Wondering what the catch is with this particular strategy of Meb Faber's (specifically the 60% Put Write and 40% tail risk strategy in which backtests resulted in a Max Drawdown of 8.30% and CAGR of 7.30%) Wondering how many minutes each month this 60/40 strategywould require to implement...

Long stock or long an index is great over the long haul, but only if you don't mind drawdowns that can exceed 50%.

Making bearish predictions is a business, and if she just said something simple like: “ dollar cost average into low cost total market index funds and put a percentage of your portfolio into bonds, (based on your age), rebalance quarterly, allocate a very small percentage (5%) into gold just in...

Everyone talks about how Darvas made over $2 million in the 1950s, but wasn’t the highest tax bracket 90% in the 1950s? How much of the money did he actually get to KEEP versus pay in taxes?

That would reduce my buying power by the amount of SHY purchased, and I'd get to pay TD a wonderful $6.95 commission to buy it. (Since it's an ETF) if I were to purchase one of the lame TD money market funds that are commission free, the "confirm order" pop up says that purchasing the lame...

TD still hasn't really budged on interest rates, even though the Fed raised rates several times this year. TD's interest for the entire year is virtually zero, while other brokers are almost at 1% on idle cash. Depending on the account size, this can be very substantial. The interest in...

Just received an email from Rob Hoffman about a "state of the art course" from another trader on how to potentially profit from investing in Bitcoin. What could ever go wrong? :)

I see this thread got replied to recently, even if by mistake. Is Robert any better at teaching others how to trade now than he was in 2011? He is still in the Educational Trading Room business.

Just received a notice that, Starting April 1st (hmmmm.......April Fool's Day....lol) I can no longer be subscribed to the Value Bundle and need to get the Snapshot Bundle....but not sure I want to bother. I notice there is a CME Level 1 subscription that says "For display only" What does...

Over the years, I've always been reporting UVXY options as ordinary capital gains and the brokers have been reporting it that way on their 1099s as well. However, this year, one broker (TD) issued a CORRECTED 1099 reclassifying all the 2016 UVXY options trades as 1256. The other 2 brokers...

3 Million? PT Barnum was right!

Yeah, he really acts like everyone else is an idiot, and that he and Karen were helping to enrich the general public by getting them involved in options trading. He believes that Karen's videos caused 1 billion dollars of the general public's money to get get involved in options trading...and...

Haha, this dude was onto them (tt and karen): http://johnsville.blogspot.com/2014/11/tastytrade-shill-with-skills.html

<<I certainly 'hope' (pun intended) that once she is sentenced by the SEC that the university is made aware of her activities >> Yeah, and I certainly 'hope' justice gets served! :)

Tom Sosnoff certainly is in awe of her here in this video. :D Will the University un-award her now? :wtf::)

Will this award get retracted? :D Tom Sosnoff certainly is in awe of her here:
