Dumping treasuries is figurative. The real action for China is to stop running a trade surplus and start importing and consuming more physical goods. This is widely claimed as a really desirable situation. It will be interesting to see if t

You may have a valid point but on a technical note TikTok does not operate in China either because they don't conform with China's content censorship policy.

Since on average everyone gets the market return someone must be underperforming the market in order for you to be overperforming.

Your point 3, a la Graham-Dodd, is how Buffett started. But later he realized that did not scale when you own businesses forever instead of trading them. Buying a whole dollar for 50 cents is great if you can quickly sell it for 75. Not so

So long as the top tier universities are not expanding enrollments I fail to see what real change would come from more applications. Maybe they will get a bit more diverse. The lower tier schools will get their enrollment so long as the tot

The flimsiness of one's understanding tends to manifest as false "lemmas", which can't really be proved because one forgot certain conditions that are typically implicit with human understanding but must be made explicit

Actually there isn't much to understanding the tactics unless you want to use them similarly, just like you wouldn't bother looking into what "auto" has done. For understanding math it is a lot more important to understa

Epidemiologists have been worried about corona viruses ever since the appearance of SARS and MERS. If Covid-19 manages to innoculate the globe against ACE2 binding spike proteins the outcome is likely a lot better than many have feared. The

The point I was responding to was whether the western audience is well served if the media only focus on the negative side of the China story. It is not the same as the local paper's focus on crimes and tragedies. My main concern is th

Focusing on the negatives of your own country is fine because the readers have the ability to judge for themselves. Focusing only on the negatives of a foreign country is not unless the goal is to agitate the populace for conflict and war.

No they are exposed to you as a credit risk. They trust you that you intend to transfer the money in good faith. As long as the transfer is complete at no point they make a loan to you because trade settles at T+2, i.e. cash is not required

This is not specific to margin accounts and is not what is meant by margin. Cash account with any broker (that I know of) would also give you the same feature -- that is you have access to the cash for trading before the transfer is complet

I don't get how this hurts the elites or whoever else apathetic to the WSB crowds. Margin loans are collateralized. Wall street firms are making record trade profits (or at least much better than main street banks). Like lottery this c

Note it is at least 90%. Case number is likely too low to give a tighter estimate with high enough confidence. That is, even if no one vaccinated is infected they still can't claim a much higher effectiveness with confidence as there a

I wish antivirals are trialed with a different end point: reduction in viral load. This can likely be done definitively and a lot faster as well. Deaths caused by ARDS may be triggered by a virus but it doesn't follow that clearing the

The last point I made is the moral argument "in theory private companies compete against each other but government has a monopoly on legalized violence." Government must be constrained because you can't get away from it. Now
