Two Wild Takes That Just Might Pay

Is the Market Sleeping on These Two Moves?

 

The Fed didn’t move rates — and most traders are betting they won’t for a while.

But two guests on yesterday’s Opening Playbook raised their hands during our Fed Day roundtable with big, bold takes that bucked the consensus.

They’re not exactly high-probability plays… But if either one hits, the payoff could be massive.

1) JD’s Deflation Bomb
Most traders are still worried about stubborn inflation.
Not JD, though.

He made the most contrarian call of the session — warning that deflation is the real risk now… and that the Fed is already behind the curve.

“There is a deflationary bomb — the fuse has been lit for several months.”
“Currently the Federal Reserve discount rate is in restrictive territory… and there is no justification.”

If he’s right?

The Fed will be forced into emergency rate cuts, and traders leaning short or hedged could get blindsided.

2) Alex Reid: Don’t Sleep on the Dollar

While the Fed stayed put, the U.S. dollar quietly broke out above its 50-day EMA.

Alex was watching — and immediately started hunting for a way to play it.

“I think the dollar is going to strengthen… I could see us get back to 100.”

His move? A call option setup on UUP, the bullish dollar ETF — with an eye toward strikes at 28 or even 29.

Why it matters:

If the U.S. economy keeps outperforming, and rate cuts don’t arrive on schedule, the dollar could keep grinding higher — catching traders flat-footed and pressuring global equities.

🎰 Did You Catch This?!

What if you could risk $37… for a shot at $463?

In his latest WealthPin newsletter, Alex Reid breaks down “the most boring 1,000% trade” he’s ever seen — a long-shot setup on TLT that could pay off if bonds rebound hard.

If you’re betting the crowd is wrong on rates, this is one way to do it.
