU CDS 1020/1030 for $3.45 - expires next Friday $SPY STOP LOSS HIT ROUND 2 ENTRY AT 11am Heavy average down on $SPY CALLS NOW Exit $APP Puts (again) for another profit - this time $2.25 per contract $GAIA IS NOW UP 40% FROM OUR EARLY EVERY REMEMBER 7-15% STOP LOSS IF YOU ARE NEW Exit $NVDA with $4.24 profit per share Bullish or bearish confirmation requires price to move through Billy's stated trigger or target; a stated stop, closure, or move back through the entry invalidates that setup. These are reported levels, not guarantees or fresh recommendations.

Billy's take

My read starts with the biggest verified catalyst, then Bitcoin and broad-market positioning, then the exact support, resistance, or target levels actually stated by the desk. If BWB did not publish a level, I will not make one up. Respect risk and wait for confirmation.
