Dear Traders, I am excited to be back from an incredible and challenging expedition to Cho Oyu. After few weeks of cold weather and snow, I am loving the heat in Dubai now.

Dear Traders, I’m heading back to Nepal and Tibet to take on the sixth-highest peak in the world—Cho Oyu, standing tall at 8,188 meters (26,864 feet)! This climb is going to push me beyond my limits, right into the “death zone” (over 8,000 meters/26,247 feet), where every step is a fight. It’s exactly why I … Read more
Dear Traders The week back after Labor Day is terrible for stocks — Wake me up when September ends, it’s a common sentiment among investors and seems apparently justified by the post-Labor Day trading so far. This week has been truly dreadful for stocks. September is historically the worst month for the US stock market, … Read more

The sunrises are magical, where you can’t … Read more
