"There is a lot of uncertainty right now and you got to be nimble. So I'm holding more cash nowadays in T-bills, short duration treasuries, so I can earn a yield and just see what the market does."

The macro environment is "confused" due to the tug-of-war between deteriorating fundamentals (AI ROI issues, debt) and the supportive Passive Bid.

LONG (as a portfolio allocation, not a primary growth driver). Hyperinflation eroding purchasing power of cash rapidly.
