    I noticed the same today, you talked about a similar pattern two weeks ago or so. Decided as a consequence to take profit on all the short strangles I had on. Better not to leave money on the table now.

    Nothing too fancy on my side: big market ETFs such as SPY, QQQ, IWM and large caps to complement.

    They couldn't even stop for a full year. Of course the keyword is, as always, "temporary"... Wondering how long before the ECB announces the same. Not sure even the US economy can sustain current rates.

    Any chance he would like to share his story on your podcast ? I think it would make for a great episode. As someone who started and runs a small RE business and now struggles to see a path to growth beyond this "one-man-leveraging-his-own-little-capital" stage, which kind of hit a ceiling, I...

    Yeah nothing seems to make sense seriously... But if Mr Market and I disagree, I guess I'm likely to be the one who is wrong. Guess I'll just stick to selling strangles and adjust to whatever bullshit the market is throwing at me.

    Feeling sick ? Don't seek a cure, just break the thermometer and you're good to go ! (Not aiming at Biden & friends specifically, feels like any government does this these days, plus defining a recession as 2 consecutive negative growth quarters is arbitrary indeed to begin with, yet it's been...

    Quite amazing to see how little things and a rather simple idea can start a huge empire... After years of relentless execution in between of course. View: https://twitter.com/TechEmails/status/1550261661012897792?s=20&t=dr8H4EFOxMEV9p3eoNCJmw

    You could even have caught it at 0,9996 earlier today. Well, actually our beloved Lagarde, whom the whole world envies us, promised the ECB balance sheet would go down, somehow. She held true to her words, it just didn't happen the way you expected it. View...

    I can't believe how utterly stupid european bureaucrats are with their freaking sanctions seriously.

    The problem if you start thinking in terms of what the government and their friends may do or not do, is that you're likely to do nothing as there is no safe escape. History has shown countless times that they gladly change laws to suit their wants and needs and that they have no problem...

    Great list. First time going through this given my age obviously, but I started preparing for it a few years ago. I'm doing #1, #2 and #4 with my short term rental business. I would add borrowing at fixed rate in an inflating currency to finance this kind of cash flowing asset maybe ? Without...
