Two of the biggest names in finance signed my book.
- Olivia Voz
Two of the most influential names in finance signed the same book in my collection.
That signature at the top is Jamie Dimon. CEO of JPMorgan. The face of traditional Wall Street.
That second signature belongs to Burton Malkiel.
He wrote A Random Walk Down Wall Street. You probably know it. It's the book that convinced an entire generation to just buy the index and go home because you cannot beat the market.
Full stop.
Two of the biggest voices in finance, signing the same copy of A Treasury of Wall Street Wisdom.
Both signatures are cool. Dimon's is honestly the best I've ever seen outside of my own.
But here's the part nobody is going to believe.
Trading is an art, not a science.
I trade two ways, and Malkiel's inscription describes both of them perfectly.
For day trading, I read charts. Period. Crowd psychology, key levels, the zones I've built my whole system around.
The gravitational pull of price toward levels that matter. That work is mine. I built the framework, I run it live every day, and the only thing that confirms or kills a trade is what the tape is doing right in front of me.
For my bigger ideas, the ones I'm willing to hold for months? Those start somewhere else entirely.
They start with my network.
I worked on the New York Stock Exchange floor for years.
The traders I bumped shoulders with are still in this business. Some retired, some fled to Palm Beach, but they still talk.
They still see things you won't hear about on CNBC or Fox Business. And they still call me when something interesting is happening in their corner of the world.
I call them my Palm Beachers, and they have brought me some of the best ideas I have ever traded.
Here is one of them.
The Receipt
On July 31, 2024, I posted a TikTok calling AST SpaceMobile a $50 stock.
My firstborn.
ASTS was trading somewhere between $15 and $19 at the time. Nobody was talking about it.
The idea didn't come from a chart. It came from one of my sources telling me this satellite-to-cell-phone story was about to break wide open.
I checked the chart, the setup was there, and I posted the call.
Fast forward to end of 2025. I named ASTS my top idea for 2026 and raised my target to $150.
The stock is at $128 today. Up over 76% year to date. Inching toward all-time highs.
That is not me beating the index because I'm smarter than Burton Malkiel. That's me doing exactly what he warned about. The traditional framework would have told you not to touch a tiny pre-revenue satellite company. My network said look closer. The chart told me when to act.
What My Network Just Brought Me
Same skill, same process, fresh idea.
I told Mark on State of the Market this morning that SpaceX is going to act like a vampire when it finally hits the public markets.
The whole market gets pulled toward it. Money flows in, the broader market sells off for a few days, and the rest of the space sector, including names I love and have ridden hard, takes a temporary hit before bouncing back hard.
It's the same exact pattern Nvidia ran two years ago. Everyone rushed into Nvidia, and the broader market actually sold off for a few days because of it.
SpaceX is going to do that.
My trade: buy the space plays now and sell right before the SpaceX debut.
This idea came from my network.
A source who stays anonymous, and I'm going to respect that. But I would not be calling it on a livestream this week if I weren't confident in where it came from.
That is exactly the point of what Malkiel wrote in my book.
Traditional paradigms can fail in a rapidly changing world.
The way you keep up is by knowing the people who see it changing in real time, and by having the chart work to tell you when their idea is actually a trade.
The inscription is not just a cute note on a book.
It's the playbook.
Rock On,
