There's quite a bit of pushback gaining steam about the efficacy of serious lockdowns. From a pure epidemiological standpoint, it seems like the optimum response might be to quarantine and isolate the elderly and those with compromised immune systems in lieu of locking down the entire...

I doubt that. Bezos is smart enough to know that he's succeeded in pissing off both political parties to the point that he's on the ragged edge of a Federal antitrust action.

July Crude trading the $39 handle, forward curve has just a slight tinge of Contango, and the June jobs report is going to be a ripper. As was May in case you are secluded without a market news feed.

See also the New Jersey and New York Nursing Home Governor-sponsored Senicide policy. I don't particularly like him, and I didn't vote for him, but Trump was basically right about China and the WHO.

This guy probably nailed it: Politico May 26, 2020 The general election scenario that Democrats are dreading "We are about to see the best economic data we’ve seen in the history of this country," says a top former economic adviser to Obama. In early April, Jason Furman, a top economist in...

Because if you were offered your old job back and you refused you are no longer eligible to collect unemployment benefits by law. In fact, many States will make you pay back your benefits already paid out if that's the case. :wtf: Many States were asking employers to report workers who were...

If the US Treasury yielded six percent you'd have a point. :D But you are ignoring the requisite need for institutions to find yield.

I got mentored by Ray Cahnman from Transmarket Group (they are all spread traders), and also the biggest independent spreader in the 30 year bond pit (who was also taught by Ray). Once I started trading on a commercial desk, a proprietary firm, and on a hedge fund desk - I realized that all of...

I've always been amazed about those of us who insist on arguing with the market. It beat me into submission long ago. If it wants to go up I get long.

Well that didn't take long. Path of pain for the shorts.:confused:

I wish you good fortune! Just as a note, clients of mine have had too many problems to count when it comes to spread trading and using discount brokers or introducing brokers. The most prominent problem is with correct risk assessment on exchange recognized spread positions and SPAN margin...

Sorry but that is quite impossible to start with $50K and make $23M in two weeks trading 30 Year Treasury Bond calendar spreads. Hell, you couldn’t do that with flat price. Oil, Electricity, Cocaine... wouldn’t matter. No Bueno.

This is really a somewhat futile to misleading exercise. I haven’t met anyone yet who could control the market. You take the very best risk vs reward entries that you can and you take clean efficient pre-defined losses. You target, let’s say, five points because that’s what your modeling says...
