Is Buying the Dip a Science?

from TLDR · host matthew karasz, devin friedman, claire porter robbins, jared sullivan

Of all the tasty money news this week, the most satisfying was the TACO trade. (For the uninitiated, that’s “Trump Always Chickens Out.”) On this week’s TLDR, we look at the art and science behind the move — and whether its popularity might spell its demise. Plus, we do a deep dive into FinTok archetypes to help decode the personal finance advice proliferating on social media. And, we learn about the remote working scheme that… helped fund the North Korean regime?! We’ve got it all.This episode was hosted by Devin Friedman, former hedgefunder Matthew Karasz, journalist Claire Porter Robbins and author Jared Sullivan.
