Riley Cook (‘28, IL) worked the mid- to upper-70s on the FB early showing good ASR & feel to replicate the AA. Has a good 11-5 shaped CB (clip) in the mix working the upper-60s. @PG_Illinois @TopTierNorth #BattleForTheMW
Great start to bracket play going 2-2 with key hit to extend big @TopTierNorth rally!
Riley Cook (‘28, IL) added 2 hits on the day, with a clean stroke. Good feel for the barrel w/ an athletic stroke. Lean frame w/ some projection throughout. TOTO traits w/ bat-to-ball skills. @PG_Illinois @TopTierIA #BattleForTheMW

This is what McElligott flagged in his June 25th note Apparently Nomura's model triggered its largest buy signal in its ~21 year history, projecting $114B of US eq's to buy over the 1-month forward period. The 9 prior signals didn't come close to the magnitude of the size here-…
Expect a sharp decline in $SPX 3-month realized volatility this week as the “Liberation Day” returns roll out of the sample data. All else equal, this should trigger systematic buying from Vol-targeting strategies and create a mechanical tailwind for the equity market.

Trying to think through the implications of this. Asymmetric/ irregular warfare just became way more viable. Traditional organized militaries are toast.

The market’s been flailing like a toddler with a sugar crash. That’s your reminder to tighten up your cash flow. One day it’s green across the board. Next day? Tech is tanking, yields are up, and everyone’s whispering “recession” again. This kind of volatility messes with…
I view Trump from an Options lens. One could argue that many of the policies from both sides of the aisle have frog-boiled us into a “low vol” death spiral, like a low vol blue-chip stock with slow and steady erosion of its various moats due to upstarts. In that scenario, one…
