The Verticals

It’s become tiresome to type these words, but it was yet another lifetime high today across the board. I am pleased and very proud to report that my 100% short portfolio defied this nonsense and still made gains on the day. This is especially heartening since there are a number of stocks which are {check notes) absolutely batshit insane.

Thank you for your attention to this splatter.
