Dear Traders, Good day. It’s CPI Day. This morning, the market gapped up significantly following the release of the Consumer Price Index figures for the past month. The US inflation rate (YoY) for March 2022 came in at 8.5% vs. the 8.4% that had been estimated. February 2022’s inflation rate was 7.9% over February 2021. […]

I can report that I am happy. It’s been an incredible experience. Thank you for all of your heartwarming messages and emails. […]
Dear Traders, I’ll begin with a quick update on Andrew’s progress in the Marathon des Sables in Morocco. Yesterday, Andrew completed the longest of the six segments in the race. He began at 8:20am local time and finished the 84.8-km (52.7-mile) leg at 11:26pm. I can’t even imagine how exhausted he is today, but at […]
Dear Traders, Norm here for Andrew, as our fearless and possibly crazy leader is in Morocco participating in the Marathon des Sables, a six day 251km (156 mile) ultramarathon through the Sahara Desert. It is often referred to as the toughest foot race on earth. While I don’t know why anybody would want to put […]
Dear Traders, I’m writing this email to you as I fly from Paris to Morocco to participate in what is possibly the hardest run of my life. Unfortunately, I’ll be away from trading for a few days, but I know that the strong BBT mod team will do a great job in the chatroom in […]
Dear Traders, I’m writing this to you from the airport, beginning my journey to Morocco to run in one of the hardest races I’ve ever been a part of.

Dear Traders, Happy Friday! John and I posted our first ever recap together. I traded the Chinese stocks BABA and NIO, and John traded MRNA and RIVN. You can watch our recap here. The interesting part about our recap is that I could have almost perfectly guessed how John traded without seeing his trades because […]
Dear Traders, Happy Fed meeting and interest rate hike day! The market has moved quite high as I am writing this newsletter, and many of us executed some very nice trades on BABA.

Dear Traders, The Hang Seng China Enterprises Index, which tracks Chinese shares listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, has collapsed for two consecutive days now. Today, in its most volatile trading day ever, it sank 6.6%. This meltdown is primarily due to China’s policy clampdown under the “common prosperity” mantra, more cities being locked […]
Dear Traders, Welcome to another day of market volatility. EU stocks gained overnight, but Chinese and Hong Kong stocks (such as BABA and JD) sold off heavily with a new wave of lockdowns in China. Also impacted were companies (like AAPL) which have significant Chinese exposure. Brian and I traded NIO short at the Open, […]
Dear Traders, The Chinese meltdown continues as I am writing this newsletter. With BABA and JD collapsing in the US markets, other Chinese companies as well as American companies with huge exposure in China, such as Apple, are also under pressure. Nevertheless, volatility is excellent news for traders. Today, I traded BABA for a nice […]

Dear Traders, The dark shadow of war is now over Eastern Europe. Russian forces are continuing their attacks with the fighting getting closer and closer to the capital, Kyiv. Ukraine’s military has successfully stopped Russia from achieving its goals on the first day of the assault. The U.S., Europe, and other countries announced new sanctions […]
Dear Traders, I finally managed to trade today after a 48-hour flight down to Patagonia. I am now in the city of Ushuaia, Argentina, one of the most southern inhabited regions of our planet, some 800 miles (1,300 km) north of the Antarctic Circle. The Antarctic Peninsula itself is only some 620 miles (1,000 km) […]
