Futures trading is not for the faint of heart. ♥️ that you’re able to do this and be successful.
Futures definitely seems like a game of Russian Roulette at this stage of the game.
I know some people that do very well with it. I don’t have the balls to do it…and I’m ok with that.
Same here
Don’t trade futures without using a sim account for at least a year (ideally during a bear market, trading daily). I’m somewhat lucky. I started a commodities fund in college and turned it into a hedge fund career in NYC for 12 years. I wouldn’t trade futures without some experience!..
How big was that gold bar you bought last night?
Haha I bought an ounce..

Imagine thinking a recession would be good.
Fund managers worry about Trump’s mental state amid tariff debacle
Some fund managers concerned ‘that the White House is not acting rationally, but rather on ideology. And some even fear that this may not even be ideology’
Fund managers quietly fear Trump doesn’t have a tariff plan and that he ‘might be insane’
Some fund managers concerned ‘that the White House is not acting rationally, but rather on ideology. And some even fear that this may not even be ideology’
As President Donald Trump’s back-and-forth on trade policies creates chaos in the financial markets, some fund managers are questioning the rationality of his decisions.
“In the last few days, we have had many conversations with macro fund managers,” Tom Lee, the head of research at the financial analysis firm FSInsights, wrote on Wednesday morning, before Trump backed down from most of his tariffs on U.S. trading partners.
“And their concern is that the White House is not acting rationally, but rather on ideology. And some even fear that this may not even be ideology,” he added. “A few have quietly wondered if the President might be insane.”
Lee’s comments were highlighted by The New Republic.
He blamed Trump for the economic consequences, adding that “multiple officials have stated they do not want nor expect a recession. And there are enough economy-savvy advisors that they are aware of this. Moreover, the two-to-three percent fiscal stimulus needed to reverse a recession would negate any promised cuts to government spending.”
The rationalizations for this shitshow have been.... impressive.
Recessions are like that stuff you drink before a colonoscopy… and America is way past their checkup. Recessions expose fraud and usually restore purchasing power to the working man.
Pro tip - don’t bury your gold when drunk or high
