Been thinking increasingly frequently about this book in recent weeks. If you haven’t read it, it’s a strong recommend

(all) wars are good and easy to win just ask the stock market
Three 5km runs in as many days is the height of stupidity. Luckily I’ve never been burdened by the weight of intellect.
I see you’re all celebrating the 6 year anniversary of the great summer of Covid discontent….
Also, while I’m here, I just saw where Bill and Ben closed…. Lolz? Pissant in his finest hour?
Quite literally none of you (and largely very few in the mkt) were in any way (let alone, materially) affected by the whole situational awareness nonsense and yet…. Fuck me sideways ppl do love to carry on. Spouting shit just for the sake of being heard. Anyway, happy Saturday. Go touch grass.
Sadly, I keep thinking about NKOTB. He maintains that the mkt is doing god’s work and is a pricing mechanism operating efficiently/correctly. From this all I can infer is that yields should continue to run higher and eventually the fed will hike. Tell me I’m wrong? And why.
by this time tomorrow most of you would've forgotten what just happened in Bill and Ben why? you can take a guess
in other words, we very much like volatility and in fact, welcome it into our lives with arms wide open - 'we are not here to close spreads, just widen waistlines' (from this very good piece www.ft.com/content/fe3f... )
Is there a fed task force in place to look for the chair’s testicles? feels like that might be a worthwhile task force
He’s to central banking what Nutlick is to the department of Commerce Slippery shitbag
And fair play to @steveliesman.bsky.social He tried, not once but twice and yet NKOTB still dodged providing a real answer
NKOTB excellent at talking a lot and saying fuck all Wanker
Debating whether I even bother watching NKOTB spout shit tonight and am leaning very heavily towards a hard no fucking chance
Genuinely feels like we literally just had an FOMC. And yet… here we go again with this shit show
time and again I feel it's been proven that in spite of all the pearl clutching things happen and everyone just moves on fewer FOMC pressers (should we go down that road) will be just another example
they do it the same way this administration has done everything else; point blank with zero fucks given (yes, I know they're not part of the administration etc - this isn't my first day on the job lads) my point is - increasingly a precedent of sorts has been set by the gibbon in chief
Steve Liesman@steveliesman.bsky.social · last wk.Asked by @carlquintanilla.bsky.social on @squawkstreet.bsky.social this morning how the Fed might rollback press conferences by the chair, I said, I don't know. In my 30 years of covering the Fed, I've only reported on increases in transparency. Not sure how they would announce a rollback.
What could possibly go wrong? Siri, show me the perfect Venn of ‘bag holder’ and ‘exit liquidity’
I’m on holiday so just popping in for some clarification; Hormuz open or closed? War finished or ongoing? Sky blue? Water wet?
Increasingly I have fewer and fewer good things to say about Straya but… undeniably their coffee is world beating Like even the shittiest greasy spoon does a coffee that’s better than most anywhere else in the world.
