🔚 Final Thoughts:

May reminded us why futures trading is a game of discipline, not prediction. With a YTD return now at 200%, GAR Futures continues to outperform markets — not by guessing direction, but by executing structure with conviction.

We didn't just beat the market — we beat every major futures index and asset class by a wide margin. On to June - same focus, same edge. See you all on the trading floor - CEO Carlos G. GAR Capital
