Continue reading →: Bitcoin’s Paper Market: How Futures & Options Can Push Price Down… and Then Rip It UpBitcoin’s paper market When people say “paper Bitcoin,” they usually mean financial exposure to BTC that isn’t the coin itself: futures, perpetual swaps, options, structured products, and sometimes synthetic claims inside exchanges. None of this is inherently “bad.” It’s how big markets add liquidity and let hedgers manage risk. But…

Continue reading →: Tesla’s Q4 + FY2025 print and what it does to the investment thesisThe headline isn’t “a car company quarter.” It’s a capital allocation quarter. The most important line from this whole update is that Tesla is explicitly telling you 2026 is a “huge investment year” with CapEx expected to be in excess of $20B .

NFA CES keynote AMD just used the CES keynote to make a simple point: it’s no longer a parts vendor, it’s a platform company for AI at rack scale, client, and edge,…

Continue reading →: Tesla At ~$1.5T: Is This Just an FSD Coin Flip Or A Portfolio Of Real Options?
The bear case sounds clean: TSLA’s current valuation is “too tied” to unsupervised FSD / Robotaxi, and that outcome is basically a coin flip.

Continue reading →: The “500 Robotaxis vs. 3–5 Cars” Debate Is the Wrong Fight – Here’s the Right Way to Underwrite Tesla’s Robotaxi StoryIf you’ve been anywhere near FinTwit lately, you’ve seen some version of this argument: “Musk said there would be 500 robotaxis in Austin by year-end. If reality is 3–5 vehicles, that’s not a rounding error, it’s a categorical failure.” It sounds damning. It’s also the kind of claim that goes…
Hi Fren,
Pepe Maltese
I used to trade inside the machine. Now I just raid it.
I publish two high-conviction setups daily — one momentum, one turnaround — filtered through tape structure, volume shifts, and misaligned narratives.
Some of these turn into full trades. A few evolve into deeper stories. The rest get cut.
This isn’t education. This is intelligence.
I don’t run ads. I don’t sell dreams. I track price, watch structure, and call bullshit when the story breaks.
Follow the setups. Fade the noise. Stick it to the man.
