Oh, is that the ironic part of this whole thing? Conservatives: I love the right to life 💓 Conservatives: *Simply not enough money for daycare, we have to start a war and bomb children and fishing boats because reasons* Conservatives: we love freedom of speech! Conservatives: *Actually only the press orgs that I like get to be in the WH briefing room. And actually, you don't get to publish anything we don't like.* Conservatives: family values family values be like Jesus! Conservatives: *he was just jokiiiiing, and if he wasn't, who cares? Also will you stop pestering us about the past it isn't a big deal* Conservatives: *but what you said wasn't funny and you should be fired for it, and disagreeing with us is basically insurrection* Conservatives: *no no no no those were just tourists excercising their right to speech* Conservatives: shootings happen! Gun rights, what can ya do? Conservatives: *why must it always be <rich adult man> who are senselessly slaughtered* Conservatives: have you no respect for human life?! Why would you wish death on anyone?! Conservatives, Dallas, TX, 2016: *for the bull show we have this straw effigy of Hillary Clinton that our fighter will get the bull to run through!* Conservatives, 2020's: *HA heard that guy is dead, one less problem for us, never liked em anyway, by the way they sucked* Conservatives: DEI is pretty unfair, hiring should be on merit Conservatives: *so anyway, his sister probably can do the job, she'll be taking over now that he has passed.* Also: *crickets, when contracts with cabinet family members' buddies are issued for exorbitant sums* Get out from your rock bud

Should they? Probably. Will they? No, at least not before the mid-term elections. Politically, the Fed chair is better off kicking the can down the road, and letting the bond markets dictate rates (bond vigilantes). That way the Trump boot lickers can just say they did everything they could in support of the WH policies/objectives. It's the bond markets fault for the rates.

No-Bicycle-7660

Yup. Treasury's playbook is to debase its way out of the debt trap ... which frankly is the only option left with debt and deficit so high, and zero appetite at WH, or in Congress to reign in spending. Fed are lining up for massive monetary deregulation which will debase the dollar and lower yields, before later lowering rates themselves.

The market has been conditioned to this constant rattling. What would be ironic is that either the fed raising the discount rate or further tariff threats could cause a recession. The better course of not over reacting will be hard to expect from this WH.

They slapped around a lab that they had preexisting ideological beef with for a few weeks and then let them release the model. Are they going to do the same thing to an ideological ally like xAI? Maybe, for a few weeks. But for years? Even when China is releasing more capable open weight models? No way. It’s not a stable long-term equilibrium. And anyways, what they did to fable wasn’t legal. You can’t actually use export controls to do that. Anthropic didn’t sue because they (wisely) didn’t want additional beef with the White House, but if the WH tried to apply that kind of ban permanently someone would eventually sue and win.

TrustyJules

Thank you for this - I found it very useful though perhaps not in the way you would have thought. I have been working on a strategy implementation that involves pinning behaviour of stocks on Friday expiry. I got interested in this after reading Jeff Augen's books on trading volatility. With the advent of AI script writing tools it suddenly becomes possible to do much more to exploit 0DTE pinning behaviour. You can check this blog post (and its predecessor) if you are interested. [https://steadyoptions.com/articles/strike-price-effects-or-pinning-revisted-r830/](https://steadyoptions.com/articles/strike-price-effects-or-pinning-revisted-r830/) Why your post is interesting is because pinning is caused by gamma flattening of books. You seem somewhat skeptical of the concept however to a degree (and only for liquid stocks) pinning occurs and it would not occur unless gamma flattening occurred. Pinning is something that can be disrupted by an extraneous event - another poster mentioned a WH tweet about nukes being launched - and no GEX or other tool would help you against that. Same with volatility in the market or for a stock being too high will make it impossible to find a pinning strike. Right now the way I determine the pinning strike of a stock, is to look backwards at the morning session at 12 o'clock eastern, count the number of crosses of a particular strike and look at volume and OI on these strikes. For the limited selection of sufficiently liquid stocks this yields a quite reliable pinning strike. Now GEX is in fact not different from this with this formula we can verify the strike price the stock looks like it will pin to. https://preview.redd.it/xukghoe79blh1.png?width=662&format=png&auto=webp&s=04cf5ad1e14043111abefa153dca88a1a17de6a4 This allows one to decide pinning is less likely and more of a gamble against accelerating momentum. If the underlying stock is trading below its Zero-Gamma Level (Gamma Flip), or if total ticker Net GEX< 0, the stock is disqualified for pinning. Now you are correct about the lagging of the GEX as an indicator - its like saying 'oh it rained yesterday' and try and draw a conclusion from it. I mean its not useless but close to useless. Static OI is only published once per morning by the OCC (overnight data). For 0DTE single stocks, midday pinning is heavily driven by intraday 0DTE volume flows. To eliminate the lag, calculate Volume-Weighted Intraday GEX (vGEX) directly from your live broker's API and down load the option chain: vGEX(strike)=(Vol.(call)xgamma(call)-Vol.(put)xgamma(put)x Spot x 100 If GEX(strike) is expanding through the morning dealers are accumulating massive intraday gamma at that specific node and confirming a pin whilst you suffer zero lag. I realise this is mainly useful for the small corner of the world I was working in but the idea is triggered by what you wrote. Any AI tool can write a script to get this information to you in real-time from the API connection of your broker so there is no reason to spend money just like you said. I will run some tests the coming weeks to see how this method of finding the pinning strike compares to the more eyeball test I did before which simply added volume to OI.

UnleavenedTed

Mark my words. He will NEVER leave voluntarily. He almost completed a coup last time and he’s learned from that failure. He’s building a gigantic state of the art bunker on the WH grounds, now has a loyal paramilitary group of bloodthirsty rednecks (ICE) with more funding than the US Marine Corps. If he can’t rig the elections, he will just refuse to transfer power. I really feel that the US experiment ended with the last presidential election, it’s just not official yet. Sort of like when you get addicted to drugs, you never really realize it until you try to quit.

Top_Cranberry_3254

Concur. Even if it kept going up with this manipulation and coordinated WH pumping, it wouldn't even be a good thing-it would just make the bull trap that much worse for the inevitable fall. Also, they;ll keep doing it via "rotations" so certain sectors will rotate crashing based on "planted" news headlines while others that only the insiders know beforehand will irrationally pump like short squeezes. Basically the same as it has been for the last year.

I feel like most countries are just waiting out trump being in the office. I think we are inching closer and these countries will just ride out the waves until he is gone. Probably would be best if have some sort of minimal deal in place and that way, hopefully can get an adult in the WH and make an actually solid deal.

I asked Claude to estimate the impact on the budget if the government were able to revert back to tax policy during the Clinton WH: # Clinton Tax Rates + Eliminating Carried Interest Loophole Adding the elimination of the carried interest loophole to the Clinton-era tax rate reversion would have the following impact: # Carried Interest Revenue Estimates The revenue from closing the carried interest loophole is relatively modest compared to the broader tax changes: **Official Estimates:** * Taxing all carried interest as ordinary income would raise about $15 billion over a decade (around $1.5 billion per year) [Tax Policy Center](https://taxpolicycenter.org/features/2025-tax-cuts-tracker) * Taxing carried interest as regular income could decrease the federal budget deficit by $13 billion over 10 years according to a December 2024 CBO estimate [CNBC](https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/07/trump-carried-interest-loophole.html) * Penn Wharton Budget Model estimates ending the special treatment of carried interest income offsets less than $10 billion over the budget window [Penn Wharton Budget Model](https://budgetmodel.wharton.upenn.edu/issues/2025/2/27/fy2025-house-budget-reconciliation-and-trump-tax-proposals-effects) **Alternative Estimates:** * Treating carried interest earnings as ordinary compensation income could raise between $1.4 billion and $18 billion annually according to some analysts [Ourfinancialsecurity](https://ourfinancialsecurity.org/resources/close-the-carried-interest-loophole-that-is-a-tax-dodge-for-super-rich-private-equity-executives/) * With an estimated $98 billion/year in carried interest income across all asset classes and a 17% tax rate differential, the maximum additional federal revenue would be around $16.7 billion/year [Taxproject](https://taxproject.org/carried-interest/) # Why the Relatively Small Impact? The Congressional Budget Office estimated that taxing carried interest as ordinary income would raise about $12 billion over ten years, which seems small because: [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carried_interest) 1. **Limited Universe of Beneficiaries:** Five large publicly traded private equity firms disclosed $6.3 billion in carried interest revenue in 2020, with most passing through to a relatively small number of individuals [Ourfinancialsecurity](https://ourfinancialsecurity.org/resources/close-the-carried-interest-loophole-that-is-a-tax-dodge-for-super-rich-private-equity-executives/) 2. **Tax Rate Differential:** The difference between the 23.8% rate (20% capital gains plus 3.8% net investment income tax) and the 37% top ordinary income rate is only about 13-14 percentage points [Tax Policy Center](https://taxpolicycenter.org/briefing-book/what-carried-interest-and-should-it-be-taxed-capital-gain) 3. **Small Revenue Relative to Budget:** Given the $6.4 trillion federal budget in FY2024, $16 billion amounts to approximately 0.25% of total outlays [Taxproject](https://taxproject.org/carried-interest/) # Combined Revenue Impact: Clinton Rates + Carried Interest **Total Annual Revenue Increase: Approximately $400-650 billion per year** Breaking this down: * **Clinton-era tax rates reversion:** \~$400-600 billion annually (based on earlier analysis) * **Carried interest elimination:** \~$1.5-15 billion annually (modest addition) **10-Year Impact: $4-6.5 trillion in additional revenue** # Impact on Deficit and Debt With the current FY2025 deficit of $1.8 trillion, this combined policy would: [Congressional Budget Office](https://www.cbo.gov/publication/61307) 1. **Reduce annual deficit by 22-36%** \- bringing it down from $1.8 trillion to potentially $1.2-1.4 trillion 2. **Stabilize debt-to-GDP ratio** \- potentially putting it on a declining path as happened in the Clinton years when debt fell from 47.8% in 1993 to 31.4% in 2001 [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_policy_of_the_Bill_Clinton_administration) 3. **Over 10 years:** Could reduce cumulative deficits by $4-6.5 trillion # The Bottom Line Eliminating the carried interest loophole is **symbolically important** for tax fairness but is a **relatively small revenue raiser** \- adding only 1-3% to the total revenue impact of reverting to Clinton-era rates. The real fiscal heavy lifting comes from: * **Corporate rate increase** (21% → 35%): Hundreds of billions annually * **Top individual rate increase** (current → 39.6%): Major revenue source * **Medicare tax cap repeal**: Significant ongoing revenue The carried interest change is worth doing for equity reasons (stopping private equity executives making eight to nine figure incomes from paying less than middle-class workers), but it won't meaningfully change the national debt trajectory on its own. The Clinton-era tax rates are doing almost all the fiscal work.

Btw, this "strategy" was spelled out in Stephen Miran's paper that got him appointed to several WH offices and then the Fed. In that paper he says it's a "knife-edge" outcome -- meaning that it is almost impossible to achieve -- and requires a set of factors almost completely missing. But in a "trust me, bro" style typical of Wall Streeters Scott Bessent (and Hank Paulson before him) they apparently didn't actually do the reading. They're just vibing.

USA was ordered to go at war against Iran, Epstein's noise got silenced, Israel slowly backed off from it and it's doing its usual thing in Gaza and Lebanon (kill, burn and steal land), while the asset in the WH is left to deal with the war on a daily basis with orders given by phone from Tel Aviv or in person once in a month when Netanyahu goes to Washington to meet his employee.

When does the next war and Hormuz escalation commencement begin?  Any WH insiders here?

thisusername_is_mine

It matters because the main driver for the shift on chinese models is the cost, chinese models offer pretty much the same quality nowadays with a fraction of the cost. Which means 2 things: 1. hyperscalers that USA is building might be an overkill if China is offering almost same quality AI at a fraction of the price doing inference on an infrastructure that is a fraction of US. 2. Less revenue for US companies to invest on the infrastructure expansion. Both 1. and 2. directly impact chip companies growth outlook. As i said, imho this looks like a nightmare for both Anthropic and OpenAI and also for the companies that are investing billions on promises of payement from them. And we're leaving aside here the effect of trade bans on chip by the megagrifter in the WH. Everything points towards a perfect shitstorm that is waiting just for the first small piece to fall.

Claiming "we won, theyir military is gone", and now going back in and getting ballistic missiles fired at bases again. What a loser.

Fauster

I suspect that risk control desks are forcing the hand of many Wall Street desks. When volatility goes up, the come downstairs and tell desks they have less margin, they are too volatile, and they have to sell the volatile stocks in their portfolio. Two: Korea is a retail-driven basket case. Some 3x funds went from 30+ to $1 are a share in the last couple months. I believe that on August 5th, you can still buy 2x and 3x stocks, but you need I think ballpark $20k US in your account, when the average retail trader has probably like $10k. What is the point of buying a 2X fund with less convexity than holding a lot more stock? What is the demographic that is rich enough to hold $20k cash but ignorant enough to use 2x or 3x funds instead of options? That's a thin demographic of stupid and wealthy for retail. ETF funds rule the universe these days. Mutual fund holdings have been declining for a long time. Single stock ETF funds hold a lot. Korea was a record margin. The US was at record margin. August 5th approaches where the 2x and 3x funds will have massive outflows and minimal inflows. The Korean retail traders who were trading on margin have lost money that they cannot hope to get back, captured by the brokerages. Korea needs new foreign inflows to make up for the Korean retail gap to get memory stocks, with historically low PEs, back to fresh highs. Remember how low the market got when Iran kicked off, and how fast it rallied when AI models like Mythos approached general intelligence and Trump said they had a peace deal, which he affirmed another 38 times regarding new peace deals when all the evidence on the ground shows a war with only subtle pauses in intensity. Plus, China is giving drones to Iran, reportedly, meaning Xi is willing to turn the screws on the US. Anyway. If you don't trade on margin, you should be fine, LT, but I don't think the shakeout is done. That's because you don't have someone telling you that you have to sell because of volatility (which soft means stocks are down). I think August 5th is around the date that SNDK reports too, so that's how I am looking at this week. Plus, will Warsh et al. raise? Maybe. Probably not, but maybe. What's the argument that the fossil fuel price increases are temporary that doesn't come from WH operatives?

The SEC mandate doesn't stop at enforcement. Its mandate also encompass drafting new rules or providing guidelines (SAB). I find it hilariously suspicious that they haven't been able to propose any guidelines tailored to hyperscalers ARO (asset retirement obligations) or depreciation, when they've recognized the impact of such guidelines for oil companies. They've been dragging their feet for hyperscalers that literally have hundreds of billions invested in assets that has a lifespan 3-6 years. From my viewpoint, the SEC is counting on the FASB to provide guidelines, while the FASB have little to no incentive to put out stricter guidelines on a profession that are paid by those same companies whom they regulate. What I'm saying is: How the fuck can we believe that they are acting in the interest of shareholders when what they've been really focused on is making quaterly reporting a "choice" and drafting plans to review its core mission. I like how they [worded](https://www.sec.gov/newsroom/press-releases/2026-51-sec-publishes-draft-strategic-plan-public-comment) it by the way: >increase staff engagement with business and industry groups while restoring an enforcement approach that polices violations of established law such as fraud and manipulation rather than expanding regulatory reach through ad hoc enforcement actions. Other objectives include periodic, retrospective reviews of existing rules as well as an assessment of the agency's administrative law framework. Move on, nothing to see here. **No red flags** was hurt in the writting of this comment. They're all living prosper in the WH basement.
