Adding long exposure (through $IWM and $RSP mainly) makes me feel sick, which backs up my belief that the timing is good to add long exposure.

@whatsgoingoninm $HHH is a little different. The fee structure is weird and they have a weirder collection of assets, not just a bunch of publically listed stocks anyone can buy. Though no capital returns. Still not a great structure but not as egregious as PSH.

@SayNoToTrading @YehiaElgohary Would need to do a stock split, $1000 share price ruins a price-weighted index. $TXN has to get in on one of these Dow additions eventually.

You can't find the Switch Two Zelda Edition anywhere. It is sold out at GameStop $GME. This 40th Anniversary game for Ocarina of Time is going to sell so much hardware and accessories. And then you have GTA 6 coming out too. Insiders at GameStop are loading up on shares like crazy. They see internal sales and how much money they are about to print.
