$S&P 500(.SPX)$ I have bought decent amount of VXX (VIX futures) to hedge for the potential bearish market. So far the trades been profitable but it can go either way. Futures depreciates so unless a big pop on volatility in coming weeks, most of these VXX will eventually goes to zero. In order to offset the depreciation, I've also sold covered calls on them at varying strike $ and expiry period in order to collect some premium to offset the cost. Can't share VXX trade feeds as they are not whitelist counters. Trade with caution. May the best trade wins.

$Trump Media & Technology(DJT)$$Evergreen Corporation(EVGR)$ The original SPAC deal was announced in late 2021 and the Truth Social site was launched in early 2022, yet the business hasn't really evolved much. Even worse, Donald Trump recently started posting on Twitter/X again after doing a Spaces interview live with Twitter/X owner Elon Musk. Trump posts on X can get 5+ million likes/hearts, while similar posts on Truth Social only get likes/hearts in the thousands. A similar post on Israeli hostages on September 1 got only 14.4K likes on Truth Social, while the X post had 8.3 million likes. The case for owning Trump Media has only gotten weaker, as the business hasn't taken steps to exp

As I write this, gold is trading just under $2,500 an ounce after surging past the psychologically important level for the first time ever in mid-August. For seasoned gold mining investors, this should be a moment of validation. After all, the yellow metal has long been seen as the ultimate hedge against economic uncertainty. And yet, despite the bull run, gold stocks — those companies that mine, process and sell the metal — are trading at historically low valuations relative to the market. This apparent disconnect offers contrarian investors an extraordinary opportunity. Rising Yields and the Gold Selloff Explained But first, why is this happening? The primary culprit for this disparity, I believe, lies in the impact of interest rates and

We are 15 days away from the first Fed rate cut of this cycle. Using that same time frame, I overlayed the following past rate cut cycles: 1981, 1990, 2000, and 2007. These four cutting cycles matched the same data that we're seeing currently (unemployment rate curving up, 10y2y inversion, etc). The sentiment from the Bulls is that rate cuts are suitable for the market. This is true...in the long run. History shows that the market pumps, on average, for 25 days after rate cuts, followed by an average of a 13-month sell-off. Could we get one last pump around the cuts? Will this time be different? Anyone who tells you what exactly will happen is lying. Be open-minded, look at all the data, and use your best judgment.
