Didn't mean to push you down.. Just saying, volatility is low since years and nowhere close to 2001/2002. If anything we can assume volatility will increase again over the years but I guess it's really unpredictable. I hope you don't give up, I always felt you love trading just by seeing...

Funny article. We outsourced some IT work (non finance related) a while ago to different countries.. Argentina, Phillipines, India. Waste of time and money, will never do it again. Quality of work (and understanding of the objective at hand!) was generally poor, I found it hard to explain tasks...

Instead of good old disagreeing, it appears to be more fashionable now to call each other "fvcking moron", "idiot", "baby", "dipsh1t" in every reply. Some reading for the 2% who are interested in the actual topic: "How Much Do Interest Rates Affect the Fair Value of Stocks?"...

Hyped up? Vertical? We're up now like 6% YTD? Like 20% YoY? 10% annualized over the last four years? Not sure if this qualifies for vertical but it's nothing unusual when looking at historical patterns of the markets. Regarding "most hyped": Not sure what others in here think, my personal...

Volatility? What volatility... I hope we will get some real vola like we used to... They say it's mean reverting but I stopped buying into that.
