Voted Wall Street Catnician of the Year 1998. All downhill from there. Dad/ Dork/CMT. Often wrong. Always in doubt.

@elonmusk "Richest man in world sues other people for trying to be rich" sounds like a losing case. Just sayin'.

Regarding the OpenAI case, the judge & jury never actually ruled on the merits of the case, just on a calendar technicality. There is no question to anyone following the case in detail that Altman & Brockman did in fact enrich themselves by stealing a charity. The only question is WHEN they did it! I will be filing an appeal with the Ninth Circuit, because creating a precedent to loot charities is incredibly destructive to charitable giving in America. OpenAI was founded to benefit all of humanity.

@realfredfrancis @highbrow_nobrow Why don’t you raise the minimum wage to $150 an hour then we can all pay 80 bucks for a trip to McDonald’s Ridiculous? No it’s not. Why do you think the last few minimum wage raises did not work because the price of everything goes up with your wage Get it Einstein?

Given that Red Delicious are the worst apples, have you ever wondered why they’re in every school cafeteria? It’s because there’s a list of "approved" apple varieties allowed in schools, and it hasn’t changed since Kmart sold firearms.

$SPX Weekend Recap The vertical breakout continues its upward trajectory, printing another green weekly candle. However, a prominent upper wick suggests late-week profit-taking as the index pulled back from its intraday highs above 7500, a widely expected measured-move target. The broader multi-month uptrend remains firmly intact, though short-term momentum is cooling off from overextended levels. ​Major structural and psychological support sits down at the 7000-ish zone. That’s the 10-week, the round number, and a very long way down, 400-ish points of air below… Thanks for reading. 🙏🙏👊🍻

The Saturday Morning Perfect Hindsight Report Two hundred years ago, when "Wall Street" was nothing more than a log cabin built from the timber of the very buttonwood tree under which it had previously been founded, a smart and rich trader figured out that not much happened over the summer months. More importantly, he wanted to get to his farm — on land we now call Chelsea — as soon as humanly possible. So he coined the immortal expression: Sell in May and go away. What he and subsequent generations of traders forgot to mention was: When in May? Beginning? Middle? End? The whole month? Tuesdays only? This trader, in his ancestral wisdom, would probably tell you the following: $SPX could very well reach its measured-move target at 7500-ish sooner rather than later. Waiting for price to get closer to that level before lightening up makes sense. On the other hand, should 7000-ish support give out — and remember, that's prior resistance now flipped to support — you'll wish you had sold some into strength. Monthly chart says trend intact, shorter average rising, longer average a distant memory. Weekly chart says the recent dip to 6400-ish was bought with conviction, price is back above the 50-week, and the Bull still has room to run. So maybe the updated version is not: Sell in May and go away. Maybe it is: Let $SPX approach 7500-ish, sell some into strength, and then go away with peace of mind. Thanks for reading. 🙏🏻🙏🏻👊🍻

If people want to short this, that's your choice. Please do your HW and remember dampedspring blocked me bc I'm an annoying tenacious asshole who asks too many questions. If someone can't handle that, then they can't handle the smart fuckers that survived all these booms & busts.

Meta cuts 8,000 people on May 20. Eight days from now. Plus 6,000 open roles cancelled. Effective headcount reduction: 14,000. Engineers transferred into 'AI pods'. Under Chief AI Officer Alexandr Wang. Wang's October memo: 'By reducing the size of our team, fewer conversations will be required to make a decision, and each person will be more load-bearing.' A two-tier workforce. Elite AI researchers: protected. Paid hundreds of millions. Everyone else: expendable. Replaced by what the elite build. Own or be owned. The corporate version.

My father-in-law is an old bear market wizard. We were looking at some recession charts together and I asked him what it would take to create a bear market like that today. I will never forget his answer… "We can’t, we don’t know how to do it."

@minenergybiz As a contrarian and a silver Bull, my fear is that it's bearish. The chart must bust out of that descending triangle on a weekly and monthly basis. Then I'll be more serene. 🙏👊🍻

@citrini The all time goated macro econ take goes to @paulkrugman, who (back in ‘98) said that the internet would have no greater economic impact than the fax machine. Nice work, Paul.
