Mets took the dodgers to the woodshed.

And as much as it pains me to say Tyrese Hailburton is becoming a real star. Another game one clutch winner. He’s giving Jordan, Kobe and BIG SHOT ROB! Some competition

To hear for yourself start at minute 34. 


* STRK —  offers $8 per share dividend year paid out quarterly. Can convert to MSTR shares at 10 to one. Once the stock price of MSTR reaches $1k Meaning 10 shares of STRK will give you 1 share of MSTR. Key demographic income earning 40 year olds. Gives downside protection with capped upside long term hold 10-20 years. Fiat savings account with a call option on MSTR.

* STRF — pays $10 per share dividend year mostly for institutional investors. Think of this like a fiat savings account. Instead of parking your money at JP Morgan you can buy this and hold this. Not much risk but sensitive to interest rates. As rates go down this product can become very attractive.

* STRD — pays $10 per share dividend annually. But goes after the junk bond market. if market conditions get worse strategy can pause the payment 

Goal is to get 1% of fixed income. 

### Things to consider 

Before you call me a fiat maxi shitcoiner consider these points below 

*  Strategy is over capitalized $60B in assets (Bitcoin) to $10B in debt 60/10. 

* These products are only open to about 10% of fix income asset allocators. Most can’t buy them until they get rated by a bond company like Moody’s who recently downgraded US debt

* If you missed the MSTR run up here you have an opportunity to front run fixed income which is a major market ($300T to $600T)

* As long as Bitcoin has a dollar exchange rate someone who makes more fiat can outstack you period! Only 2.1 quadrillion sats out there. Every sat you let pass by is another person opportunity!

YOU are the Dead Internet

I’m so confused. I thought interest was always usury at any discount rate! 

From friendship to public war Trump and Elon Musk were great allies.

Definitely disappointed but what did we expect?  Seems no way out of this madness 

Elon vs Trump feud summed up in a -13% on the day!!!

Anyone Cop and Circle Internet Group (CRCL) Today at IPO Price?

Cje95

I had a chance to buy the IPO offering on Robinhood but I let my morals come before my pocket book.

Then I got FOMO when I saw blackrock and ARK were about to back up the brinks truck and load up on shares but it was too late. 

Congrats on your fiat gain but USDC is only on shit chains and rumor has it Allaire is behind all the tether FUD and tried to create a regulatory moat. 

But I firmly believe that Jack Mallers and tether will be directly competing with USDC 

>Project stress rose again in April with the private sector nearing a multi-year high in abandonments, according to the latest data from Cincinnati-based ConstructConnect.

>`The Project Stress Index, a measure of construction projects that have been paused, abandoned or have a delayed bid date, climbed 1.5% in April. The jump marks a 16% increase over 2021 baseline levels, said Devin Bell, associate economist at ConstructConnect.`

>“Stress on private projects has largely diverged from the public sector,” said Bell. `“The private sector has been very quick to feel the shock of recent changes to the country’s economic outlook,` with on-hold and abandonment activity up sharply in recent months. Conditions within the public sector remain far more muted.”

>The April increase largely stemmed from a 4.6% rise in delayed bid activity and a 1.5% uptick in abandonments, said Bell. Meanwhile, on-hold activity dipped 2%, offering only modest relief.

>`Over the past 12 months, private projects placed on hold jumped 40%, while abandonments ticked up 14.1%.`

>“Abandonment activity continues to be a major force within the construction climate,” said Bell, contrasting public and private jobs. “Both sectors experienced increases in abandonments in April with the private sector nearing a multi-year high. High interest rates, potentially raised material costs and a tumultuous labor market are sapping the confidence of prospective owners and developers.”

>Public construction continues to show greater stability, according to the data. The number of public projects placed on hold dropped 29% year over year, while abandonments remained essentially flat. 

>Nevertheless, the overall index remains 6.5% lower than it was at this time last year, suggesting construction stress levels are still below their early 2024 peak.

## My Thoughts 💭 

Yikes this data looks scary. Federal public spending and the AI data center seems to be saving the construction market! 

Private delays, abandonments drive project stress higher
