    US Household Debt Surpasses $16 Trillion

    Both yes and no. Ultimately, the US can just pay the debts of its households in a number of creative ways should an emergency necessitate that. However, that in turn is a credibility issue. It's certainly not an enviable situation.

    She's hilariously far off the rails.

    US military seeks new adversaries: aliens! :-)

    LOL where to start, there are too many examples to count. The last last part of this interview is very good explaining what is happening to you:

    Matt Gaetz being investigated over sexual relationship with a 17 year old girl

    So this apparently seems pretty complex to get right in the US: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_consent#/media/File:Age_of_Consent_-_Global.svg

    Eagle eyes are on Taiwan, but is China distracting us from a ‘second Pearl Harbour’?

    I think he quits the storytelling too early. This kind of attack would even worse than Pearl Harbour in total and necessitate a harsher response (unlike a limited Taiwan war). Would US really accept this without escalating to at least taking out some equivalent targets dear to the Chinese (see...

    Dems Set To Push Bill To Ban Congress From Trading Stock

    While I agree that the congressional insider trading should be banned, there is a way this change could be detrimental to US traders: A politician who personally trades will more likely be sympathetic to the legal and political issues traders face. See e.g. an insane law that was made in...

    Why Germany’s business model is busted

    Might append my own thread: https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/deimperalization-of-russia.368661/ Russia, aside from being a dysfunctional authoritarian cleptocracy, is choke full of different peoples that consider the central Moscow region an oppressor that only causes them misery. It is...

    I am up 19.77% YTD and still don't know what my edge is!

    Start a journal, I don't see how decontexualized trades are pertinent to this thread. I would love to be able to follow what you do in a structured way rather than as random shouts in wrong topics.

    Morning Wood: ARK Is Dumping Its Coinbase

    She's dodging the legal risk of Coinbase. There are plenty of other beaten up tech stocks to reallocate to at present, so whereas she's certainly selling low she will also be buying low. The sell high part is something she "could've/should've" been doing late last year.

    Does the S & P always go up, over the long term ?

    OP: In the simplified sense, sure. However, it's equally sure the end of human civilization will come at some point. However, that is a very rare event (frequency = 1 by definition) so it makes little sense to bet on it. A more actual risk besides nuclear war is the US turning into a fascist...

    Giant banks going to Gold

    Just IMHO; Gold has been a more shitty buy as of late than in the previous century because a fair portion of the speculators that could have been enthusiastic about it have gone to crypto. Then you still have some convinced believers who are always long gold and trying to uptalk it. Meanwhile...

    Deimperalization of Russia

    *Deimperialization* spellchecker didn't catch that one. I admit I mostly clicked this for the sexy looking map: https://euromaidanpress.com/2022/07/25/national-minorities-of-russian-federation-discuss-its-deimperialization-in-prague/ 2022/07/25 - 01:36 • INTERNATIONAL The second forum of...

    US military seeks new adversaries: aliens! :-)

    RT is definitely trying to build up credibility so that they can lie to you in a more important article (e.g. about the Ukraine war).

    US military seeks new adversaries: aliens! :-)

    (Ignoring the fact that RT is reposting this with whatever intent.) There has been decent coverage in Swedish media around this. Basically, it's better to find out what is going on in your airspace than to ignore it, as there are frequent pilot observations of unknown entities - some even...

    Algo traders: What risk management are you using to manage crisis like Flash Crash

    While I can't call myself algo trader: Size properly. If you don't hedge, you need smaller size to eat the tails. It's of course nice if you do manage to get out in time, but you can't count on it.

    And if that valuation was lower than what they paid, then they can claim a nice loss on the purchase.
