Regardless if you follow the stock market daily like I do or even monthly, we’ve all been hearing about rising interest rates for months...
While many traders think stocks are set to dip, the truth is that rates rising off of historically low rates actually tends to occur when the economy is picking up. So the market actually trades higher!

This could be the beginning of what he sees as a potentially parabolic shock rise in energy prices that’ll cause the same chain reaction in oil and gas…
