$BTC 🚨 US job openings just dropped by 360,000 in one month 🚨
At the same time, consumer confidence came in higher than expected at 91.8 vs 87.8.
On the surface, this looks strong. But the underlying data is telling a different story.
Chicago PMI fell to 52.8 from 57.7 last month. That is a sharp drop in manufacturing activity in a very short time.
JOLTS job openings came in at 6.88M vs 7.24M last month. That is a clear decline in demand for workers.
So we now have:
• Consumers still feeling confident • Jobs declining • Manufacturing slowing
This combination does not stay stable for long. Consumer confidence is usually a lagging indicator.
It reflects how people felt in the recent past, not what is happening right now. Jobs and manufacturing data tend to move first. That is what we are starting to see here.
If this trend continues, the confidence data will likely follow lower in the coming months 📢
$TRUMP 🚨🚨 During a live phone interview earlier with Fox News, President Trump was asked if he had been told by the CIA that Mojtaba Khamenei, Iran’s Supreme Leader and the son of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was gay, to which Trump responded 📢
“Well, they did say that, but I don't know if it was only them. I think a lot of people are saying that, which puts him off to a bad start in that particular country.” 📢
$TRUMP 🚨📢 Despite today’s announcement by President Trump, Iran has not requested a 10-day pause on strikes against its energy plants from the United States and is yet to deliver a final response to the Trump Administration’s 15-point plan to end the war, peace talk mediators tell the Wall Street Journal 🙄
$BTC 🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 The Pentagon has identified its target: Abu Musa Island 📢
Axios reports the U.S. is looking at seizing the Iran-controlled island sitting 40 miles from both Iran and the UAE, right at the entrance to the Strait of Hormuz.
Lesser Tunb and Greater Tunb are also in play.
These are the islands we talked about weeks ago.
Abu Musa gives whoever holds it direct control over every vessel entering or leaving the Strait.
Iran has used it to stage fast-attack boats and launch drones at shipping for four straight weeks.
The USS Tripoli and 2,200 Marines are days away.
The 82nd Airborne is deploying. Apaches are already hunting Iranian boats along the coastline.
And now the Pentagon is telling reporters exactly which piece of rock they want.
Iran just mobilized a million troops and threatened "unprecedented" measures against any Gulf state that supports a ground operation.
The next 48 hours could determine whether this war ends at a negotiating table or on a beach
$TRUMP 🚨🇺🇲 DAVID SACKS COMPLETES HIS 130 DAYS AS TRUMP'S AI AND CRYPTO CZAR 🚨📢
Sacks used up his full allocation as a special government employee and is now moving to co-chair the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology
In just over four months, Sacks helped shape Trump's AI framework, pushed for easier permitting and power generation for tech companies, and brought serious Silicon Valley credibility to an administration that needed it.
He sold over $200 million in crypto investments before taking the role.
No conflicts. Clean hands.
Now he gets an expanded portfolio.
PCAST covers AI plus a broader range of technology policy.
Less day-to-day operations, more strategic recommendations directly to the president.
Sacks:
"I think moving forward as co-chair of PCAST, I can now make recommendations on not just AI but an expanded range of technology topics."
One of the few people in Washington who actually understands how this technology works.
$XAG 🇺🇸🇮🇷🇮🇱 Possible in-person talks with the U.S. could happen soon, but Iran is demanding reparations, security guarantees, and control over the Strait of Hormuz
And the U.S. is unlikely to accept those terms, making any deal a long shot from the jump.
On top of that, Iran deeply distrusts Washington, so it’s still unclear who in Tehran can actually negotiate
Big demands, no trust, unclear leadership… sounds like smooth negotiations ahead
$BTC 🚨🚨 Iran denies any negotiations are taking place with the US 📢
Senior Iranian official MB Ghalibaf says the talks being reported are "fake news" and claims it's being used deliberately to manipulate oil and financial markets 📢
This directly contradicts what Trump said earlier today about a potential deal with Iran in next 5 days 📢
$TRUMP 🚨 Trump threatens to unleash ICE agents on US airports if Dems don’t end shutdown 📢
President Trump on Saturday threatened to station ICE agents in airports across the nation as soon as Monday to ease the chaos and long security lines caused by widespread TSA absenteeism amid a partial government shutdown 📢
Trump called on Democrats to end the stonewalling that has cut off funding and paychecks for TSA screeners 👀
“If the Radical Left Democrats don’t immediately sign an agreement to let our Country, in particular, our Airports, be FREE and SAFE again, I will move our brilliant and patriotic ICE Agents to the Airports where they will do Security like no one has ever seen before,” Trump said on Truth Social 🧐
Eid Mubarak everyone ❤️ Are there any Eid gifts for me? 🤍
