📬 This Week at Investor Central Club - July Heats Up, Big Bill Passes, and STAX Keeps Printing

Max's Livestreams, 1K Challenge Update, Closing Bell STAX AI review TODAY!

Hey ICC Traders,

This week in the markets, legislative momentum and darkpool momentum both made waves — even if earnings took a back seat.

REMINDER: Markets are CLOSED July 4th! Plan accordingly!

Let’s dive into what you need to know.

🏛️ “Big Beautiful Bill” Passes the Senate

The Senate officially passed what’s been dubbed the “Big Beautiful Bill” — a sweeping package aimed at infrastructure, AI innovation, and defense modernization.

📈 Market Reaction:

  • Defense, AI, and infrastructure names caught a strong bid

  • Traders rotated into semiconductors and industrials

  • The bill created a short-term tailwind for select sectors, despite broader market chop

With earnings season still a couple weeks out, this policy move is one of the biggest catalysts so far in July.
