Welcome to the Great Dealmaking Reset.
As of 18:07 CDT on Friday, 10/15
$ETH is trading at $3,854.37 and climbing, $BTC is trading at $61,415.87 and climbing.
The bulls are having a field day (for now)!
The past few weeks have been really spooky.
Uncertainty has seemed to loom over every aspect of our lives, including the stock market. Cathie Wood spoke about inflation concerns earlier this month and her belief that we will continue to see marked inflation in some public goods.
But today, Wall Street's biggest investment bank (Goldman Sachs) reported exceptional profits ($5.28 billion) and crazy M&A activity and IPOs. All of the major exchanges (e.g. S&P 500, Dow Jones, Nasdaq, etc.) are still at all-time-highs during these unprecedented times.
Last night on Mad Money, Jim Cramer shared that optimism has become an endangered commodity in the market.
I wholeheartedly agree, optimism, to me, is like faith. If I don't have faith, then I don't have life.
It doesn't matter how low I fall or how high I get, my insatiable curiosity will be with me and it will fuel my boundless optimism.
During this time of reset, we are all asking questions and searching (what seems endlessly) for answers. We are boundary-less, truly, and have access to, who I like to refer to as, interesting screen people.
Well, to some of you reading this, I may be an interesting screen person in your realm.
I want to invite you to engage with me on the screen in the next few days.
Will you accept my invitation?!
Your friend,
La Juana or LJ
