Welcome to Market Pulse—my new corner of the blog where I dive into the chaos and opportunity of stocks, stock options, and the economic forces shaping the U.S. and beyond. As a trader who lives for the tick-by-tick action, I’m here to break down the latest market swings, decode what’s driving the indices, and share my takes on where the money’s flowing—whether it’s Tesla’s rollercoaster, crypto’s meltdowns, or the Fed’s next move. From Wall Street to global trade wars, this is where I’ll unpack the data, vent my opinions, and maybe even drop a few trading ideas. Expect sharp insights, a bit of grit, and a front-row seat to the economic engine—because in this game, staying ahead means staying obsessed.
Market Pulse highlights XRP’s potential resurgence fueled by recent ETF developments, regulatory wins, and institutional interest. Futures-based XRP ETFs are gaining traction, while the first U.S. spot ETF has launched. Analyst predictions suggest substantial inflows could drive prices to $8-$12, making XRP a compelling investment despite regulatory risks.
As a pastor, I’ve long prayed for Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s salvation. Trump’s life was spared by divine intervention, yet his actions don’t clearly show Jesus as his Savior. Musk’s SpaceX work reveals creation’s wonders, prompting my message to him about Romans 1:20. Both need Christ to have their names in the Lamb’s Book of Life (Revelation 20:15). Join me in praying: Father, lead Trump and Musk to accept Jesus’ sacrifice (1 Peter 1:18-19), that their influence may glorify You. Amen.
Every time I hear someone complain about today’s mortgage rates, I think about my parents. Back in 1987, they bought the house they still live in with a 30-year fixed mortgage rate of 10.40%. That’s right—double digits! Yet, they made it work, and so did countless others in the 1980s when rates were even crazier. […]
As of May 31, 2025, XRP trades at $2.10, reflecting a bearish outlook. Technical indicators signal potential downside with key support at $1.9409 and resistance levels around $2.0672 and $2.2791. Volume remains low, indicating uncertainty among traders. The coming weeks may determine XRP’s trend direction amid significant market catalysts.
XRP’s outlook dims as catalysts like the Ripple-SEC settlement and ETF launches fail to spark lasting gains. Stuck between $2.27 and $2.65, XRP faces bearish pressure while BitcoinGARLINGHOUSE Bitcoin soars to $111,000. The Trump administration’s pro-crypto moves haven’t lifted altcoins, and XRP’s community grows restless. Is hope fading for XRP
Trump’s economic GRAND SLAMS are unstoppable! China’s tariffs slashed to 10%, UK trade deal boosts Tesla exports, and a $600B Saudi pact fuels growth. Inflation’s cooling (CPI 2.8%), $TSLA soars to $1T, and global ceasefires show leadership. Yet, @GoldmanSachs & @BlackRock downplay the wins. Wall Street, sync your headlines! Trump’s vision drives jobs, markets, and stability. Investors, ride the MAGA momentum with @Citadel & @ARKInvest . #TrumpWins #EconomyRoars #WallStreetWakeUp #TeslaSurge #ChinaTrade #UKTradeDeal #SaudiDeal
XRP’s Downward Trend: Is There Hope on the Horizon for Investors? XRP investors are feeling the heat as the cryptocurrency continues its downward spiral, dropping 1.03% on April 25, 2025, to $2.1825, while the broader crypto market gained 0.57%. This follows a 0.61% loss the previous day and a 0.23% dip on April 19, amid […]
As a Trump supporter, I’m disheartened by his first 100 days. Tariffs triggered stock market crashes, costing me tens of thousands. Prices are up, interest rates sting, and no peace deals—especially on Ukraine-Russia—have materialized. I feel misled about tariffs; U.S. importers, not China, pay. Yet, immigration wins and deregulation show promise. I’m hoping Trump’s dealmaking secures trade agreements and growth by July. Are you frustrated too?

As a Trump supporter, I back his vision for fair trade but question his tariffs, which have cost me tens of thousands in stock market losses. Tariffs are paid by U.S. importers, not China, despite the rhetoric. The $21 billion raised could fund growth, but risks like recession loom. I hope Trump’s “Art of the Deal” secures better trade deals and revives U.S. manufacturing. Read my full blog post for why I’m cautiously optimistic these sacrifices will strengthen America.
Tariffs are back, echoing the Civil War era when they split North and South. Today, Trump pairs them with deregulation, big tax cuts, and energy independence to fix trade imbalances and unsustainable debt. Historically, tariffs fueled America’s industrial boom—could they spark another? This pro-growth mix aims to bring jobs home, but risks higher prices and global retaliation. The U.S. can’t keep borrowing forever—tariffs, with smart policy, might reset the economy for a stronger future. Dive into our blog for the full story on this divisive, high-stakes debate.
