Hopefully you loaded up on the 3rd and dumped it last night…if not, oof. I lost a little in a panic sell. 

The guy I follow was short through the collapse, then went long during the sucker rally. I wasn't thrilled by the end of Tuesday, but I trust him and it paid off on Today.

Lot of money to be made there, just remember, it is absolutely not a store of value/safety trade. It's been moving basically in sync with the magnificent seven. Completely speculative right now.

agreed the swings are brutal

i'm on a 15-20 year BTC investing horizon and think it can hit 500k + down the road. used to think those numbers were crazy until i dug into the math. the big investment firms taking positions in it seems to signal it's long term viable.

Still up form the low...lost about 33% of yesterday's gain.  Buying the dips...I had a lot of cash sitting on the sidelines.

Nice!

[icohftb]

Will be plenty more opportunities to buy the low. Just need to figure out how to call them!

If true, we’re gonna get to test your guys’s theories about how soft power and globalization are old news! The cracks are starting to form in the world order.

But at least some insiders and billionaires are making money off dumps and pumps while we go down. Transfer that wealth!

Europe is the gayest place on Earth.  How else will they continue to purchase cheap dildos besides meeting with Xi.

BTW, new CJCS confirmed by 60 senators.

 

[BFM this]

Usually around o6, always seemed like the callsign starts getting downplayed, spoken less and less in public settings.

Don't think I’ve seen anything about this CJCS since he was first mentioned that didn’t state his callsign at least once in every instance.

I like it 🤘

Not holding my breath but a $400million fine seems about right.

Letitia James is in deep crap...this is not some contrived first-ever interpretation of the law used to attack a political foe, this is real fraud...and it gets uglier as they peel back the onion....BLUF - She married her father?

The big-ticket item was a property she told banks in 2023 was her primary residence, despite the fact that it was in Virginia and despite being a statewide public office holder in the state of New York at that same time and primarily residing in the state of New York,  Not only did she lie, she had some help from others in her office to make it seem legitimate.  In the document, James attested, “I hereby declare I intend to occupy this property as my principal residence.” The document was witnessed by First Deputy Attorney General Jennifer Levy and a New York state secretary — and notarized.

Not only did he falsely declare Virginia as her state of residence, on numerous documents she declared her father as her husband to meet the federal loan guarantees requirements.

Beside the Mortage Fraud with the banks

She also got her appraiser to list a 5 Bedroom house as a 4 bedroom. A 5 bedroom house is a considered commercial property. With more inspections and costs

I don't believe you.  A 5 unit, sure.  A residential 5 bedroom single house, nah.

It was indeed units and a clear violation

Pulte asserted that James obtained a “conforming loan through the Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac” that was only available for properties with four units or less. Records also indicate that James has “consistently misrepresented the same property as only having four units in both building permit applications and numerous mortgage documents and applications,” Pulte said.

I was on the way back from the Patrick commissary. I think it was on XM POTUS channel. 
 

They had an appraiser call in saying the appraiser had already lost his job. And the only reason to lose you license was if you took a bribe

[disgruntledemployee]

Gotcha.  I agree that anything above 4 units is usually deemed commercial.

Carry on

[tac airlifter]

She’s in deep shit legally, the question is if DOJ has the balls to prosecute under extreme media pressure to mislabel this as “going after political enemies” or other such mischaracterization.  

[HeloDude]

The left was all about going after Trump for petty crap, so I’m sure they’ll be fine with going after their own for the same thing.

Kind of like they were when Biden broke the law?…let me save you the suspense:  The vast majority of Democrats will not be calling for her to be prosecuted and/or step down.
