    Oh, god, don’t trade on anything he says. The trades have already happened, they could be lining up a short right after selling their longs, or vice versa, and then he’ll say something else to send it in the opposite direction.

      Yeah, usually that’s true of anything you could trade on. Either the facts are already priced in or the irrationality could last longer than any available options contract (like with the AI bubble).

      If I had been trading at certain critical moments recently I would have made a profit, though.
