Traders need to know that US security system is designed for stocks to go up. Politicians do not like to see stocks to go down. Both Trump and Biden claimed they did the best job since stock market made record when they were or are President. All levels of governments make high tax revenue...

Whenever any real estate is included in the net worth, it is distorted. The housing is very expensive in China and Hong Kong. Chinese people do not feel they are rich since they need the residence to live. Real estate market there is in decline.

A lot of juice can be made from this market froth... Cryptos, SPACs, IPOs, stock buybacks, new debts etc.....

What you said is not accurate. For IB reg-T margin, I do not see intra-day margins any longer. At least for the contracts I trade, the intra-day and overnights margins are the same. It is such a strong statement that PM is for traders who know what they are doing. So the traders who use...

But for commodity, it probably does not make any difference. Before IB had the intra-day margins. But I think that and high BPs are actually harmful for most traders. When brokers offer low margins and high BPs, traders take more risks than they should.

It was interesting to see CL up about a dollar overnight with abundance of bearish news. Now it gave back all of that. Expect more choppy market. Expiration is up.

It seems PM is mostly for books with offsetting positions? Like long CL and short NG? Or long NASDAQ and Short S&P ETF? For my trading account, I do not see the difference of PM vs regular margin. So for simple trading book, probably PM does not matter much.

I do not care the essence of this lawsuit. But we can't call anyone "greedy" without any substantial evidence. Everyone has a right to seek truth and justice. This Bitcoin is a fraud anyhow. People do not even know who the "inventors" are. So absurd.

This is not quite right. The "green" is politically motivated. It promotes "green" energy at the expenses of fossil energy. But the "green" energy technology is not there. So government has to provide subsidies, like $7,500 credit for an EV. Same with solar. And all policies are against...
