This won't be applied.

They'll realize in Senate or before 2028 how impossible and self destructive that is. I still have enough faith in our European leader to believe that.

Call me a dreamer.

BREAKING: Netherlandsโ€™ House of Representatives has approved a 36% tax on unrealized capital gains.

Bill Ackman on Psychology of Investing ๐Ÿง 

โ€œYou have to get excited when things get cheaper and get concerned when things get more expensiveโ€ฆ Stocks can trade at any price in the short term. If you know what a business is worth and understand it extremely well, volatility bothers you much lessโ€ฆ

Itโ€™s a combination of being personally secure and knowing what you own. Over time, you build callusesโ€ฆ Iโ€™m a pretty emotional person โ€” but not in investing.โ€
