I write books that require popcorn. And possibly a stiff drink. Including “How To Listen When Markets Speak.”

@LibertatemMaxi @RayDalio WTI is traded on the world market via NYMEX/CME. It’s not USA’s private supply. The price is market price. Customers of Hormuz are now buying more WTI. So whether US needs oil from Hormuz is just a political soundbite. The price goes up with demand and supply.

Trump needs a deal that looks like victory and functions like a ceasefire. Brokered through a third party. Built around the nuclear question, not regime change. Concluded before $100 oil destroys him at home.

Hard to imagine an extensive war with Iran. This is equivalent to using a sledgehammer to open a peanut.

@rdd147 Oh stop it …. This is a lie. Dubai will be fine. Their missile defense system is working just fine.

@009Sandman @shanaka86 They don’t have one. So the risk is quite low.

@tainsko @RayDalio Put that money safely away in QQQ and SPY. And never touch it. That’s USA big tech, and S&P500.
That’s the sensible move. It’s what Warren Buffett would advise.

@jaketapper This isn’t a winning argument, Jake. Everyone knew what he meant. Trump has a done a great thing for western security. Do you not see Russia as an Arctic threat?

It makes perfect sense. Denmark is out of their depth. Look at the map. This is all about national defense. The problem is, when you hate Trump, you hate all his ideas. But he’s damn good with foreign policy. And USA should be in charge of Greenland for the coming Arctic tensions.

@voltaba2u @SenSanders This didn’t age very well. But I appreciate your feedback.

The first lines of The Overstory by Richard Powers are still so brilliant.

“First there was nothing. Then there was everything. Then, in a park above a western city after dusk, the air is raining messages.”

@noatishby I agree … excellent post

@EdKrassen I’ve heard of misguided but you bring a new meaning to the term.

@Matthewtravis08 Clinton - Kosovo
Obama - Afghanistan
Biden - Ukraine

@Matthewtravis08 Are you out of your mind? This list is patently false.
