I was in Austin last week for Amaris’ therapy (which went very well…by the way, you should see her play the piano, and she can’t help but kick in delight when I help along with some chords beneath her — pic below). Every gas station on the road from central NM to east Texas was […]

Latest Positions: A No BS Market PLUS Semis And Other Names
This remains the “No BS Market” as any whiff of bullsh*t gets sold. Promises of future growth are starting to be considered folly. That’s part of the process of bottoming.
