I was pondering a TESLA trade alert from MHFT today when my cell rang with a Lake Tahoe area code. Since I know a couple of people in that part of the world, I answered, and it was none other than John Thomas. If I had not heard his voice on the MHFT webinars, I

Global Market Comments December 10, 2024 Fiat Lux   Featured Trade: (A NOTE ON OPTIONS ASSIGNED OR CALLED AWAY) (BRK/B)

With a record of ten positions going into the December 20 options expiration, I am seeing an increasing number of options positions assigned or called away. This year, I saw that the upside momentum in the stock market was so strong that I decided to run everything into expiration. That will take me to a

First of all, I have to apologize for skipping the last Monday Global Strategy Letter, the highlight of my writing week. I usually write this letter on weekends, but the last one followed Thanksgiving. I thought that 30 years in the future when I am on my deathbed, I’m definitely NOT going to be regretting

Dear Mr. Thomas,  Thanks for the 10-bagger on Palantir.  I bought it at $7.50 and it’s now at $63.50, so I'd call that close enough to qualify.  You pointed me to this company long ago, and I was patient. Best regards, David  

It was with great sadness that I learned of the passing of travel guru Arthur Frommer at the age of 95. Arthur had a great influence on my life. Since many of you are now planning summer vacations, I thought I would pass on what I learned from the ultimate travel guru of all time.

“The individual investor in America sits at the bottom of the food chain,” said John C. Bogle, the late founder of the Vanguard Group of index funds.

Global Market Comments December 5, 2024 Fiat Lux   Featured Trade: (LAUNCHING “TRADING OPTIONS FOR BEGINNERS”)

Not a day goes by without an email coming in asking if beginners can make use of my money making service. I always reply; “Absolutely.” When I first started the Diary of a Mad Hedge Fund Trader a 17 years ago, layoffs were rampant, General Motors was going bankrupt, and the financial crisis was imminent.

Global Market Comments December 4, 2024 Fiat Lux   Featured Trade: (AMERICA’S DEMOGRAPHIC TIME BOMB)

You can never underestimate the importance of demographics in shaping long-term investment trends, so I thought I’d pass on these two highly instructive maps. The first shows a map of the world drawn in terms of the population of children, while the second illustrates the globe in terms of its 100-year-olds. Notice that China and

The election is over and a brave new world lies before us. But the Fed may soon stop raising interest rates, inflation is rising, and tech stocks are flat-lining! Can a stock market crash be far behind?  What should you do about it? Attend the Mad Hedge Traders & Investors Summit from December 3 - 5.

David Tepper

It is always the sign of a great hedge fund manager when he makes money while he is wrong. I have seen this throughout my life, trading with clients and friends like George Soros, Julian Robertson, Paul Tudor Jones, and David Tepper. And wrong I certainly was in 2024. I thought Trump would lose the
