In TrackRecord’s Incubation Programme, we do a bi-weekly risk call with our students, exploring trade ideas and discuss possible themes going forward. Image
In the process, our CIO and Programme Mentor, Phan Vee Leung, provides feedback on areas that the students can work on as they present their thought processes.

Here’s one student’s takeaway from the discussion:
"One of the biggest reminders that I got served is that we have to respect the price action even if our theme is right. Think one of our human tendencies (or weaknesses, myself included) is we always want to prove we are right. In trading, this can be a dangerous behaviour.
This leads me to think of a principle from Ray Dalio-"Open-mindedness". Paraphasing his words from a video I am sharing, "Just because an opinion or idea exists in your head, does not mean it is the right one..
We need to stress test it", which is exactly what Vee has been advocating."

4 NOTABLE LEGAL OPINIONS OF U.S. SUPREME COURT PICK: AMY CONEY BARRETT

This is important because Amy Coney Barrett will sit on the Supreme Court for decades, long after Trump is gone and shaping constitutional policies that will define America and what it stands for.
Amy Coney Barrett’s induction will tilt the Supreme Court towards a Conservative majority, hence her decisions will carry more weight than usual as it will more often than not be a “swing vote”.
As a result, the potential for political and social divide just ratcheted higher as Democrat voters will try to neutralize the skew in the Supreme Court, making a politically charged election a certainty. This might translate to extreme volatility in markets.

1/The death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg less than two months before the presidential election tosses one more lit match into the tinderbox of national politics in 2020:
2/It will surely inflame a deeply polarised country already riven by a deadly pandemic, a steep economic downturn, and civil unrest in its major cities.

In Washington, the vacancy fight could ratchet up tensions to a level unseen even in the tumultuous Trump era.
3/He could also become the first president since Richard Nixon to install three justices on the high court in a single four-year term.

A successful GOP effort to replace Ginsburg with a conservative before or immediately after a Democratic victory will almost certainly lead to..

2/It refers to the simultaneous expiration of single-stock options, single-stock futures, and stock-index options and stock-index futures which are settled at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
3/Options volumes tend to be particularly elevated during quad-witching periods, which may also account for some of the choppiness anecdotally associated with September as the worst-performing month (for stock markets).
