Atticus, what prompted you to move from NYC to Tahoe?

John Taylor of FX Concepts thinks Japan can last for many more years without a sovereign debt problem because of the nation's current overall trade surplus, domestic ownership of JGBs, and corporate investment. I think the market perception of governments that can print their own currency...

Peak equity was 2 years ago. I say no. You should probably know what kind of strategies he's employing and how much leverage he's using, if any. Consistent returns can mask high risk if, for example, it's a strategy based on selling far OTM options only to see a tail risk wipe out all the equity.

There are numerous traders on this website who will trade your money for you on a profit split basis, but I don't know how much you will have left in a few months. Very possible to see the account go to a big fat zero.

He has different funds. Japan Macro Opportunities is one of them. http://www.scribd.com/doc/94194863/Kyle-Bass-April

Mine expired many weeks ago, but I haven't renewed yet. I have become adept at avoiding computer viruses by now, which I learned mostly came from clicking on pictures of naked women and visiting certain questionable websites.

Nothing wrong with that because it's the nature of technology that allowed him to create social networking, a vast market that had never existed before. FB has been able to get nearly 1 billion users in 8 years, which is something never accomplished in history until Zuckerberg. Historically...

I think neke was too sure that this trade was going to work out that he took for granted that $700 was automatically his, then he got the deer stuck in headlights syndrome when the "unthinkable" happened and GOOG crashed into the close with only ~ 1 hour left.

I think so. Markets all around the world are down big with routine > -2% declines, yet SPX musters pathetic declines not even -1%.

I have heard a trader taking $10,000 (a small part of his equity) and doubling that money for many consecutive instances, thus turning that into $300,000 in weeks, or $20k to $500k in a couple of months. Each time he would roll over all his profits and original principle into the next trade...
