The market:

If I asked someone in my employ if they were a trustworthy person…and they said, “…no.”

…my brain worms would hurt from trying to figure out if they were being honest or not.

I’ll give it a read, thanks.

Yet…you’ve had a lot of Dems like Warren calling for rate cuts…no one on the GOP side has said shit about the Cook situation in any meaningful way…nor has any of the CEOs of the largest businesses and banks made any sort of statements.

So…they sure have a funny way of showing it.

Did anyone watch the Warren interview today on CNBC? I was dealing w/ an angry random dog situation while it was on, but I heard her excoriating Trump for making the fed less independent in a clip played later in the day.

I was just wondering if anyone called her out the irony of the argument.

If you’ve ever wondered why I’m critical of Warren, it’s the same reason I’ve consistently trashed both her & Trump for their economic policy:

…the independence of the fed is paramount above all else.

If you don’t believe that, I don’t know what to tell you other than…enjoy your banana republic.

Steve Liesman is doing a masterful job of handling bootlicking Sara Eisen’s warped perspective on this Cook situation.

Play her out, Steve.

I recently met a guy who works for Mint and was there in the early stages…when he told me, I immediately looked at him in slight disgust and congratulated him on being set for life….in response, he gave me one of these…

Shocking.

He wasn’t a celebrity, but I do remember Martha Stewart was briefly involved…so yeah, that’d work.

He was the angriest of little men on CNBC at the time and it turned out that not only was he a fraud, but he was running an illegal sweatshop w/ McConnell’s blessing.

I leave it up to her, b/c she’s the beneficiary. She’d rather play it safe w/ that relatively small piece of the pie…even tho she won’t need the $.

The way I understand it, she’d rather it replace the Social Security we’ve been paying into our entire lives, of which we’ll likely never see a dime.

I’m vested in CalPERS….and every month I get pissed off b/c I outperform them.

I always wonder if I should just pull the funds, take the hit for doing so early and manage the lump sum on my own…but I don’t plan on out-living my wife or even getting to an age where I don’t get slapped w/ a penalty…

It’s unfortunate, b/c there’s a way to do this w/o being a quid pro quo at perhaps the expense of national security, but as a means to an end to a logical trading policy that keeps China hooked on American made platforms.

…but that requires nuanced critical thinking, which seems in short supply.

The number of celebrity SPACs born in 2020-2021 that have since died is a story begging for a book deal, w/ film rights optioned shortly thereafter.

Unfortunately, Hollywood would rather vilify Wall St., rather than call out its own for being equally big pieces of shit.

This is the worst timeline.

As someone who watches @cnbc religiously (as long as Cramer and/or Kernen are not on-camera), today I walked away thinking two things:

1) Elizabeth Warren drinks her own kool-aid w/ the best of her GOP counterparts.

2) The funniest words uttered on the channel today were: “…btw, nice tie.”

iykyk.

I don’t think the singing and dancing cat analogy is the flex they think it is.

It’s time to party like it’s 2021…until shorts and longs both get rekt.

Have at it, people.

I sometimes find myself wondering:

“…who the fuck is palomar-something-or-other at BlueSky…and why have they blocked me?”

…and then I usually just go back to Threads (not like it’s any better).

Yes. I mean, not as in depth as I plan to…but I am more of a TA trader than a fundamental one.

I like Carter’s term: “funnymentals” Look at $GOOG vs. $TSLA, what do the fundamentals say about those two stocks?

I fully expect to be a trading samurai upon completion.

With new doors being installed throughout the house, including the office; I’m going to hop back into bed w/ our scurdy-cat dog and tuck in w/ a new book.

I’m a serious nerd.

Said book?

"Japanese Candlestick Charting Techniques" by Steve Nison.
