Proposing to ban TikTok is like proposing to ban cancer (if it were possible).

Blech.

Wait... If it were possible, you wouldn't want to ban cancer?

Yeah I just worded that poorly lol.

Paul Rudd’s “Boner Jams ‘03” mixed tape has officially reached its 20 year anniversary.

A per Harry Browne, many of us on this forum embrace the concept of uncertainty regarding the future, especially our ability to predict it.

So normally I don’t like to opine too much about the future. Nonetheless, my general sense is that this debacle isn’t over.

My value ETF (which has an incidental banking concentration) has tanked much more than my other equity ETFs, so I’ve rebalanced into it.

So yes!

I've rebalanced within the equity portion of my portfolio internally by buying up more value stocks (which have a high concentration in banks) in light of this news.

By greedy when others are fearful.. rebalancing does just that.

I’ve been meaning to catch dalio on an AMA for yeaaarrss now.

I’ve wanted to ask him point blank to what degree he attributes his thinking to Harry Browne. I’ll get ‘em one of these days.

This violent upward move in Bitcoin over just the past day or two was enough to hit a rebalancing band for me. Dang. Talk about volatile.

Yeah looks like it.

My gold is up 1.23%. Bitcoin is up 19.76% and bonds up 1.48%.

Stocks have tanked though lol. Especially my value fund, probably cause value seems to concentrate on the banking sector.

Looks like some of you are close..ish???

There is a strong probability I will be doing a graduate degree through Harvard Extension School pretty soon. I'd say about 80% likely.

When I'm in Cambridge if anyone wants to grab a bite and talk shop I'll be around.

Will have to check that out.
Btw, Fridman also did a fine job of playing ‘Black Betty’ on his guitar while in the front seat of a self-driving car

Fridman really is a new and improved joe rogan!

A rogan 2.0 if you will.

Imagine the cheek that someone must have trying to give tech advice to Pointedstick lol.

Why do the bots/spam accounts always seems to post in this particular thread???

I don't do individual stock picking for my PP but I do use factor funds, so definitely not a pure vanilla implementation here.
