Mindful Trader Commentary For August 12, 2026


Hey Guys,


The market is up some to start the morning.  The S&P 500 is around 7,750 right now, which is where it was when I emailed at the start of this week.  So it's been hovering around that level the past few days.


I had a couple of stock trades get closed since my last email.  My trade for DPZ reached its profit target.  My trade for BIP reached its time limit this morning, so I manually closed it at the opening bell.  That one ended up with a loss, but the two trades combined netted a profit.


I took on some new trades today.  In the stocks account, I bought positions for BMY and FXI.  In the options account, I bought the options for BMY.


If you have any questions, just reply directly to this email.
