Raw direction-aware returns on public statements — long calls credited when the price rose, shorts when it fell, shorts capped at −100% — in a rising market this mostly measures who was long, not who has skill. Returns run from the stance date; calls are rarely closed publicly, so fixed 90-day / 180-day / 1-year horizons are used. A horizon shows only once it has fully matured, and only at 5+ scored stances. “% correct” is the share of those scored calls whose direction-aware return was positive at the horizon — in a rising market a bullish call is correct by default, so read it beside the market, not alone.

Scored calls

Every tracked call with at least one matured horizon: the rows behind the Returns line above. A dash is a horizon that has not matured yet.

2026-10-28 Big Tech neutral Bloomberg TV (uncut) · uncut_tv
AI equities should remain choppy because earnings will not resolve whether heavy capital spending is justified, while additional Fed hikes would pressure long-duration technology valuations.
“I think it's going to remain choppy from here.”

2026-10-09 INFRASTRUCTURE, UTILITIES, WASTE MANAGEMENT bullish Bloomberg TV (uncut) · uncut_tv
These sectors can pass through higher input costs to customers, insulating margins in an inflationary high-oil-price environment unlike consumer-sensitive sectors

Bloomberg TV uncut 2026-10-09 08:39 ET (30 min)
2026-05-28 SPX bullish Bloomberg Open Interest · video
