Are people finding success in other careers outside of tech or are we all just waiting for that rebound. The optics do not look good for 2026.

Why do you think 2026 will not be good?

I’m curious about this too! Ai will change things but it will also open new doors

Tech has slowed, but it has bounced back before. The rebound may take time, but I do not think this is the end of tech careers.

I agree, it kind of feels like it’s bouncing back. Stay resilient, stay flexible and stay positive and good things will come your way

Long time in the making; but we finally sold off from our 50% HWB short. We had two tests at the 3400 level, getting as high as 3420 today before the sell off. Momentum and pessimism over lack of stimulus could take us to the 3107 target quickly, nearly a 10 percent decline over the next month. Stay short my friends. It's going to get bumpy.
