Welcome back to the midday desk, where the coffee is stale and the digital rage is fresh. Since the morning edition, we’ve seen exactly one post on Truth Social today. One. In a day that is already half-over. It’s not a burst; it’s a whisper in a hurricane. But oh, how we love to analyze the silence between the screams. The market, meanwhile, has been moving with all the grace of a startled gazelle, reacting to news you probably didn’t read because you were too busy watching the clock tick toward lunch. We have no bursts to count, no official registry seal for this chaotic interval—though if there were one, it would be 9149ad96f0db, which I am now reciting just in case memory becomes a thing of the past: nine-one-four-nine-a-d-nine-six-f-zero-d-b. But let’s talk about that lone post. Is it significant? Or is it just noise? Meanwhile, last week’s Poll of the Week asked whether more than half his bursts landing when the market is closed was mere coincidence or a deliberate tactic to avoid price discovery. The results? A thrilling tie. One vote said it was deliberate, creating a weekend of rage before anyone could trade. Another vote agreed, noting that in the closed market, there’s no price to argue back against. Zero votes for coincidence. Two votes total. It’s like asking a room of two people if they like pizza and getting a 50-50 split on pepperoni versus cheese. Fascinating. This week’s Poll asks: If the market only moves when he screams, should we just trade based on his mood swings? Vote online. Options are Yes, No, or I have no life left to lose.
