Trump’s Iran Strategy: Nonexistent, According to Chase

My buddy Chase at @pineconemacro killed me with his summary of Trump’s Iran plan🤣. Or lack of plan. We certainly share a similar view on this one. If you aren’t subscribed to his stuff, you’re missing out… https://t.co/6OJ1zP2IaA

Hormuz Closure Fuels Looming Oil Price Spike

It’s now been a month since this posting of mine. I still don’t think it’s dawned on most investors that Hormuz isn’t opening until Iran wants it open. With oil starting to get frisky to the upside, I think we’re getting...

If you look at this as a business, you’re gonna be disappointed. This is the greatest stock promotion of all time (made better bc you can’t even buy shares today)… $1T in AI capex so far and revenue has ramped to...

Quant's 600+ SP

A quant buddy told me on the lows that we’d slingshot 600+ SPZ and NATH before the end of April. Respect given for nailing that call. You know who you are. Wish I had followed… https://t.co/c5wCz1ApXJ

Market Ignores Hormuz Shutdown; Datacenter Attacks Could Trigger Crash

Literally no one in the mkt seems to care that Hormuz has been shut for a month, but if they start hitting datacenters, we may finally crash…🤣

The important thing is that Trump is out of attractive options. Hormuz has to open, or the global economy dies. Iran won’t negotiate and ground wars are messy. Given the size and population of Iran, we likely need a force...

The Iranians ramped the price of oil, forced OPEC to shut in a bunch of barrels, and are still shipping theirs with no issues… Seriously, tell me the boys at Vitol aren’t watching this move in awe…🤣

Distressed 9x‑levered PIK Bond Faces Buyer Vacuum

Just curious, but when you have an 11% PIK, cov-lite bond on a corporate that’s 9x levered, who’s the logical buyer when there is forced selling?? Like can this go from 99 offered to 10 bid in a single trade…??
