Big day for stocks. The S&P 500 closed at record highs. It added ~$1 Trillion of market cap after the Fed cut interest rates by 0.50% yesterday. We're closing in on a 20% gain for the year.
Big week for interest rates: 1. The Federal Reserve is expected to cut interest rates this week for the first time since Covid. 2. Elizabeth Warren and US Senators sent Jerome Powell a letter asking the Fed to cut interest rates by 0.75% this week. 3. BlackRock says the…

Curious to see how accurate these markets will be compared to traditional polls.
Kalshi just legalized trading on elections in the U.S. For the first time in 100 years, Americans will have access to legal election markets at scale. Historic moment for financial markets.
4. Prompts for Building confidence with Mock interview AI Agents: a) "Can you simulate a mock job interview for [job title], asking a mix of behavioral and technical questions." b) "Simulate a challenging interview scenario where the interviewer is unresponsive or critical."…
The S&P 500 has erased $1.8 Trillion in the first week of September. It's the market's worst week all year. @Kalshi now predicts a 79% chance of a 0.25% rate cut in September. And a 32% chance of a rate cut over 0.25%. How much do you think the Fed drops interest rates?
The middle class use their time to make money. The wealthy use their money to make more money. And their money to buy back time.
VanEck has $100 Billion in assets under management and has released its 2050 Bitcoin price predictions: $52,386,207 Best case $2,910,345 Base case $130,314 Worst case Thoughts?
Many people say $100,000 isn’t a lot of money. But 67% of American households make less than $100,000 a year. $100,000 may not have the same purchasing power it did 10 years ago, but it’s still a lot of money for millions.
Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway $BRK.B just hit a $1 trillion market cap but still has a website that looks like it's from 1990.

The S&P 500 is now 1% away from all-time highs. And up 10% from the panic lows two weeks ago. It will attempt to go for 9 straight green days today, its longest winning streak since 2004.
6. Ask them to justify: Put the burden of proof on them to substantiate. “Can you walk me through your methodology for arriving at that number?"
4. Odd numbers and precise figures: Odd numbers and unusual precision feel more carefully calculated. Proposing $49,431 seems more grounded than $50,000.
3. Always ask for more: Ask for more than you think you can get. This gives you room to compromise while still ending up with what you want. Make a first offer that resets their sense of what's acceptable. Then, "concede" toward your actual goal.
2. The 6 P's: Proper Prior Preparation Prevents Poor Performance. Master your facts and leverage points to negotiate effectively vs. making hurried concessions.
1. The power of silence and pauses: Awkward silences create pressure. After making an offer, stop talking and wait for the other side to respond. Silence prompts the other side to fill the void, sometimes making concessions.
JUST IN: Gold hits record-high and hits $2,500 for the first time in history. Year-to-date, Gold is up +21%, its strongest year since 2020. Why? Interest rate cut expectations.
