Tough Year for Beta. 60/40 and SPY had large drawdowns along the way and only 8% YTD return. but my balanced beta has been sideways for a while (Green line.)
Closed out my short for the weekend. This rant and the hour roundtable in comments is my current market view. Very bearish. That said when you make half your year in two days it's time to take the weekend off. Ammo to absolutely slam a rally.

$NVDA has a $235BN authorized buyback program and IS buying back stock and "reloading". Why would they "support" the stock when they are a buyer instead of buying cheaper. Isn't screwing the sellers GOOD for the shareholders vs rewarding the sellers with an elevated price.

Uncanny. Jimmy calling the low on NQ overnight. 400 points bounce.
You have to buy then when they hate them if you want to sell em when they love them
Some guy on @CNBCFastMoney wants the government to bail out the AI companies. This selloff isn't over.
I can’t shake the feeling that selling your high-beta tech stocks already down 40-70%, to buy low/no growth consumer names at 30-100x earnings…might not be so smart, either.

It would be great if we at least visit one of the two $JHEQX strikes over the next two months. If not people are gonna get frustrated AF
