Normally, I just read what others write in here and simply walk away from what I find as not interesting. Why are you so bothered by MJ ? I do not concur with what he is saying (well, there are people that tend to believe in urine therapy, too), but that does not necessarily mean that we have to kil...

Yes, its massacre in Europe. Already the air flights to/from South African countries are halted in many EU countries, due to the new strain.

Stoxx 50 closed -4.72% and Stoxx 600 closed -3.70%

I bought a bit more Total Stock Market. Bought that dog shit ? What a crap ... ;D From now onwards I'll be the stocks buddtholomew .. Joke aside, Stoxx 50 is already more than 3% down for the day (Nikkei was also), so SPY will follow. For the tmie being the "explanation" is the new South ...

Stay safe, Hal. Just out of curiosity, what flags did you see? FFWD through the film - from what can be considered Eastern European - Croatian, Polish, Albanian and Greek flags. Saw also Irish. Croatian and Polish guys know some things about socialism, for sure.. Actually it is very funny to see th...

Why did LITECOIN surge so much yesterday? Not only Litecoin, but couple of others too, read it somewhere. What I got in essence is that the price urge is due to AMC Corp claiming they're looking forward to accept some of that crap before the end of the year as payment... (a sort of). IMHO that cryp...

Yeah, well.. he's indeed preaching the forum's sermon - rates go up, but they can go down as well... (sometimes I think I am falling prey to some very sophisticated forum generator tool, good that it's MJ to have the #LTTGold_Crap and #DontFightTheFed stuff around.. but he might be part of the tool'...

But I don't, and I like the PP going forward. Even with super high priced stocks and bonds, worthless cash, and the barbarous relic. Amen, brother. Oddly enough I have a bit more time than usual and just finished "The simple path to wealth" . I guess the author is member of some radical r...

I do 50% SP500 and 50% Small Cap for the equities portion of my PP. I think it was MachineGhost who turned me on to it. Isn't it the GB that suggest that also ? In my purest US-PP I am using MSCI USA (has sthg like 630~640 constituents vs tad less than 500 for the S&P 500). This is an interesti...

Talking about momentum strategies, have been quite a while since I want to ask you guys - what do you think about the Andreas Clenow's works, especially "Stocks on the move"? Simple linear regression (* coefficient of determination) - guess it cannot get any simpler than that for an 'algo...

Not sure it was posted earlier here, a work from Nassim Taleb named "Bitcoin, Currencies, and Fragility"

Even though I can't clearly understand all of his statements, its a good food for thought.

- Nov 11th, 2020 by pmward See his reasons why at https://gyroscopicinvesting.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=11503#p211975 I miss this guy to be honest. He was having broad helicopter view on many financial processes, while on the other hand very good knowledge of the technical aspects of tradi...

Yes, indeed, you should follow the markets more closely .. stick your face to those steep charts (where there is a mile between the price and MA 20) ;D I exited today all of my momentum stocks. So far, so good - profit feels nice and heavy in the pocket. We are close to all time highs for both S&...

Yeah, this one actually may serve as very nice HBPP hedge .. Guess they have decent negative correlation

If PP is not futures based - Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday, at lunch time. First days of any month are normally more volatile... Or you can use early stages of any volatility contraction periods to enter... Who knows... I am always using limit orders, always- I can certainly wait and not becoming a...

Fine gold again means non-24 karat purity (i.e. 22), right ? Or did they change anything in that aspect ? Very strange, but my understanding is that the rest of the world (<> US) tend to believe FINE equals 24 karats...

I would rather advice any Russian ladies to PM me first ! As a citizen of the also-known-as-the-16th USSR state country, I feel their 'pain' and also can give them (almost) free advice about the wealthy ones here ;D MJ may reconsider his decision to leave the forum too... Joke apart, ladies, you may...

UBUJ - MSCI USA hedged to EUR is worth consideration for residents of the old continent

anything that reduces my ability to invest globally You know, it's simple as that - you just do not realize how lucky you (US and Canada guys for that matter) are in general ;D. Can you imagine me doing my selective (used this term to keep it simple) investing in the European index Stoxx 600 - give...

For gold it might be I have some vague idea on where it might be headed, however silver, platinum and palladium are quite unpredictable in my eyes. I have spent some time in the past to read about their industrial usages, etc. and still cannot share anything that really caught my attention. For me t...

This reminds me what I noticed yesterday......that Mathjak is another one who has now been missing from here for awhile. True, it's getting out of control :o . Guys like me (daily readers) suffer a lot. Especially as being someone that does not give a **** about both Trump and Biden. If you leave w...

Is the stock tilt inspired by Biden's recent speech? :D Joke apart, that might look fine for an aggressive investor, but for PP folks (like me) 75% stocks is a huge pill to swallow... Tend to believe in all index implementations correlation between US and world is way way higher to have the split ev...

He just PM-ed me - he is doing very fine, but seems he simply does not like you anymore ...

Joke aside, forum looks different without DS.

Your post show complete lack of understanding and respect on the matter, sorry to say it. This is the internet. If you need every post prefaced with preapologies to anyone who might have experienced covid or know someone who experienced it before being asked if you know anyone who is sick....... th...

And by the way I know many people that got it too, guess you are lucky enough to have vaccination in advanced stage in US and also people not treating 20 centimeters as proper "social distancing" as many guys here in Southern Europe consider it...
