Every morning I wake up, splash water on my face, change into a fresh t-shirt and depending where I am, I fire up my desktop Mac, my Macbook or my iPhone to check the trending streams on Stocktwits. For the last 90 days, every time I do that I am shocked by some huge move …

Even The French Are Making Money….Investing is Facile!
Every day I make references to the wild, silly, exciting and reckless behavior in the markets. Every day someone will chime in to my stream with ‘this is the top‘! I have been that person in the past. Thank goodness I have not been that person in this boom (started in March 2009). Yes, I …
Momentum Monday – Melt Ups and Melt Downs…
Happy Monday… What a time to be alive gambling, speculating and investing. Anything goes! This weekend I watched a bunch of my buddies in their 50’s live betting sports from three different apps. Elon Musk was deciding on how to pay $20 billion in taxes on Twitter. Thank goodness we are focused on ‘payment for …

Phoenix Is Booming
The weather is perfect right now in Phoenix. There is something special about a sunny and warm November day that reminds me how lucky I am to get out of Phoenix for the summer and how great Phoenix is for winters. Coming back from New York this weekend I landed at the new Terminal 3 …
Never Ever Ever a Better Time To Start A Company …Angel List Stack
In the early 1990’s when I started my first software company (MicroBase), it would take a few weeks for the phone company to show up at your office. Getting a bank account was a brutal process and that was just for paper checks. We sold software in packaged boxes through retailers like Egghead that went bankrupt …
