The Revolution Hit Your Brokerage Account

Ghosts of Crisis Past. Back Again
Everybody is busy trying to predict the next crisis. That’s where the headlines are. That’s where all the noise is. And that’s where we’ve seen people go to feel smart. Meanwhile, I believe the real opportunity is sitting in the…
Bear Market Cancelled
It’s a bull market. That’s the backdrop. In environments like this, the math is simple. You get paid for owning stocks. You don’t get paid for sitting out. And fighting the trend is usually the most expensive decision you can…
If People Weren’t Buying, Nothing Would Be Moving
Are things actually slowing down, or is that just the story people keep telling themselves? Because when I look around, I see plenty of fear from investors. But price action is telling a completely different story. While everyone debates recessions…
Stocks vs Gold: You’re Looking at This All Wrong

Bitcoin Actually Went Up This Month
The first quarter is in the books. This is when I lean hardest on what I already know works. Zooming out isn’t optional. It’s the closest thing we have to a cheat code. Prices trend. That’s not an opinion. And…
Too Hedged for Chaos
Are you surprised stocks aren’t down more? Because if you’re just following the headlines, they’ll tell you things are breaking down everywhere. Bear market. Risk off. Get defensive. But when you actually look under the hood, it’s a different story.…
Buying Weakness in Strength
My friend Ari Wald put something on my radar this weekend that I haven’t been able to stop thinking about. Most people hear “buy the dip” and immediately look for whatever just got hit the hardest. The problem is, a…
Biotech Isn’t the Problem. You Are
For most of my career, biotech was an automatic “no.” It wasn’t worth the headache. I don’t understand the science. I don’t understand the drugs. And I’ve seen what happens when people convince themselves they do. Early on, some of…
