Donald Trump's trades

There are many transactions for municipal bonds and Treasury bills, and you will see many disclosed trades from August 2026

I read an interesting study on token reuse and caching of content

We know post-task workflows are editable, graph-based views of what an agent already did, so I really liked what Zekun Wu, Xinru Wang, @rockpang6, Chenglong Wang and Anna Feit recently accomplished.

Siri AI FINALLY ships September 14 with iOS 27 and keeps its beta label after launch. English only at first, with French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish in October.

The only immediate constraint is the caps, but I am still excited to see how it goes.

Deploying trading strategies is now one-click simple. Autotrade makes it easy to execute on platforms like Alpaca or Hyperliquid. The momentum and market reversal engines are particularly straightforward to get started with. #trading #algotrading

Filtering by trade count significantly impacts win rates. For 955 trades, the average is 91%. Limiting to 20 trades reduces this slightly, and 30 trades brings it down further. #trading #data

One strategy for Visa, traded 52 times over 5 years, shows a high % win rate, turning $100K into $170K. Past performance is promising, but not guaranteed. #trading #finance

Silence is the easiest way to start with the Market Reversal Engine (MRE). It signals oversold/overbought conditions short-term. Yesterday, Solana showed oversold at $73, while Bitcoin, Ethereum, and altcoins signaled overbought.

On Hyperliquid, 533 whales with a 94% win rate and 30+ trades have netted over six figures. Hard not to pay attention to their moves. Clicking through shows their individual performance. #trading #crypto

Tracking whales on popular decentralized exchanges reveals a surprising stat: ~955 wallets average a 90% win rate, with total P&L exceeding $10 billion. #DeFi #trading

I am hosting a working session with @FirmAdapt on Monday, August 3 at 12:00 PM ET for business owners.

The premise: automation spend usually lands on the wrong process first, which is why the tools end up getting blamed.

Congressional trade disclosures, insider Form 4 filings, and on-chain whale positioning can all be unified, and almost nobody reads them as one dataset.

I am walking through how on Tuesday, August 4 at 12:00 PM ET with @Blockcircle.

Screening one stock for #Shariah compliance means pulling revenue mix, debt, and cash ratios out of filings, one company at a time.

I am hosting a free workshop Tuesday, August 4 at 1:00 PM ET on doing it against five standards at once.

Laguna S is an 118B mixture-of-experts model that activates only 8B parameters per token

This is definitely worth studying because Poolside took it from training start to launch in just eight weeks! Let that sink in

If you work in sales, business development, recruiting, real estate, go-to-market growth, etc., then you know contact data pricing punishes you twice, once for the record and again for the bounce.

Microsoft runs over 100 AI agents against the Windows codebase. I love the way it's actually designed; it's definitely worth studying

Indirect Prompt Injections should be viewed differently after listening to Zico Kolter and Matt Fredrikson

The part that stuck with me is that this isn't cybersecurity with AI bolted on, these new agents are introducing an entirely new class of information security vulnerabilities.

Spent some time digging into IBM's #CUGA harness and the part that fascinates me is how much open-source agent code is just plumbing you rebuild every project.

Tool adapters, state tracking, streaming to a UI, recovery logic, etc.

I keep having the same thought when building new features and it's that text optimization itself is becoming more sample-efficient than weight optimization

This was a very interesting thread on the implications of large-scale test time computational tasks

TLDR > benchmark scores are basically losing their meaning because model capability isn't a fixed number as much as before.

I just ran a controlled experiment to quickly gauge the efficacy of off the shelf AI, and here is the result 💀

I was seeing this test and I’m surprised that on June 1, 2026, this is where we are at, we are still very, very early

Alpha Hunter Suite surfaced a Solana launch this week that scored cleanly across the full alpha criteria stack, including holder distribution, liquidity at launch, contract verification, and the risk scan.

We just shipped a Claygent alternative inside @BetterEnrichX!

Bring your own OpenAI key, point it at any model (4o mini works great for most use cases), and the agent will search the web, visit pages, enrich key fields, and write back anything you need for prospecting, etc.

The Macroeconomic Risk Scorecard runs seven independent recession probability models in parallel and combines them into one composite read on the cycle.

This is very helpful for multiple reasons, a short post about the benefits
