Michael Burry is buying a lot of Chinese company stocks like Bidu and BABA. Not the I-fund, but non US companies.

I took a small position in the I Fund at 43.87.
I'm in it for the long hall or until I'm tired of getting punched in the face. Of course, I never sell a loss, and I can take a punch. And did I mention, it's a small position.

That could be a great move if this UUP dollar chart can fall below its 20-day EMA. There's a bunch of open gaps down below to be filled.

These are mostly search engines, right? So they won't be affected too much by Trump's proposed tariffs?

Alibaba (BABA) is actually China's version of Amazon.

Plus WMT. everything these 3 sell will be affected by tariffs.

 

[bmneveu]

Interesting timing on this then. Maybe he sees value there that will more than offset the tariffs.

The G Fund slips just slightly to 4.250%.
I can live with that.

Yeah, I was surprised it didn't slip more than it did, but I agree that's just fine.
Gonna hang in with my move yesterday to go 15%C / 5%S / 80%G, and hope it wasn't a mistake. So far so good for the first day.

The markets look a bit extended to me, tricky time to move money. I'm right behind you though, 2025 is my final year.

With China’s ban on exporting (to the US) minerals gallium, germanium and antimony. Throw in the possible collapse of Frances government on the heels of Germany gov turmoil and the job openings report, today could be interesting.

And to add to the chaos, South Korea has declared martial law.

Would be nice to see my small I Fund Position pay some nickels today. (Picked up about 30 cents a share yesterday)

I Fund nose dived in the afternoon, still treading water though.

Whatever Jerome Powell said took the Russell 2000 small caps down with the I-fund.

There are times I dislike that dude.

 

[tsptalk]

OK, the market is brushing it off. Small caps and the I-fund are racing higher into the close.

 

[WorkFE]

The I fund is creeping towards my highest purchase point. I will need to make a choice before next week. Maybe let it ride another week.

 

[WorkFE]

The I Fund pulled a hamstring on Friday and came up a bit short. I will ride it for a little longer, see how it goes.
