When I started trading in late 2021, I had about 6 to 7 weeks before the nastiest bear market of 2022 hit. In that short window, I turned $8k into roughly $50k. I thought I had it all figured out. One month into 2022, I lost about 95% of my account. Looking back, I don’t think I would be where I am today without the pain and discomfort. Constantly feeling like the market was out to get me forced me to either quit or evolve. I tell everyone this. You learn almost nothing in a bull market. Anyone can make money when everything is going up. The market we have now will expose every weakness you have as a trader. Your job is to identify those weaknesses, work on them, and improve. Surviving first, and all the money comes after

Liquidity in Japan's government bond market is collapsing: The JGB Liquidity Index jumped to 9.5 points on Tuesday, indicating the worst liquidity conditions on record. This index has DOUBLED over the last 12 months. Conditions in the $7.6 trillion bond market have deteriorated materially since 2022, as bond yields have experienced one of the most dramatic increases in history. This comes as the Bank of Japan has significantly reduced its bond purchases, while Japanese life insurers have sold a record amount. Meanwhile, foreign investors now reflect ~65% of monthly cash bond transactions, up from just 12% in 2009. These investors have much shorter holding periods than traditional domestic buyers, increasing volatility. Japan's bond market is on the edge of a full-blown liquidity crisis.

EU DISCUSSES POTENTIAL U.S. THREAT OVER GREENLAND EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said member states have discussed whether President Donald Trump’s comments about taking over Greenland represent a “real threat” and how the bloc would respond.

A lesson that took me a bit to learn was to move on from stocks that are no longer in play. This past week we saw $BYND go from 1 to 8. If you didn’t catch that impulse move higher or the parabolic short, then it was no longer in play after 10/22. Was there more volatility? Sure, but the big trade was over, time to move on.
