Poor Day for Risk — Lack of Follow Thru Crushes the Overzealous

My issues look to be somewhat resolved in Exodus. We have a brand new API for data and the latency is very low, and clean, and beautiful. I was out all day, cavorting around Princeton in my corduroys and vest, Americano in tow. I’m not a dandy, mind you. Look at me sideways and I’ll bust your jaw for you.

I see stocks were down and tech down miserably. I sold out of SQ today for a 7% loss and my cash position is now 60%.

I gave back much of my praised and glorious winship in TLRY today. I’d like to blame it on the fact that I was literally not at my desk for a single minute today; but that’s no excuse. I merely looked at it, saw it was only 5% of my portfolio, and decided to let it ride. Had I been at the desk, I would’ve sold it — almost assuredly.

Tomorrow should be a normal day for me and I really do need to unwind a little bit. Between my poor sleep habits, stress at home and at work, Le Fly’s life expectancy is quickly barreling towards zero.

NOTE: Yesterday’s purchase were executed under the assumption that prices might come in. The idea was to be long from now until Turkey Day. That theorem still applies and I will use said cash to double down on my present positions.

    The Mouse rules! Beating on top & bottom lines while also reminding Millenials that they would have soon have to find a new home for cartoons, Avengers, and Star Wars

    #Disney+
    #Hulu
    #poundNFLX

    Disney (Mickey Mouse, Snow White, The Jungle Book, Bambi, Peter Pan, Frozen, etc.), Marvel (The Avengers, The X-Men, etc.), Pixar (Toy Story, The Incredibles, Finding Nemo, etc.), ESPN, 20th Century Fox (Titanic, Avatar, etc.), LucasFIlms(Star Wars, Indiana Jones, etc.), Miramax,…..

    That’s a sample. But of course, NFLX has House of Cards, Stranger Things, Orange is the New Black, and 3 Marvel series in the top 10 that they will probably lose within 2 years

    Actaully they already lost Luke Cage.

    I’m sure all of Netflix’s shows ($138B market Cap)are worth about the same as Disney’s IP ($172B). And the fact that Disney has Theme parks and more TONS of licensed merchandise (Disney, Marvel. XMen) shouldn’t really count for much.

    Voter fraud on steroids happening now. In FL AZ GA. Hard to see the play. Commies want crude at $10,000 a barrel. Supposedly. Probably horseshit.
