𝗜'𝗺 𝘂𝗽 𝟯𝟭% 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿, 𝗰𝗼𝗽𝘆 𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗷𝗼𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝘆 𝗘𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗼 𝗷𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆! It's been a good start to the year and I'm outperforming the $NSDQ100 both YTD and since I joined the platform. Now is a good time for the patient copier to copy me for the long term and join me in investing to grow a portfolio over time. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗺 With the size and strength of the rally we've had, you could wait for a pullback and might get it, so next month or three months from now could be a better time to copy or could see further gains. There are plenty of bears and bulls arguing about the short-term direction of the markets and there will definitely be winners and losers in the next few months. I'm not playing that game, I will adjust market exposure to reduce volatility and manage risk to try to take the edge off any sell-offs. Any broad-based short strategy, whilst potentially rewarding entails too much risk for my liking and I'm not looking to try to take shortcuts to success that risk getting us in a pickle. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗺 I'm here to grow my balance and grow the community of people copying me over the long term. I'm not here to take risks to inflate my performance or take risks in order to improve statistics on a bad month or year. I do not take it lightly that people have dedicated portions of their portfolio to copy me and my copiers' performance is key to me. My positions are tailored for all copy sizes; the minimum copy size is $200 and this will cover current and future positions. 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗽𝗶𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗼𝗽𝘆? Don't copy on a whim, you're likely to leave on a whim too if there's a bit of a pullback in the assets that I've invested in. I'd *really* like anyone copying to look at the long term. I've had many copiers come and go, sometimes joining after a strong period and leaving in the red after a bit of a pullback. I'm here looking to the decade ahead and not to sweat the short-term ups and downs and I'd encourage my would-be copiers to do the same. Tagging some of my less-typical assets for exposure: $SHOP $BIDU $NNDM

I'm adjusting positions today and looking for the many babies thrown out with the many bathwaters. Its hard to say how long this bloodbath with last, so I will be opening positions in assets that I believe in in the long term, rather than trying too much to take advantage of the short term.

I'm caught off guard by this positive $RIVN (Rivian Automotive) news. I'd started to build up a position, owing to their current value and strides towards being cash flow positive. Clearly anything that gives the asset this kind of bump is welcome, but it also muddies the water with what my... Show More

Best investment advice? Spend less money. Most of you, most of us, do not have enough invested to really make a mind boggling difference to our lives. Being able to live, and live on a budget that allows you to save and invest monthly with accelerate gains in the mid to long term, review your outgoings,... Show More

On Trump and the independence of the Fed. Trump allies recently floated the idea of eliminating fed independence, allowing more presidential control over monetary policy. I'm both worried by this and not, mostly because I'm hoping it's not a serious suggestion and is just politics. This... Show More

April was our worst month in over a year, having to look back to the end of 2022 to be beaten. Persistent inflation and strong economic date laid waste to the idea of rate cuts coming soon - we're still in the upside down world in which good economic data is perceived as bad news - particularly...

I've begun slowly lightening my $MSTR (MicroStrategy Incorporated), $COIN (Coinbase Global Inc) and $BTC positions. They've performed remarkably well this year, but the coming weeks ahead could prove to be a rather large Sell-the-news event - at least in the short term. I'd like to be a... Show More

China has looked like a bargain for some time, but is weighed down by immature fiscal regulations, a heavy-handed-government approach that often backfires in predictable/unpredictable ways added to general economic malaise. I do think all of these problems have solutions, but it remains to be seen if... Show More

Yemen strikes 🇾🇪 We saw initial strikes on the Houthi rebels in Yemen over night. This is unlikely to bring stability to shipping in the region in the short term, as the infrastructure needed to launch attacks is limited and restoring order completely will require compromise, a long term air campaign...

It's Friday, and talk of a $BTC ETF has been abundant lately, but on Monday BTC is set to go to the moon, so I figure a fun poll of your Monday predictions:
The BTC will explode badly 💥

Just a quick note. With the changes in copy mechanics I'm less certain on how this will impact copiers, and I assume that it will still trigger a copy dividend. I've removing a ~30%-40% portion of my balance on the 29th of this month. The purpose of this is house-buying related. I remain... Show More
