Re:Ask HN: Is the market bad, or am I having the worst luck ... by benreesman on Saturday July 29, 2023 @01:46PM (#36922657)
Eh, I mean I guess ultimately I’m just kind of a nerd.

I will say that understanding a modicum of finance (I’m certainly no RenTech quant!) is basically a prerequisite for understanding politics, sociology, war, energy, technology, pretty much everything.

One doesn’t need a ton, but being able to give or take eyeball whether the market believes e.g. Powell is kinda table stakes.

And it’s just insane this isn’t taught broadly. I learned even just my modicum mostly by improbable random chance.
