Yes. Last time there was a serious debt limit potential snafu I went with a Swiss Franc ETF. Not sure what an easy, convenient angle is for this one though.
Well by all means challah At ya boy if and when you DO come up with an easy play for this one
hows my fetch.ai treating y’al? I made this months gas electric cable phones and grocery bills while it’s been jumping up and down between .69 and about a buck. And it’s all house money as I already made back my initial investment when it doubled overnight a little while back. It’s taking a lot of self control to not throw real money into that casino. It’s fun to see tangible results playing small, and it wouldn’t hurt if it went to zero tomorrow. but it would become unfun in a hurry if I lost like 5 figures or worse

no but China is my contrarian play, atm....got in and out of Tencent with a pretty good profit a while back but Baidu and Alibaba have not paid off for me yet. they are wildly undervalued, imho, but the politics at home will have to play out for a while. it's ok, i can wait

New research shows insider trading is everywhere. So far, no one seems to care.

Quantum computing.
I read an article last night how quantum computers can intercept a bitcoin transaction, solve the math, and enter the ledger first.
Read an article this am about mandatory daytime power outages in China.
Can't go wrong with food, clothing and shelter plays...

they are literally the Amazon of Asia and while they already have a market cap of $500 billion, they have barely scratched the surface of the potential market. i'm betting that the CCCP/Chinese gov is gonna fvck with them and Baidu and a bunch of others like them for a while, remind them of who's boss etc....but long term, they will not want to kill the geese that are laying golden eggs. we shall see.
Good times for my rigs again. Dinosaur juice at $80! Even those damn land-rigs I have going in Argentina are moving stronk! The fascists down there doesn't mind a little fracking fluid in the water. Makes doing the dishes easier as no soap is needed

100%. due to the CCP's meddling, it's like getting a chance to buy Amazon in the early ought's
The only currency ETFs I see doing much upside are Yen/AUD ultrashorts. I haven't done any homework to see if the Swiss Franc has been pegged to the Euro - they were doing this before when parasites like me were using their currency as a safe haven, driving it up and making watches and chocolates too expensive on the export market.
I have not. I heard it's turbo expensive, scenic, and some dank snowboarding on offer depending on the zone/season.
Contemplating a brief layover in Geneva next summer on the way back from Sardinia. Dublin is another option, which seems more my style . . . .
dude...bananaramas
I would def try to make it happened
asked kids where they want to go next summer....spin the globe
they said they want to go back to italy and switzerlolz
Our Swiss friends love visiting the USA.
They bring empty suitcase to fill up with things like electric tooth brush, vitamin pills, sneakers, skin care lotion, etc.
"It is so much cheaper here."
Urs did lots of coding in Silicon Valley and is fond of our unique IPA
"Took getting used to, it was so strong and wild tasting, but now Swiss and German beers are boring to me. My friend think I am crazy."
I dunno bout the l00t factor. Snowboarding is already vicious, and I haven't been to Revelstoke or back to Grand Targhee.
I am set in my trappist ale ways, but I don't think I've had a beer since before Covid.
I just googled debt ceiling hedge and most of the results were several years old. Unhappy face.
yep, so many people are passive investors. When the market is volatile it makes active investing more attractive to minimize risks and exposure (for a fee hehe)
It is crazy how many people are passive investing with ETF etc now, myself included.
I can make money off picking stocks but it's rolling the dice even if I do my research
