No auto tune needed … just wow.

"Ramble On" is 56 years old and Robert Plant just walked onto The Late Show and made it sound like he wrote it this morning.

Never seen a whole orchestra smiling and enjoying the music being played.

This is what Canada needs!

A government that stops trying to run everything out of Ottawa and control your life.

Instead: Let people live their lives and buy and sell things freely.

A government that does a few things well, instead of too many things poorly.

This is version of “Jeremy” is SO fucking cool I had to share it.

It’s thoroughly acoustic but it’s kind of catchier than the original and I love the mellowed, slightly sinister vibe this version brings.

It feels like what No Code era “Jeremy” might be like.

@ZssBecker Thank dearly for my daily humor. It helps get me through!

"Canada lives because of the United States. Remember that, Mark, the next time you make your statements."

Carney failed to negotiate a deal with Trump.

And now it’s looking like he will fail to renegotiate CUSMA.

Greenland is first.
And now Canada might be second.

The Liberals ruptured our position in the world with a decade of failures.

Now we are in a weak position.

One of the toughest things about being a father…

[Dov Kleiman @NFL_DovKleiman]

Heartbreaking: Tom Brady was in tears emotionally talking about how he is not as good a father as his dad was.

"I know I'm not as good a dad to my kids as my dad was to me."

Greatness comes at the ultimate price 😔💔

[Trump Girl @TrumpGirlLove]

This is absolutely heartbreakingly beautiful. Charlie Kirk’s view on women… my God. He was such an incredible man-so rare, so strong, so good. Boy, do I miss him. 😔💔🙏🕊️🇺🇸❤️

FORMER FINANCE PROFESSOR TAD SMITH:

"After 25 years teaching finance, I realized at 58, if the money printer grows 8-10% annually and the S&P 500 returns ~9%, it’s just treading water.

True wealth comes from outpacing the printer. That’s the #Bitcoin journey." 👏

I know no one wants to hear bullish ideas and everyone is scared and wants to fling poo at each other... but the Road to Valhalla is getting very close.

If global liquidity is the single most dominant macro factor then we MUST focus on that.

REMEMBER - THE ONLY GAME IN TOWN IS ROLLING $10TRN IN DEBT. EVERYTHING ELSE IS A SIDESHOW. THIS IS THE GAME OF THE NEXT 12 MONTHS.

Currently the gov shutdown has forced a sharp tightening of liquidity as the TGA builds up with no where to spend it.

This is not offset by the ability to drain the Reverse Repo (it is drained). And QT drains it further.

This is hitting markets and in particular crypto which is the most liquidity driven. TradiFi asset managers have had one of their worst years of performance vs benchmark and are now having to chase markets and that is allowing tech to be more stable than crypto. 401K flows help too. If this liquidity drain keeps going longer, stocks will get hit hard too.

However...

As soon as the gov shutdown ends, the Treasury begins spending $250bn to $350bn in a couple of months. QT ends and the balance sheet technically expands.

The Dollar will likely begin to weaken again as liquidity begins to flow. Tariff negiotiations will have largely been completed, removing uncertainty

Ongoing bill issuance increases, adding more liquidity via bank balance sheets and money market funds (and stable coins).

Ongoing rate cuts (we will have economic weakness from the shutdown that will add to the evidence that rates need to come lower but no, there is no recession)..

SLR changes free up more of the banks balance sheets allowing for credit expansion.

The CLARITY ACT will get passed, giving the crypto regs so deserately needed for large scale adoption by banks, asset managers and businesses overall.

The Big Beautiful Bill then kicks in to goose the economy into the midterms. The entire system is now being geared toward a strong economy and strong market in 2026 for these elections.

China will continue to expand its balance sheet. Japan will work to strenghten the Yen, and also fiscally stimulate.

The ISM will rise as rates fall and tarrif uncertainty drops away.

You just need to get through the Window of Pain and The Liquidity Flood lies ahead.

Always remember the Dont Fuck This Up rules...and wait out the volatility. Drawdowns like this are common place in bull markets and their job is to test your faith.

BTFD if you can.

td:dr - When this number goes up, all number go up.

[CryptosRus @CryptosR_Us]

WHEN THE CEO OF THE WORLD'S LARGEST ASSET MANAGER SPEAKS - THE WORLD LISTENS.

BlackRock's Larry Fink just confirmed what crypto investors have long understood:
💥 If you want to protect your wealth and hedge against inflation - you buy Bitcoin and crypto.

"Crypto assets or gold are assets of FEAR... You own these assets because you're frightened of the debasement of your assets."

What was once dismissed as speculation is now recognized as sound money - a safeguard in an age of monetary debasement.

You get what you are, not what you want

Fix yourself first

The right people show up after that
