I knew that the Anthropic S1 would have some goofy risk factors but this has to take the cake

The longer you do this job, the more you realize how much of finance is just everybody asking everybody else what they should think.

Ughh. Saw this a couple of days too late! Would have loved to.
Otoh, glad the luggage arrived finally.

One of the benefits of the AI boom is that it gave us the word "slop." A perfect word, not only to describe the verbal garbage that AI generates, but that humans generate as well.

I was fortunate to have worked for @VicNiederhoffer in 2010/2011 and to have had him as my thesis advisor in grad school (paper on stat arb in ag futures based on cobweb theorem). I learned a lot from him about trading and life. Such a character. Endlessly curious. A genius if ever there was one. Sad to hear he is gone but glad I got to know him and that he shared so much with me and the world. Need some time to properly pay homage in writing. For now, RIP Vic.

The focus on the hold / hike decision is just a red herring. Markets actually had a relief rally with no hike because FFQ6 was pricing in a 33% chance. But the curve steepening is the Fed losing credibility- with the 30y selloff
Replying to @inflectionecon
The long bond would have rallied and curve massively flattened

Inverted chair - took a second to see this is a flipped chart!
