I always think how the fuck was this guy a hedge fund manager?

I like trading emerging markets and perhaps the more "exotic/frontier" the better. That's where the moves are. And they go to hell and back on a regular (annual?) schedule :) In fact, the other day I was looking into where USD/ARS is available. Only on institutional platforms. Just have to trade...

Of course Japan is demographically dying! It's not my opinion. It's a fact. Birth rate 7.7 births/1,000 population (2017 est.) Death rate 9.8 deaths/1,000 population (2017 est.) When birth rate is sub-replacement the country is demographically dying. Belive it or not... this also applies to...

But you said you don't like buying them either which would result in swap credits. This is due to the higher systemic risk of dislocation, right?

My assessment in the post is accurate. Several extremely substantial institutional platforms are open albeit with very low liqudity/volume levels.

Spot

Why?

I wish he was just a little more specific. P.S. Since GRULSTMRNN liked this is it safe to assume that this particular Jew was not part of the JOOS worldwide conspiracy? :D P.P.S. Wait, I think I get it. It wasn't suicide. JOOS killed him for the grand betrayal of telling the truth about Japan!!@@@

Interventions tend to be (always?) against fundamentals. They don't change really change the fundamentals. They obviously change supply and demand which changes price. If they spend enough reserves on the intervention then I guess in that sense that changes fundamentals but that takes time.

What instruments do you use for long-term positions? Spot? Do you just pay negative carry?

I said specifically, in terms of demographics and that cannot be disputed. I tried to keep it pretty fact-based in what I wrote and I think I did a fair job. Don't see how any of it relates to the all-purpose JOOS-ARE-IN-YOUR-SOUP! Facts (economic indicators) seem to be pointing that Germany...

No question swissie and yen are risk-off.

Kind off topic but looking to learn. 1. I've heard about infrastructure crumbling but I don't see it. What's crumbling exactly? And what are we comparing the infrastructure to? Zimbabwe or Switzerland? 2. Performance on what metrics? You mean education tests or something like that? 3. Japan...

I'm not sure what you're referring to. The last Swissie intervention was to devalue the Swissie and the drop of the floor resulted in the most violent intervention-related trading in FX ever.

like what?

I'm guessing yes that it adds a huge risk factor over the long-term if you're taking a side counter to their central banks' directional preferences but just want to confirm.

All retail platforms are closed and even some institutional; liquidity is low but there are 24/7 institutional platforms. Where can a retail person check a quote during the weekend?

Well, you said he's violating SEC rules on this. If that's true, let's report his ass. If it's not true, let's not say that :)

And he refused? I don't know the regulations. Does he have to provide it to any AI who asks or only to investors he already accepted?
