"So🐿️, my nephew wants to 'get involved' in the markets. Can you help?"
Many of us have had that call. A rodent's response. "Dear (aspiring) Stan".
This is VERY different from the normal 🐿️ output. Given that I suspect that many of you will be with younger relatives over the long Memorial Day weekend I am hoping that the timing works well for it.

Delboy’s Message
Any of us that have spent enough time in the markets have had the call. It goes along the following lines: “my son/daughter/nephew/niece/god-child [delete as applicable] wants to get involved in the markets”. Typically this aspiring Stan Druckenmiller is about 19 years old and may have just had a hot run in crypto/Tesla/DollarYen [again, delete as applicable].
I received the following WhatsApp message from an old friend the other day. We shall call him Delboy, in honor of Trotter’s Independent Trading.
