Quick Update

 Short term trades:

  • Portfolio up bigly on Tuesday, down medium last night.
  • Some of my shorts did not work out, cut loss.
  • Sold my crypto stonk at a small loss 2 nights ago.  Most of crypto is falling, BTC is dropping like a rock despite tech going up.  Last night shorted my favourite crypto PoS, MSTR.  Its falling so fast its hard to build a decent position. 
  • Memory up 15% in Tues night.  I decided to keep it.  Its a bubble, but we don't know wether is 2001 or 1999.  The big question is when Korea/China increases capacity, or HBM demand from Mag7 fades.
  • Small position in QTUM also up bigly.
  • Added to some Mag7 positions, they are down over the past 2 days while everything else is up.
  • Reshorting TLT.  Rising growth and inflation leads to higher rates.
Medium term:
  • Looking for signs to buy gold, when rising rate expectations peak.  No sign of this yet.
  • Cut my position in Var Energi from 4% to 2%, as WTI/Brent start to break Hedgeye's trend.  The market is pricing in an Iran resolution. 
Long term, conflicting views:
  • US is in a growth phase now (mid-terms, tax stimulus, data centre buildout), but there's a chance it turns to stagflation in the next few months.
  • Even if we get the growth, end 2026 is probably the peak.  2027 is a bear.
