Ok so here's the thing, that few people are talking about, well they are. But saying costs for American consumers will go up, isn't really helpful, so let me break it down. First the easy one... coffee. America can't grow coffee it's just not possible to grow coffee there. So if America imposes say 25% tariffs on brasil for eg, guess what?

Going forward, you will be paying around 300 bucks more a year... just to get a week day coffee fix. Yes I'm oversimplifying, but that's just a cup of coffee people! Start looking at everything else That the USA can't physically produce due to climate, t

I am not convinced to lock my cash on any positions now. I see more downside. And dead cat bounces. What if I miss the boat? Yes, that is perfectly fine. I will pass FOMO. Anyway I am an option writer. I make 90% of money using options. So, I don't care about long term or DCA. I thrive in bull option markets, so yeah, looking forward to it. Typically, 5-10% monthly returns in a bearish market, and 10-20% in bullish. However, I will open positions on $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ $CyberArk(CYBR)$$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ if they go below 85, 290, 200 respectively.

With Donald Trump coming to town, even he tells you what he wants, the market is still quietly hoping he will do otherwise. That adds to the volatility of TLT, and therefore resulting in great fluctuations in TMF. That's why I don't mind not averaging down quickly. I don't like to average down. I prefer to average up! Why? That means at least I am winning... I will&n
