Arrived home to find the final batch of Bondistans arrived, ready for me to sign and ship out to a special few. Truly thankful for all the support everyone has given.
At nearly 1,000 copies ordered, which maybe isn't a lot to some, it is worth more than its weight in gold (marked at Jan 28th 2026). No matter what happens from here, this will always be one of my proudest achievements. Thank you to each and every one of you that walked the path with me to realising this.
If you haven't bought it yet, please consider doing so to offset my trading losses in rates. If you have, please consider doing so again to offset my trading loses in fx. 🙏
@blondesnmoney For sure! Went from up 5% for the year to flat in 2 days and then voila up 3.5%. And yes feel like I won despite being an idiot and getting lucky
@KrisAbdelmessih The American Folk Blues Festival videos (bunch on YouTube). I cut my teeth on the CDs in my teens. There’s a BBC doc that’s been mentioned too Blues America. Must listens Albert, Freddie, and BB King ; Son House, JL Hooker, JB Lenoir, Sister Rosetta Tharp (is a fun one)
@Dcpcooks Long Z6 here, only push back is this is another loosening of financial conditions that then gets reignited 4-6 months down the road. If it was the status quo that would be my thought but there’s so much uncertainty seems like it will be deeper. Deregulation feels very laggy
When we Americans talk about Canada it would be only right and correct to note that we have fought and died with them in a couple of World Wars and their valor is every bit as legendary as our own. Good luck finding a better friend.
Never gotten half as many likes on a tweet.
Jealous, tbh.
Also...have a question
The call is like .95d
They were $10 ITM all am with huge volume trading.
Is it possible that market makers might already own shares that would be, I don't know, delivered, upon assignment?
Here ya go @BatonRougeBorn
Your word is your bond
Put a number on it
Don’t catch falling knives
Long and wrong
Losers add to losers
Hunting stops
Economists have predicted 14 of the last 3 recessions
Never short a quiet market
If you think your Strat is perfect you haven’t been using it long enough
Opening range trade works
This time is different
Every once in a while, the market does something so stupid it takes your breath away
Nothing in the markets truly surprise me anymore
You not a good trader until you add to winners
If your gonna use stops use stop mkt orders not limit
His wife’s so rich even he can’t loose it all
A fool and his money
How to make a million trading, start it five
Your only as good as your last trade
Markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent
The guy you just sold to thinks he’s right also
Emotions are your worst enemy
Fear kills
The reason why I bring up the neutral rate is because I think the market is actively debating it without realizing it or explicitly saying so.
Much of the consternation around Fed pricing right now is how many cuts is appropriate this year, but that implies that cuts themselves are appropriate.
