“Q3 Results Secured”


On October 11, I noted that “…I have booked all of my Tesla (TSLAQ – USA) Jan 2019 250/175 put spreads after owning them for almost a year, at a reference price of $255 compared to a reference price of $320 when I first wrote about them.

Tesla Learns About Reflexivity


Before George Soros focused his energies on undermining Western Society, he wrote a book detailing his theory of reflexivity.
