NVIDIA WON’T CRASH MARKETS TOO MUCH BECAUSE TRADERS HAVE A BURNING HOUSE STILL STANDING WHERE THEY CAN HIDE
I bet very few noticed this: while NVIDIA and fellow bubbly tech stocks are having quite a hard time, banks, especially large ones, are actually showing remarkable strength in the 3rd quarter of 2024. Shocking, isn’t it? Back in February when I wrote “WE HAVE NO ALTERNATIVE BUT TO RIDE…

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…
