This is a savvy legal move by Trump. May 1: War Powers letter formally ends hostilities, preserves force posture, asserts Article II constitutional authority. May 3: "Project Freedom" announced as a humanitarian operation, not military. Monday: US Navy escorts neutral commercial ships through Hormuz under freedom of navigation rights. If Iran fires on it: that is Iran starting a new conflict. Trump is responding defensively, not attacking. No new War Powers clock starts because the US did not initiate hostilities. Iran did.
Chris Rollins@ThePowerAudit

Trump just announced "Project Freedom" beginning Monday morning, Middle East time. We are nearing the climax. "If, in any way, this Humanitarian process is interfered with, that interference will, unfortunately, have to be dealt with forcefully." Parse this carefully. He is sending US warships to escort neutral commercial vessels out of the Strait of Hormuz. If Iran challenges the escort, he has his trigger. If Iran lets them pass, the blockade is broken and Iran is humiliated. 35 Tankers have taken off from Tel Aviv today. Saturdays total was 14. The evidence package for this move was built today by Iranian moves. UKMTO WARNING 050-26 (1130 UTC): IRGCN small craft attacked a northbound bulk carrier 11NM west of Sirik, Iran. Crew safe. UKMTO ADVISORY 051-26 (0900 UTC): Vessels at Ras Al Khaimah directed via VHF broadcast to vacate anchorage. Confirmed by multiple ship masters.

2 months ago, a buyer from Delhi came to our factory. He walked through the entire setup, criticized whatever he could, and spoke like he was going to do big business with us. He liked our product, asked for samples and full specs, and we shared everything without delay. We quoted INR 410 for 10,000 pieces, payment in cash. Then the calls started. Not with clear decisions, but with small complaints about things that did not really matter. While we responded properly and took in whatever feedback we could, we also made it clear what we could change and what we could not. Then came the haggling. He countered at INR 390. After some back and forth, he finally confirmed at INR 400. He said “done,” asked for the PI, we sent it, and then he went completely silent for a week. No calls, no messages. During that same time, all material costs went up. Then suddenly, he called again and said he was ready to confirm, but now he wanted only 3,000 pieces and also asked for a 4% cash discount (even though the quotation was already based on cash), as if he was doing us a favor. Work was slow and we had some stock, so after thinking it through, we agreed to a 1% discount and sent a revised PI. Once again, silence. After a few days, he said he was in China and claimed prices there were cheaper. I knew that was not true, so I simply wished him well and told him to buy from China. But he came back again, saying he still wanted to buy from us. This time, he asked for a full cost breakdown including plastic, electronics, labor, packing, and our profit. We work transparently, so we shared it. Then he said our profit was too high and demanded that we reduce it. We told him cost is a fact, profit is our principle, and flatly refused. He kept pushing. He asked for detailed molding costs like plastic rates, cycle time, burn loss, and labor. That was the point where it was no longer about business. It was about control. So instead of arguing, we calmly told him the goods were sold out. He got livid, started shouting, and said we had no right to sell the goods since he had already “confirmed the order.” I stayed calm, said sorry, and ended the conversation. Now, even if he comes back ready to pay more, I will not supply to him. I have seen how these deals end. They always bring stress, delays, and problems. Some business gives you money but takes away your peace. Over time, you learn it is better to do less business with the right people than chase more business with the wrong ones. I would rather have fewer orders, better sleep, and a clear mind than deal with this kind of harassment.

@renchikh @aleabitoreddit I remember it being a victim of misunderstanding due to similar name. Fair value price should be anything above $3. 🤞

If you don't know my style by now: I identify upcoming sectors (photonics, memory, drones), then go long on the entire supply chain. I'm not always right, though. $AVAV and the drone sectors were my biggest losses this year outside of $RDDT ( $OSS did end up 60%+ ). I still believe fundamentally companies like $AIRO, $LPTH and others are extremely solid long term. ( $AIRO is still up ~15%, but lost majority of it's 70%+ gains, Draganfly dropped way more) And there's very unrealistic expectations from looking at $SNDK supercycles that everything can go up 100% a month. The main catalyst I've identified around that sector was the Venezuela invasion's usage of hidden drone + edge defense contracts/subcontractors. And I expected there to be follow-up funding into the sector. However, I mentioned I de-risked around the Greenland deal (majority of defense contractors crashed) but kept smaller concentration in stuff like $AVAV. SCAR program loss to others like $AVAV was even a bigger surprise and I lost even more. Unfortunately, the War in Iran focused around larger defense contractors like L3 Harris, $NOC and private companies like Anduril, and some energy directed suppliers like $LASR. So there weren't many tailwind recoveries for drone companies. That being said, I do know how to cut losses. But I still get a lot of crap saying oh look at "X stock they've liked earlier in the year". I'm very transparent when it comes to these things: A certain executive in the $IREN community are known to delete all their posts after their followers lose 90% on $BKKT or $ASST post-dilution. Majority of my stocks I identify are extremely solid fundamentally so they either hold their level since my original thesis. And I post risk-levels / conviction-levels with them too (risky ones obviously have more downside). I have skin in the game compared to others that just post hot takes. So if my thesis is wrong, I lose money personally (there's ton of more fills like this, just endless losses on $AVAV). But I leave everything up so you can see how things play out.

@bennybigbull Nope, sold for solid 6 figure loss on $AVAV and rotated to photonics.

Absolutely worth it 👇
Patrick OShaughnessy@patrick_oshag

My guest today is Paul Tudor Jones (@ptj_official), one of the greatest macro traders of all time. He correctly predicted the 1987 stock market crash and shorted the Japanese bubble in 1990. For over 40 years, his flagship fund has had a negative correlation to the S&P 500. 100% of his returns are alpha. He says today's market has so many similarities to 2000, "the easiest bear market I've ever seen in my whole life." He makes the case for going long dollar-yen, why Bitcoin beats gold as an inflation hedge, and why he was wrong about Warren Buffett. But what I'll remember most from this conversation is Paul's zest for life. He's 71 and still wakes at 2:30 every morning to trade the London open. He works out for two hours a day. He walks with his wife every evening. He travels the country chasing peak spring and peak fall. He's so excited about the songs picked for his funeral that he wishes he could be there to hear them. Paul has lived five lifetimes in one. He's one of the most entertaining and interesting people I've met, and the conversation will leave you searching to be as passionate about what you do as he is about what he does. Enjoy!
