This week, the U.S. stock market experienced mixed performance amid geopolitical tensions and the Federal Reserve's latest policy decision. The S&P 500 slipped 0.4%, the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.6%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 1.3%, snapping a three-week winning streak for major indexes. On Friday, June 13, stocks plunged due to escalating Israel-Iran tensions, with oil prices surging 8-9%. The Fed held interest rates steady at 4.25%-4.5% on Wednesday, signaling two potential rate cuts in 2025 but expressing caution due to tariff-related inflation concerns. Energy stocks outperformed, while financials lagged. Investors also monitored U.S.-China trade talks, with optimism fading as no major deals were finalized

$GXO ( ▲ 11.13% ) Logistics and the Wincanton acquisition was approved by the UK regulators (we’ve been waiting on this) and that is one hurdle out of the way.

GXO Announces Patrick Kelleher as Chief Executive Officer.

Moving on….

Every quarter we tend to make changes to our PDF report in attempts to make it better and more efficient.

We made some changes heading into Q3 with help of my Summer interns and they are for the better.

The whole point of the report is to make it “quick-read” so that readers can find ideas and notes in a matter of moments, and, if needed, expand on the ideas further with their own research.

This new update makes it easier to get key data on names we’re tracking and the ideas that need more work we’ll work on in DeltaOne.

⭐LongVol Investor Conference 2025⭐

And finally…. The LongVol Fall Investor Conference has been scheduled from November 10-14th in Phoenix. This is going to be a great event with 4-days of learning, a day of golf and a final night at my favorite wing spot and local dive bar in Phoenix called JTs Wings, we’ll be renting out the bar/event space for everyone who attends and it will be a great time to meet other members, learn and wind down the trading year.

✅ Conclusion:

Overall a good week for some of the names in the report amidst the geo-political uncertainty and constantly changing headlines almost every hour.

• OPEX Friday so mixed action

• Mid-East situation creates headline risk/whipsaw and headline driven broad market which makes things binary

• Not a fan of over-weight broad market here at these levels into end of June and end of Q2

• $HIMS ( ▲ 3.49% ) remains on watch for new all-time highs
