Trump Has This Wind Energy Group on its Heels
Yesterday, I mentioned how shorting rallies has been my mantra in 2025.
The truth is… I believe markets will remain volatile in the short-term and possibly the rest of the year.
Here’s why…
Recent data shows the S&P 500 declined 7.9% between Jan. 20 and April 25.
And overall – the first 100 days under a new administration with a weak economy is often a negative indicator for the future.
In fact, a below-average first 100 days saw a full-year average decline of 5.5%, according to data from the independent research firm CFRA.
I know that might cause some concern as a trader, but panicking is the opposite of what you want to do right now.
Case in point…
Yesterday, I closed a SPY put trade in Catalyst Cash-Outs for a 21% winner in 1 trading day.
We’ve also closed 100% of our trades for winners in Cashouts for the month of April.
I’m not just showing you these stats to brag.
I show them to prove how volatile markets give traders immense opportunity – if they use the right strategies.
And one of those strategies is buying puts when a stock could break to the downside.
So today I’m giving you another stock on my watchlist for a potential put trade.
Here’s the setup…
On Wednesday of this week, President Donald Trump issued an order to stop construction on a major offshore wind project to power more than 500,000 New York homes.
This has been part of an ongoing trend with Trump, as he’s been consistently curtailing wind projects during his first 100 days of office.
Back in January, Trump signed an executive order to temporarily halt offshore wind lease sales in federal waters.
This means industry leaders (and those that have committed billions in them) are under serious threat.
Which is why I’m watching Dominion Energy (D) for a put trade right now.
Dominion Energy has over $10 billion invested in wind energy construction costs. So it’s a major player.
If its work dries up, its stock could see a dip.
Action Plan: Trump’s series of moves to halt offshore wind could hurt heavily invested companies like Dominion.
It’s why I’m looking at the energy company for a put trade in The War Room.
And while wind energy could suffer during Trump’s presidency, there’s one energy company that the President is personally backing.
My colleague Karim Rahemtulla even went as far as to call this company the next “great value stock.”
Plus it just partnered with the hottest AI stock on Wall Street to combine energy with automation.
