We identified a 6M sweep in $MSTR 131 puts for June yesterday and many team members took them as a hedge. A dbl and counting.

[The Power Trading Room @PowerTradingRm]

We spotted 5M in $MRVL max strike 320 weeklies at the open. We almost there after hours.

TLDR of Rubner Citadel Roadshow Insights:
• Rally fundamentally justified: No longer debated — driven by strong Q1 earnings (S&P +25.5% YoY, tech +50% YoY) + robust AI/hyperscaler capex trends.
• Positioning & flows dominant: Institutions still feel underinvested and are chasing performance; CTA very long, vol-control increasing, corporate buybacks at $865B YTD (accelerating toward $1.5T annualized), retail at records (especially in semis/AI).
• Extreme narrow leadership: 10 stocks drove 67% of the 19% S&P rally since March 30; only 28% of S&P constituents outperforming (1st percentile); semis now ~18% of a hypothetical $1 S&P ETF allocation (record high), Mag7 ~37% (near-record).
• Market structure theme: “Spot Up, Vol Up” dynamics in AI/MegaCap Tech/semis (retail/options activity setting prices); skew flattened, downside protection cheap.
• Forward view: Nervous bullishness — pain trade is still “higher, then lower” on improving geopolitics/lower vol/mega-cap leadership, but fragility increasing. Debate intensifying on broadening/rotation to laggards (cyclicals, small caps, value) if rates/geopolitics cooperate.

OPENAI PREPARING TO FILE FOR IPO VERY SOON, SOURCES SAY: WSJ

[Investment Wisdom @InvestingCanons]

Stanley Druckenmiller:

“Life goes in streaks. And like a hitter in baseball, sometimes a money manager is seeing the ball and sometimes they're not.”

When investors are down, they tend to get aggressive to win it back. Druckenmiller: “One of my most important jobs as a money manager was to understand whether I was hot or cold...”

“In my opinion, when you're cold, you should be trying for bunts.”

[Goshawk Trades @GoshawkTrades]

Ken Griffin on the single factor he looks for when hiring at Citadel:

"show me an athlete who did well academically."

"an athlete because they know what it takes to win and they've had to experience loss."

talent is everywhere. what's rare is someone who knows how to lose, recover, and still perform at a high level.

same thing separates profitable traders from everyone else.
