Markets have a rhythm — sometimes elegant, sometimes erratic — but always cyclical. For all the talk of endless rallies and perpetual bull markets, the statistical reality is humbling: stocks ...
Eighteen analysts, each paid to see the future, and they can’t even agree on which direction the rocket’s pointing. The average target for Bloom Energy sits at $64.35, a number that looks calm and sensible until you peek under the hood. The bulls are screaming $115, while the bears are whispering $10, and that $105 gap between them isn’t a typo — it’s a confession. It says loud and clear: volatility is the name of the game.

Welcome to the main event — Wall Street versus Washington, a bout so choreographed it makes professional wrestling look spontaneous. The Fed steps into the ring, promising to “fight inflation,” while quietly greasing the ropes with liquidity. Congress takes its corner, talking tough about “balancing the budget,” but somehow the debt ceiling keeps rising like an encore. Investors, meanwhile, sit ringside pretending to “trust the system,” even as they know the match is fixed.
Here’s the deal: fifteen of those hotshots have put their reputations on the line. The high forecast sits at $105, the low down at $68, with the middle ground hanging around $81.11. That spread — thirty-seven bucks of daylight between the dreamers and the doomsayers — is your volatility clue. It’s the size of the boxing ring you’re stepping into.

Government “plans” always sound like a hangover cure invented at 3 a.m. — equal parts moonshine, aspirin, and prayer. Treasury Secretary Bessent wants to re-industrialize America by flattening the Fed and inflating the dollar like a Macy’s parade balloon. It worked once, during WWII, when bureaucrats put the Fed on a leash and barked orders about bond yields. But like most government solutions, it came with all the subtlety of a bar fight. The irony? To make Main Street great again, Bessent is doubling down on the same money-printing racket he claims to despise.
Wall Street’s got 11 analysts throwing darts at Arrowhead, and the “average” target is $36. Big whoop. The real story isn’t the middle number — it’s the gap between the bulls and the bears. One camp says this thing can run to $80, the other swears it’s worth only $12. That’s a $68 spread on a $34 stock. Let that sink in. These aren’t bored Reddit posters guessing in between Monster Energy chugs — these are professionals who live and breathe this company, comb through every line of every filing, and still come out with forecasts that look like they’re describing two completely different planets. That variance is the proof in the pudding.
The words “IS” and “SHOULD” are fascinating little beasts to define. What is happening? What should happen? Two entirely different universes, and yet traders — and yes, entire newsrooms — mash them together like a bad cocktail. Back when I was starting out, I lived in the land of “SHOULD.” It was my natural habitat. The dollar should weaken, inflation should push gold higher, markets should reward my uncanny foresight. Except they didn’t. They don’t care. And what fascinates me most is that the financial media seems just as drunk on “SHOULD” as I once was. Turn on the television and you’ll see it everywhere: anchors dutifully reporting what is happening — GDP growth, rate cuts, deficits — then immediately pivoting to some sweeping sermon about what should happen because of it. The result? A murky stew where hard facts and wishful thinking blend together until nobody can tell which is which. And if you’re trading off that brew, you’re not an investor — you’re a mystic with a margin account.
