The entire market is holding its collective breath. We are on the precipice of what might be the single most important earnings call in the world right now: Nvidia.

It’s the biggest company on the planet, and the stakes couldn't be higher. Over the last few weeks, the broader AI stock market has actually been taking a slip. The technology is advancing at breakneck speed—just look at Anthropic coming out and essentially destroying another industry with their latest code-bot plugin release—but the pure-play AI equities have felt the gravity of high expectations.

Technically speaking, Nvidia has been consolidating in a tight zone for a while, but it finally broke out yesterday and today.

NVDA Breakout Today!

This is textbook momentum building in anticipation of earnings. Please Jensen, make earnings great again.

The Broader Market: Financials, Breakouts, and Bitcoin

While all eyes are on the chips, the underlying sector rotations are telling a fascinating story:

  • Tech (XLK) just broke out.

  • Bitcoin is absolutely ripping.

  • Financials (XLF) took a terrifying dip recently. Make no mistake: you cannot have a sustained bull market without financials participating. Fortunately, they’ve recovered over the last 48 hours and are now sitting in a very hopeful buy zone.

  • XLC (Communication Services) and XLY (Consumer Discretionary) look like coiled springs ready to pop.

  • XLE (Energy) and XLP (Staples) are currently oversold, with momentum firmly pointing down for energy.

The Earnings Casino

Here is the harsh reality of earnings season: the market makes absolutely no sense. You can have killer earnings, raise guidance, and the stock will still suffer an absolute dump. There can be little whispers in an earnings statement that totally tank a stock or make it rip to the moon.

As retail investors, it's very hard to know what those little things are. So, what’s our edge? We don’t predict. We are market participants. We use the information in front of us to make the best decisions and allocate our assets accordingly. (Friendly reminder: We are financial media, not your financial advisors.

💰 Highest Earners & Yields

We scraped the data so you don't have to. Here is how the top of the leaderboard is shaking out:

  1. I0YY

    (IONQ - GraniteShares): 147.86% Yield

  2. COYY

    (Coinbase - GraniteShares): 144.65% Yield. COYY has been paying the mark for the last few weeks in a row (previously hovering around 144.65%) and comes in at a very strong third place this week.

  3. MAAY

    (Marathon - GraniteShares): 143.52% Yield. MAAY was on the top spot for many weeks and finally slides down the rankings

👀 On Radar: Keep a close eye on SSK, the SOL Spot ETF + Staked Distributions from Rex Shares. Last month, SSK was paying out a massive 149%. We are waiting for SSK's declaration day coming up this week to see if it reclaims the throne.

🛑 The 0DTE Yield Paradigm (Why We Like BITK)

While we track the highest yields, we must also track the quality and mechanics of how that yield is generated. Here is a fundamental truth about standard covered call funds: during massive market rip-ups, they cap your upside.

This is why we must integrate 0DTE (zero days to expiration) strategies into our income portfolios. Funds writing daily options only cap your upside during the intraday trading session. They do not cap your upside overnight. If an underlying asset gaps up after hours, you capture that equity appreciation.

We are advising investors to take a hard look at funds like BITK (Tuttle Capital Bitcoin 0DTE). We aren't just highlighting it for its yield; we are highlighting it because it writes 0DTE options on Bitcoin futures. Crypto is notorious for massive overnight gap-ups. By utilizing a 0DTE fund like BITK, you get the heavy premium generation without entirely sacrificing the overnight crypto rips. If you aren't integrating 0DTEs into your portfolio, you are leaving gap-up money on the table.

📈 The Trade Desk: How We Are Positioning

The Nvidia IV Play:If you want to play the Nvidia earnings without buying outright calls (which will get decimated by IV crush), look at the high-yield ecosystem. Funds like NVDY (YieldMax), NVDW (Roundhill), and the leveraged NVII (Rex Shares) have been selling calls into this massive run-up. As an income investor holding these funds, you are the casino collecting that premium.

The Leveraged Corner:For pure trading momentum rather than income, we are utilizing 2x leveraged vehicles like NVDL (2x Nvidia) and CONL (2x Coinbase). As we continue to explore various other 2x leverage tickers, keep this golden rule in mind: Leverage Shares by Themes always has the lowest fees and expense ratios. If you are going to use leveraged products for day trading or swing trading, protect your capital and always target the lowest expense ratio possible.

Until The Next Div Date Folks….
