Most charts start at inauguration, but since Trump’s policies might already be priced in, performance since election day might be better – alas ...

It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up.

Ukraine is Europe!
We stand by Ukraine.

We will step up our support to Ukraine so that they can continue to fight back the agressor.

Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.

I feel sick. We are witnessing America betray Europe and its closest allies. Shameful and deeply concerning.

Short note on provision of "raw" data in replication packages. "Raw" are data files exactly as downloaded from original source. Not renamed, not converted, not made prettier. All that is important, and is the next step, for which you provide code (or instructions). But "raw" is as "raw as it gets".

So, #Musk posts:
"Please post a bit more positive, beautiful or informative content on this platform"
Just a few hours after he tells people who disagree with him:
"Take a big step back and FUCK YOURSELF in the face."

We have a new publication reviewing 50+ studies with financial professionals as experimental participants. 💼🏦💵
Our meta-analyses show that bankers are particularly risk-loving 🎰📈, but evidence of them being great forecasters is rather scarce. 🔮🤔
💥Just published in the Journal of Banking & Finance!

Narrative reviews, meta-analyses, procedural tips. That's what you find in this guide to experimenting with financial professionals.

A heartfelt thank you to @chrhuber.bsky.social & Christian for this rewarding adventure. I've learned a lot!🙏

When Elon Musk bought Twitter a year ago, he wrote, “Twitter obviously cannot become a free-for-all hellscape.” A year later, Mr. Musk’s platform has become exactly that.
