100% this.

I want bitcoin to go to zero and I want all the grifters who pumped this to rubes on the back of moronic fearmongering of monetary policy and promises of generational wealth to be fully invested as it happens. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

A market that detonates one pocket of froth after another in rotating fashion is a pretty health way to take care of excess spec tbh.

Brazen corruption on corruption on corruption of taxpayer money and national security and no one says shit. The media and Congress spent 10x more time discussing Hunter Biden's hog. JFC.

Oil companies are gonna be furious about getting strong armed into a terrible risk/reward set up, but they won’t say shit. OTOH they cried public rivers of heavy sour tears when Biden said mean things about their industry, even though their underlying businesses were thriving.

I’m holding out hope that the mystery broker when he comes on TV is just Santoli in a cheesy mustaches and glasses disguise

As we just teased on the air, the identity of the #MysteryBroker will be revealed tomorrow when he joins me on CNBC's Closing Bell at 3pm Eastern. He'll be offering a fairly provocative market outlook as well. Here's some background on this source, whom I've quoted since 2009.
