The Rokslide Stock Traders Thread

Just read RIOT has signed a deal to lease their data center capacity to AMD. You think they may be looking for more steady guaranteed return from AI than the roller coaster of mining BTC?
It's up 11+% today on the news. Was thinking about picking up some MARA for the potential they might do something similar in the near future. Anyone think this is a good idea? MARA is up 6% today also & currently below their 50 & 200 day MA.
 
Japanese bond yields are probably a bigger concern….

I'd say the greater concern in this scenario is the stability of the dollar as the reserve currency.
And so it begins: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...-to-exit-us-treasuries?embedded-checkout=true

I think you guys are both right. Confidence in USD as a reserve currency is dropping. If the tariffs stuff continues I believe nations holding US treasuries will start leaving in mass. Which I believe will cause mass printing.

On another note I saw an article talking about buy now pay later for rent. I know I don’t need to explain how bad that is. Just crazy to think a person could do that for rent.

"Europeans hold roughly $10 trillion in US assets: around $6 trillion in US equities and roughly $4 trillion in Treasuries and other bonds," observed Ipek Ozkardeskaya, senior analyst at Swissquote. "Selling those assets would pull the rug from under US markets."

“But asked by reporters at the Davos World Economic Forum whether the US was preparing for such a scenario, Bessent said that it "defies any logic".

Calling the US Treasury market "the best-performing market in the world" and the "most liquid" debt market, he said he expected Europeans to hold on to their exposure, not offload it.

"There's a completely false narrative there," he said.”

Does Bessent’s position sound incredibly naive to anyone else? leaning into people not doing “logic defying” actions while his boss is threatening 25% tariffs on allies that don’t get on board with the seizure of a sovereign nation that the US already benefits from in a manner that basically doesn’t change with “ownership” is hardly setting precedent for a logical sequence of events.
