On A Mission
⚡️EVERYONE KNOWS ABOUT THE ENERGY SUPERCYCLE… But their attention is on generation when they should be focused on delivery! The US needs 150GW+ of new grid capacity by 2030. That’s roughly 12% of the entire existing fleet, added in 3.5 years, onto infrastructure built in the 1950s. Transformer lead times have stretched from 30 months to 5 years. Electrical equipment is under 10% of a data center’s build cost but the entire reason hyperscalers can’t get connected $GEV walked into Q2 with a $176B backlog $ETN raised guidance and ripped 13% while the rest of the group sold off $PWR posted a record $9.56B quarter One layer down, the real chokepoint is grain-oriented electrical steel (GOES) & it’s close to a single-producer market! ⚠️Worth flagging the other side: only about 5GW of the 12GW in announced 2026 data center capacity is under construction. If announcements don’t convert to real load, this decompresses fast & ugly! Next real test comes Oct 29th, when $PWR reports Q3 👇Inside the FREE full piece: 3 tiers, the “Wave One vs Wave Two” framework, 6 thesis breakers and the catalyst calendar through November. mastermobx.substack.com/p/mo…

Are we all buying $AMD now that @SemiAnalysis_ came out with another bs hit piece? Just take a look at their hit on $NVDA from a couple days ago….look how that turned out🤣
BREAKING NEWS: AMD middle managers are wasting over 20+ engineers’ time trying to grow their fiefdoms & get promotions on a useless side project called their “ATOM Inference Engine,” instead of spending that effort on inference engines that actual customers like Meta/xAI actually use, such as SGLang/vLLM. Dozens of AMD engineers, including principal engineers and AMD Fellows, have reached out to us privately about how, due to office politics and backing from a subset of middle managers at AMD, they are prevented from talking internally about their concerns over middle management wasting 20+ full-time engineers’ time on a side project with basically no customers. The engineers on this side project are 10x engineers and instead should be working on customer engines like vLLM/SGLang. The middle managers will try to cope by referencing the singular customer that uses it in prod, Alibaba on Qwen, but when digging deeper, it is just a side-business enterprise unit deploying ATOM in a limited capacity instead of the main Qwen business unit. It is incredibly disrespectful to AMD engineers for AMD management to pull resources & limited internal GPU R&D dev clusters away from engineers supporting customers on production engines like vLLM/SGLang to spend them on growing their fiefdoms & playing office politics.

Hmmm now why would a hedge fund that has bought retail trading data from Robinhood be announcing something like this? 🤔🤔🤔 I’m sure Citadell just wants to see us all make money because they care about us right.…right?

I know what kills every position I own before I buy it. Most people find out on the way down and call it a surprise. Write down what has to break. If it doesn’t break, you’re not allowed to sell. A better bet is the only exception. Macro doesn’t get a pass. It’s an input. Rates, wars, oil. If it changes the cash flows, that’s a break. If it just changes the mood, that’s a sale you’ll regret.

Let’s get this on record, on behalf of ALL American citizens… ANY Senator, or Congress member that votes IN FAVOR of NDAA Section 219, is actually party to literal TREASON and should be tried as such.

The two most common mistakes I keep seeing: 1. Not averaging up to protect a pretty %. Example: Current share price: $30 - 10 shares @ $10 avg cost = $300 value, +$200 profit (+200%) - 15 shares @ $12 avg cost = $450 value, +$270 profit (+150%) Which would you rather? 2. Thinking your entry price matters. You wake up tomorrow with amnesia and discover you own a stock trading at $30. You have two choices: keep the share worth $30 or sell it and take the $30 cash. Whether you originally paid $10 or $50 changes neither choice. It doesn’t change today’s value, the future upside or what else you could do with the money. It only changes the P&L number on your screen. Until you understand these two mistakes, you’re relying on luck.

I’m sort of glad I learned this early on in my trading journey. Started about 10 years ago. First few years I definitely didn’t take it seriously enough and was basically a degenerate in a casino. Got to a point where I would be okay with cutting my trading week short when I was up or down bad. Saw some nice windfalls but eventually went on a bad cold streak…to the point I “gave up” trading completely for nearly 2 years. I have a true passion for the markets and feel called to it for reasons other than just money/freedom. Eventually came back and switched markets but still cut weeks short and step away for extended periods when I feel I’m mentally off my game. Don’t feel a need to always be trading or looking at the charts. It really does help when you have other hobbies you enjoy doing that can keep your mind off things and a sense of fulfillment/purpose.
Replying to @AdamWTrades
Better off literally taking weeks off than to just force dialing in. I said before… you’re drowning in a combination of cortisol and dopamine. I recognize it a mile away because I was once the same way. I started trading at 19, I’m 44 now. Most people never make it this far. I’ve seen thousands of people burn out and wind up way worse off trying to keep pushing thru. There is no brute force in trading since it’s you versus you. The harder you battle, the more damage you inflict upon yourself.
