As as soon as Hindenburg Research’s (a famous short-selling hedge fund) piece “Super Micro: Fresh Evidence Of Accounting Manipulation, Sibling Self-Dealing And Sanctions Evasion At This AI High Flyer” was published I started to be flooded with notifications about it and when I picked up my phone, I have to…
HOW COULD JAPAN RECOVER SO FAST FROM THE WORST CRASH SINCE 1987? THANKS TO ITS GPIF “ANGEL”
No person can pretend to know everything; it is simply not humanly possible. If anyone claims to do so, more often than not, they actually know little in reality. Personally, I use an investigative approach in everything I do, most of all to fill the gaps in my ignorance. This…
IF JPY CARRY TRADE TROUBLES SPOIL THE UPCOMING NVIDIA PARTY, GET READY FOR A SPIKE IN VOLATILITY

UBS’ GAMES OF SMOKE AND MIRRORS TO HIDE ITS GIANT PROBLEMS
UBS reported its Q2-24 earnings, and after a brief moment of selling pressure at the open, the stock started soaring, ending the day up more than 5%. Yes, on the surface, UBS reported a net profit more than double what Wall Street analysts expected, and that was enough to feed…
