$NVDA - NVIDIA CORP - TO INVEST UP TO $100 BLN IN OPENAI NVIDIA CORP - FIRST GIGAWATT OF NVIDIA SYSTEMS TO DEPLOY IN 2026- embarrassing how easy it is to make money in equity markets the last couple of weeks, this ain't skill, actually the dumber you are the more money you made.
- When I was studying in college, the process was beautifully brutal. You’d be handed a problem or a theorem to prove, and the real work began, not just solving it, but wrestling with it. try different approaches, hit dead ends, rethink, and eventually sometimes after hours or days
- I hate those accounts that make quant trading appear extremely technical and academic. Every successful market practitioner will tell you it's really not. It's not about fancy new algorithm or statistical technique. it's about getting the big picture right in the specific segment
- Bond losses are not real, if you hold the treasuries till maturity you get back par. Concept seems to have escaped some notice recently.
- I hate to break it to idiots working in Manhattan or San Francisco but a society where people get brutalized by inflation and only people with assets (stocks/RE/crypto) keep up won't work and it will lead to some version of a revolution. And no, wages did not keep up.
- What’s game theory in machine learning?Learn Game Theory in Machine Learning. Go into debt if you have to.
- Sometimes I am mesmerised by people in their late 40s in finance still working for large institutions or like doing qr or risk at a large hedge fund. Even if they make a lot of money (and they probably don’t) like come on, don’t you a have the slightest bit of ambition?
- LLMs struggle predict the trajectory of ball from a sequence of frames, but sure let’s with something more deterministic like stock prices.introducing Syntex - your own ai trading copilot. it’s cursor for trading. sign up below to get access:
00:00 - I hate employees from prestigious HFs who dunk on people starting their own businesses, particularly people doing bullshit like « QR» or « risk management ». Buddy you run like bachelor statistics level models for an organisation which would be successful without or without you
- The best HFs in the world don't let/pay their traders to guess broad market direction, why do you think that is? They know humans are dog shit at that. But hey you keep analyzing fed speech and think you are so fucking wise and can do it. Good luck to you. I am out of here for
- Americans don’t realise how well their financial markets function and that everyone around the world trade U.S. markets. Even fucking Australians wake up at 4 a.m. to watch unchanged S&P on FOMC day.
- I know this is hard to swallow but a view on the economy is completely irrelevant if you want to make money trading.
