Happy Holidays & Merry Christmas

Happy Holidays & Merry Christmas


Dear Clients, Partners, Fellow Navigators of Geopolitical, Economy & Market chaos, and many of you Friends,

As 2024 comes to a close, I want to raise a toast to surviving another year of some market surprises, Fed "adjustments", and MSM headlines that had us questioning if reality is now a simulation (is it still really a question though?).

Whether it was inflation debates, interest rate ping-pong, or the occasional geopolitical curveball, you stuck with me—and just for that, y'all deserve a glass of really good champagne !

Here’s to 2025: may your investments soar, your risks stay calculated, and your coffee (or Champagne) budget remain under control.

Let’s make it a year of thriving, not just surviving (although this is a critical part of the investment process !).

Wishing you joy, success, and many market opportunities.

Joris @ Quantaraxia


My personal note: Champagne flutes are for snobs who want to see and show bubbles rising to the top. Prefer a wider glass to help your Champagne expand and deliver all its flavor. Thank me later.

Personally, I prefer coupes. The legend has it that the first coupe for Champagne was designed from the chest of the Marchioness of Pompadour, a favorite of Louis XV. Others pretend it was Marie-Antoinette's. Nonetheless just the thought of it makes Champagne better ...
