i retract my prior squeeze comments, what im seeing from elders is that when you have weak order volume resulting in super batshit swings, yeah thats a squeeze.

mea culpa.

Everyone is saying this but no one is saying what to do to not lose everything

i mean, lotta people are going to cash, theres that. but dont overlook the fact that this guy is probably a whole idiot and if the S&P blooms 20% a year for the next 3 years and THEN shits itself, the people who missed out on that growth arent heros, they didnt win the game. i really just posted it because the source of the opinion is interesting and its an interesting macro take. id caution anyone against basing decisions around it tho.

[sonatine]

can vouch that this is a thing

This would be analogous to reports of large numbers of troops at Ft. Bragg.

someone just described the root of the 87 crash as 'the illusion of liquidity' and i am honestly kinda shook.

Honestly that’s poetry.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren now wants to ban all state lawmakers and elected officials from trading corporate stocks

I mean we get it. Ok, more than annoyed that it was so blatant these past two years but we always knew how folks on the Hill got wealthy.

I have been no particular fan of Warren but it’s funny how I’m now interested. Perhaps even warming.

What crushed any last respect for the institution of the Fed was their members engaging in trading….. with little or no repercussion. If only there was a tracking fund.

I don’t know where we go from here but is there an institution with any dignity left? Greenspan might have been misguided and odd but I think he had moral fiber, for example. Maybe that wasn’t true and I was oblivious.

I want to return to naïveté (I don’t mean PFA).

warren is strangely pure. id gladly take whatever hit she had in mind if she became president. we all know theres a lot of poison meat that needs to get shaken off the bones, its just jarring to hear someone advocate for it openly.
