RT @DimitryNakhla: "Real risk and perceived risk are two different things. People perceive risk to be high when prices are low, and they perceive risk to be low when prices are high. That is the psychologoical problem that people have."

— Bill Miller 🗣️

This quote highlights a crucial aspect of investing: the disconnect between real risk and perceived risk. It's fascinating to see how market sentiment can flip on its head, with investors becoming cautious when prices are low and eager to buy when prices are high. This psychological phenomenon can lead to missed opportunities and costly mistakes

By understanding this, you can cultivate a contrarian mindset, seeking value when others see risk and exercising caution when others are reckless. It's a timeless lesson that helps investors navigate the markets with clarity and confidence

Most of the stock market is getting crushed, but defense stocks are rising.

We have reported on several purchases of these stocks by politicians over the last year.

Some of them even sit on the committees that oversee defense spending.

An interesting observation:

“Since 2023 (at least), speculators borrowed money in Japan at near-zero interest rates. They converted their borrowed yen into dollars, and bought the Nasdaq 100. That drove the yen further down and the Nasdaq 100 further up. This "carry trade" has been unraveling in recent weeks…as the yen continued to soar in response to the Bank of Japan's recent tightening moves.”
