Portfolio Pursuit

From the jaws of victory

March 07, 2025

Another day where I won the morning and lost the afternoon. Dang.

The sell-off this morning was successful for me but I did not know that both Trump and Powell were going to give remarks around the mid-day, so the news over the wire caught me totally off-guard. As such I lost on some of my Tesla (TLSA) puts as everything turned suddenly around and didn't come back down.

I did pick up some more AMD and Shopify (SHOP) on the dip and was able leverage the V-shape shift to put some longer-term bets and new covered calls in place which I am happy with.

By my math I am ending the week in the red. I was on track for a green week until I got blind-sided by the tariff roller-coaster today, so will try to stay much more focused next week on pulling out gains on the open, turning off my computer, and walking into the woods until the following day's session.
