Headlines move markets.
Positioning determines who profits.

A single Trump post can move oil 4% in a session. What happens next — whether it holds, who absorbs it, where capital flows over the following 48 hours — is decided by structure, not narrative. Every piece maps that structure: the positioning, the liquidity constraints, and the cross-asset flows that separate the moves worth trading from the ones that reverse. Forward edge, not hindsight.

The AI Bubble Everyone Keeps Warning You About Doesn't Look Like What You Think
Both camps are interrogating the price. Neither is interrogating the pool the price is drawn from — and that's where the real 2026 regime lives.

The thesis is half the work.
This is the other half.

Most research stops at the idea. Members also get the live book — the trades and ideas I'm actually holding right now, each with the reasoning, the level that breaks the thesis, and an honest note on how it's playing out. The difference between reading a view and watching it carry risk.

Live Positions

A small, replicable book — long, short, and the ideas I'm deliberately waiting on. Conviction levels, entry logic, and the invalidation that would take me out. Updated weekly; kept current rather than cluttered.

  • Every position carries a thesis and the level that proves it wrong
  • Waiting is a position too — the setups I'm not in yet, and why
  • A scorecard of how recent calls actually resolved
