Falcon’s View – Week of Aug 11

How I analyze:

I focus on three aspects:

1. Crowd interest/positioning – are more or fewer investors buying/holding?

2. Fundamentals – revenue, earnings, margins, guidance.

3. Price action – trend, momentum, key moves.

Week‑on‑week performance:

• S&P 500: +0,94%

• Nasdaq‑100: +0,35%

• My portfolio: +1,49%

Market pulse:

Two prints pulled the market in opposite directions. CPI on Tuesday was basically in line, nudging rate‑cut odds for the next Fed meeting up to ~98%. Then PPI on Thursday came in hot, pulling those odds back toward ~90%. We saw a small downdraft after PPI, with the Nasdaq‑100 round‑tripping to roughly flat on the week.

Short on time? The TL;DR and my weekly actions are at the end.
