Gareth Soloway argues the market is trading around a few major catalysts at once: a possible Iran deal, the SpaceX IPO, and the ongoing tug-of-war between inflation/oil and risk assets. He is bullish on a near-term bounce in several beaten-down mega-cap tech names and cautious-to-bearish on oil, gold, and Bitcoin unless they reclaim key levels, while treating the SpaceX IPO as a hype-driven event he would not buy on day one.

Gareth Soloway opens by framing the day as a high-stakes setup dominated by three themes: a potential U.S.-Iran deal, the SpaceX IPO, and the market’s response to inflation-sensitive assets like oil, yields, gold, and Bitcoin. He presents himself as a chart-first trader who rejects narrative trading and repeatedly emphasizes probabilities, support/resistance, and trend confirmation. On Iran and oil, his core view is that the market is pricing in a real chance of a deal because oil had already fallen into the mid-$80s. He ties this to both market reaction and politics: the administration wants lower inflation into the election season, and he implies lower oil would help the White House and Republicans’ chances in November. …
Near term, the setup is for a relief bounce in equities and select megacap tech names as long as the market keeps respecting recent support and oil stays soft. The immediate risk is a failed bounce if yields or crude reverse higher, which would quickly reprice the post-Iran/IPO optimism.
Over the next several weeks, he expects the market to decide whether this is a real trend turn or just a lower-high inside a broader correction. Confirmation would come from higher highs in equities, Bitcoin above 64,200, and continued weakness in oil; invalidation would be a return to lower lows and renewed pressure in gold and growth stocks.
Structurally, the video argues that price structure and liquidity dominate headlines, and that AI mega-caps, debt, and inflation will keep shaping index behavior. Even if the day-to-day news flow changes, the enduring regime is one where charts, rates, and concentration risk matter more than the stories attached to them.
