Hi Solomon For a 5-10 year horizon, I would be a bit wary of all the macro headwinds...over a decade of zero interest rate policy and quantitative easing is over. We are now in a tightening cycle...albeit, I believe a shorter than advertised. Tech and growth have already taken significant...

Hah...yes, I read that site regularly. Its a great resource, but to be a contributor, you commit to regular frequent posts and too many of the contributors nowadays just post rehashed templated of content driving you to their newsletter or website. Im not that interested in promoting myself...

Some people can talk about The Bachelor or Clippers v Lakers for hours. I do markets. Shrug.

True, but like all business contracts, you should read the fine print before signing! I've never seen such an agreement which allows a firm to forcibly call back a short position for any vague reason. It's almost always tied to margin/leverage exposure by the borrower. Some of these newer...

I wouldn't say the stock market is a scam. Like most things, people with more capital have greater advantages. If you have a $1 million account, you are more likely to spend $200/mo for real time news releases and a data platform that gives more insight to in depth market activity. You would...
