BUZZBERG Alpha Score combines three things: realized average return, confidence in the sample size, idea volume, and speaker reputation. Speakers with only a few calls are pulled closer to the platform average; speakers with many evaluated ideas keep more of their own return. Reputation only boosts: 5.0 or lower is neutral, while scores above 5 add weight. Scores are normalized to 0-100; 100 is best. Read the FAQ

Short bonds on persistent inflation
Persistent inflation above 3.5% and soon above 4%, structural damage from energy price spikes, and lack of meaningful decline in inflation until back half of the year support short bond positioning. This was the highest conviction trade over the last few weeks, executed via TLT puts.
