Tom Sosnoff, Scott Sheridan, and Sol are back post-Memorial Day weekend to a market that feels like it's living in a different dimension from everyone else. The Nasdaq crossed 30,000, call skew appeared in S&P options for the first time in years—a rare warning sign that the market is pricing in explosive upside velocity—and yet the class of 2026 is graduating into the toughest entry-level job market in four years. Tom walks through his four trades of the week including a bearish semiconductor play, a SPY call spread, a crude oil iron condor, and a Marvell earnings setup. Then Scott gets into a practical, no-nonsense breakdown of exactly how they find new trades. Callers weigh in on earnings trading heuristics, the SpaceX IPO, and what happens to space stocks after the big listing.

The Nasdaq hitting 30,000 while new grad unemployment sits at a four-year high tells you almost everything about the economic moment we're in right now—the market and the labor market are running on completely different tracks. Entry-level job seekers are dealing with the tightest hiring environment since before the pandemic, a growing sense that AI is a scapegoat for layoffs companies were planning anyway, and degrees that feel less certain than they did four years ago. At the same time, options markets are flashing something genuinely unusual: call skew in S&P index options, which happens maybe 5% of the time and historically signals that the market perceives the next big velocity move is to the upside, not the downside. Whether you're navigating that market with options strategies or navigating a job market that doesn't reward linear career thinking the way it used to, the underlying question is the same—do you actually know what you're worth, and are you positioning yourself correctly?
