Epstein also touches on the drop in jobless claims and anticipates upcoming economic data releases, including manufacturing surveys and consumer sentiment, which could further influence market dynamics.

Additionally, he expresses concern over geopolitical events, particularly a meeting between President Trump and President Putin, and concludes with insights from his recent report on the U.S. dollar and its future trends.
