What a week to be back. That open this morning was terribly ugly but it was over within the first fifteen minutes or so. I did a little nibbling in the hedge fund premarket and near the open, but I had no idea the bottom (at least the short-term bottom for now) would be put […]
Invest Like Rick Rubin Does Music, Dennis Rodman Hoops, A Kite Flies
I’m recharged and reset after a week of not writing and not analyzing though my brain was still in Deep Thought mode. I even found the time to watch the Beastie Boy documentary on Apple TV+, which led me to run down the Rick Ruben rabbit hole. Rick Ruben was a music producer behind many […]

Financial Conditions Warning Signs Vs The SPAC Crash Opportunities
It seems like all year I’ve been warning about valuations being out of whack with reality, especially in small cap techs, which obviously includes most SPACs.

Market Outlook: Beware Of Levered Up Hedge Funds
In the thirty years that I’ve been factoring the macroeconomic and geopolitical trends of the US and world into my analysis of what to buy and sell and when to do it, this is probably the cloudiest outlook I’ve ever had for the economy. I’m shocked at how binary the two most likely outcomes are […]
