What a Racket!
It might seem more than odd to be sharing a video of a man spending ten minutes scrutinizing a table tennis racket to a ludicrous degree in order to authorize its use in a tournament, but hear me out.

Honestly, watch the video and read the comments; they’re hysterical.
EZ-Guide to Trading
My internal alarm clock got me up at precisely the opening bell, in spite of getting two hours of sleep. I haven’t closed a thing, although I see the market is in “awww, it’s just Trump being moody, this will all pass” mode. In any case, the cycle rules the roost. We’re in the lower-right, folks.
