Tuesday.

Retirement savings down another 5%.

Did get a little lucky that one of my covered calls on MSTR got called Friday.

Bought some back 16% cheaper, today. Yay.

Here’s my take.

Trump, Bessent, Lutnick, et al are walking the market down. They are short and in bonds. Trump is going full dictator, at Elon’s urging, because Elon wants Dark MAGA to lead a new corporate governance state. That’s means they don’t want a middle class, just Oligarchs and the masses.

The only rationale for these moves is of you think you can win the next election or you think you won’t need to. The former is not happening after this week, that means either the fix is in and the system is rigged or we won’t even get to vote.

I won’t be here. So, the fight is up to you.

Personally, I think citizens should interrupt Trump’s $92 million birthday parade.
