A Trump presidency is begging you to take advantage of volatility.
I have, and I’m up 470% ytd

It’s probably not the greatest for passive investors.

Do you only invest when Trump is president?

The volatility of a Trump market creates opportunities that don’t exist apart from him.
My ytd returns, in part, have his shenanigans to thank.

Ok so you’re a trader that plays the market on trumps declarations.

Can you give us some specifics on times that you raked in big gains?

And further, do you give this board a heads up so others can cash in on trumps declarations?

Bomb Iran. Stocks tank.

Trump announces "agreement to end conflict." Stocks skyrocket.

Straight of Hormuz close. Stocks tank.

Straight of Hormuz open. Stocks skyrocket.


Just a couple of examples. If you play long enough dated calls to sift through and wait out the bullshite, you can capitalize.

Or just buy low, sell high if you don't want to play options. Look at the daily charts on your stocks. Look at OUST. We have been flipping from the upper 30's/low 40's up to the upper 40's like a yo-yo for a month now it seems.

I don't really know why you're being such a dick or why you're so angry. I was giving a couple examples that you asked to be provided. I'm sure there are several more.

Pattern recognition doesn't give me the ability to see the future.

I don't do a ton of options. But there are days (and moments within days) when I've seen my stocks violently shoot straight up (and conversely, violently shoot straight down) due to announcements. That doesn't mean I'm bootlicking the guy. It's just what happens. The last couple days have been pretty rough, and not every red or green day is solely dependent on announcements from Trump. But to act like his behavior and his actions haven't introduced an additional layer of volatility in the market is just asinine. There's a lot of better investors than me out there that are good at playing the swings (like BB88). Why you're so mad at him because he's learned how to make money off of it, I don't understand? Jealousy, I suppose?

Anyways, good luck.

You are oversimplifying it. It's not about bombing or not bombing. Trump has had conferences and announcements on AI, rare earth materials, defense contractors and drones.

Energy, semi-conductors, and other sectors have been impacted by Trump because he doesn't just leave everything to sort itself out. That is what got us dependent on China for materials that are critical for our national security.

When an event occurs that causes a specific sector to tank, that money doesn't just disappear. It gets reallocated to a different sector.

My question is, what's the best way to stay current on Trumps announcements? I presume X?
