Hi All - Happy Saturday and welcome back to Street Tweets from The Street Sheet. 

Well, I have some lingering vertigo from the past week, but at least I can breathe again. We have a whole quarter til the next NVIDIA report, so for a blessed three months, we don’t have to worry about the economy crashing because a single company couldn’t quite double its sales again…

Together With RYSE

This smart home company grew 200% year-over-year …

No, it’s not Ring or Nest — it’s RYSE, a leader in smart shade automation, and you can invest for just $1.90 per share.

RYSE’s innovative SmartShades have already transformed how people control their window coverings, bringing automation to homes without the need for expensive replacements. With 10 fully granted patents and a game-changing Amazon court judgment protecting their tech, RYSE is building a moat in a market projected to grow 23% annually.

This year alone, RYSE has seen revenue grow by 200% year over year and expanded into 127 Best Buy stores, with international markets on the horizon. Plus, with partnerships with major retailers like Home Depot and Lowe’s already in the works, they’re just getting started.

Now is your chance to invest in the company disrupting home automation — before they hit their next phase of explosive growth. But don’t wait; this opportunity won’t last long.

Market Review:

Wall Street closed out a turbulent week with a strong finish, despite a volatile month for major indices. Friday’s rally saw the S&P 500 rise by 1.59%, the Dow Jones climb 1.39%, and the Nasdaq Composite gain 1.63%.

However, geopolitical tensions briefly rattled markets after President Trump and Ukrainian President Zelenskyy clashed in the Oval Office over a potential Ukraine mineral rights deal. This confrontation sparked fears of escalating global risks, and the Cboe Volatility Index spiked.

Zooming out, the Nasdaq had its worst month since April 2024, falling nearly 4%, while the S&P 500 dropped 1% in February. Concerns over tariffs and disappointing earnings reports, including a sharp decline in NVIDIA’s stock, also weighed on investor sentiment.

Market Preview:

Next week on Wall Street will kick off with the final manufacturing PMI and ISM manufacturing readings for February. On Monday, we’ll also get construction spending and auto sales data for January and February, respectively.

Tuesday will be quieter on the economic data front, but the presidents of the New York and Richmond Federal Reserve will both speak.

On Wednesday, investors will focus on ADP employment data, factory orders, and ISM services for February, along with the Fed's Beige Book.

Thursday will bring initial jobless claims, US productivity, trade deficit, and wholesale inventories for January.

Finally, the week will close out on Friday with the US jobs report and unemployment rate for February.

For those who don’t want to click through to see the full picture…

The basic gist is, Millennials and Gen Xers are far more focused on building generational wealth, while Boomers seem more inclined to enjoy their money while they can.

Generational divide? Or are younger people simply more willing to spend theoretical money, and older people less willing to spend actual funds?

Companies are staying private for longer.

Can you really blame them?

We just watched NVIDIA’s stock shed 8% following a quarter when its sales rose 78%.

Miss me with those expectations.

What happened to the Elon who wanted us to all hand our jobs over to AI and just spend our lives making art instead?

I’d like to see him have a hand in federal policy.

Although granted, that wouldn’t do wonders for labor data either…

Your Competitors Are Creating Content. Are You?

Creating high-quality, consistent content isn’t easy.

• You need content that speaks to your audience—but finding writers who understand financial services is a struggle.

• Your marketing team is stretched thin—content keeps getting pushed to the bottom of the priority list.

• You know thought leadership matters—but crafting compelling blogs, newsletters, and LinkedIn posts takes time you don’t have.

At Money Marketers, we take content marketing off your plate. 

Our team of financial writers and strategists deliver high-level, compliance-driven content that builds trust, nurtures leads, and positions you as an industry leader—without the constant headache of doing it yourself.

Let’s talk about how we can help.

Oof.

You know it’s bad when our debt exceeds Berkshire Hathaway’s market cap.

Scary — without context.

Couple things here.

First, GDPNow is not the official Atlanta Fed projection. It’s a purely mathematical model, without any subjective adjustments.

Second, a subjective adjustment might have corrected for a record widening of the merchandise trade deficit at last reading. Imports vastly outpaced exports, as companies rushed to beat tariffs to the punch.

And a growing trade deficit represents a subtraction to GDP.

In other words, the squiggly line might be less of a measured take, and more a reactive reflection of outlier data. Who’d’a thunk it?
