Where is the money from the IPO going? I do not follow IPOs or trade them.

10 year yields of 6% is definite risk off. Why put money in stocks if I can make 6% a year on my cash with no worries of capital loss. shit if we hit 13% I will put all my money in 10 year notes. Only a moron would bother trading if you can get 13% yields on your money.

Trump aint stupid. 100m is a nice chunk of change.

The way it works is you put the bills slightly sticking up on on the palm of your hand on the steering wheel. If he is cool with it he will just pull it out of your hand and everything is good to go.

For me its 99% Strategy 1% trading.

Trading should not be some sort of entertainment where you trade just out of boredom. I will wait weeks for the right setup, remember this is your capital you need to protect it.

10yr note touching 3.20% Yield. Lets see where this goes, will be interesting to see how long before it reaches 3.5%

Actually not even 2 dollars. Hyperinflation is a bitch it will come out of left field and get you by surprise. just a few years ago that amount of cash would make you very comfortable.

The harder you sweat for it the harder you protect it. It took a shit load of sweat equity to get to my position in life, no way am I going to squander it via stupidity. Think about it, why don't drug dealers quit when they are ahead. IF you made 40 million why not just disappear and retire...

I have a bit over 8 million in cash, Not sure what to spend it on? Anyone have any ideas.

Kids today raised in sterile coccons. I dont remember all this Peanut allergy shit when I Was a kid. now kids are dying if peanut butter touches thier body. WTF! And all the drugs they give boys to shut them up and keep them quiet and in the corner. You are seeing the effects as they become...

My mistake was complacency. the 10 year note was signaling distress ahead I had a profit on the table and should have closed when gut said hey why not enter that new trade you are thinking about and close the other. I got kind of lazy and complacent and too my eyes off the ball busy fucking...

I could care less I am licking my wounds today and waiting for an opportunity that offers me an appropriate risk adjusted profit. :) Like an idiot I ignored that increasing 10 year yield, I smelled smoke but got complacent. Lost 3K and and of course opportunity cost, I was thinking of entering...

Positive for the year (minus 3200 bucks) but If I would have been an idiot, or using Hope as a strategy, or tried to ride it out our double down to hope for a profit it would have been bad. If I would have been dumb enough to wait for an upswing I would have been down 22K easy by near closing...
