Wendy's has a lot of debt, but it's hard not to like them, plus they are pumped via WallSt Bets. Stock is trending up. Get them frosty and fries.

Scotts Miracle Grow broke out to the upside. Bullish.

$SMG break out. Looks like a good buy with room to run

This is more about collections. If you are only interested in buying silver close to spot, this is not for you.

I do believe there is value in buying some US Mint products.

Highlighting below, there are new special coins honoring 250 years of America. Many now have the 250 and liberty bell insignia for 2026. Note these are a bit pricey over spot, but also note that some have limited mintage.

1. These sets are honoring the coinage from the past. https://www.usmint.gov/best-of-the-mint-1916-standing-liberty-quarter-dollar-gold-coin-and-silver-medal-set-26BM2.html

2. These 2026 Morgan and Peace dollars have the 250 liberty insignia: https://www.usmint.gov/coins/coin-programs/morgan-and-peace-silver-dollar-coins/shop/

3. The annual sets show new coins. These can be great gifts for children: https://www.usmint.gov/uncirculated-coin-set-2026-26RJ.html

4. And the the FIFA world cup coin is also very cool. FIFA was a great success for the country, and many Europeans found that America was not as advertised by their media back home. One quote that went viral: “If you want to hate the U.S, listen to the media. If you want to love the U.S drive across it”: https://www.usmint.gov/fifa-world-cup-2026-proof-silver-dollar-26CC.html

There are more of course but I wanted highlight some.

Brown-Forman makers of Jack Daniels and other whiskey and bourbon has been beaten down. Lots of value here as 2 companies tried to buy them out. I've been an owner in this stock and collecting dividends.

$BF.B The growth is in the pre-made cocktail cans. Places like Idaho where it is hard to get a bar liquor license can just sell these pre-made drinks like beer or wine.

And Martin Armstrong models have strong conviction that oil will be bullish over the next 2 years. Politicians need war to distract from their sovereign debt crisis.

$SM supply destruction versus demand destruction. My bet over the next two years is oil will move up with war flair ups and necessity.

I just got Helium mobile for $15 a month. I'm using the phone number as a throw away for when buying products, apps and for using loyalty programs.

I won't care if this phone gets spammed to death. Nice way to keep your regular phone number clean.

Helium support was great. Don't fear it. I'm using an old iPhone 7+. Make sure you double check if you need a physical SIM card. Helium will send you one for an extra $10.

Of course if you are strapped for cash a $15 a month phone plan is pretty great. It is however a pain in the ass to change your phone number. But if you have the time, it could be a good option.

$HNT.X $HNT.X I can't help but think about when satellite mobile was rolling out and Cell providers were adding towers all over the country and ended up eating the satellite phones lunch. Will we see something similar with something like Helium? Are we back to satellite versus on the ground rollout?

Closing out June, there is a Hangman candle on the monthly level.

This is a bearish signal. Not a guarantee, but we could see a correction soon based on this monthly closing.

Martin Armstrong also noted this market is getting tired.

Not predicting a crash. Just a warning.

$SPY $QQQ Looks like we have a monthly hangman on both the S&P and Nasdaq. Looks like a good probability we will get a correction from here.
