1. Planet Labs (PL) In our first Weekend Update of 2026 we set out three bullish themes for the year: Silver, TSLA, and SpaceX(via space themed stocks). So far, two of three are up gangbusters. You're welcome. The only real surprise has been the big percentage gains on the third theme, one which we started off with a new pick, PL. We expected this one to follow in the footsteps of RKLB and ASTS, as both were in the low $20's at the turn of 2025 and finished off the year knocking on the door of triple digits. PL is well on its way of doing the same, starting the new year in the low $20's but with much, much higher price expectations into the end of the new year. PL Gains - First Two Weeks of January As would be expected, the nearer term calls are outperforming the longer term calls. Expect to roll over Feb into Mar/Apr in four weeks. RKLB Weekly ASTS Weekly PL Weekly The projection now is for a third wave high into the mid-$30's, followed by a Wave 4 pullback of a shallow nature (38%) then a breakout of that retracement with a dynamic Wave 5 Buy Signal that takes PL to triple digits toward the 4th quarter of the year. 2. Silver Next from the list of Bullish Bets for the new year is Silver. First off, a review of the 2025-2026 SLV bets from both Premium and PRO Option Tables: SLV - Premium Service Trades SLV - PRO Service Trades Both services show stellar SLV trades, especially during the sweet spot encompassing much of the 4th quarter of last year. One more quarter of gains like that and my ego will explode. Wear a hat. Silver - Pattern Recognition Charts Much has already been posted here and analyzed almost daily, about our premier bet going forward this year. Below are a few of my favorite pattern recognition charts (from X) to review, some food for thought as all point toward much higher prices to come, short, intermediate and longer term. Nonetheless, I like my trading charts better, a home cooking sort of bias and I've already posted most. This is an updated Spot Silver Daily chart, encompassing both bullish and bearish scenarios for the intermediate term: Spot Silver - Daily This EW structure allows for a Wave iv correction into the mid-$80's and/or a more imminent Wave v of 5 rally toward $100+. Support comes in around $84 (previous resistance) or the lower blue parallel channel, around $80. Spot Silver - Log Scale Long Term Just for fun, I went back over 200 years and used a log scale to draw my parallel trend channels. Best fit price action is suggesting $140 to $400 for next 1-5 years. Not surprisingly, my target coincides with this "Cup and Handle" projection done by this X contributor. 3. Tesla (Finally, Something That Hasn't Worked...Yet) Below is a new TSLA 2-Day chart that seems most likely, basis the price action of the past year. A breakout to new highs anytime in the coming months will strongly suggest a third wave advance unfolding with Waves 3 and 5 possible in coming two years. We will be aggressively buying intermediate term calls on any such breakout. On a personal note, after my third free trial of Full Self Driving on my Model Y, I bought the paid version to drive me around the desert. The technology is astonishing, the driving safer, more enjoyable and my only complaint being that if I check my email on my phone while FSD is engaged, it detects my inattention to the road and disengages...even if I am wearing sunglasses. Thus, I'll pass on taking naps in the back seat...for now. Unless and until prices can breakout above $500, there is no sense holding wasting assets like calls or LEAPS. Above $500, well, that is a different scenario entirely. Wave 3 will be a wonder to behold! That's it for this weekend. Remember, no market on Monday, but Silver will be trading elsewhere around the globe. Try not to look...especially if you are driving. Active Option Tables PRO Service Premium Service
