February 23, 20214 yr Need a little advice from the Surly 1%ers..... I have a list of about 20 stocks with ten bagger growth potential that I would like to buy, but I have no cash to do so and will not use margin. I bought a pauper's palm of AMZN a few years back (i should have poured every dollar into it instead) and I've realized a 535% return since. Would it be a mistake to liquidate that position and use that money to diversify or should I find some other way to come up with more trading money and hold AMZN long term?

February 24, 20214 yr Question, do we think this dip is temporary? I feel like the excitement in the market flailed as the stimulus is taking longer to get passed. I feel like once it passes, or passage is inevitable, we will see a rise. Maybe not as high, but investors are fleeing tech stocks due to interest rates, and with new money hitting the economy, I would imagine interest rates would fall again.

February 25, 20214 yr Quote ... In response to a questions posed by Congressman Warren Davidson about whether “M2 [money supply] going up by 25% in one year” is going to “diminish the value of the U.S. dollar,” Powell responded, “there was a time when monetary policy aggregates were important determinants of inflation and that has not been the case for a long time.” Powell added that “the correlation between different aggregates [like] M2 and inflation is just very, very low, and you see that now where inflation is at 1.4% for this year. Inflation dynamics evolve over time, but they don’t tend to change overnight.” ... https://www.kitco.com/news/2021-02-24/Jerome-Powell-says-money-printing-doesn-t-lead-to-inflation.html Asset bubbles aren't inflation, so cool, cool...brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrt

February 26, 20214 yr stabilizers holding during this nascent bond tantrum, for the moment. (2013 was the last bond tantrum). One perspective - from Bloomberg: https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2021-02-26/treasury-bond-tantrum-is-a-big-test-of-central-banks-mettle . . . For developed stock markets, the question is whether a spike in bond yields can upset valuations. Tech, which has benefited tremendously from the conditions of the last year, is obviously the source of greatest concern (although to be fair, investors are sitting on fat profits in the sector). Over the last five years, the MSCI World as a whole has shown a tendency to hit a plateau and decline when tech earnings yields drop too far compared to 10-year Treasury yields. That choke point was passed a week ago, and has been followed with this week’s exciting events . . . The author's conclusion: Spoiler This is decent evidence that bond yields have reached a high enough level to thwart further advances in the stock market. It isn’t yet clear that they would on their own drive a major fall. On this basis, investors might want to fill up on U.S. banks, U.S. automakers, and European utilities. Banks in particular are already doing well. U.S. retail is, by a country mile, the sector you most want to avoid. Those, I think, are the best guidelines for now. In the longer term, the questions over whether bets on reflation are justified will rest on fascinating and profound issues of macroeconomics (and epidemiology). A true bond tantrum could yet turn into the fixed-income bear market that many of us have been bracing for. For now, this is a big market test of the central banks. It’s their move next. Watch yer ass and good luck. Know your limits, Master Wayne. Edited February 26, 20214 yr by washparkhorn
