These infantile campuses have a rendezvous with adult accountability, both public and governmental. And they won’t like what is soon coming.

CNN legal expert Elie Honig on Michael Cohen's admission that he stole $60,000 from the Trump Organization:
"They gave him a free pass. He committed larceny, it's a higher degree of a felony than what Donald Trump is charged with. Yet they gave Michael Cohen a free pass even though he's now admitted that he stole what amounts to $60,000. It goes to his credibility, it goes to his relationship with the D.A."

Here's a quick tell that RRN is Still Fake and Ghey;
ALL of the ships that might have a rope thick enough to not snap upon stress from that size of carcass are fully chartered up and at sea.
That and the oil rig count hasn't gone up enough to signal the scheduled need for that particular use.
New US Treasury strategy targets crypto scams and real estate money laundering
Officials touted upcoming moves to close regulatory loopholes that could expose the United States’ financial system to evolving threats.
The U.S. Treasury Department will seek to operationalize use of the country’s new beneficial ownership information database by law enforcement and finalize moves to clamp down on real estate money laundering over the next two years, according to the latest national illicit finance strategy.

Quite the contrary, more like Menedez donors, as an example, in the DR.
Menendez. Grrr.
And you better fucking understand long or short the basis. And "Cheapest To Deliver". Otherwise you'll jess be handing over yer cash to someone else at delivery time.
Yuuuuge laundering of illicit cash washed through sham real estate transaction, particularly in places like San Antonio (Beto? Raul Grijvalas? Nahhh.).
>The hedge funds using massive leverage to buy the derivatives of treasuries (on both sides as less cash needed for futures) and short the futures and the difference in price can be a few pennies or it can be fractions of pennies but if you do it enough times you'll see how it starts to add up to a big profit if it goes your way.
>
>However you need stable rates over the life of the bills (in this example) because you are borrowing on a short term basis. When those insurance companies, pension funds and asset managers actually buy straight up US Treasuries they go for the new ones and this is important because those are a lot more liquid than the futures/derivatives but also have a negative impact on value if sold en masse to EVERYONE who owns them and are nowhere near this trade.
>
>Easy peasy for the hedge funds right? Not so fast as what happens when you have rates rise up (value of both bill and futures contract drop) dramatically? You get a crescendo of sales of both-the Bills AND the futures that were supposed to be held to maturity to realize the small gains so suddenly those have to be sold at losses. <
You HAD to write this part where it shows you as the alarmist who bit on someone else's hook and have NO IDEA how the Basis Trade works.
Yes, I'm ripping you for being an alarmist and dumbass. We have been through this before. Don't write about this again, as it doesn't matter whether or not you're using cash T-Bills, T-Notes, or T-Bonds (or Italian 10yr Notes, too) The basis is a HEDGED trade and requires lower margin minimums, depending o the Clearing Firm, and it is ALWAYS a leveraged trade, because Futures. Math only works on the inside. Been doin this for a very long time, Zoomie.
Please hold….
FTSAH, Seth's at 306.

306/ So it’s for that reason we have to talk about Donald Trump getting performance anxiety as he contemplates his defense this week—and possibly making mistakes he might not have made were he and the jury not facing the somewhat odd, artificial court schedule they both now do.

Discussion of Treasury Futures Positions Across Different Investor Types
Treasury Borrowing Advisory Committee January 30th, 2024
>>“According to Treasury futures positioning data, asset manager long positions and leveraged fund short positions have increased significantly. Please discuss the factors that could be driving this dynamic. What are the reasons for asset managers to prefer the Treasury futures market over the cash market for their duration needs? What type of activity does the leveraged short positioning reflect; for example, to what extent could this be cash-futures basis trading activity? What are important factors to consider when monitoring changes in cash-futures basis positions?"<<
