I never add to currencies or commodities. Instead I find ways to hedge to hold the position longer.

I'm curious, how much did all that cost roughly?

Did you really buy all these courses?

In the equity world, where there are thousands of stocks, I prefer to scale by adding fresh new positions vs adding to existing ones. I find that a fresh new signal has more potential then adding to an existing signal that is slowly fading in strength. This means that over time, as the market...

Don't you wish you had the balls to short it at 73.50? I bet your wife does. :)

I will win the bet and you know it. Take it or leave it.

OK, the bet has an expiration date of 7/4/2017! It goes off the books then. So 6 weeks...what do you say Zany?

I'm not betting on random noise. The bet is 85/60....stocks fall faster then they rise. Take it or leave it. You think this stock is going to zero. Hell 60 is where we were only a month ago. What are you afraid of? :)

Dude, that is within the daily range of volatility. Why would you bet on such a small move. Let's make it more interesting. I say it will touch 85 before 60.

You tell me this now? :)

A couple of things. First, I did give a cause...monetary policy. Second, these people publishing research all have PhDs. They all understand correlation and probably took more math courses then everyone in your family combined. I actually went to grad school and have a Masters in Economics...

It's not taxes. The rich don't pay taxes because for the most part, their wealth is not derived from wages but assets and asset growth. The monetary policies of the last several decades have inflated assets. The easy credit regime. Steve Jobs was worth billions at the time of his death...

I'm hearing 1.30 targets on the Euro. Seems a little rich but the bid is real for sure.

Broke again....lol.

This will be my last comment about this and then I'll leave him alone. The only thing that matters to me is your sharpe. Not what you "make", but the variance you have to put up with to make that amount. He took 3 trades over 15 days and netted about 2.65. But the variance he had to tolerate...

Two percent a week compounded is 180% a year, not 100%. Apparently finding intelligent life is even harder on this forum.

It seems these pops only make it fall faster. Probably from all the bus people that pile in after these one day shocks. Time will tell...

With all due respect, all these studies are policy influence papers. They don't write these for their health. Yes, we are in agreement, the middle class is fucked, I never stated otherwise. I just believe we have the facts as to how that happened. And yes, we are in agreement that no policy...

And even more empirical evidence... https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2017/05/these-two-swedish-economists-foresaw-a-globalization-backlash-in-the-1930s?utm_content=buffer51324&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=buffer

Here is the empirical proof you are wrong. Read it, don't read it, I don't really care at this point. http://www.epi.org/publication/bp196/ Here is a quick summary: The key findings indicate: • In 2006, the impact of trade flows increased the inequality of earnings by roughly 7%, with the...
