@ThierryBorgeat Its algo trading and people holding to their positions like maniacs. "Always be closing " not in the dictionary for most. Huge role of the obligatory retirement accounts / funds.
@Jakub_moscicki Najwięcej zarabia się na zmienności. Dość juz rosło, teraz puszcza na dol. Zapakowani po uszy obywatele poprosza o rozwiązanie. Od upadku Lejmana nie ma juz kapitalizmu.
Become a Man with purpose. Fill days with meaningful action. Achieve complete focus and alignment with values. Stay at peace within the inner point of origin.
The most brilliant life hack is very simple:
Decide what matters and ignore everything else.
Then, execute on that daily until reality catches up with your vision.
@semenarchive Good motivation in your words but I wonder: why body removes sperm during sleep? Also I heard that long storage damages sperm cells. Seems that men must naturally deplete, but definetly not by hands.
The only way to build a new earth community, or even larger, society, is to come together and build from a place deeper than our egos.
Competition (a mechanism of the ego) is incompatible with a truly conscious community or society.
The way to harmony is through the heart.
@MichaelAArouet There is truth that people are lazy. There is truth that big companies don't pay taxes. Rich have tax frameworks, build market bubbles leaving 50% out of it. FTEs cannot escape with their wages, nor build wealth that fast without scale.
This $200,000,000 bank is backed by Parmesan Cheese and is lending people money for cheese
In Northern Italy, Credito Emiliano treats cheese like gold
The bank currently holds 430,000 wheels of Parmesan worth about $200,000,000
Real Parmesan takes two to three years to get ready
This leaves farmers with millions of dollars in premature products they can’t sell, while still needing to pay for cows, bills, and workers
By using young cheese as security for a loan, farmers get cash immediately
The bank provides up to 80% of the value upfront so these businesses stay running
While the loan is active, the cheese stays in high tech vaults where experts look after it
If a farmer can't pay, the bank simply sells the aged cheese for a profit
Harnessing forces of nature is a sign of high civilisation. Strengthening society will divert resources from game of financial derivatives to real creative work towards realisation of such projects.
I would pay taxes for such a noble cause. Tax should be named after the solution it aims to solve and should be easily trackable how the money was spent. You could pick and choose taxes to reach some arbitrary amount. Blockchain baby!
Every school should have a greenhouse, a native plant garden, and fruit trees. Memorizing dates is cool and all, but kids should also learn to grow food, watch pollinators at work, understand how soil actually works, and grow up knowing that they can actively help the environment.
FINANCIAL GRAVITY:
If we divide the S&P 500 by the fed’s balance sheet, the line is basically flat since 2008.
The correlation coefficient between central bank quantitative easing and the price of stock indexes is nearly 1.
The money printed by the Fed, because of the structure of the Open Market Operations, is plugged directly into the Treasury markets, and from there, flows into equities and derivatives.
This has served to primarily enrich the asset owners, financial institutions, and wealthy elites who own the majority of the stock market anyways.
The entire rally has been an illusion, financed by the Fed and maintained through QE.
this chart goes back to 1972 and has never printed this number
The 3-week realized vol of the momentum factor is now 4x the vol of the S&P 500. Not 1997, not 2000, not 2008, not the 2021 unwind. Never.
Translation: the index is quiet while the stocks inside it swing like it's a crisis. Winners get dumped, losers get squeezed, and the rotation eats momentum traders alive.
When maximum churn meets minimum index movement, someone is handing over a lot of shares. Distribution rarely announces itself louder than this.
In 1962, Brendon Grimshaw purchased Moyenne Island in the Seychelles for roughly $11,000. At the time, the small island was completely barren and uninhabited.
Over the following decades, Grimshaw dedicated his life to restoring its ecosystem. He personally planted more than 16,000 trees, created walking trails, and reintroduced endangered species — most notably giant Aldabra tortoises — transforming the once-desolate island into a lush, thriving nature sanctuary.
Despite numerous offers from wealthy developers eager to turn the island into a luxury resort, Grimshaw consistently refused. He famously rejected a $50 million bid, determined to keep Moyenne Island as a protected natural haven open for people to enjoy rather than a private commercial venture.
In 2009, his vision was permanently secured when Moyenne Island was incorporated into the Sainte Anne Marine National Park, becoming the smallest national park in the world.
Grimshaw lived on the island until his death in 2012, leaving behind a remarkable legacy of conservation and environmental stewardship that continues to protect this unique paradise for future generations.
🔴THIS IS AN ABSOLUTELY SCARY STATISTIC:
Consensus estimates for S&P 500 earnings over the next 12 months hit $365 per share, nearly double the cyclically adjusted figure (past 10-year earnings adjusted for inflation) of $188, according to Bloomberg.
As a result, forward 1-year earnings now exceed cyclically adjusted earnings by more than 90%, the widest gap on record.
By comparison, this metric peaked at ~65% during the 2000 Dot-Com Bubble.
In other words, the gap between what Wall Street expects companies to earn next year and what they have earned on average over the past decade has never been wider.
At the same time, trailing 1-year earnings now exceed cyclically adjusted earnings by more than 60%, versus an average gap of just 11% since 1881.
Investors are pricing in an earnings boom unlike anything seen in modern market history at already record valuations.
