In the stock market, there are patterns in what seems like total randomness. Very subtle, very inconspicuous.
The good thing about trading?
Even if you never become profitable, you still go on the deepest spiritual journey of your life.
You start wanting money…
you end up discovering:
Your ego issues
Your impulse control problems
Your fear of uncertainty
Your need to be right
You came for profits.
You got forced into self-awareness.
Trading really said:
“Oh you want money? Cool. First fix your entire personality.”
It’s the only industry where before paying you…
it turns you into a better human first
Remember, the only way to lose in the game ‘Monopoly’ is to run out of money.
Therein lies the similarities to trading, you can’t trade anymore if you run out of money.
Despite having a great strategy, you can still lose.
Therefore, trade small. Protect your bankroll and live to trade another day.

No one understands WHAT IS REALLY going on in the economy and stocks regarding the announcements the past 10 days. I will explain the ramifications of all this 📉🫶🏼❤️ Here we go...
Right now, the market is freaking out about something it should actually be celebrating. 🎉
You keep hearing the same headline:
$AMZN $200B in capex
$GOOGL $180B
$META $125–135B
And Wall Street’s reaction is basically: “Too much spending. Bad for earnings. Bad for stock price.” 😡
They’re missing the entire point.
Here’s what most investors are thinking:
“All that money could’ve gone to share buybacks. That would instantly boost EPS. Why waste it on capex?”
But stop and think for a second. What does a share buyback actually do for the real economy?
Almost NOTHING!
It’s financial engineering. It makes earnings per share look better on paper, but it doesn’t create jobs, infrastructure, innovation, or growth.
The money basically disappears into the capital markets.
Now compare that to $200 billion in capex.
People hear that number and imagine it vanishing into some corporate black hole.
That is the opposite of what happens.
When Amazon says “we’re spending $200B,” that money flows everywhere.
It goes to:
– chip designers 📟
– semiconductor manufacturers 💾
– data center builders ⚙️
– construction companies 🏗️
– electricians ⚡
– engineers 👷🏻♂️
– logistics firms 🚚
– truck drivers 🚛
– railroads 🚂
– ports 🏗️
– suppliers 🛠️
– local communities 👷🏻♀️
This isn’t Monopoly money. It’s real economic activity. Take something like TSMC building new facilities in the U.S.
Have you ever seen one of these plants go up? It looks like an NFL stadium being built – except it lasts for YEARS. 💰💰💰
Thousands of workers.
Tons of suppliers.
Entire regional economies are getting lifted.
And that’s just one layer.
All those chips need to be manufactured, shipped, installed, maintained.
Servers need cooling systems, networking, power grids.
Data centers don’t magically appear.
This is economic stimulus on a massive scale.
When companies spend on buybacks, the impact is narrow and financial.
When they spend on capex, the impact is broad and real.
That money ends up in companies’ pockets, workers’ pockets, and eventually consumer pockets.
Which then gets spent again.
That’s how GROWTH cycles actually happen. 📈
So while the market is obsessing over short-term margins and EPS optics, something much bigger is taking place underneath.
We’re entering a multi-year investment cycle led by the biggest, strongest companies in the world.
And that is overwhelmingly positive for the economy.
The panic you’re seeing right now is the market being drama as to be expected.
The long-term implications of this spending spree are not.
Understand the difference.
Ignore the noise.
Follow where the real money is going. 💵

“The truth is that what I learned at Renaissance is that when we’re ready to trade information doesn’t matter…
…when we…the generally what we looked at was not news we just looked at Price movements because we assumed that any news we could see…someone else had already seen that news they’ already traded off of it and whatever I needed to learn from that news was already encoded in some way in the price in the stock market.
So all of our models just looked at price and volume…and…how deep the book was…we looked at the…the actual people betting on the market and we assumed that anything that could be known about stocks…we couldn’t possibly figure out…from the news…but we knew that there were people who were experts on every single stock who were reading the news and they were trading off of it and so if we just looked at the stock prices we could glean what we needed to know…
when you see news happen you have to assume that everyone bigger than you already knows that…everyone who trades Disney already heard that news…minutes to hours before you did…they’ve already traded off of it…and… the stock price has already moved up to where that news reflects the price should be…”
Don’t be too rigid in your system.
Don’t be delusional.
Rather
be flexible and enduring.
