Would somebody explain these stock borrow fees on levered ETFs? How come I pay a fee of 63.39% to short ETHD (-2x ETH) with just 4.5% utilization?

The finance profession has lost a great mind with the passing of David Bates at University of Iowa. David was a unique scholar, writing few, but thoughtful and insightful papers on options pricing. His '96 RFS paper is a classic. He inspired many and will be greatly missed. RIP David.

$TSLA has a P/E of 175 with car sales dropping like a boat anchor in major European markets. When will the market send this stock into a tailspin?

Just watched a long interview on CNN with Navarro. It was utter economic gibberish ironically mainly condescendingly appealing to his authority as an economist. I don’t think I could redo it for you it was that nonsensical. Thank God for him he has Lutnick to make him look smart

Hat's off to the members of Congress who beat the market 6-7 times over last year. Particularly impressive are Rep. David Rouzer and Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, who cracked a 140% annual return. This is twice as much as the best hedge fund of all time, RenTech.
