    Man Group's 2024 Economic Outlook

    What was their prediction for 2023? If it wasn't a booming Nasdaq then why would anyone listen to them? Did they also predict an explosion in CLOs & Private Credit?

    Delusional Trumpers

    This thread reminds me of the infamous Public Enemy song -- Anti-Nigger Machine (1990). Except the owners of media have now decided Trump is to be eliminated by any means necessary. Even with endless indictments & a 24/7 media hate machine Biden can't buy any support on the polls. It has to be...

    ARKK, continually trying to stay afloat

    I never understood why FNGU spreads are so wide? I guess it so volatile that they can't pin down a value at any given moment. Another strange spread is the options on RSP which have huge open interest but very wide spreads as compared to SPY or QQQ options. I gave up trading on RSP options as a...

    Can you hedge real estate?

    FPI is the largest farmland REIT. Is "prime developement land" intended to become retail or industrial. There are retail & industrial REITs that might be useful just in case. There are 17 different categories of REITs at least according to the TD Ameritrade screener.

    RIP

    George Clinton, Parliament, Funkadelic along with James Brown and Kraftwerk are the cornerstone of modern dance music. It all came together from 1970s Disco, 1980s SynthPop & Electro Funk (Afrika Bambaataa & the Soulsonic Force). And of course the 1990s Rave, House & Techno.

    Can you hedge real estate?

    I don't know if they exist but there might be REITs that specifically buy farmland. Those would be perfect to short. I know when the WFH narrative persisted that SL Green (SLG) & Vornado (VNO) were good shorts. They bottomed right after the SVB collapse. I guess if there is an actual credit...

    Biden’s job approval takes nosedive

    Well if you read r/Politics (reddit) almost every post is about Biden saving us all from the American Hitler aka Trump. They also chide all progressives to give up on their beliefs and still blame Jill Stein for Hillary "Its My Turn" Clinton's loss in 2016.

    South Korea Fines BNP, HSBC $20 Million for Naked Short Selling

    Pretty stupid. Is there some sort of crisis in Korea? 8 month short selling ban? Even the US limited the 2008 short selling ban to financials and it was only a few weeks. [Ironically the problems the financials had was due to their own making where they pushed for mark-to-market accounting for...

    Asian retail traders help drive 24-hour market for US stocks

    I believe in the 19th century when the NYSE first started it was open 6 days a week with 8 hour trading days. I think there was a lunch break in the middle similar to Japan. I think that article could use some paragraph breaks. Reminds me of old forums I used to read where people kept writing...

    The Dominant Dollar Faces a Backlash in the Oil Market

    The CCP will never let its currency float like the US, UK or EU. It wants tight controls over everything since that is all dictators understand. Currency controls will always be a part of the CCP economic plan.

    S&P Equal Weight Index Severely Underperforms In 2023

    It seems that newer technologies draw value from scale so I have a feeling small companies will have a very difficult time doing better than these behemoths with massive scale. That in turn means even more profits & greater margins. What was the last small tech company to overtake large...

    Trading is gambling- Only if you make it gambling

    Yeah that was him. It was 2011 not 2008.

    Trading is gambling- Only if you make it gambling

    I mean the r/WSB crowd and its YOLO 0DTE crowd loading up on daily SPY calls is surely gambling.

    Trading is gambling- Only if you make it gambling

    I remember reading about a WSOP finalist who was an options trader turned Poker pro. I forget his name, it was back during the GFC in the 2008 tournament.

    Forever Bull Market

    I noticed ES/SPY recovered from its selloff but the VIX is still elevated. I bet that's the next leg higher when VIX drops another 5-6% back to below 12.

    ARKK, continually trying to stay afloat

    ARKK is still one of the best mid cap growth funds out there. It completely blows away the MDY. ARKF actually blew away ARKK mainly because of the move since November 1 which was +53% in 8 weeks. I still think the best strategy is still to buy SOXL+FNGU. SOXL +232.6% YTD FNGU +451.7% YTD TARK...

    Another Season, More Dak Prescott Hype

    Well at least they didn't get blown out by Miami. I don't think the Cowboys will ever win as long their clueless owner is still alive. He is the Steinbrenner of the NFL.

    Biden’s job approval takes nosedive

    Its amazing Trump was even able to win in 2016 given those polls all said Hillary should win (except for the Fox News poll, obviously). I remember watching MSNBC & CNN election night and they were flabbergasted especially Van Jones.
