I have been asked to comment on Austin Private Wealth Management $DJT controversy.

The company has put out statement denying put position citing third party filing error.

They are a registered investment advisor with over 1,200 clients with assets under management of $1 billion. They are fee based only so my guess is the revenues for the whole firm are $10 million assuming standard 1% fee. Each portfolio for their clients is different. This is not a hedge fund.

Bottom line: the company denies it and they are not structured to pool bets like a hedge fund might.

This looks like a typical independent RIA to me. I don’t think there is anything here.

Additionally the filing on July 12 was for positions as of 6/28 so not a put position established on July 12 as many have suggested.

🚨🚨 Report: The Great Federal Centralization

1)We are all familiar with Federal Debt to GDP rising from 60% to 120% since 09 banking crisis.

However, an unnoticed trend of State Debt declining from 33% of total public debt in 09 to 10% today has resulted in federal power grab.

2) About 40% of a state's annual budget now comes from the Feds resulting in:
✅Reduced competition for private capital amongst states but increased competition for federal funding
✅Enhanced chances of corruption as decision making moves from the people to the DC swamp

🚨🚨For every $1 dollar they made it cost the US economy $13 dollars.

🚨🚨Absence rate & Lost Worktime rate analysis

Conclusion: Taken in conjunction with the increase in disability rates since early 2021, which we’ve shown previously, we believe that the most likely cause for the rise in both was due to the Covid 19 vaccines In 2022 the absence rate was 11 sigma above trend & the worktime lost rate in 2022 was 13 sigma from trend.

This is a very strong signal.

My 2 cents on #SVB

US long Bonds, the dollar & stocks we’re setting up over a month ago hence my tweet. This is the beginning of a deflationary cycle. SVB just happens to be the headline. M2 y/y growth went negative in November.

Fed response will cause relief near term but 👇 over time this will just continue to get worse. I favor the boiling frog scenario as risk assets reprice lower. Rolling three month T-bills through treasury direct is not a bad idea for now. Under $100k don’t worry about your bank. I think short term interest rates near peak. 👇

Bill Ackman made billions scarring the crap out of folks during Covid lockdowns. He covered shortly after talking his book near the lows.

Just saying ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Look I am long term bearish but I just don’t think freaking people out is helpful. Honestly the market could rally in the short term. This live London betting market is usually directionally right however Monday morning is a long way off and things could change.

🚨🚨Our anaysis of a peer reviewed paper on Serious Adverse Events in the mRNA Clinical Trials doi.org/10.1016/j.vacc…
reveals the following conclusions:
✅Our results provide a stronger case for establishing a causal relationship between disabilities and the Covid-19 vaccines. The time series of SAEs that were computed based on the rates estimated during the mRNA clinical trials are shown to be of the same magnitude as the rate of increase in disability rates in the 16-64 Civilian Labor Force.

Aegon Insurance Q4 puzzling questions that perhaps an intrepid journalist should pursue:

During quarter they did a $1.4 billion reinsurance deal with Wilton Re to offset larger policies in US due their increased mortality expectations in 2022. TransAmerica is owned by Aegon ImageImage In the earnings transcript an exchange between CFO & Mr Huttner is illuminating: Basically as I read it they are doing an unfavorable deal to reduce volatility…obviously “volatility” is code for higher in their mind.

Question to CFO: “Given the vaccines & Omicron why do this?” Image

I have an idea for a dystopian movie:

The background begins in 2020: a virus that mimics the flu sweeps across the globe.Some believe it’s a man made bioweapon to provide cover for global economic collapse from an unsustainable debt load & rising wealth inequality. The majority Believe their governments and dutifully obey orders to shelter in place while supply chains dissolve, they lose jobs or small businesses and eventually the middle class is wiped out. Inexplicably large big box businesses are allowed to operate and folks are allowed to shop there
