Gyroscopic Investing

frugal, flooding the forum with AI text isn't particularly helpful. Please give us your thoughts/concerns rather than just pasting from somewhere else.

Vinny, you'll get the joke after about 2 seconds. No need to go into video-watching (or not-watching) mode.

It's not that kind of video, Vinny. Just pull it up.

I'm not sure it's terribly helpful to paste the output of an LLM here.

But I have a bias in that I'm one of those "Israel can do no wrong" people. Wow. Even I can’t say that. 😬 After what has been done to the Jewish people not in in World War II but before and after .. I totally support their "Never again." Greatly admire their extreme toughness in...

What was that?

1. Why is that never brought up? Prange is well-known. Cannot answer that. I was well-documented in the book. It was all new to me at the time that I read it. But that does not conform with this, which states early 1941. https://www.perplexity.ai/search/according-to-gordon-prange-whe-LhfIgMs3QOWBd8...

I've never heard the 10 years figure either. Somewhere, probably this forum, I heard a theory that the U.S. knew the Pearl Harbor attack was coming. That's not impossible, but I just put it aside and never really took it seriously or thought about it again. Or at least, knew it might be coming. May...

Hello! I'm new on the forum. I just registered because I'm looking for informations to invest in cryptocurrencies. Thanks! Can you add any more details to make your story more believable? I discovered cryptocurrencies years ago but I was not interested to invest in them. I have some friends which b...

I agree. Obviously, Pearl Harbor has a tainted reputation, as it should. The U.S. was not a belligerent and anyway, was there anything particularly clever about it? I doubt many deaths occurred from the drone strike on Russia’s grounded fleet of bombers. Ukraine brought these drones in to Russia, l...

Leverage and algorithmic trading now prevail in the majority of retail trading. High-frequency and algorithmic trading have been approximated to account for 40-70% of US equity volume traded. Such strategies are primarily executed by institutions through advanced, automated platforms, frequently at...

What you say makes sense but it seems that a municipal default is quite rare? Perhaps, but a default of an entity like the United States government has never happened. It might be impossible in theory. I should clarify that the United States have defaulted before, but not when using a system of fia...

"Defy" I believe is the wrong word here; what they seem to be saying is that states will be keeping their pristine credit rating even as the federal government does not. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/us-states-likely-defy-us-163315923.html Does that really make a lot of sense, that the s...

Okay, I've determined that we've been under a distributed "Slow Loris" attack. Having deployed specific countermeasures to that, I should no longer need to be playing whack-a-mole with IP addresses.

No idea why anybody would want to shut down this forum, though.

Mountaineer, I'm pretty sure that's a son of man, not the son of man.

There have been a lot of robotic user registrations lately. 497 of 3,352 total accounts were registered in the past week. These accounts don't seem to be spamming the forum. The only effect seems to be that I'm getting a fair number of email bounces from registration confirmation emails. The email a...

Some men just want to watch the world burn.

Hi folks,

Sorry about the recent availability issues. It looks like we're receiving a DOS attack from Singapore, Russia, and Vietnam. I've blocked a bunch of IP addresses.

Well if nothing else, I am thankful Trump has inspired me to read Bastiat. ;D <snip> There is no country in the world where the law is kept more within its proper domain: the protection of every person's liberty and property. As a consequence of this, there appears to be no country in the world whe...

TLT is up, but not by a whole lot. Gold seems to be down. How is All Weather up?

Doesn’t anyone think that Jeffrey Goldberg “spilling the beans”, perhaps to get a big story for the Trump haters, is a national security issue, possibly helping the enemy? I do agree that Waltz inadvertently (?) adding him to the chat was a huge error. I missed this before. I think he was performin...
